Great stay!

We had a wonderful time at the secluded property. We enjoyed the marina, and got beautiful photos there. Boat ramp we were able to use at the Marina, which is next to the house. The house was very nicely set up, with all the amenities needed, extra towels, linens, blankets, kitchen items. It was as if we were home! Thank you so much for allowing us to stay at your home!

Excellent host, beautiful creek and quiet surroundings

Maria was a wonderful host! It was our first visit to the Oriental area. Life take a slower pace there, but there’s more than enough to see and do over a long weekend. Keep in mind that the location is remote, but if that’s what you’re looking for, then it could be a great place for you. Creek was beautiful.

Wonderful cottage, in the nature

Purpose of our stay was to rest from work, to fish, and relax. The place offers- great fishing deck (that is in shade! due boat covered dock) kayaks to discover the neighborhood and a nice big green lot- where our dog could run. We loved the stay and highly recommend it. Thank you.

Had a great time. Peaceful!!

The rooms were large. The house was clean. Very peaceful and quiet. The traffic was minimum. Large yard and the fishing was fun. We caught a bunch of shrimp with our cast net. Definitely an enjoyable weekend.

Hidden Gem!!!!

One of the most relaxing vacations of my life! After almost 3 months without a day off I needed a quiet weekend to recharge. The Coffee Creek Cottage checked all my boxes! I rented it for Fri & Sat night. Upon entering & opening the windows I knew that wouldn't be long enough. Messaged Maria, who had been great, friendly and responsive during the reservation process, she easily added a night to my reservation, and I was able to settle up with VBRO all in a few minutes. My cat and I enjoyed the breeze and birds chirping from the rocking chairs on the covered porch, I caught a fish for dinner Saturday, and enjoyed the clawfoot tub. Kitchen was fully stocked with pots/pans/spices. Not having to worry about linens, towels, toilet paper, dish soap made it even more relaxing to be able to pack light! The pictures are deceiving, you don't just get a creek water view, it's a 180 degree view of the creek and nearby river, so even better!!! Only drawbacks I found were while they provided fishing rods, there were no sharp fillet knifes so I butchered it!!! I poached it so presentation didn't bother me, it was tasty :) Also the bed was too firm for my preference. But why would you want to sleep in here! As a 39yr woman and her cat I felt so relaxed and safe here. May have seen half dozen vehicles in the 3 days I was there. So charming.. only thing missing to make it a Nicholas Sparks novel was the strong misunderstood male lol! I can't wait to revisit CCC in the future!

October in Merritt

We absolutely had a blast enjoying our short stay on Coffee Creek. The fishing was good, the towns were quaint and just enough local amenities that you weren’t completely backwoods. The rental is beautifully crafted and made our stay feel extremely luxurious.

Oriental visit

We enjoyed our stay. Everything was as advertised, clean and the kitchen was well stocked. If I was forced to make a suggestion, it would be to have a ladder added to the dock. In getting in and out of the boat with dogs, I kept planning what I would do if I or the dog fell in because the shore has sharp rocks and barnacles. The house is a delight and we would stay again.

Fabulous getaway

We had a lovely time, house is perfect and the area was grand. Kayaking was great fun. Pupsters really enjoyed the open grass and the dock. We will be returning. House exactly as described.
