Rushing Creek Retreat, Serene Cabin with Great Views!

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay for our 16th wedding anniversary. It was very peaceful sitting and listening to the stream from the porch above. The entrance was a little tight getting into the cabin but was nice once you got in and turned around if you’re in a suv or smaller. The bedroom closer to bathroom on lower level felt like it had a bit of moisture and sheets felt a bit moist. The other room felt fine so we slept in there with no issues. The decor was very nice and cozy and the porch had plenty of space to relax. We really enjoyed our stay at the rustic cabin retreat."
