NC Cabin Creekside: Stunning Creek Views, Sleeps 7 —5 Stars

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful house on beautiful property. Just steps from a nice size creek , perfect for wading through. Some spots you could get all the end...at certain warmer months. Hot tub was perfect on the cool nights we were there. The house was in a perfect location right in between Dillard and Franklin with some amazing restaurants just minutes away. But far enough away for peace and quite. The host was amazing...very attentive to questions i had. Check in and check out was effortless."

The Loft: Cabin Getaway w/Covered Porch & Stunning Mountain Views

10/10 Excellent

"This is a fabulous property! It was so clean and well-stocked with essentials, and Matthew was a responsive host. We loved the view from the porch, and the videos of driving up to the Loft helped us not get lost! The Loft was a convienent home base for hiking and adventures, and the cozy space was a delight during some rain."

Creekside in the Smoky Mtns. has a rejuvenating quality. Something we all need!

10/10 Excellent

"The Volks are the best hosts we’ve ever had the privilege to interact with. They are a wealth of information for anything you may be interested in doing during your stay! And if you’re lucky, they may teach you how to play corn hole if you’ve never had the chance to learn (or even if you have)!Their place is absolutely lovely. An amazing Mountain View, and everything you could need or want for your stay. They inside was clean and welcoming, with an easy flow. Entering in is the living room, with the bedroom to the left and kitchen to the right. All you need to provide is the food!The outside includes so many amenities, but the porch swing, rocking chairs and fire pit were my personal favorites. We were able to hike (very mild) around the property and explore the beauty. We saw horses, deer, squirrels, birds and more birds (which I LOVED), and even a chipmunk!! We will definitely be returning to Creekside!"
