We loved our stay at the creekside cabin. The creek, the fire pit, and the cozy atmosphere were exactly the unplugged break we needed. Alicia was so generous with local information and a fantastic local hike recommendation. We'd love to stay again!

We loved staying in this cabin, playing in the creek, and hiking nearby on our short weekend getaway. It is very thoughtfully stocked and had lots of games, books and dvds for kids to enjoy. We really had no complaints at all and would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a cozy cabin in the woods!

Perfect getaway for the hubs and me. Very relaxing, nice to unplug and enjoy each other. Kitchen stocked with everything we needed to prepare and cook our meals. We lost power the first night for 2.5 hours, we had our solar powered light string that came in handy, we played cards, talked, laughed and enjoyed this much needed time away and together. I highly recommend to everyone to take the mini-vacation with your spouse here at Creekside Cabin.

It was a very cute, quaint cottage off the beaten path. The living area was small with only a loveseat for seating. There were three of us so we brought a rocking chair in off the porch for a third seat. I loved it

This was the perfect spot for a weekend getaway. Remote, but not TOO remote - close enough to outdoor activities. The house was equipped with everything we needed for comfort and convenience. Lots of personal touches in the home.

The cabin was adorable and cozy and the area around it was gorgeous. It was too cold for much time around the firepit, but it was relaxing to just read and play board games. We enjoyed hiking at Crabtree Falls. It was a perfect Thanksgiving getaway.
