This property was perfect for our family, The hosts were so prompt to respond back to us if we ever needed anything, and were very helpful in everything. The pool was so warm and the perfect temperature. Everything was so clean and in order, I cannot think of one bad thing to say about this beautiful place!
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.
This trip was my family’s third time here and we’ve enjoyed the stay very much each time! It’s a beautiful secluded place and great for kids and relaxing!

Kara - Thank you for choosing Blue Creek again! Repeat guests are the best compliment - don't forget to reach out and give us your thoughts on how we can make your stay even better.
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.
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!

Alison - thank you for choosing to spend your holiday at Blue Creek. It was our pleasure to host you and we hope you get to come again someday soon!!
We loved our weekend at Blue Creek! Between shooting hoops, pickle ball, and swimming in the great pool, this place is as fun as it gets! The hosts were great!
A perfect weekend getaway home with loads of fun activities to do. Pool volleyball, pickleball, pool table, basketball court, tennis, etc. This place has it all. The host were helpful on any questions we had and I’m already recommending this place to others. WI’ll be back soon.
Our family had a great time. With 9 adults and 11 kids (ranging from 1 to 15 years old) everyone had a blast. So much to do to keep everyone entertained. We look forward to visiting again.
Had a terrific time with my tennis loving girlfriends for a short stay...liked it so much that we'll be returning later in the summer with our families! Becky & David were super great to work with and everything was as expected.

Nicole - we always say that the greatest compliment is a repeat guest. So thank you for choosing Blue Creek for your friends AND your family! We look forward to seeing you again!
In our opinion, the property was immaculate. The accommodations were exceptional for our group ages 1 - 71. We would highly recommend this property for an immediate family get-away.
This was an awesome place to stay, there was nothing that we needed. We had a family reunion (15 guests) and everyone was beyond pleased. The pictures are right on.

We are so happy you had a wonderful time. Thank you for choosing Blue Creek for your reunion. We hope to see you again some day!
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!
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!

When you are happy - we are happy! Thank you for choosing Blue Creek. We would love to see you all again someday. And hats off to grandma who got to celebrate with all of you!
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!

We are so happy to hear this. The absolute best compliment is knowing you want to return!
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! Plenty of seating around the pool, plenty of linens and towels. What more could a family want? Thank you McCartney's for our fantastic weekend!
