We had a wonderful stay at this vacation home. The pond and kayaks were perfect for our needs, and the house was comfortable and clean. Thanks for a great stay!
Very clean. Comfortable. Some drawers in the master bedroom would be nice for clothes. Great patio, tables and chairs. Great fire pit area! Kitchen well stocked. Host super responsive.
Everything about the property was great. We really enjoyed the short ski trip with our kids. Thank you and we hope to be back in the summer to check out other local attractions.

Thank you Katarzyna! I think you'll find this location to be so much better in the summer~ The pond fountain, the creek, trails, privacy! It's so beautiful back in the woods there! Look forward to having you back!
We had a great time at Pine Creek Cove. The property is perfect, surrounded by woods, very secluded, and private. The home was spotless when we arrived, and is very well maintained. The pond was great for swimming. The trails were great for daily walks. Alicia is an excellent host, very friendly, and is very responsive. We will visit again!!
Great property and very cute home. The property is well secluded, the swimming pond was perfect for the kiddos, and the house was so well done. Great stay
Very nice host and the place was clean and cute. It provided a good location for us to go out for day trips in the surrounding are. The outside area was so relaxing. We needed every night by sitting outside.
Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
Great place! Very serene and homey. Only suggestion would be to have extra garbage bags available and a couple of full length mirrors. Other than that, the accommodations were absolutely perfect and could not have a better host!!
Very clean, updated, spacious, and all around wonderful vacation home. Would recommend to anyone traveling in this area. Especially if you are looking for privacy. Pricing is beyond fair.

About the host
Hosted by Alicia Cook
My husband and I live locally with our 3 children. I grew up in this area and have grown to love nearly everything about living in the woods! We own several businesses that keep us very busy but love hosting guests in our vacation rentals and small motel. It's so wonderful to get people out of the city and into the fresh air to relax and enjoy nature.
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with this property many, many years ago. It's close to everything we needed it to be but secluded enough to give us a sense of privacy. We have family in the area and decided to keep it in the family for many years to come. We wanted to update and renovate it to be everything that we love about living in a small town.
What makes this property unique
It's private and spacious yet close to restaurants/grocery stores. The long winding creek makes the pond area a quiet relaxing place to sit and reflect. The home sleeps 10 and is fully furnished for our guest's enjoyment! Newly rebuilt Dublin General Store only a few miles away!
