About the host
Hosted by Damien Rosen
Hello, I'm Damien. I grew up in Connecticut, studied in Japan, graduated from Babson College and call West Palm Beach, FL and Franklin, NC home. Ivette and I love hosting because our creekside and mountain view homes are truly special places. This photo is from Florence, Italy (2017). We emphasize quality, cleanliness and maintaining our homes to premium standards. Longer stays get massive discounts. Read reviews to see why guests love our homes.
Why they chose this property
Rushing water from the creek makes Creekside Basecamp a very special place to stay. Listen to it and feel at one with nature. Watch it flowing all day and all night. Step into it and feel alive. The interior of the home is nicely remodeled and the beds are very comfortable. All rooms are spacious. We provide bath towels, soap, shampoo, conditioner and cooking items like oil, salt, pepper, spices, etc. Make the most of your creekside time in the mountains with large rooms, super-comfy beds, oversized couch and spacious kitchen.
The home is only minutes from the conveniences of a town like Franklin with cafes, shops, supermarkets, yoga & more while giving you the feeling of being in a private oasis.
What makes this property unique
The home sits literally just a few feet away from 2 intersecting creeks that can be enjoyed from the oversized deck or inside the house. The entire Western North Carolina region is famous for outdoor enthusiasts and hiking and hiking trails with waterfalls are right across the street from the house. US Forest Service borders the property on 2 sides. Sonos speakers throughout the house are connected to an ipad so you can stream music. Close proximity to all that Western North Carolina has to offer, such as hiking, fishing, lake boating, driving, gem mining, golf, exploring and taking a breath of fresh air.
