We mostly used this as a place to sleep while at an event nearby. The neighborhood is beautiful and the views from the house were fantastic. We took a walk around the yard and stream access and noted it would be a great place to stay for a longer time just to enjoy the views and bring kayaks.My only concern is that the floor just inside the front door is uneven and has a thick carpet pad that is either causing or attempting to smooth the unevenness. For anyone that is unsteady on their feet it could be a tripping hazard. That said I would not personally hesitate to stay here again in the future but there are people I would not stay here with for that reason.

Great location, creek in the back was a great place to cool off during the 90 degree temps we had during our stay. House did not have air conditioning, only a window unit in master bedroom. Grill outside was nice, used it often to cook. Only issue we had was the floor when you walk in the front door feels like a trampoline, it wasn't very solid. Overall it was good, and would probably stay again. We were there for little League World Series week.

Eastern States 100 Recovery Retreat

Came to the Pine Creek area to run the Eastern States 100 and this house was great for our base camp and especially for relaxing and recovering after the race. The back yard space was beautiful with easy access to Pine Creek. Sipping coffee on the dock and sun porch and soaking in the creek in the afternoon was perfect! The large common room was nicely furnished and allowed the whole group to gather and share stories from the long weekend. Would stay here again for sure!

This property is crying for some TLC and proper maintenance.

We booked this property to take advantage of the location and looked forward to exploring the Pine Creek Trail. But, upon arrival we were very disappointed in the condition of the home. The pictures on VRBO are VERY deceiving. Yes, the description is correct, but it didn't mention that the floor in the kitchen is sinking and the floorboards are popping up. The front doorknob fell off and my husband had to fix it, some start to a vacation. The outside furniture on the lawn is so old and rusty, come on. The carpet inside is beyond sanitary! You have to have superman strength to open the sliding door onto the screen porch. And, the entire grounds are infested with red ants and wasp nests. PLEASE get an exterminator! Whoever the owner payed to clean did a terrible job. It was cleaner when we left. The dishwasher doesn't work either. This could have been a nice stay, if the owner took better care of the place. Also, why don't you offer the use of the bicycles and kayak you have in your garage? That would have been nice, other properties do... Oh, the WiFi they have doesn't allow voice calls, just 911, but you can get text messages.Anyway, I don't recommend this property for a relaxing vacation.

"Creek House"

Our family loved our time at the "Creek House" as our 3 year old would say. Such a beautiful spot. Most of our time was spent down by the creek or the nearby bike trail. Perfect location for our weekend adventure. Thank you to Roxanne & family for letting us stay at your home.

We had a really great time getting away for the weekend. The weather wasn’t the best for fishing but we still made the best of it. The house was so charming, you really felt like it was home away from home. We will be back for another trip for sure.

A gorgeous retreat

We fell in love with the area the second that we entered the neighborhood and it only got better from there. The backyard of this house leads to a creek and Mountain View, you just can’t beat it! If you’re looking for an up-scale home, then this one may feel more dated to you, but if you like a homie feeling place that adds to nostalgia with games and VHS tapes, then look no further!
