About this cabin rental

If you are looking for a stream side cabin you will not find a better location anywhere. Elk Creek Retreat is located on Elk Creek which has excellent trout fishing, is a State stocked trout stream, and is rated as the second cleanest stream in all of North Carolina. Open the windows and fall asleep to the sound of the stream which runs directly behind the cabin.

The cabin was amazing. It was in great location and the stream was easily accessible. Loved everything about the cabin. The only issues we had were that there were quite a few flies and gnats inside the house, none of the soap dispensers by the 3 sinks had soap in them (in fact one just had water in it), and just as an FYI for future guests, shower accessories like shampoo/conditioner/body wash/extra TP are not included. The linens/towels were clean and plentiful, the bed was comfortable, there was Dawn and Laundry Detergent which was nice as we ended up using the washer after spending the evening by the fire pit. One other thing to note, we forgot to bring wood for the fire pit and wood is not provided. There was a number to call to get wood delivered but when we called it, the poor guy who answered said he was too old to deliver wood and that he has not done that in years. Don't let any of this deter anyone though-we would totally stay here again!

Our second stay at the Elk Creek Retreat and we just love this cozy spot on the water. Very clean, well stocked kitchen, perfect for a quiet weekend with our pup.

We really enjoyed the cabin and the location. The only issues were the host was not quickly responsive (the day of, someone should be available to answer within an hour or so for incoming guests); we messaged early on asking about the indoor/outdoor fireplaces (whether they were gas or firewood), we received a message that indoor was gas and outdoor was wood, when we arrived there was a note that you could pay for firewood for the outdoor fireplace (and it was not available on the property, you had to message someone to deliver it). I feel this should have been addressed when I asked about the fireplaces, so we could bring our own wood with us. Also, there was an error code on the hot tub, but there were no instructions in the house on how to fix it. We had to google it and eventually got it figured out. Other than that, no issues. We had a great time. We did fish the stream but did not catch anything - we walked several 100 yards in each direction.
