This is an expensive property and home, very well maintained, easily able to accommodate a large family group. The large inground pool with slide and a diving platform was fantastic. The young children in our group spent the majority of their time in the pool! The adults enjoyed the pool just as much. Just as great was the tennis court with Pickleball area and basketball court. Our group also made good use of the game room with billiards, ping-pong, foosball. This is a very fine oasis with something for everyone to do!

David met us at the property and he was early. He showed us around and demonstrated how to use pool equipment. He also stopped by mid morning the next day to see if we had any questions. Both hosts communicated quickly when we had questions. This is one of the best properties our family has ever rented. A great place with stuff to do in all kinds of weather and for all ages. The pool and nice kitchen/dining setup were highlights.

Becky and Dave are excellent hosts. We had the best time. The 3 six year olds brought their bikes and had the best time pretending the front driveway was a race track. If you want to make great memories with your family I would highly recommend this house.

Awesome Stay at Blue Creek!

We had the best time staying here. My family of 20 stayed for 3 days and this place was perfect for our trip. The house was large enough to accommodate everyone comfortably and we had everything we needed. The pool area is awesome - everyone had an amazing time from the 2 year old to my 70 year old dad. A great place for kids. Communication was great and the owners were friendly and very helpful. Hope to come back again some day!

Awesome place!

We had a great vacation here! There were plenty of activities for all of the kids ranging from 3-23. One of the things we liked best was the covered area by the pool, it was always being used. The tennis court was a bonus & it was nice you could see it from the pool area. Our whole family enjoyed it & we would defiantly come back!

Family Get Away

This was the perfect place for our 10th annual four generation family reunion. The house and property were beautiful and just perfect for our weekend. I love that all of the outdoor activities were centrally located so my 98 year old grandma could be a part of everything going on with her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. Amazing property!

We had a fantastic stay. Plenty of space for our large group. The pool and tennis courts were a big hits, and amazingly, no problem with mosquitoes. The kitchen had everything we needed for preparing meals, and the common areas were delightful spots for congregating. We definitely recommend this property and we plan to visit again!

Our family was very impressed with everything at this beautiful resort. The room to spread out, the games and the quiet setting were awesome. And the pool was great!
