Our group had a wonderful time at Greystone! The creek was beautiful and the kids had a great time playing in it, we were able to see it from inside the house. We loved that there was a small book nook for children and adults! The layout of the house was great for our medium sized group. We would love to return another time!

Thank you so much for your kind words and for choosing Greystone! We’re thrilled to hear your group enjoyed the creek views — it tends to steal the spotlight a bit, but we don’t mind sharing.
It’s wonderful that both the kids and adults found the book nook inviting (we like to think it’s a tiny escape within the bigger escape). We’re also glad the layout worked well for your group — comfort and togetherness are exactly what we hope every stay brings.
We would absolutely love to welcome you back anytime. The creek will be waiting… probably still showing off.
Everything about this property and the host were amazing. There were so many options for outdoor activities for the kids and the house was very kid-friendly. We spent a full week and would have liked to spend longer if possible. We needed to reach out to the host for help a few times and they were incredibly responsive and attentive. Looking forward to planning our next vacation here again soon!

Thank you so much for this wonderful review!We’re thrilled to hear that your family enjoyed the property and that the kids had plenty of room to explore and have fun—happy kids are the real five-star rating in our book. It’s also great to know our responsiveness made your stay even smoother.A full week always seems to fly by when you’re having fun, so we’ll be ready and waiting when you decide to come back for round two (or three!). Thanks again for choosing to stay with us—we’d love to host you again very soon.
This is the perfect little getaway for a couple or a big family. We had 4 adults and 5 kids from 9-17 in age that gave everyone a comfortable space. We would definitely book this cabin again. Nice quiet area with minimal traffic. Close enough to town if you want to get groceries or eat at a restaurant. Definitely a wonderful place to stay!

Thank you so much for the kind words! We’re thrilled the cabin worked so well for both the adults and the kids—that’s no small feat (especially with ages 9–17). We’re glad you enjoyed the quiet setting while still being close enough to town for easy outings. It means a lot to hear you’d book again, and we’d absolutely love to host your crew anytime. Come back soon—we’ll keep the peaceful vibes ready!
This was an amazing stay. Our kids absolutely loved it. Was difficult to get them inside for bed because of the swing and slide. Haha. Everything was laid out perfectly in the welcome book. Not only that but everything was labeled which was very appreciated. If we travel back that we, we would definitely stay there again!
From the owner: "Hi Rick! Thanks for the review! We do give easy-to-follow directions with the check-in information that hopefully will help you find it easier next time. Hope you enjoyed your visit. Please come back and visit us soon."
Had an excellent time here letting the kids enjoy the wonderful outdoors space. The cabin is great, but we spent the vast majority of time outside. Cell coverage was spotty, but the Wi-Fi worked well. Great view of the stars for this part of the country. Would stay again!

We were in awe at the beauty of the property and what it had to offer. We explored many trails, swung on the swings, laughed all the way down the slide (adults too), and felt warm and cozy in the very accommodating house. We loved this spot!

Hi Tom, the homeowners have asked us to share this response:
Thank you for your great review and rating! We love how secluded the cabin is and Elk River Falls is our favorite waterfall! We hope you can come back and visit Greystone again soon.
The property was very nice and clean. We only got to stay one night since we were in town for land of oz. The property is located about 30 mins away so it wasn’t bad at all.

This was our second time at greystone and we loved it just as much as our first! Perfect for kids of all ages. Close to everything you could want or need but also plenty on site to not ever need to leave.

This property was amazing. There were lots of things for the kids to adventure out and find. The property manager was great to work with and was very helpful.
This home was immaculately clean and perfectly appointed for receiving guests. We had a wonderful time. The mountain property was also wonderful with hiking trails and a short walk to a fishing stream.

We greatly enjoyed the property and hiked the trails on the property. Our grandchildren loved the mountain slide, the swings and crossing the stream. We hiked to Elk River Falls, Splash Dam Falls, and Jones Falls. We made most of our meals at the home and found everything we needed. The whole family enjoyed their time at this peaceful location.

My son-in-law and grandsons gave it an A+ because of all the adventures on the trails on the property. My daughter and I loved the amount of space and the spotless kitchen. Truly enjoyed the weekend unplugged.
