Clean and cute!
The stay had everything one would expect to find at a VRBO and then some. The home felt brand new, including all amenities. The location was perfect and we spent several days exploring the many creeks and rivers in be area. My only suggestions are to add a tv in the master bedroom, include instructions for in case the internet goes down (the modem or router are locked away and it took us overnight to think of resetting the electric breaker), supply more trash bags, and improve access to the on-site creek. Really though- these are personal preferences and the property truly is beautifully kept and comfy. We’d absolutely stay here again!!

Leaf peeping on the motorcycles.
Other than no closet or place to hang clothes in the master, the place was perfect for us. It was very clean and had everything we needed. Beware of the master shower, the cold & hot were backwards...LOL The water does get very hot. We would definitely stay here again. Elisabeth is probably one of the best communicating host we've had out of any of our rentals on any rental platform.

Peaceful creekside getaway
Clean, cozy updated cottage had everything you could need. They really covered all the details. We had a great time building a campfire, walking the creek, and watching the neighbor's cows & wild turkeys too.

Beautiful and Great location
The home was very nice and cozy. Great layout and plenty of room. Well appointed and very clean. I can’t say enough about this property. The creek is just wonderful. All of the neighbors were very nice. Just a fantastic experience. Convenient location, yet that country feel. My son and i had a great time. It even snowed, what a bonus ! This property is great for families and we’ll definitely be back. My family and friends use vrbo’s a lot and this was one of the best overall places we’ve ever stayed!

Lovely Getaway
It was a great experience! Beth always responded within minutes. The property was exactly as described in the listing. We even received a bottle of wine at checkin :) It was nice to unplug from the hustle and bustle of central Florida and to enjoy the beautiful mountain views and the crisp mountain air!!

Beautiful property, easy to access
Spent 4 days at this lovely little abode with my girlfriend. We found the house was very clean, spacious and easy to access. The internet was fast, the TV worked well and the property was located a close distance to town. Overall we very much enjoyed our stay and would recommend this property to anybody looking to get away and spend some time in nature.
