Gorgeous property close to Sky Retreat

We came for a wedding at Sky Retreat and made a long weekend out of the trip. The property is gorgeous and dogs had a blast. Cabin was clean and well stocked. The screened in porch is amazing! We enjoyed our time at the house so much. My only suggestions for improvement, and mind you, I’m still giving 5 stars for everything, is to have one of the king beds not be memory foam/squishy, for us older folk with back issues or stomach sleepers. And, consider replacing the small main couch. None of this bothered us to any degree. I simply can’t sleep on memory foam well. Thanks to Paul for his amazing hospitality and to Ricky and team for a super clean cabin! We hope to return later this summer!

Beautiful escape to the woods

My family and I rented this cabin for a long weekend and it was the perfect getaway. The cabin feels secluded and is set back from the road so our child and dog could play in the creek without worry. There are acres of trails to explore and the sounds of nature were so peaceful. Trips into Boone were easy and we had a great time. Would absolutely rent again.

Beautiful Cabin with Everything You Need!

Our family had an amazing stay at Shady Creek!! Cabin was well stocked with everything you need. We loved the privacy and space for our daughter and dog to run around. They especially loved the creek! Plus, the cabin itself was beautiful and extremely clean with comfortable beds, which is key!! We will definitely stay again!

Peace and Quiet!

Probably one of the top 3 places I’ve rented! If you are looking for peace and quiet and privacy to just chill, then this is the place for you! No neighbors in sight, barely any traffic noise ever, place was great to get away from the hustle bustle. House is well equipped and kids loved the creek and hot tub!

Another great stay at Shady Creek!

This was our second year staying at Shady Creek and we were not disappointed! We had another relaxing and peaceful visit to the cabin. Our daughter and dog loved playing in the creek and exploring the property. Plus the new gazebo is a wonderful addition! We enjoyed sitting by the fire pit and listening to the creek.

Exceeded Expectations

We had a wonderful time at Shady Creek! The property was clean and inviting. The creek was fun to play in and the recent addition of a wading pond was great for the kids. This property was very private and allowed many opportunities for exploration. Would definitely book this property again.

We had 11 nights from 08/05/23 at this excellent property

If you enjoy the outdoors, walking around a lovely garden, near to a lovely creek, sitting on the patio by the fire pit watching the stars then this place will take some beating. The property itself was also lovely, not huge but cost, very nicely finished and certainly very comfortable for us (2 adults and a small spaniel, who didn’t want to leave). We had a couple of issues, but they were dealt with without fuss. We shall definitely be back, simply a beautiful place.

Quiet oasis

We booked this trip for a quiet weekend with our dog and this property 100% delivered. The screened in porch and the sounds of the creek and birds made it the perfect stay in the middle of NC summer. Our guest contact was responsive and very helpful, keeping us updated on whether the creek was passable after some storms passed through. We also appreciated the quality appliances and fixtures. If you’re looking for a quiet, isolated, and comfortable getaway, this is the place to be!

Great Getaway

My family had a fantastic visit here recently. We were secluded with no other homes near us on a large plot to explore. The creek was perfect for my son to wade in and it provided a relaxing backdrop to watch and listen to, even from the screened porch. Inside was very clean and modern. All things were in good working order and maintained very nicely. Plenty of places to explore in the surrounding towns which included Blowing Rock. Great getaway!

Honeymoon Getaway

My husband and I came here for our honeymoon and had a great time! The location is perfectly secluded with the sounds of wind and the river bear by. Night sky of stars easily visible. Hot tub, fir pit, and grill were available for use. I gave 4 stars for cleanliness just for the fact that we found a pillow in the closet with stains on it. Other than that the property was spotless. Would stay again !

Recommending to all my friends

Best small mountain cabin I have stayed in. It is perfect for an escape for 2 or a small family. This place is only 6 miles off a 4-lane highway and 1/4 from the main road. It feels like you are deep in the woods. The stream is perfect with water levels and flow to play in. The cabin has a ton of USB ports for modern families. Nice firepit, grill (gas), and hot tub. The kitchen had everything you need, even a coffee maker for 12 cup pots and/or Kcups. Nice washer and dryer. I have never stayed in the same cabin twice. This one I will.
