We loved it!!! Very peaceful. Just what we needed for a short get away. We will be back again. Hopefully soon! ##### Sabrina P. Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 21 Jul 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location #### Weekend get away Doug was very kind and helpful through this whole process. The cabin was nice but smaller than I expected. The water in the shower was hard to control because it would get so hot when it was on cold basically. Other than that I was very pleased with our stay we enjoy going to up the creek weekly so staying close by and being able to enjoy the river for a few nights being close by was great for our family! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kaley P. 17 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Weekend Stay! We had our first women's retreat here and enjoyed it very much! We only had one major issue. When we first got there, there was not any hot water in the shower. It was hot in the sinks but not the shower which was odd. However, I really appreciated the quickness of the maintenance coming to fix it, and the communication of the owners was great when I reached out about it. The water did get hot for a little bit and then went right back to luke warm. After being on a creek all day, nice hot shower is needed and wanted. We had a total of 7 women taking showers, so we took that into consideration but even after waiting for a period of time, water stayed luke warm. My only other compliant would be the amount of spider webs outside on the porches and furniture and a snakeskin hanging from the underneath the bottom of the cabin. We understand its nature so there's not much you can do to control these things, but a good deep clean outside wouldn't hurt. Other than that, we loved it here and the inside was very clean and well kept. My family and I come here at least once a summer to float or stay, so we will definitely be back!! Up the Creek is the place to be!!! ##### Kaley P. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Sheri 25 Sept 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication I was impressed at how clean the property was. This property is a cute little cabin tucked into the trees, lots of privacy with outdoor seating and a fire pit. It is quite and peaceful. ##### Sheri Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kimberly T. 24 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Getaway My husband and I rented this as a small getaway close to home. It was so nice and clean with a beautiful view. We cooked out and made s’mores and then the next day we went kayaking which was a fun experience! We will be back again next year! ##### Kimberly T. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Linda J. 11 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Definitely recommend. This was a great weekend getaway. The cabin was nice and had everything we needed. Doug was quick to respond and the ladies at Up The Creek were very friendly. If your not into kayaking (it was my first time but it turns out I’m a pro 😂) the creek is just across the street and a perfect spot to just take your chairs and a cooler and relax. We will definitely be back and hopefully for longer than a weekend. ##### Linda J.
