Dog-Friendly Creek-Front Getaway w/ a Private Hot Tub, Wood Fireplace, Free WiFi

Sneak away to this classic and cozy creek-front home where you're sure to find something for everyone in your family or travel group. This two-story vacation rental is right on Fightingtown Creek and features a nicely-equipped, island kitchen with a breakfast bar, a dining table for meals or family game nights, and a living area with plenty of comfortable seating, a wood-burning fireplace, cable-equipped, flatscreen TV, and a desk and chair if you need to do a little work or remote schooling while you're away. On the lower-level of this home, you'll find a recreation room with an additional TV and seating area, a game table, minifridge, and access out to the furnished patio. Outside on this level, slip into your private hot tub for a soothing afternoon soak, or head up one level to the wraparound deck with a porch swing, picnic table, and gas grill for summertime family cookouts! Take a short stroll down to the water's edge, or gather together in the yard and watch the stars come out in the glow of the firepit.

What's nearby:
While you're only six miles from the heart of town, this creek-front home has a distinctly secluded feel to it - perfect for anyone seeking a little peace and quiet.

Less than 10 miles east, Lake Blue Ridge Marina offers pontoon boat rentals for exciting days on the water, or you can paddle out for restful days at your own pace in a kayak or canoe. For even more outdoor fun, the Ocoee Whitewater Center, where guests can hike to the famous suspension bridge, is just 22 miles north.

The house is dated, but was clean and the location was good.

We loved all the room it provided.
We loved sitting by the creek with the rapids and beautiful setting.
We loved the hot tub.
We loved all the kitchen gadgets.
We couldn't find the hair blow dryer.

We look forward to welcoming you back soon!

We stayed at this home for a week while on vacation. It was very clean, comfortable and had everything that we would need. Having 2 living areas was nice because the older kids could hang in the basement area and play board games or watch TV. It offered a lot of privacy and the creek was beautiful! The back porch was a great area to have your morning coffee and eat outside for dinner. The fire pit provided entertainment in the evening for roasting marshmallows. I would definitely recommend this home for anyone wanting to vacation in the Blue Ridge area. It was also very close to downtown and all of the activities this area has to offer.

Great place, relatively near to every point of interest, and the town. House itself is very quaint and cozy, had every single thing that you could possibly need or want for your stay. Easy access, very quiet, very private, kids LOVED that they had an entire floor to themselves!
This was excellent overall. We are definitely coming back for a few more days.

What a nice location! Other than a few updates needed in the house (mattresses, appliances, bathrooms) my family had a great time! Creek was awesome and the porch was perfect!!! Thanks for a great getaway!
Adriane Y. Jul 2021
The sound of the river from the deck, the secluded spot that is not far from downtown, the hot tub: it was all perfect. The house itself was clean and well equipped. I’ll definitely stay here again.

Very nice/clean traditional mountain cabin. The house is easy to find and within a 10 minute drive of Blue Ridge. The house is relatively close to neighbors but is quiet. It sits on a nice a wooded lot overlooking the upper reaches of Fightingtown creek. The water is rarely over a few feet deep which makes it nice to hike up and down stream. Though it is a small creek we did manage to catch a few small trout, the biggest of which was about 12" in length. The walkway/stairs down to the creek is new and relatively easy to climb.

The house has a decent sized covered porch over looking the creek. A picnic table on the porch is great for outdoor meals. There is a new grill as well as a small fire pit.

The electric reclining couches in the family room are very comfortable. The kitchen is on the small size but is well appointed. There isn't a distinct inside dining area but between a small table near the couches and kitchen island there is enough room for eight people to eat. The downstairs family room is roomy and opens up to the lower porch with a hot tub.

The internet speed is adequate but there is little to none ATT cell coverage.

The only issues are the décor is just a bit dated/worn and the main living area is a bit dark, primarily due to dark paneled walls. And, the beds are a bit soft.

We believe this is a new listing and with a few more touches (it's obvious the owners/management/housekeeping are working to get it updated) would be a five-star rental. We'd rent again...nice and comfy, especially for the price point. With a few more finishing touches, it would be perfect!

Manager response:
Hello Michael, We are glad that you enjoyed your stay, and hope to host you again soon!!
