About this property

Creekfront mountain cabin on Tumbling Creek with 2 bed, 2 bath and dog friendly!

Built in 1900, this home was originally a railway engineer home.
But has since been completely remodeled. The property includes
80 feet of creekbank on Big Tumbling Creek. No license needed to
fish. You can also swim and play in the creek. **Note the banks of
the creek are steep and may require some climbing to lower rocks.

House: sleeps six people, 1 King in master, two twins in 2nd
bedroom and a queen sleeper sofa in the living room. There are
two full bathrooms with showers. Fully updated kitchen with
brand new appliances and butcher block countertops. Keurig
coffee machine. Laundry room with washer/dryer. New central air
and heat pump.

Two decks overlook Tumbling Creek providing plenty of relaxing
and entertaining space. We are DOG FRIENDLY. The large decks can
be closed off to let pets roam free. Two dog max. A crate is
provided for a medium size (appx 50 lbs) for your convenience.
There is a smaller crate in the outdoor shed that can be used too.

Free wi-fi, Plenty of ROKU TVs. Keyless, smart lock entry. Outdoor
security cameras. Towels, toiletries and sheets also included.

Secluded comfort and privacy is what you’ll find at Creekberry. Your home away from home.

Home sits on side of mountain with beautiful view of Tumbling Creek and provides a very tranquil environment listening to the running water. It snowed a couple of days while here which created a picturesque view, just like a Christmas postcard.Home is very clean and welcoming with excellent heating for those cold days. We had all the amenities we needed, and host is very quick to respond if you have any questions.Looking forward to our next visit here.

We had family business in Saltville, so my husband, myself and our 65lb Standard Poodle stayed at this property in May 2026. It was exactly as portrayed on the VRBO site. We particularly loved sitting on the covered front porch and listening to the creek. All of the porches/decks have gates so there are no worries about keeping your dogs safe. The fencing is high enough that we did not worry about our Poodle being able to get over it. Inside, the house is nicely furnished and has everything that we needed. A lot of thought was put into providing what guests would like and need for a stay in the mountains, like blankets for wrapping up to sit on the porch, an electric fireplace to warm up, and lots of coffee and tea for the Keurig and kettle. A regular coffee pot is also provided. I saw that several reviews indicated that this is on a busy street, but that is not the case. There is vehicle traffic, but the cars are few and far between. Do note that most travel well above the posted speed though. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Creekside and will stay again when our travels bring us back to the area.

Place was spotless and included many extras like coffee pods and small size toiletries. Beds were super comfortable and the decks over looking the creek were excellent place to relax. Only suggestion would be to install reflectors for the driveways in the dark and to add some basic details about parking since it isn't super obvious if you're arriving late. We would definitely stay again!!

The place was in a lovely setting with a fishable creek across the road, great for us 4 trout fishermen. It was spotless, comfy, and easy to use for prepping meals. You do need to be active to climb up and down all the steps to get in and out, but it was good exercise for 4 aging seniors. And Terri was a very helpful and communicative host.

We had a great stay here! Clean and comfortable cabin and a nice deck to sit and relax while enjoying the sights and sounds of the creek. Easy check-in. GPS in the area was spotty for us, so it might be helpful to save or print your directions before you arrive.

Perfect Getaway

The owner really thought of everything. The house was beautifully decorated inside to match the rural setting. We loved the location because it was right in the middle of the places we wanted to visit: Virginia Creeper Trail in Damascus, Hungry Mother State Park, the Channels Natural Area Preserve, and Abingdon.

Above and Beyond

Our stay at Creekberry was very relaxing. They provided a clean and comfortable place for us and our dog Stella. Rarely will you find the level of amenities and hospitality that we received. Just take your food and enjoy the super clean home and the deck to enjoy the beautiful area and listening to the creek. Would definitely stay again if we find ourselves in the area.

Wonderful cabin on the creek

We have stayed in many rental houses from different companies and this was by far one of the nicest ones we have ever stayed in. Well stocked and very comfortable. FYI if you have a fear of spiders, be warned they love the front door. We will definitely stay here again when we come back to southwestern virginia.

Nice little house on a stream. Nice white noise. Water heater is a little small and internet goes out every once in a while. Peaceful and quiet area. Old but upkept house.

Great location

The location was great secluded but with a few other house around. Right next to a creek you can fish or play in. The house was very clean and had everything we needed; bedding, dishes, cleaning supplies, and even coffee. There were even a few board games and coloring books for the kids. And the checkers table was a big hit as well.

Perfect home base for our state park visits

It was the perfect home base for our visit to the state parks. It was cute and cleanly, plenty of room for more than just us two. We went to Grayson highlands state park and saw the wild ponies. It was also central of multiple other state parks like hungry mother, breaks interstate, natural tunnel, wilderness road, and clinch river. We loved listening to the sound of the creek while we had our morning coffee. Would absolutely stay again in the summer.
