Lovely secluded cabin by a flowing stream
This beautiful, cozy cabin was perfect for our stay. Lovely location in front of a stream (you can see rainbow trout swimming), The only sounds are those of the stream's running water over the rocks below the cabin's balcony. If you are looking for peace and quiet then this will fit the bill, but you may need a 4WD vehicle to get to it! Note: there is no wi-fi, cell service, washer/drier or dishwasher. If you "need" those, look elsewhere. For us it was perfect.

Perfect Weekend Getaway
Our stay here definitely exceeded expectations. We wanted a weekend to disconnect and decompress, and this cozy cabin did just the trick! Well equipped with all the essentials and then some. Nicely decorated and super clean overall. The flowing creek was very relaxing to sit next to on the porch swing or light a fire out at the fire pit. We were hesitant to see how comfortable the bed actually was after seeing a few previous reviews criticizing the comfort, but it seemed like a decent mattress pad had at least been added, so the bed was certainly comfortable for us. The dirt/gravel road getting to the cabin was navigable, but we were certainly thankful we had an awd suv. A lower front wheel drive car might have a bit more of a challenge with parts of the road, but might still make it. The description also said there’s room for two small cars to park, but turning around with another car there would definitely be a challenge. It took a little bit to figure out how to best turn our full size suv around the first time, but it was fine after that. The only real critique was that the septic/plumbing lines would very quickly get overloaded to where the toilet would no longer flush. After sitting overnight or all day while out, we could get two full flushes in, but that would be about it. The sinks and shower would always drain fine, but running either of those would quickly take away potential good flushes. Hopefully that can get fixed, because we’d love to stay again!

Beautiful, quaint cabin. Kitchen is fully equipped. The mattress in the master needs to be replaced, it is very uncomfortable. There was plenty of firewood but nothing to light it with. We would definitely stay here again. The sound of the creek was so peaceful and we loved not having internet and being able to play all the games provided and fish off the deck with the provided pole. Thank you

This was a perfect little spot to go and unwind for a few days. We built fires in the fire pit and sat and listened to the creek and it was incredibly relaxing.

Amazing Place!
We absolutely loved this little cabin on the creek! We had a blast the whole stay. From fishing on the deck, hiking around the creek beds, to the bbq fest we attended in town. We also enjoyed our trip into Mccaysville to the neat restaurants on the river. & you definitely can’t beat waking up to that beautiful view of the creek right from the bedroom doors. We will definitely return & recommend this place for all who love relaxing & a little adventure. Thanks for having us!

Weekend river retreat
Nice time with piece and seclusion on the water. No wifi (easy to have installed) and landline doesn’t work. Fun fishing from deck and tubing in river. Nice to have grill although burners need replacing. Snakes bedding on rocks below deck. Need to remedy…water moccasin/copperheads (poisonous). Outside trash bin was full from previous guests. Had to leave trash inside so critters wouldn’t get into. Clean an comfortable. Enjoyed our few days.

Relaxing weekend
My husband and I took a long weekend at this cabin and it was wonderful. It is along a beautiful section of Branch Creek. The water sound is so relaxing and tranquil. It is small but very cozy and we relaxed by the fire pit and listened to the sound of the water. It is incredibly clean, equipped with necessary amenities, and a very short drive to Blue Ridge. We will definitely be back.
