Holiday getaway
Great cabin, the property (deck, creek, fire pit) were wonderful! The inside living and kitchen is definitely small and cozy but the cabin has everything we needed! We loved cooking on the Traeger! Our kids loved the space in the basement to run around and play. Perfect for a small family. Will book again!

We had a wonderful stay at Creekside! The property was absolutely beautiful, and had everything we were hoping for in a vacation spot. So many details were thought through, and it made our stay here so very relaxing. We hope to return again next year!

A Hidden Gem!!
Wow! The pictures don’t do this property justice!! Every detail has been thought out!! The beds are SUPER a comfortable!! The towels are high quality, and the kitchen is well stocked for cooking! The outdoors are AHMAZING from the fire pit, to sitting near the creek, to the hot tub!! I have already rebooked as this place was so quiet and serene!! The only thing to be aware of is the driveway is steep to get up to the house, so make sure you have good tires! My mom struggled getting her car up, (RAV 4) but her tires weren’t great! Never the less, it was a great cabin! I VRBO A LOT and this was one of my favorite rentals!!
