We stayed in the home for the entire month of July 2026. Location was good between Maggie, Waynesville, Asheville, Pisgah, SMNP and Cherokee. The grandkids loved the hot tub and creek. Private setting on a relatively quiet road. The action around hummingbird feeders was fun to watch. The living areas, bedrooms and bathrooms were modern and comfortable. All the entertainment equipment worked well.Overall condition of the property was "tired". The bunk beds were rickety, only two of the grill burners functioned, some of the outdoor furniture was in disrepair, carpenter bees were active on the exterior, we had to shut down the ice maker because of leaking and there was a roof leak in the living area during heavy rains. Cleanliness could have been better. The oven was filthy. The utensils, pots and pans, while well stocked, all needed to be cleaned before use.

Such a peaceful and beautiful cabin!

Our experience was just wonderful- beautiful location by a creek and woods. The hosts are very helpful, everything was just as shown and the cabin was generously equipped. It was so clean, beds were very comfortable and the bathrooms were luxurious. The hot tub is near the beautiful creek and there are lots of birds and hiking trails in the Smokey mountains. We would love to return!

What a wonderful vacation we had! My husband, our teen daughter & I stayed here for 6 days during spring break. The area offers plenty, & during the times we just wanted some relaxing “down time” this cabin was perfect, too. It was very clean & well-appointed. Wi-fi, television were great, and the creek & hot tub were wonderful! The beds were the most comfortable of any VRBO in which we have ever stayed. I was concerned at first with having neighbors nearby, but we never saw them & it was quiet with the exception of some large construction equipment preparing a lot across the road. But, that was only for a short time on a few days. The Blue Ridge Parkway was close-by, & is a “must-see.” Downtown Waynesville was very nice, & Great Smoky Mountains National Park is not too far away. Asheville is also easily accessible. Everything was absolutely wonderful!!
The creek right behind the cabin. Our daughter found lizards & a crawdad to observe at night!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Creekside Cabin! We took advantage of the hot tub and back deck every day! It was the perfect location to explore the beauty of Haywood County. The owners we easy to work with and very responsive. Thanks for sharing your home with us!

Beautiful mountain trip

This house is truly in the mountains, we enjoyed the babbling brook, watching chipmunks in the morning beside. The granddaughters were happy having a hot tub. Overall we had a very nice long weekend. Would recommend. The road up to it is something else.

Absolutely Perfect

This was hands down the best cabin rental we’ve ever experienced! The cabin was meticulously cleaned and stocked and the privacy was appreciated. The noisy creek water cascading over the rocks provided a tranquil, awesome respite from the busy “day to day” life. Thank you to our amazing hosts. You have a beautiful cabin you should be so proud of!

Get away...far away!

We were looking for something away from the crowds and the hustle and bustle of typical tourist areas. We were also looking for a place that would allow us to spend time enjoying the outdoors. This rental did not disappoint. The cabin is literally right on a mountain stream. It has two firepit areas right on the stream as well as a hot tub. We had a great time grilling, eating, relaxing, and enjoying the fire pit all creek side. The cabin itself had all of the things we needed as well. We hope to return again in the near future when we need a peaceful getaway.

Relaxation at it's finest!

This property fit the bill for a weekend to disconnect, relax, and enjoy family in the peacefulness of mountains. The creek was literally right off the back deck. It was the best part of the entire trip! Beds were comfortable, kitchen was well appointed, nice grill, firepit with utensils for smores were perfect. Internet was great and handled streaming channels perfectly. Cell service was fine too, even though none of us really used it. The only thing we weren't really prepared for was the downstairs bed and bath are available by outdoor entrance only. Not a big deal for us at all, as our adult children stayed down there. Can't wait to book again!

Beautiful Home & Beautiful Property!!!

What a wonderful time we had staying at this cabin! We were the first guests for the owners, and Brad and Shirley were wonderful to work with. The cabin is beautiful, and the creek right outside your door was amazing. We spent a lot of time out on the deck, and it was just beautiful and so peaceful. Brad and Shirley have thought of everything you might possibly need for your stay, and the cabin was decorated so pretty for fall. Everything was spotless, and the fireplace was so cozy while listening to the creek and my uncle playing us several tunes on the guitar that was provided. We also enjoyed the hummingbirds, and loved having all the feeders around for them to come too. The barstools on the deck made for a perfect place to watch them! Couldn't have asked for a more restful place to relax and unwind from the world for a little while. Going into town was easy, and we enjoyed checking out the shops and restaurants nearby. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, and know you won't be disappointed if you book from Brad and Shirley too!

Beautiful Creekside Property

Very nice cabin and property. We especially liked the property and the proximity to the creek at the rear of the house. Nice wide and flat concrete driveway, with easy access to the house, along with a nice flat to rolling front yard. The bar and bar stools on the back porch overlooking the creek were awesome, we spent a number of mealtimes out there. The cabin has a nice layout, with the separate king room downstairs, being a little odd, but not a big deal. One negative, the ceiling height of the downstairs bathroom and bedroom was quite low. I am 6’4” and the bedroom ceiling was around 7’ with some duct work protruding downward in one portion of the room that I had to be careful not to hit my head on, and the tub area in the bathroom was under 6’4”, so I had to bend over to use that area. It is a bit inconvenient. If you are not that tall, it is not an issue. Overall, very nice place.

Peaceful setting, beautiful cabin

We loved staying at this cabin. The property was gorgeous surrounded by beautiful trees, birds, and a creek. Inside was very nicely decorated, felt cozy and was very clean! That’s something I feel is very important in any stay and this cabin was up to high standards in cleanliness. We had all the basic toiletries we needed upon arrival, even some snacks provided by the fantastic host! The kids room had the cutest bunks and bedding. The living quarters downstairs was luxurious and the bed was super comfy. There were so many extras as well, even though we didn’t have time to enjoy them, such as toys, board games, dvds, and even video game systems. The host really thought of everything and you could tell they really care for their property. The host themselves were great about getting back to us quickly with any questions we had and gave us some great suggestions for nearby groceries, fruit stands, coffee, and a cool leather shop in Waynesville-Axe & Awl. We will be back to this place next time we’re in the area. Thank you Brad and Shirley!

Great cabin for a quiet getaway!

Cabin was very clean, true to description and pictures and stocked with initial supplies. We've stayed in some VRBOs that didn't even have salt/pepper so we were grateful that we didn't have to buy any basics. They even provided shampoo/body wash from a local soap shop that we had to go check out for ourselves. They provided a book with great activity and restaurant recommendations. The cabin had lots of entertainment from books to satellite TV, plus internet service good enough for streaming (we had heavy rain most of our visit, but didn't mind). Lots of great areas covered and uncovered to relax and listen to the creek behind the house, plus many feeders in the yard attracting birds and squirrels. Comfortable king bed downstairs --it had a foam top which we love! The location is convenient to SMNP (check out the elk at Cataloochee!) and surrounding communities. Close to I40, but never heard any noise. Very communicative owners and a very short and sweet check out list (not some 20 point list that you get with some). Owners have many little touches making this a great overall place to escape to and we hope to be back soon!

It was perfect!

My husband and I celebrated our 25th anniversary “family style” so we had with us our three children (15, 13, 3) and my 75 yr old mom—we couldn’t have asked for anything better in a property! What originally drew us to the property was the hope of the creek. Some listings have fooled us in the past because either the pictures or promise of ease of access is misleading. But not this place—the home is directly on the creek and access is as simple as stepping in to play (which proved lots of fun for the kids). We thoroughly enjoyed the gorgeous back porch for our meals at home. I appreciated the well equipped kitchen. It had everything we needed and more. We also loved that there was a large front yard for the kids to run around in and chase lightning bugs. Loved watching all the birds, chipmunks, and bunnies while we had coffee in the awesome rockers on the front porch. The location was perfect for our plans—secluded enough, but close to grocery stores, downtown, and our adventures (if you stay here, you MUST drive to see the elk in Cataloochee Valley). Beds were comfortable, living space was cozy, and best yet, the entire home was spotless! The hosts were kind and attentive in all of our interactions. You will not be disappointed in a thing with this home.

Cute, Cozy, and Welcoming

We enjoyed our stay very much! We are a family of 5. Two adults and three young children. We had my Mother n law, Sis n law, and my niece join us for a total of 8 (4 adults and 4 children) There was room for everyone! Even at the table in the kitchen (which you can’t tell from the picture) but we had breakfast here one more and a game night with all 8 of us sitting there. The decorations of cabin are so adorable and every time I looked around I noticed a decoration I hadn’t noticed yet. There were lots of little things that made us feel so welcomed. For example, there was plenty of firewood. Even though it rained and we weren’t able to have a fire I thought this was so nice! We didn’t have time to stop at the store the first evening and there was a few bottles of water in the fridge, another thoughtful “little touch” we made sure we replenished the water before we left for the next guests. The hot tub was already at a nice temperature so there was no waiting to be able to enjoy it. These are just a few examples of all the welcoming little touches! I loved the list of recommendations and we tried a few to help get our adventures started. We spent evenings on the back porch over looking the creek, we watched our kids play in it during the days. We didn’t even mind that it rained. The beds are comfy and the separate room downstairs was a great bonus! We enjoyed our stay at this cute, cozy, and welcoming cabin. We hope to visit again!

The cabin was great! Awesome creek right out the door. The kids enjoyed the creek and the hot tub. My wife and myself enjoyed the fact that the room downstairs was somewhat isolated from the upstairs. We enjoyed the quite time at night while the kids were asleep. Mr Brad done an excellent job keeping in touch and answered all questions in a time manner. Thanks for letting our family use your cabin for the week it was very nice and comfortable!

The cabin location was excellent. The stream was a peaceful and lovely to listen to. The inside was nice a cozy but I would like more light. Note the master bedroom and bath is beautiful but it is in the basement and you have to go outside to get to it. Inconvenient when raining, which we had during our stay.

Best cabin for our family

Easiest 5 star review I have ever written. My boys loved this house and so did my mother in law, my wife and me. It didn’t feel like a normal rental. It felt like a home. The boys loved the creek and outside and we loved the location. We loved driving the back roads to Maggie’s Valley and Waynesville and there was plenty to do for a few days. We loved the back porch for breakfast and afternoon cocktails!!
