This is such a beautiful cabin! My kids absolutely loved their stay and created beautiful family memories at the creek! We found the cabin to be warm, comfortable, and having all the amenities you could want. It was a perfect stay and we enjoyed exploring Craig County! Would highly recommend.
My family loved this place! It was very accommodating for a family of four with two toddlers. The kids had just as much fun as we did! The owner was very communicative and responded quickly! I highly recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway.

Your family is always welcome at our Cabin, we are happy your family enjoyed the stay
The house is set in a beautiful location, and it has all of the amenities needed for a mountain weekend retreat. We could really tell that the home had either recently been built or restored, because there is a strong finishing odor, but after opening the screened windows for a short time, the odor goes away.The home is very clean and at the right price for the area.
Place was very clean. LOVED the toys they had for the kids. Host was quick to respond to the messages. The WiFi was really quick. Overall a good experience.
What a lovely place to stay. My best friends from Oklahoma came up to visit their daughter and we met at the cabin for a reunion. It was a perfect place and we all were in love with it. Everything was lovely and quiet. Definitely a 10 out of 10. We will definitely be going back in the future
The house was wonderful! We came to the area for a 50th birthday weekend - 2 couples -House was perfect for usWe were able to cook and relax, we loved all the porches! Lots of hang out space! Very clean and comfortable Beds were great!Location was perfectClose to Dragon’s Tooth and McAfee Knob trailheads! We hiked both! We did McAfee Knob at 5am to catch the sunrise at the knob, we were at the trailhead in less than 10 minWe wen to Salem, Roanoke and New CastleCommunication with James was easy.Highly recommend a stay here and if you’re into hiking this is a prime location for that!If you make it we left notes on local gangs in the guest book
So clean and immaculately decorated. In the middle of nowhere but 3 miles to the closest gas station and kid friendly restaurant bar/grill. Comfortable beds and toys and games for the kids were provided. We also enjoyed the music collection. Would recommend to anyone
Very clean cabin with many extras. (Books, cds, games and kids toys) Also a flat grassy area where kids could play soccer or baseball. A front porch with rockers and a view of the mountains. About 2.5 miles from a small bar/ restaurant. Great cabin for families.
We absolutely loved our stay! The home was welcoming, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The location is perfect—right by the trails and just up the road from a great spot for food and drinks. We’d happily return!Private Feedback to Host: (kept just for them)The only thing I’d suggest is upgrading the towels, pillows, and tissue. For the price point, I was expecting higher quality. The towels didn’t dry well and left lint, and the pillows and toilet paper felt a bit lacking. Otherwise, everything else about the stay was wonderful and much appreciated.
The cabin was very quiet, just what we came for during our sisters' weekend getaway as a meeting place between North Carolina and Ohio. It was very clean (that's important and easily critiqued for me). The photos don't do the nice cabin justice. It's new, and still has a new smell as of October 2025. And unusual for new construction, the pretty wood floors are creeky; rustic feeling but very noticable in the quiet space.Not shown/explained is one bathroom is downstairs with two bedrooms, and one bathroom is upstairs with the two single beds. The kitchen appliances were new, clean, and nice quality. And it was stocked with the helpful basics so easy to use. Small enough to be efficient but not too small to be uncomfortable. For going out, one small restaurant (on Door Dash) was a few mintues drive towards New Castle, with surprisingly good food. Instacart also delivers.The black blinds were nice to make it dark for sleeping. And the sound of the sound of the babbling brook/creek in the back was tranquil. Especially nice to enjoy it from the screened in porch (something else the pictures don't do justice for.)Could use a bit more technology, like something Bluetooth for music playing (there's a 3-disc CD player) or even EV charging would make it more applealing since it's in the mountain with the nearest charging being 20-30 minutes in Roanoke. Sweet memories were made of slowing down and enjoying the company through this appropriately named Retreat by the Creek.
Cabin was BETTER than described, very welcoming, super clean, with a well equipped kitchen plus everything we needed for our stay!! Perfect location for a ladies hiking trip as it is only 2mi from the Dragon Tooth Trail Head Parking lot AND not far from the Mcafee Knob and Tinker Cliffs trail heads. Great host too!!! We will be back for sure.
