Cool creek side cabin

It was a nice getaway for my son’s birthday and family time. We enjoyed exploring the creek and sitting around the fire pit. The cabin was a perfect distance from all amenities and Tweetsie Railroad. We will definitely plan a return trip.

Perfect Mountain Getaway

Our family needed a break from the busyness of life and from the heat and humidity of the Sandhills. This was the perfect retreat! The creek is everything- the view, the sound, the fresh trout! We had a relaxing and quiet weekend. Sherry and Rick were wonderful hosts and we hope to stay again in the near future.

Fun vacation with the grands!

We decided on this property due to it's close proximity to Tweetsie Railroad and Grand Father Mtn and it did not disappoint! We enjoyed this property so much...from the baby birds nest on the front porch, the beautiful interior and the tranquility of the creek while sitting on the decks in the back. The owners were great and even offered a code for discount tickets to Tweetsie, which was so appreciated! The only negative is I wish we could have stayed longer. In the words of my husband "it feels like we are staying with friends rather than a vacation rental".

Great property

We were 3 childhood friends celebrating our birthdays. Sherry and Rick are top notch hosts. They excelled at communicating with us and went above and beyond to make our stay one to remember. They left us cookies, a Happy Birthday sign and a delicious birthday cake. They truly care about their renters. The cabin was clean and comfortable. The setting along the creek is so peaceful. Thank you Sherry and Rick for sharing your cabin with us.

Best VRBO experience ever

Thank you to Rick and Sherry for an amazing stay! They were so gracious and attentive with their time and extremely helpful. The cabin is gorgeous, well appointed, clean, cozy and has amazing views of Howard’s creek and surrounding mountains. A very short drive to downtown Boone and easy access to everything this area offers. My son loved wading in the creek even though weather was not the best for fishing. We played games, read books, visited, and made precious family memories in the comfort and coziness of Creekside Cabin. Plan to visit more if my daughter decides on App State! Thanks again Rick and Sherry! Best experience with a VRBO rental in the 10 years I have been renting properties on this app.

A Wonderful Weekend Getaway!

My husband, teen daughter & her friend, and I really enjoyed Creekside Cabin! It was so cozy and clean, and the owners added special touches like delicious cookies for us on arrival, and a birthday banner hung because I had mentioned it was my husband’s birthday weekend! The beds were very comfortable, and the whole cabin is cozy! We especially loved sitting by the gas log fireplace! The creek behind the cabin is gorgeous, and trekking down to the creek was fun! We went snow tubing at Hawksnest, walked around downtown Boone, and had great Indian & Thai food using the hosts’ recommendations. Communication was perfect— Sherry was responsive and helpful if we needed anything. We will definitely come back!

Absolutely Perfect

Creekside Cabin was everything we had hoped! The property is beautiful with the creek right out back. The cabin itself was cozy, wonderfully equipped and immaculately clean. Add to that excellent communication/responsiveness from the host and delicious cookies waiting on the counter! We could not have been more pleased and can not wait to return!

Wonderful Thanksgiving Stay!

We stayed at Creekside Cabin over Thanksgiving and had a wonderful stay! Sherry and Rick were so responsive and answered all of our questions (and left warm cookies for us when we checked in, which were delicious and quickly eaten!) The kitchen had everything we needed for our Thanksgiving meal, and when we sat outside on the deck we could hear the river below. It was a great family vacation, and we will be back!

Great cabin, great hosts, great stay!

Terrific location – quiet cul-de-sac street close to activities, yet away from the traffic and noise. Clear running stream adjacent to rear of lot and plenty of outdoor seating areas. Quiet and peaceful – perfect for relaxing and unwinding. Rick and Sherry have made the cabin welcoming and comfortable. They have put lots of thought and care into this property to make your stay enjoyable and fun. Very nicely furnished and decorated with seasonal touches, and well equipped with all essentials – Kitchen and otherwise. Comfortable bed and linens. Overall, this is one of the best rentals we’ve made. No need to hesitate or second guess this option – book it, you won’t regret it.

Creek side Cabin

The property and cabin were very well appointed. There is an abundance of outdoor seating areas we would sit outside and listen to the creek rambling through the back of the property guest, the previous week caught their trout dinner in the creek. It is very well located to Blowing Rock and downtown Boone. We loved our stay, and will definitely be back. The owners make the most delicious cookies and you can order them to bring home with you after your trip. I highly recommend the toffee cookies!!

App State football weekend

Excellent place to stay for an App State game or any reason. Close to town for easy access, but you feel away from everything while relaxing on the back deck listening to the creek flow. Side note, the cookies are second to none.

About the host

Hosted by Rick Tobin and Sherry Street-Tobin

Host profile image
Sherry has lived in Boone since 1991 and Rick since 2000. We purchased Creekside Cabin in September 2020 and have enjoyed making it into a cozy cabin for our guests to enjoy. We love the High-Country area and all the outdoor adventures it offers. Feel free to contact us before and during your stay if you’d like recommendations for hiking, kayaking, dining, or other activities in the area. We look forward to hosting you for your stay!

Why they chose this property

We also live on Howard's Creek and love the area. We wanted to purchase the cabin becaue of it's proximity to our home so we can use it for when our 5 children and their families come to visit in addition to being close by to be responsive to our guests.

What makes this property unique

The key feature of this property is the proximity to the creek so guests can enjoy the relaxing sounds and sights offered by the creek. Two large back decks, partially covered and partially open allow you to enjoy the creek rain or shine. The cabin is on a 2 acre parcel so there is lots of room for accessing the creek and exploring the wooded area. The inside of the cabin is cozy with a gas log fireplace, comfortable beds with down duvets and crisp linens. The cabin is located only 5 minutes from a major grocery store, 10 minutes from downtown Boone and 10 minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway, but it has the feel of a remote get-a-way!
