    Great to have the roomy kitchen to cook. The screened porch view over the creek is a lovely place to relax. The location has plenty of fresh air and quiet. The creek is very nice. Note if you must have do online meetings or make calls using the WiFi, the signal is weak since the location is in a deep valley.

    This cabin was perfect for the two of us. We found the cabin to be well stocked and very clean. There were amble towels, the bed was comfortable, and the kitchen had what we needed. There is a grocery store about 10-12 minutes away. We had a nice dinner t in downtown Boone which was about 20 minutes away. My husband thoroughly enjoyed the creek and fishing. I loved relaxing in the hot tub and having access to wifi so that I could get my work done even though I was on vacation. We are thrilled with our stay and rate it 10/10.

    We booked the trout retreat as a long weekend getaway. This was just before a crippling winter storm hit most of the southeast. The manager’s communication with us in the days leading up to our arrival was excellent, including keeping us informed on the maintenance status of the hot tub, as well as offering provisions and concessions ahead of the winter storm.When we arrived, everything was as advertised. There was plenty of cookware, glassware, and utensils for us to eat in for all of our meals.Everything was clean, tidy, and in order. Our stay was during extreme cold temperatures, and this led to a large temperature differential between downstairs and the loft where we slept.There were plenty of towels, soap and shampoo supplied. There was a dedicated hot tub towel basket with plenty of towels. We used the laundry facility downstairs and that worked great also.We experienced issues with the hot tub being overheated, but there was maintenance staff on site when we arrived installing a part they had just received that afternoon. This leads me to believe that if there wasn’t a large snowstorm, preventing a technician getting to the house, arrangements would have been made to repair the hot tub immediately. In other words everyone was very responsive and even made accommodations for us to use the guest house hot tub instead.Lastly and most meaningfully to us, given the roads were really bad the day of our departure, our hosts worked with us on departure time.

    We had a great stay at this little cabin. It’s just off a small creek, which I think they call a river, that is stocked with trout. We didn’t fish but all the equipment was available for use if we wanted. There wasn’t any cel service so make sure you print out the directions on how to get there and how to get in before you get there. Once you’re there though the WiFi was great if you do need to make a call. There was a slight communication error on our dates but the owner was very responsive and made sure we were taken care of.

    We were so happy at Trout Retreat for our long weekend away from home. The cabin was just the right amount of space for the 2 of us and our 2 little dogs. The cabin was very well appointed… we cooked all our meals and except for packing our 2 good knives and a meat free cutting board, we found everything we needed. We used the hot tub several times a day, enjoyed the ambience of the electric fireplace, found the smart tv too smart for us. We slept well listening to Elk Creek, and spent hours reading on the porch and walking along the river enjoying the changing colors.It was just the re-set we needed.The cabin is well used, obviously loved, just a touch funky and decorated in ‘cabin theme’ to the max. It was a really fun change of pace.

    Absolutely stunningly perfect property, so clean and well-managed! This was the loveliest get-away in the woods and mountains. The cabin was exactly as described; it really exceeded my expectations. I recommend it highly! The property owner and manager were so responsive and helpful when we had the tiniest issue -- they really went over and above the call of duty to get the satellite/internet issue fixed in time for me to get signed in to work on a Monday morning! (And, oh, how I wish I hadn't needed to work while there, but if you gotta, you gotta -- and there's no way to work better than to do it surrounded by a bubbling creek and the sounds of nature.) The whole week was just fabulous! All of the appliances are new, I think - there were no problems with anything mechanical. Enjoy the kingfisher on the creek and the copious flocks of butterflies -- and the deer in the front yard most mornings. Not to mention the hummingbirds at the orange flowers just behind the back porch. Oh! The fireplace! What a treat! I can't build a fire to save my life; thank goodness I didn't have to do that. I love this cabin! Can't wait to go back!

    Beautiful piece of property with a great view of the stream from the screened back porch. The road in front of the house had more traffic than we expected but wasn’t bad and we enjoyed being out in the mountains. The second cabin on the property is quite close and was great for us since we brought our parents. Gave us both privacy yet the convenience of being together when we wanted. Both cabins were furnished well and decorated cute. We did encounter an issue that was disappointing but the owner was so prompt to reply and manage the situation for which we were grateful. We would definitely stay there again.

    We had a fantastic weekend stay at this secluded cabin! The property is absolutely beautiful, with a lovely creek and a small waterfall that our husky couldn’t get enough of. The screened and covered deck was spacious and perfect for relaxing, complete with a gas grill. Inside, the kitchen was very well-equipped with modern appliances, cookware, dinnerware, and silverware, making meal prep easy. The living room sofa was very comfortable, and the king-size loft bedroom with its own sitting area was a real highlight—so cozy!A few things to note for future guests: the drive up includes very curvy mountain roads, so if you’re prone to car sickness, be prepared. The Wi-Fi works, but keep in mind it’s what you’d expect for such a remote location. Also, the washer and dryer are located in the basement, which may not be ideal for everyone. If you suffer from allergies, bring your medications—the cabin is clean but, being a rustic place, there may be some dust in less-used areas.The cabin is about a 30-minute drive to downtown Boone, making it easy to enjoy the town while still feeling wonderfully secluded. We had a great time and are already looking forward to coming back!

There were a couple of cleanliness items in one of the cabinets we had to take care of but after that it was a nice cozy cabin to unwind in. There was a new grill to use and had the creek not been low, the fishing would have been better I believe. Overall it was a good stay.

    Beautiful property, cabin is nice & well stocked, could use some cornhole boards as creek water was low & fishing was not great but caught a few small trout. Thankfully no one was in the other cabin or that would have been a HUGE problem as you share a yard, its only separated by a driveway. gravel & dirt road is super close to cabin & extremely busy. The dust was horrible!!! Would not stay again due to road & other cabin proximity.
