This is my second time staying at this lovely vacation home. Joe is amazing as a host and just a lovely man. He gave us a great tour of the mountain and we had such a wonderful time, relaxing and enjoying the sounds of the creek and privacy. Weâre already planning our next visit. If you wanna get away, this is a wonderful place to stay.
Home in Otto community, away from the crowded highways and towns of Clayton, GA and Franklin, NC. Slightly remote setting up a well-maintained gravel road that overlooks a beautiful meadow with horses and deer. The home truly is âcreeksideâ and is located beside a beautiful flowing creek. We spent our evenings after dinner on the deck overlooking the creek, enjoying the fireflies. The accommodations were so clean (pristine!) and comfortable. The hosts were warm and welcoming. Even though they were upstairs, the accommodations were quiet and private. Their dog, Ruby, is an added amenity! We will definitely stay here again!
Our stay at creekside was amazing! The hosts were perfect! Everything about our stay was so perfect I didnât want to leave! Hoping we get the chance to go back and stay again and for longer!
We loved our stay here. Beautiful surroundings, peaceful, loved the creek, mountain views, wildlife, covered deck, fireplace area, everything you could imagine, this is the place. Your home away from home. This place was spotless!!! It deserves 10đ rating!!
My husband and I had a lovely getaway at Creekside! Very quiet and private. The soothing sound of the creek and the view from the porch was our favorite! Location was great and close to restaurants, grocery stores and gas stations. We had no trouble finding our way there. Creekside is super clean and decorated nicely, an all-around great place to rest and unwind. The hosts are so wonderful and very helpful. They were there to greet us upon arrival. Super kind couple with great recommendations about the area. We look forward to a return stay at Creekside!
My husband and I come frequently to Franklin, including twice a year for the wholesale gem show. We are quiet folks, and when we stay somewhere, a peaceful location is very important. We couldnât have asked for a better place or location. The view of the mountain and the beautiful creek were exactly what we were hoping to find. We didnât have time to enjoy the firepit, but Iâm sure we will return and utilize it then. Everything was so clean and thoughtfully arranged. Everything we needed was provided. The notebook for guest information was perfect! We also enjoyed the information on places to eat. The furnishings were exactly right: a comfortable bed, comfy recliners, and a very well-equipped kitchen. Who could ask for more?While we didnât have the opportunity to meet Joceline, we enjoyed our conversations with Joseph. Such a welcoming host!Iâve been coming to Franklin since the 1960âs, and I must say that Iâve never stayed in a more comfortable and welcoming place. We highly recommend Creekside!Thank you, Joseph and Joceline!
My wife and I stayed 3 nights at this place in May, 2025. The pastoral view from the porch is worth the price of admission. If you get tired of watching the horses and creek below, the bird feeder just a few feet off the porch attracts many beautiful birds. The two Lazy Boy recliners in the living room is just icing on the cake. Finally, I found a VRBO with a beautiful porch view and some useful living room furniture. The host, Joe, was perfect. He was there to welcome us upon our arrival, gave us a nickel tour then left us alone. On our third and final night he informed us that the area may experience an overnight hail storm and offered us a garage to park our vehicle inside. While the hail never came that night I want to thank Joe for allowing me to park my vehicle safely in his garage while I was lounging in the lazy boy and listening to the rain fall outside. Thanks, Joe!
Well appointed apartment with the best porch and porch swing. Super clean. Everything you could want to just relax! We'll be back! Loved Joe and Ruby and the neighborhood.
I cannot say enough good things about our stay. The host was so helpful in giving directions to places to see. The house was immaculate and was equipped with everything one would need.
While we weren't able to go on any hikes in the area, the stay was amazing and we were able to disconnect for the weekend and just enjoy the holiday together.
We enjoyed our stay. It was beautifully appointed, had everything that we needed, and was warm and cozy. The bed was very comfortable. The hosts were exceptionally helpful and were nearby for any questions. I would definitely recommend this listing.
A business trip in the grasp of Hurricane Helene. The location and abode was great. A getaway into the mountains with beautiful scenery in spite of the storm. Owners are great, friendly folks and their goal is to make you happy and welcome. Will definitely visit again, hopefully with better weather. All was well and we were extremely happy with the arrangement. Wonderful trip.
My husband and I absolutely love staying at Creekside! It is always quiet and peaceful. It's far enough from the busyness of town to enjoy the mountain view with the relaxing sound of the creek on the porch, but close enough to get to town with a short ride! We always hate to leave but look forward to our next visit! Thank you Jo and Joss for sharing Creekside with us again!
Relaxing and Invigorating! From porch time to bike trails and waterfalls! Lots to do.
One of the cleanest properties weâve ever stayed in. The owner was excellent. Very knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating!
We loved sitting on the porch overlooking and listening to the creek, while watching deer and horses in the fields around the creek
What a gorgeous piece of property! The view of the noisy creek, the does and their fawns passing through daily and the groundhog and horses! We were entertained every day. I was reluctant to leave the deck for fear of missing something.
Great accommodations and lovely owners! We will return.
Quiet and peaceful property with a creek and hiking paths. View of a pasture with horses from the front porch. Easy access, not too far from the main road. Interior was nicely decorated with everything you need. The hosts were very accommodating. Surrounded by trees and mountains, you probably won't get cell service, and internet is spotty. Just a short drive to Franklin.
We had an amazing honeymoon at creekside! They are so welcoming and warm. They are very generous with their local wisdom but give you complete privacy!
Plenty of room inside and outside. All the amenities you can imagine.The outside areas and creek below are very relaxing as well as an open Mountain View from the porch. Very private and homeowners will answer any questions you have about the area. Would highly recommend a stay here!!!
I cannot rave enough! The Volks are gracious and Caring hosts who strike the perfect balance of help when needed and privacy for all. The apartment is well stocked, the view is amazing and the grounds are ideal. We walked the creek, saw lots of deer and wildlife, sat on the porch for hours and listened to the rushing creek waters. It was hard to leave.
