Prepare your favorite dinner on the gas grill while sipping on your favorite cocktail. There is plenty of seating to accommodate your entire group. There is no better way to finish off a peaceful day than roasting s’mores around the fire pit or soaking in the private hot tub. Be sure to gaze up at the star-filled sky!

When those eyes get heavy, sleep well in one of the 3 comfortably furnished bedrooms and loft.

Heaven on earth. Our dream home!Checking in was seamless. The house was beautiful and exceeded our expectations . Had a fully functional kitchen with gas burners. We left most of the windows open to hear the creek just outside the house. We relaxed in the evenings grilling, playing on the pool table downstairs in the game room then stepped outside and enjoyed the fire around the fire pit sitting next to the flowing creek just steps down. Our two small pups loved the creek hikes!!Also enjoyed our hike to Long Creek Falls - worth the drive and hike!Thanks to our host Steven for making our stay the absolute best - memories we’ll have forever

Overall great cabin. Plenty of sleeping accommodations. There were options for entertainment with a pool table, video games, board games, corn hole, hot tub. Outdoor fire pit was great for the colder weather. Kitchen was good and was fully stocked with the essentials. Cooking pans should be replaced as a number of them had the nonstick coating that was very pitted and scratched off.Plenty of seating areas to watch TV or movies. Couches are need of a replacement as the cushions were pretty worn and some torn in a few places. Owner was great with communications and easily to get in touch with for any questions or concerns.Definitely recommend the private cabin.

This property was one of the nicest places I’ve ever stayed. The creek was an awesome backyard view, and the sound of flowing water was great when relaxing after a long day. The host, Steven was prompt and very communicative. Check-in / check-out was made easy with the digital lock, and there were plenty of amenities that kept my family and toddler busy. We had so much fun!

Privacy was excellent which is what we were looking for. Seating and bed were comfortable. TVs and cooking supplies were adequate. Driveway was no joke, so be careful, and would not recommend bringing a full size truck or SUV. Host was very responsive. Couple small issues handled quickly with no problem.
