Great small, clean and beautiful getaway!

The place was beautiful! It's just like it is in the pictures and kept very clean! We stayed while visiting family so we didn't spend very much time there but I would have not cared if we did! We got a restful and good comfortable sleep! If u are someone that like to sleep super warm u might wanna bring an extra blanket, for us it was just perfect, we will def be back!

Wonderful retreat

My husband and I had a wonderful 4 day stay. We were looking to have a relaxing trip and that's exactly what we got. The home was equipped with all kitchen and bathroom items we needed. The location was tranquil and right next to a creek. My husband even caught a catfish right off the deck! If you are looking to relax and rewind, it's a great place.

Very nice little cabin, would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a bit of tranquility, out little family had great time with the cabin and surrounding property. None of us were brave enough to try our luck at kayaking but the option is a great addition to the cabin. Thanks for having us 🙂

Fun place to stay and play!

Cute tiny house! Came with kayaks and paddleboard to use while there. We used these on Racoon Creek and had a great time! With 4 kids and 2 adults we knew it would be tight, but the host was kind enough to drop off extra sheets and blankets for us to use on the couch and blow up mattress! Ants were all over, but this is probably normal for Ohio ;) Overall, a fun place to stay if you are in the area!

Serenity

I couldn’t be more pleased with our stay at the creek house! My husband and I came for a weekend getaway to relax and escape reality for just a couple days! That’s exactly what we got! The property was clean, well stocked, and had everything we needed! The views were beautiful and the sounds of nature relaxing! We loved playing board games on the deck, kayaking down the creek, and relaxing in the hammocks! I highly recommend this property! You won’t want to leave!

A perfect weekend!

My spouse and I booked this property as a last minute getaway trip. The home was spotless clean, the perfect size for the two of us and so cutely decorated. The communication and check in process was excellent. We loved the letter board welcoming us on our stay, the host thought of everything! The swings and hammock below was our favorite spot for our morning coffee. We cannot wait to come back in the warmer weather to enjoy the Kayaks and cornhole!

Great property for nature lovers

We enjoyed thanksgiving week in this lovely creekside tiny house! The hosts gave us a heads up to check out Gallipolis in Lights, which the kids and I thoroughly enjoyed. We enjoyed the kayaks, corn hole and fire pit. We also drove over to hocking hills one day.

Sad occasion wonderful retreat

Came to town for a family funeral, unexpectedly. Don & Ashley were so wonderful and accommodating in every way possible for such a short notice rental. While our trip was a sad moment, the cottage was so serene and peaceful. Was a nice place to reflect and just enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the creek and nature. Thank you so much for providing such a beautiful place to rest our weary selves. We look forward to future visits and rentals to enjoy more of the surroundings!!

Great place by the creek!!

The place was beautiful and cozy. It was like staying in a modern treehouse by the creek. SOOO relaxing! The hosts have everything needed for a stay while we visited some of the local attractions in West Virginia. Kayaking was great fun just be mindful of the submerged tree where you put in. I found it and flipped like a champ. :) I would highly recommend the creekside cabin to anyone and if I am ever up that way again will absolutely book a stay! .

Creekhouse

The creek house was amazing!! the view was spectacular as was the sounds of the creek. My only suggestion would be a coat rack maybe on the wall outside of the bathroom. It would be nice to have a place downstairs to hang jackets / wet towels. cant wait to visit again!!
