Peaceful creekside location with all the amenities of home! Sue was very accommodating and a pleasure to communicate with. We rented all three adjoining properties and they were perfect for our large group. We will definitely be back!

This is a really great property. Central to lots of fun activities but you could just as easily stay at the cabin all day! House was immaculate, very well laid-out for families, and the creek running behind was so soothing and beautiful (Not to mention entertaining). The cabin was also well-appointed-there was absolutely everything we needed. Sue was in contact daily to make sure we had everything we needed. 10/10 recommend!! One thing to note-not necessarily a drawback-is that there is a campground across the creek and other cabins are quite close. Totally fine by us but if you are looking for ultra-private or secluded, it’s something to consider.

Loved our stay at Water’s Edge! The creekside location is unbeatable, with lots of comfortable seating options to sit by the creek and take in the views. It was very close to the park entrance and you can tube all the way back to the cabin! The cabin was thoughtfully stocked, from games and activities to plenty of clean towels and a pack ‘n play for the little one. We will definitely stay here again. Sue was awesome! Lots of proactive communication and very responsive. We will be back next summer for sure!

This was a wonderful experience and beautiful stay! I could sit all day in the back porch and admire the views. Sue was quick to respond and friendly. We had everything we needed from night one. Would definitely go back and highly recommend.

Great stay for 3 families with kids ages 4-12. So many fun things to do at the cabin and the backyard with the creek was so relaxing for the adults and fun for the kids. Highly recommend!

We came to the area to ride motorcycles/slingshot and the home was spectacular. The back porch beside the river was one of our favorite things. We enjoyed morning coffee, grilling and an outside evening fire. This space is very well equipped, has beautiful landscaping and was centrally located for our purposes. We thank you!

Find us

Our property is very easy to access from town. Your drive is flat from town to house. Flat circular gravel drive with plenty of parking. Please enter and exit the creek from our property only and (out of respect) please do not wander into neighbors yards or climb on their river bank. Once in the creek, you can wander anywhere in the creek though.
