Open! D/T Creekfront w/ Hot Tub & Gas Fireplace, Traveler Favorite! Great Space!

------ Hurricane Helene Update:

The Creek House is open!
Friends, Family, and Helene Volunteer Discounts available! Please Inquire

Power, internet, hot tub, and creature comforts in the home are restored and the home is fully operational!
The creek access/beach are currently unavailable (12/15/24). Repairs are to begin early spring 2025.

Hot Springs downtown experienced flooding, and the main downtown section and Hot Springs Resort and Spa are in various stages of cleanup and repair. Each of these businesses are closed.

The businesses that are open in town include Sara Jo’s Gas Station, Smoky Mountain Diner, Dollar General, and a couple of beverage/small grocery stores. They would love your business.

Many trails are accessible around the area, and Hot Springs is a central location for adventures in Western North Carolina, East Tennessee, and the Smokey Mountains National Park. Nearby attractions are the Biltmore Estate, Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, Dollywood, the Blue Ridge Parkway, and more.

All major roads into and out of Hot Springs are accessible ----------

The Creek House is a family favorite and a great place to gather and enjoy the area and each other in Hot Springs, NC. The house is also a comfortable retreat for a couple or group of friends who are looking to get away from it all.

The house sleeps up to 8 guests and has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, plus a bonus room with a set of twin beds off of the upstairs "master", full kitchen, living room, dining table for 6 guests, large covered back deck over the creek, outdoor hot tub, and direct access to one of the best swimming holes and fishing spots on Spring Creek.

The master bedroom is located at the top of the stairs and has a king-sized bed and en suite bathroom. The upstairs bathroom includes a whirlpool garden tub.

There is a bedroom with 2 twin beds that is adjacent to the upstairs king bed. Guest must pass through the loft bedroom to get to the twin bedroom. They are separated by a curtain. This considered a bonus room. Good for families and friends who can share space.

The main level features a bedroom with a queen-sized bed and another bedroom with 2 twin-sized beds. The bathroom downstairs includes a shower only along with a laundry area that is available to guests.

The kitchen is fully equipped and adorable with a dining table to host your delicious meals. There is also a grill to use if you are fortunate enough to catch your dinner in the creek.

The living room is cozy and has a gas fireplace to enjoy during the cooler months.

The large back deck is the best place in the house during Spring, Summer, and Fall. You will see water birds, beavers, and otters if you are lucky and relax with the sounds of the creek below. A 4-person hot tub is located on the deck.

Hot Springs is a great destination in all seasons! The weather is mild, and roads are tended in the wintertime. We love to hike the Lover's Leap trail on cool, sunny days when things are a bit quieter around here. Hot Springs is central to some great hiking and exploring in the WNC and East Tennessee area. And a trip to the Biltmore Estate in Asheville can be a truly wonderful experience anytime of the year.

Summer is a wonderful season to enjoy many things to do outside, including rafting and tubing, horseback riding, and venturing up to Max Patch Bald.

Spring sees beautiful mountain wildflowers and hikers traveling through on the Appalachian Trail.

Fall never disappoints with endless potentials to see the trees changing at different elevations and finishing your day with a fire and soak in the natural hot springs or a beer at Big Pillow Brewing.

We are happy to answer any questions you may have about the home and area, and we hope you will consider the Creek House for your vacation!

My home away from home!
I’ve been coming to Hot Springs for over 10 years. The Creek House is my ‘come back to’ place! I’ve recommended it to friends and family and they have loved it too! I will continue going there for as long as they let me!

The River/Creek was Wonderful
There were 7 of us relatives gathered for fun and to celebrate a BD. Kitchen was excellent with all the equipment we needed and home very spacious for all of us. Comfy beds and towels, etc. But the BEST was the river and being able to listen to it sitting on the wonderful deck or even in the hot tub. PLUS some of us even went swimming in the cold river…. I got up to my knees but that was about it! Great time all around and we plan to come back!!

Had a great stay at the Creek House for our club's annual summer paddle on the French Broad. We've stayed in Karen's properties for this event since 2011. Six of us spent the last two paddle years here and waiting for the bookings to open up for next year.

The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly - Not A Very Clean Property
Best outside VRBO experience, worst inside experience. This place really needs a DEEP clean! Kitchen cabinets / counters were covered in grease / grime / dirt which stuck to your hands when touching them. Mold was growing in the refrigerator in multiple spots. Coffee / tea bar was filthy and had to be cleaned including the coffee maker, and the tea water warmer still had old water in it. Coffee cups were still dirty and had to be washed, as well as the pans coated with grease. Dish towels had human hair in them likely from being washed with soiled bath linens. No cleaning products were anywhere. Back door had a ton of dirt / grime build up which came off with some cleaner. When we called the owner we were told that the cleaning lady had to open up a closet for us to get them which was strange given there was plenty of toilet paper, shampoo, and other items. We opted to go get our own at the Dollar General to avoid an awkward confrontation with the cleaning lady who obviously didn't do a great job of cleaning the property. To our surprise one of the first things we saw when we entered the house was an envelope for tipping the house keeper. One would wonder why this is there if the place was so dirty, and not to mention the separate cleaning fee you pay to VRBO. We opted to not tip simply based on this. All of the other rooms / bed linens were clean as well as the bathrooms. The porch and hot tub were both clean. Upon using the beach we did find broken glass.

Serenity now
Forget your troubles and be soothed by the sound of Spring Creek just off your spacious, covered, private and comfortable hot tub-equipped back deck. We love this charming house and its in-town convenience, and enjoy staying typically 3 times a year. Catch us on cool mountain mornings with a cup of coffee enjoying the birdsong from the deck's comfortable seating. House is very well appointed, including a cook's kitchen, coffee supplies, shampoo, etc., best hosts ever, and all the superlatives your thesaurus can muster. What are you waiting for? Make that reservation. You will not regret it.

Perfect Location
Location is absolutely perfect. Great fishing from the property. Well supplied kitchen. Only complaint would be the smell of the hot tub. The Hot Tub was nice , but it smelled like it’s time for new head rests. As someone who owns a hot tub, it needed some water . Your house is really cool. I would definitely go back.

Love this charming house with the best location on Spring Creek in Hot Springs. The large covered deck over a wide section of the creek with a sandy beach and shoals up and downstream is unmatched in the area. We stay 3 times a year at least. Thanks for another fantastic stay.

We came to stay during a snowy weekend and had the best time. The house was perfectly set up for us and had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable and gave us enough space.

Perfect cozy Christmas cabin!
My family and I loved our stay at the Creek House! What a wonderful place for a laidback family Christmas. We also loved the Christmas lights and wreath on the front door, it was a lovely festive touch! The house itself had plenty of room for our group of six adults, and we enjoyed the soothing river sounds, relaxing in the hot tub, enjoying bonfires by the creek, and having our morning coffee on the back porch. Regarding the amenities, the kitchen had everything we needed to cook our Christmas dinner and the supplies like extra towels and sheets made it feel like a home away from home. We would definitely stay again, thank you for providing such a relaxing experience!

Perfect Girlfriend Weekend Get-Away
Our group of college girlfriends (now all grandmothers) meet every year for a weekend get-away. This was a perfect location with plenty of beds, a kitchen and dining table big enough to accommodate all of us fixing meals together, and a large covered deck overlooking the creek. We'd sit outside just to listen to the water. And the house was close enough to the small downtown that we could walk to restaurants and shopping. Perfect!!!
