There is a grill for cooking out, a Hot Tub to soak away stress, and there is a Fire Pit for those who wish to build camp fire after dinner along the creek.

What a lovey cabin and location! So peaceful and beautiful on the creek. The owners do an awesome job of providing amenities. The outdoor areas - fire pit, gazebo, and porches are all wonderful. The cabin is decorated so well. A great place to unwind and relax. This trip we traveled to nearby Grayson Highlands State Park for a very pleasant day of hiking, picnicking, seeing the wild ponies and enjoying the beautiful scenery of the Blue Ridge Mountains.Love this cabin and its location!

Great Secluded Getaway

This is a great little cabin that was nicely equipped and decorated. The owners were responsive with a minor issue at check-in (to no fault of their own). Beautiful scenery and several outside amenities. Linens and towels were comfy. Just far enough away from the nearest small town of Lansing that had a beautiful great riverside park with plenty of area to fish and play.

Great getaway!

If you are looking for a relaxing getaway, this is your place! The house sits right on the creek and is a beautiful backdrop. My suggestion is open the bedroom window and fall asleep to the soothing sound is the creek. You will sleep like a baby! The cabin is so cutely decorated with all the outdoor decor. Super cute! The kitchen is well stocked for all your cooking needs. Great cabin!

Miss Nan's 1st Mountain Trip

The location was great for us because we like being secluded. We took our dog for her first mountain visit and she had a good time and celebrated her 1st birthday. The stream behind the house is pleasant to listen to but since the weather was cool we did not open the windows. It would be great during the summer. Would like to go back again.

Our favorite vacation spot

This was our third time staying at this cabin and we absolutely love it! It's quiet and peaceful and you can hear the sounds of the creek from the bedroom. We spent a lot of time in the hot tub and it was nice to be able to have our dog hang out on the wrap-around porch while we were relaxing (there is a gate on the porch to keep him near us). The only slight negative was that the gas grill wasn't working - but we didn't even bother mentioning it to the owners since there was also a charcoal grill available. This has been our favorite place to vacation for years, but this year it became even more special when my boyfriend proposed to me right next to the creek. Now it's an even more special place and we will definitely be back!

Great stay, but uncomfortable bed

The property is great. Sitting on the back porch and listening to the creek was great. The kitchen was wonderful and the living area was comfortable and clean. We had an issue while staying and the owners resonded quickly. Our only complaint is the mattress. It seemed to have a "V" shape and mostly slept in the middle of the bed. We would stay again, but would bring blow up mattresses.

My boyfriend and I had an amazing stay at this cabin. It was beautiful during the fall. The cabin was clean and the hot tub was perfect. We drove up to Damascus to go hiking and enjoyed the downtown there. We also spent explored West Jefferson. It’s a great spot to enjoy the outdoors and just relax. My favorite parts were reading my book by the water and listening to the water when I went to sleep and woke up from the bedroom window. It is a perfect couples getaway.

The only complaint we had was that our stay was too short. Everything was just as advertised and when they say remote you really need to take it to heart. Once you leave the cabin there is no cell service which means no GPS or Google map. Take it from me that an atlas would be a wise investment if you visit this part of NC.
