This is a beautiful property. The hosts pay attention to details in a way that made me smile. The linens and other comforts are all top quality. I did not stay with any small children, but we noticed that there were some toys and books in a closet - very thoughtful for families that might stay there. There is a lovely patio with a fire pit. Access to the water with kayaks supplied. We were there for a family event; this would be a great location for a getaway - very peaceful and oh, so comfortable.

Wonderful weekend stay!

Creek Retreat is a beautiful and peaceful getaway! I really appreciate the little details that made it such a great stay (snacks, fresh eggs, toiletries, toys, games, and linens/towels). My kids had fun on the dock trying to catch crabs. The area is great for nature lovers. This was a nicely priced, well desocrated & clean home. Would love to stay here again for a longer time!

Hidden Gem

This place is the bee knees. Tucked away in a quiet woods setting. Georgia is probably the best host Ive ever had, honestly. Cute, clean, has everything you need and then some. Dock is a short walk to enjoy peace, quiet and kayaking.
