About this property

🦬 Buffalo Bungalow..Couples Only: sauna, massage table & much more!!

Truly, Buffalo roam on this private 65 acre little piece of heaven tucked away in the mountains. Whether watching the sunrise over the mountain peaks while the Smoky Mountains clear up for a beautiful day, or setting your sights on our herd of buffalo coming for their morning oats.

Buffalo Bungalow is a perfect choice for a romantic cabin.  Fully equipped kitchen, king size canopy bed, sauna & massage table!  The bathroom is one of a kind w/ a shower built for 2 w/ a therapeutic pebble floor & heated tile floors in the vanity area!


You will not be disappointed while you are enjoying a hot cup of coffee or cocoa on our large back deck of a gorgeous log cabin!

If you are looking for a quiet 'get away from it all' retreat with your loved one, this is it! Enjoy long hikes on the property, fishing within walking distance from the log cabin or take a trip into town to do some shopping or antiquing.

A vacation at Buffalo Bungalow is surely one that you both will always enjoy looking back on!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Buffalo creek as a base camp after exploring the Smokies! Being welcomed into a new day listening to birdsong with our coffee and being bid safe travels each day by the bison herd was truly magical. We enjoyed listening to the rain on the Tin roof and appreciating everything that Buffalo creek offered to help us reconnect as a couple.

Birthday Getaway

The cabin is accurately pictured and was clean and cozy. We had a problem with the remote needing batteries but we were pleasantly surprised that they came out that night to replace them, so 5 star service! The only reason I’m not giving it a perfect score is that we felt the road leading to the cabin was downplayed when we inquired about it. The potholes in the gravel road were bumpy on the way in and the concrete section was very steep and narrow. There was an unexpected snow that covered the road when we left and coming down the hill was quite scary. The resident calico was very sweet and a pleasure to have around.

Amazing Week!!!!

We had the best week celebrating our anniversary! We used every amenity at the cabin (fire pit, hot tub, massage table, games, etc), hiked on the property with our dogs, saw the bison feeding and learned all about them, and saw lots of other animals. Cheryl and Jeff were awesome and super helpful! We would love to visit again!!!

Cute hideaway!

Buffalo bungalow was a charming place tucked away on the property. The 4 wheel drive recommendation could probably be year round, and I definitely recommend arriving in the daylight. We enjoyed trying out the hot tub and sauna and walking the property. We didn't get around to seeing the bison on our quick trip, but we did see llamas on our walk. Overall it was a great mini getaway.

Perfect Wedding retreat!

We eloped and wanted somewhere romantic, beautiful, and secluded. This was it! Loved the cabin, the animals, and the space. Only thing I could comment on would be the bed. It was very hard and I prefer a softer mattress. But that is just me being picky!

50th wedding anniversary celebration

On a Monday to Friday stay, rain and the threat thereof forced (allowed) us to stay in the cabin from mid-afternoon on Tuesday until we departed on Friday morning. We were fully prepared for that if necessary, and we had a wonderful time. The cabin also had everything else we needed. There is plenty to do nearby if weather permits and you prefer.

Best Place We've Ever Stayed....Hands Down!

We loved our stay at buffalo bungalow. It was even more than we expected. If you're looking for a quiet getaway with all of the amenities, This is it! We enjoyed the hot tub & game room as well as the sauna & massage table. The property is absolutely stunning with the most amazing view. The Bisen, llamas, ponys & bunnies were an added bonus. I even had to facetime my grandbaby to show her, she was amazed! The porch kitty at the cabin was another added bonus & we had to spoil her with new toys before we left. Our host Cheryl was very informative & was very quick to respond to any questions. We will definitely be back again! I can't wait!

About the host

Hosted by Cheryl Hillis

Host profile image
My brothers & my husband had shared a vision of expanding my fathers buffalo ranch when additional property became available to purchase. With all our knowledge & experiences combine we have built 4 log homes & have been renting them out since 2004. All the furniture in this cabin has been handmade by the wood on the property! Even the covered wagon bed,(in Tatonka Lodge) that was custom built my my father. Once my husband retires from the US Army in about 6 yrs our dream will be to build our log cabin on the property & be more hands on. God has blessed us beyond our wildest dreams. We hope you love the mountains like we have all come to love being transplants from a very flat NY!

Why they chose this property

What makes this property unique

While staying at Buffalo Creek we feel you will really enjoy the peace & tranquility of being secluded on 65 acres. So many of our previous guest have wrote back & told us they had all these plans to sight see but then just loved hanging out in the cabin together enjoying the game room & seeing the miniature horse, buffalo, goats & llamas!
