Vacation or unwind in beautiful Northeast Tennessee. A writer's inspiration, an artists haven or a book reader's dream retreat. 1-1/2 miles down the road from Pulitzer Prize-winning author Alex Haley's former home and farm. 3 miles from historic Downtown Clinton where you will feel like you have stepped back in time. 1960’s drug store with the old fashion soda fountain. World famous antique shops. Restored operating movie theater. Dine in an old fashion diner.

Close to restaurants and shopping yet located in a private countryside setting. Our location is perfect, only 34 minutes from Knoxville's McGhee Tyson Airport, 3 miles from the famous Smithsonian sponsored Museum of Appalachia, 10 minutes from Norris Dam with 34,200 acres of prize lake fishing & boating activities, 15 miles from Oak Ridge & it's famous nuclear and science museums, 20 mins from many of Knoxville's main attractions such as Neyland Stadium home to the TN Vols, the trendy Market Square with open air concerts in the summer and the beautiful Turkey Creek district with top name shopping and restaurants.

This area has become very popular for ATV/Razr riders with three large mountain trail riding establishments (with 4 wheel rentals) within 30 minutes of cabin, Windrock Park, (314 miles of trails) Brimstone (300 miles of trails) and Royal Blue (600 miles of trails). If you're more interested in the two wheel motorcycle enjoyment (or for the sports car enthusiast) the world famous "Tail of the Dragon" which connects TN to NC with 318 curves in 11 miles, is a road not to be missed and all within a short drive of your stay.

Cabin on the Creek is also less than an hour from Pigeon Forge, Dollywood and The Great Smoky Mountains National Park, plus the famous Biltmore Estate in Asheville, NC is only two hours away.

This is a great place to stay. It is exactly as listed, clean, easy to get around, great fenced in areas for pets and children. The fenced in play house is a great addition to the yard. The climate controlled sun room is were we spent most of our time. Easy to navigate the community as well. Overall 10 out of 10 stay!

Perfect getaway with family and friends. We stayed from Sunday to Sunday. The host was on point with everything. We met slithering Sally she entertained us for two days. She watched my movemens but just relaxed and didn't do a thing. We stayed out in the sun porch most of the time. So, we can be close to our fur baby.

Rocky Top Relaxation

We really enjoyed our time here. It's very peaceful and scenic. We enjoyed watching the deer and turkeys roam through the backyard. The sunroom and front porch were great for relaxing. The weather didn't allow for roasting marshmallows but maybe next time.

Graduation Weekend Stay

This was beautiful property and perfect house for our needs for our daughter's graduation from UTk weekend. We were worried it would be too far away but it ended up not being an issue and we were able to avoid some of the crowd. Craig and his wife were wonderful adjusting dates for us as we were not sure when graduation would be and such. Glad our family could hand together. Thanks, Joy

We really enjoyed our stay at Cabin by the Creek. The kitchen had everything you would need. The weather was cold and we enjoyed the fireplace. We had quests for dinner and the four season room was warm and pleasant to set out there and eat. I hope we can go back again.

Perfect Cabin

Our group of 6 traveled to see our son at the University of Tennessee. This cabin was perfectly distanced from the city and gave us a quiet retreat to enjoy cooking out and enjoying ourselves. We had plenty of space and found the cabin to be very cozy with everything we needed. It was just perfect and we will be staying again and again.

Family Stay

We had stayed at this property before the current owners purchased it. So glad we choose to stay again, the gas stove and remodeling of the first floor shower was a wonderful addition 👌. We enjoy the Clinton area and will keep the lovely cabin on our favorite listings. Thank you for sharing your vacation home with us!

This is a very well-maintained property. It was also supplied with many nice extras! We appreciated not having to worry about the little things. We were there to visit family in the area and it had plenty of space for entertainment. We could live there permanently :) Thanks for such a great vacation!
