I loved the cabin - it was very clean and had ample supplies. I loved that there were board games and every kitchen utensil you could think of for a rental home. The aesthetic details are very well thought out and the beds are very comfortable.

Summer Time on Horn Mountain

We had an amazing time on Horn Mountain at Penny Creek Cabin. We saw about 100 deer, wild turkeys, and otters. We went on hikes, swam in swimming holes, saw waterfalls, and fished. Perfect time to unplug and get away. Susan was very helpful with everything we needed.

Amazing cabin!

We rent a cabin every year for spring break, always in a different location. This was our fifth year and this was the NICEST, CUTEST cabin we’ve stayed in. Super clean, well appointed, and so peaceful. I gave the communication four stars only because I tried to inquire about getting refunded on the pet fee since we didn’t bring our dog and never heard back or saw a refund. BUT otherwise, great. Location was four stars only because my kids complained about the distance we had to go just to get some groceries etc, but that’s part of the experience!

Beautiful Cabin- Well Off The Beaten Path

Cabin and surroundings are beautiful. The furniture & styling -very cool. Great communication from the owner. The bed(s) are not very comfortable. The road to get to this cabin is very winding and long and well off the beaten path. Love the firepit & outdoor lighting. If you are looking to stay put and not venture out everyday- this cabin is perfect.

Long Fall Weekend Getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Fantastic stay! Communication was fantastic as there was a brush fire on the mountain right before we arrived. The team kept in touch and reached out multiple times to make sure we arrived safe. House was perfect size for my husband, dog, and myself. It was immaculate. Hard to find in the dark but comfy and cozy. When wifi was an issue (football season) one night I reached out and less than 10 mins later it was fixed! We did multiple hikes and the house had everything we needed to stay in for all our meals. Bed was comfortable and I highly recommend this house.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My 4 year old son and my father who is 69 spent Labor Day weekend at Penny Creek Cabin. This was our first trip to the mountains for my son, Solomon. We had a wonderful time. The house was amazing and perfect for what we needed for the weekend getaway. We enjoyed listening to the creek that flows next to the house and hiking the trails around the house as well as grilling out and watching the deer who were grazing right next to the deck. We went to Tweetsie Tailroad on the Saturday we were there and the house was close enough to many different places. September 3rd was my 38th birthday and mySon and I went to enjoy the amenities that the community offered. We rode the paddle boats and walked the trails and he enjoyed the playground. It was overall a memorable and special weekend and we thank you so much for making it possible. Hope to visit again soon.
