Wonderful cabin by a beautiful creek! We really enjoyed our stay here. I wish the instructions to find the cabin were a little better - there were no numbers on the cabin so it was hard to know if you drove far enough. We actually drove past it the first time by mistake. However, I would stay here again! The location was great and made for a perfect peaceful mountain vacation.

The property was great the creek view was wonderful. It is an older property and in the woods, that being said it was a little damp musty smelling but it is because of the mountains and dampness it’s hard to get rid of.
We came to celebrate my 50th birthday and have a great week-end with family with grandkids. The creek was a blast and so many different area's to be that you could be off and have a quiet spot anywhere. Peaceful and was a perfect stay. Would love to come back and stay again.

We wanted to disconnect and spend time together and enjoy nature and this was the perfect place. The creek is right outside your back door, and it's so peaceful and relaxing. We spent more time outside than inside, which was the goal!! It has all the amenities you need and then some. We would stay here again!
