Vacation or unwind in beautiful Northeast Tennessee. A writer's inspiration, an artists haven or a book reader's dream retreat. 1-1/2 miles down the road from Pulitzer Prize-winning author Alex Haley's former home and farm. 3 miles from historic Downtown Clinton where you will feel like you have stepped back in time. 1960’s drug store with the old fashion soda fountain. World famous antique shops. Restored operating movie theater. Dine in an old fashion diner.

Close to restaurants and shopping yet located in a private countryside setting. Our location is perfect, only 34 minutes from Knoxville's McGhee Tyson Airport, 3 miles from the famous Smithsonian sponsored Museum of Appalachia, 10 minutes from Norris Dam with 34,200 acres of prize lake fishing & boating activities, 15 miles from Oak Ridge & it's famous nuclear and science museums, 20 mins from many of Knoxville's main attractions such as Neyland Stadium home to the TN Vols, the trendy Market Square with open air concerts in the summer and the beautiful Turkey Creek district with top name shopping and restaurants.

This area has become very popular for ATV/Razr riders with three large mountain trail riding establishments (with 4 wheel rentals) within 30 minutes of cabin, Windrock Park, (314 miles of trails) Brimstone (300 miles of trails) and Royal Blue (600 miles of trails). If you're more interested in the two wheel motorcycle enjoyment (or for the sports car enthusiast) the world famous "Tail of the Dragon" which connects TN to NC with 318 curves in 11 miles, is a road not to be missed and all within a short drive of your stay.

Cabin on the Creek is also less than an hour from Pigeon Forge, Dollywood and The Great Smoky Mountains National Park, plus the famous Biltmore Estate in Asheville, NC is only two hours away.

We stayed for several days while attending a cousin’s wedding in Clinton. The host was great. The property is so nicely furnished. My kids enjoyed exploring the creek. We added a WV mug to the cabin’s Starbuck’s States mug collection. AC worked wonderfully. Next time we’re visiting family in town we hope to stay again.

Rocky Top Relaxation

We really enjoyed our time here. It's very peaceful and scenic. We enjoyed watching the deer and turkeys roam through the backyard. The sunroom and front porch were great for relaxing. The weather didn't allow for roasting marshmallows but maybe next time.

We really enjoyed our stay at Cabin by the Creek. The kitchen had everything you would need. The weather was cold and we enjoyed the fireplace. We had quests for dinner and the four season room was warm and pleasant to set out there and eat. I hope we can go back again.

Perfect Cabin

Our group of 6 traveled to see our son at the University of Tennessee. This cabin was perfectly distanced from the city and gave us a quiet retreat to enjoy cooking out and enjoying ourselves. We had plenty of space and found the cabin to be very cozy with everything we needed. It was just perfect and we will be staying again and again.

Great location

Great location close to town but very quiet once you are at the house. The kitchen was well furnished with pots, pans, and cleaning supplies. We caught several fish but it is hard to get into the water so most of the fishing was done from the bank. The sectioned off fenced yard was great. Thank you for sharing your house with us!

Relaxing getaway near Knoxville, TN

This cabin provides a peaceful and enjoyable getaway. This home has both a cozy enclosed sunporch and open back porch providing ample areas to relax. The sunporch provided a great space to work on jigsaw puzzles, play games, dine, and read. The mini split ac on the sunporch kept the area adequately cool. We appreciated the updated appliances. Overall, a great place to stay.

Piece of Paradise!

My wife and our 3 grand kids stayed here for our trip to Kentucky and Tennessee. What an absolute gem, the hosts couldn't be any better!! Easy check in, answered our questions and were extremely prompt!! The rental was more than we could have hoped for as well the hosts. My wife and I are hoping to go back for a full week (if not two) and just enjoy what there is to offer there. Thanks again for the wonderful hospitality and hope to be back in the future!!

Cabin weekend

Beautiful cabin property with fenced yard and well appointed lodging. The property is dog friendly with a very comfortable air conditioned sunroom for their use. Note that dogs are not allowed inside the main home but there are recliners and a TV to hang out with your pet. This was not a problem for us but might be for a pet that is very anxious separated from family. Cozy and homey and very clean -- highly recommend for a laid back vacation stay.

My Home Away From Home

I just returned from staying at the cabin for a whole month!! What a lovely place to wake up to day after day! This is my fourth time staying there and it never disappoints. My 2 dogs love the divided fenced yard and we loved roasting hot dogs in the evenings on the fire pit. They have great outdoor lighting if you’re like me and want to be outside at night with the dogs. Darren, the property manager was so helpful when I had questions or needed help. The cabin is close to many fast food places, Walmart, and not too far away is Knoxville, Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Couldn’t ask for anything better!

Such a clean great place to stay

The check in process was so smooth and seamless. Craig and Kathy were great and very responsive. The place was spotless. Very clean inside and so cozy. We have stayed at numerous VRBO’a and I don’t know of any that were stocked so well (dishes, utensils, etc). The yard overlooking the creek was so beautiful and relaxing. We didn’t see too much wildlife, But we did enjoy the quiet and peacefulness of the yard. There is a house next door pretty close, but you don’t hear them or see them when on the porch. The beds were comfortable and the fire pit was awesome. You are very close to shopping and restaurants. Craig and Kathy offer great recommendations and information about the area. Golden Girls had a great breakfast and the Mexican restaurant was great and cheap. Wonderful stay. Thank you for sharing this beautiful home with us
