About this property

A Beautiful Cabin on a Nice Wide Creek! FREE WiFi/ ROKU TV

If you need a place to get away from all the stress, look no further 'Laurel Creek' is where you want to rest! This cabin is charming and has a great view of the creek.

We have security cameras outside of cabin and are notified when guest arrive. All alarms will be turned off, upon arrival. Only outside camera will be active 24/7

No party's are allowed and if more than allotted number of guest stay overnight, deposit will not be refunded.

We have installed a whole house water filtration system, so no hard water that tastes and looks bad or has odors. Installed 10/20 /18.

The smoke-free cabin is decorated very tastefully with country charm. You can sit back on one of the rockers and take in a nice book, or just take a swing on the porch with a loved one with a nice cold glass of lemonade, while listening to the rippling creek.

There is a wrap-around porch with a private porch off the master bedroom, a great view of the creek! The kids will love the creek, just look under a few rocks and discover all sorts of critters. Bring a pole and try some fishing, no license is required.

You might even see a beaver or turkey depending on the season.. Leave some corn for deers as they do come in the yard to feed and drink quite often.

End your day by relaxing in the jacuzzi on our deck, while doing some stargazing!
IT'S AMAZING!

Cabin in Murphy suburbs
Nice cabin next to babbling creek with great back yard and amenities. Saw some wild creatures including a red fox. Interior is well appointed with cozy furnishings and decorations. Ample towels for bathing and hot tubbing. Kitchen adequately supplied with cooking utensils and pots.

Cozy
This place was set back off a quiet street and very comfortable. It had everything we needed. We had our dog with us and he was able to run around the yard which was nice. I had my morning coffee sitting in the upper balcony watching the dog play below in the fall early morning mist.. the sounds of the creek were also really nice❤️

Not great but ok
Overall we had an ok stay. The home was very nice and had conveniences for a family. Fishing on the property was the selling point for us, but there were no fish in the creek. The water was low enough for my kids to play in it though. There was a lot of pet hair over the seating in the main area of the home and my family was eaten alive by small black bugs in the house. The beds in the two bedrooms were squeaky and a bit uncomfortable. The owner was responsive.

never again
Peeling paint on the steps leading to the wrap-around deck as well as peeling paint on the entire deck. Of the five chairs around the fire pit, two had broken arms. Musty odor in the house as well as the musty fresh towels. Water in upstairs bedroom sink had air in the lines both nights.Hot tub had strong chemical odor and left a film on the skin. Downstairs couch was old and broken. Other issues: No fan above the stove so when whatever spill was left on the electric eye burned off, there was no fan to clear it up. I have never been in any house without a fan over the stove. Major issue was the water. On Sunday, in the middle of my daughter’s shower and the water stopped completely at 9:15am but we had to be out by 10am. I checked the sinks & bathroom faucets and there was no water there. Husband and I had taken a quick shower that morning and we both noticed there was a film from the water on the skin. We are not sure if the water is well water, but it acted that way. Also, not sure how often the hot tub water is replaced because it took 6 washes to get the funk out of our beach towels and swimsuits when I got home. I had put the bed sheets in the washer and added detergent prior to my daughter’s shower so it would be the last thing we do. However, I did not start the laundry because I was not going to be responsible for a new washer since there was no water. I left a note for housekeeping on the frig so they would see it. Worst VRBO ever!

Nice remote older cabin
The property was fine for me and my 2 dogs. Although there were 2 bedrooms/baths, I only used upstairs bedroom/bath. The property is pie shaped so a bit narrow in back with creek running down left side. The hot tub was ok but cover seemed awkward since you have to fold and lift off manually and it's not the lightest. The hot tub appeared to be recently shocked so sentiment was sitting on bench and floor but water was clear and perfect temperature. The house worked for our needs, especially liked oversized washer/drier that came in convenient with dogs. The only thing that shocked me is I had to move some electronic plugin, next to kitchen table, so I could plug my laptop in. I moved it to another plug outlet close by. When I was packing up, I went to move the electronic plugin back to its original location but it was gone. I left cabin locked anytime I was off property and at night so someone must have accessed cabin while I was out. Just very strange because I didn't have any notice of this. I have no idea why someone would remove an electronic plugin from property.

About the host

Host profile image
Hello, we are Tim and Kathy Shearer and are the owners of Laurel Creek Cabin. We live in sunny south Florida with our three beautiful daughters. We love the warm weather and beach here, but we also love to get away and go to the mountains and stay at Laurel Creek. We decided to let others stay at our lovely cabin in 2004. Of course many of our close friends and family jumped into the offers we gave to them. They all loved it and that's when we opened it to all to enjoy. We hope you will be our next satisfied guest....God Bless....Tim & Kathy

Why they chose this property

We decided to buy in this location because of it being in the tri-state area, meaning within minutes to TN, NC, and GA. We also liked the peacefulness and all the many places to see and do in the area. We had been coming to this area for five years and decided just to buy since we loved it so much.

What makes this property unique

On site fishing, tubing, and wading in the creek along with the campfires at night roasting marshmellows and star gazing in hot tub
