Ever stay somewhere so perfect you've wondered if you should just change your mailing address? Welcome to Timber Creek!
Bordering a natural forest, it’s secluded enough for that true cabin feel—yet close enough to grab a pizza when cooking feels like a four-letter word
Gaze at the creek from your window, sip coffee from your balcony, and enjoy a kitchen so loaded you might actually choose to cook!
Drift off to the soothing ambient soundtrack of the Zigzag River—the true white noise of nature!
PROPERTY LAYOUT—
• You'll have complete access to Timber Creek —one of two cabins on the property
• Want to take over the entire compound? Book our other 3-bedroom cabin next door (check my profile for deets)
• Each cabin has its own entrance and private space
• The neighbors have their own hot tub hidden in the woods. Staging a hot tub heist? That’s a $200 fine—save your cash for pizza, not a bad decision
YOU MIGHT SLEEP THROUGH YOUR ALARM—
• Four comfortable beds that'll make you question your bed choices back home
• Downstairs bedroom situation: One king, the other a cozy queen with its own door to the forest. Creek-view bragging rights as well
• Upstairs arrangement: two additional King bedrooms, one with a private door to a wraparound creek-side balcony—the perfect spot for a morning coffee (also doubles as an emergency sleeping quarters if dinner conversations don't go as planned)
FULLY LOADED MODERN KITCHEN —
• Fully renovated—more stainless steel than a Cybertruck
• All the standard appliances you'd expect, plus a dishwasher (because you're not here to create memories of washing dishes)
• Coffee maker, blender, rice cooker, kettle, air fryer—are you still with me? If it chops, blends, or heats, hopefully we've snagged it for you
• A table that seats six + four island bar stools for when you need a quick coffee perch while the toast burns
TECH FOR WHEN NATURE GETS BORING—
• Let's be honest, "unplugging" is just something we say, not something we actually mean...
• So stay connected and entertained with internet fast enough to Zoom with your boss, stream that show everyone's talking about, AND defend pineapple on pizza across three social platforms
• Five 4K Roku TVs scattered throughout the cabin, ranging from 50" to 75." Because vacation is when families gather together to watch different shows in separate rooms
• Stream all your favorites with your own login, because sharing passwords with strangers is so 2010
CLIMATE CONTROL FOR EVERY MOOD—
• Mini-split heating/cooling in the kitchen and living rooms because Mother Nature can be moody
• Gas fireplace for that cabin vibe, without the whole "chopping wood" situation
• Portable fans for when the PNW decides to impersonate Arizona for a day
• The kitchen and living rooms feature dimmable lighting to adjust from, "I can actually see my food," to a romantic dinner ambiance
• Stairway lights to prevent midnight tumbles during bathroom quests
BATHROOMS—
• Upstairs: Claw-foot tub under a perfectly placed "no-peeping" window - natural light without the natural audience
• Downstairs: Tub/shower plus washer/dryer—clean your clothes and yourself in one go
• Both bathrooms prioritize function over interpretive dance space, but have everything you need

Interaction with guests—
• I won't be physically present (no surprise breakfast visits, promise!), but I'm just a message away via the VRBO app
• Think of me as your virtual concierge – less creepy than a hotel ghost, more helpful than Siri
• Need me? Holler. Otherwise, enjoy your forest freedom!
House Rules—
• No smoking, vaping, or e-cig shenanigans: $300 fine if we catch a whiff
• Party Foul: No parties, glitter, or confetti—save it for Vegas
• Pets? Cool, but no furniture-hopping (beds included) or carpet-ruining. Clean up their yard art.
• Parking: Driveway (3 spaces), don’t block the road
• Noise: Be courteous to our neighbors – they know where we live
• Hot Tub: Not yours. Not worth the $ fine
• Treat It Nice: Clean up spills, tell me if you break stuff
*We reserve the right to charge additional fees for non-compliance leading to extra cleaning or damages*
CELL SERVICE—
• Enable Wi-Fi calling and our internet's got your back—you'll be able to call and text seamlessly
• If the internet goes down, your cell reception becomes spottier than a teenager's face
• A short walk outside usually solves any connection emergencies
PET PALS—
• We're pet-friendly, allowing up to two dogs per stay
• Please keep them off furniture, beds, and carpet – dog hair is the glitter of the pet world
• No solo doggy adventures while you're out exploring – they tend to redecorate in expensive ways
• Clean up any outdoor "artistic expressions" and we're all good!
CREEK SAFETY—
• The creek’s gorgeous but not a babysitter
• Watch your little humans. Children must be supervised at all times within proximity to the creek (this is the non-negotiable serious part)
• Please exercise caution, use good judgment, and act responsibly at all times. Safety first!
EXTERIOR SECURITY CAMERAS—
• Active exterior cameras record video and sound at the front door and driveway
• All indoor spaces remain completely private
MOUNTAIN LIFE—
• It's not us, it's the trees
• On rare occasions, Mother Nature likes to remind us who's in charge
• We may occasionally lose power or internet when trees high five power lines
• Resolution times vary and are completely out of our control—perfect opportunity for a digital detox! Show your kids how you survived the 1990s, they won't believe you
WILDLIFE AWARENESS—
• If encountered, observe deer, coyotes, bear, snakes or other wildlife from a distance
• Do not attempt to feed, all animals should be considered dangerous even if they appear docile
• Insects may be present in/around cabin as part of the forest environment. No refunds for wildlife/insect sightings
