Mountain Thanksgiving
We had a lovely stay.
Quiet relaxing and restoring.
We enjoyed the screened in porch on warm days and the gas fireplace on cool evenings.
We enjoyed our walks around the lake with the dogs.
Appreciated the warm throws on the couch the clean and welcoming home and the fenced in yard.

Relaxing Week
Great experience with the family. Enjoyed walking thru the woods to the creek, swimming in the pool, reading on the porch, playing games, family dinners together - rain or shine - It was an awesome week!
Any issues we had with the cabin were handled promptly by Susan.

Great Vacation Rental
What a great house! We have stayed at a few different houses in this neighborhood and this one was by far the best. The best part was how comfortable the furnishing were (including the bunk beds). The fenced in yard for our dogs was worth it's weight in gold. We enjoyed the deer we saw in the yard and drinking coffee on the screened in porch. Very relaxing trip and can't wait to go back!

Memorial Day Weekend
The cottage was just what we needed. Super close to a fishing hole and Laurel Creek. It was bigger than I expected and the game room for the kids was perfect. Great hiking!

Wonderful Stay
Laurel Creek Cottage was a great place to stay for a few weeks in the mountains. The house provided helpful information for the stay and enjoying the surrounding activities and local events. We could hear the waterfall below the cottage from the screened in porch and it made for a peaceful place to relax after hiking, shopping and other adventures. And with the great support from the property management we never had a worry or an issue.
