Creekside Roan Mountain Cabin: Walk to Trails

Reviews

• Perfect Location for a Week of Fall Colors

  5/5

  Our second stay at the chalet - It was the perfect location for us to explore many trails, including the AT, during this gorgeous time of year near Roan Mountain. A quiet location (with a roaring brook) to unwind after hiking all day in rocking chairs by the outdoor fireplace immediately outside our doors. A most convenient and comfortable stay. We will be back again!

• Great solution for our day-hiking evening respite!

  5/5

  My wife and I spent several days day-hiking the AT and other trails in the area. This cozy chalet/condo worked out perfectly as a place to retreat in the evening and share breakfast in the morning. Comfortable setup, plenty of space, full kitchen, charcoal grill, quiet surroundings, rocking chairs by the roaring stream (not a babbling brook!). Close enough to to Roan Mountain and Elizabethton for supplies. Smoky Mountain Bakers has great breakfast options and very good wood-fired pizza. There are several other chalets attached (above) and adjacent, so this could be one of several for a larger group.

• Beautiful Setting But No Privacy

  3/5

  This is our 4th stay at the chalet in less than 2 yrs. Obviously we LOVE the atmosphere and unplugged mountain setting. However, we have stayed in units 2, 3, 4, and 5. All four times, privacy was an issue. There is NO type of sound barriers, as the chalet used to be all one sharable space. Everything that a neighbor does sounds as if it is in thr same room with you, even the difference between top floor (unit 5) and bottom floor (unit 2). Unfortunately our upstairs neighbor decided to cook, eat, and clean up between 11pm-1am EVERY NIGHT of our stay this past time. We went home from this stay co.pletely exhausted with no rest because of neighbors. There was a door in our kitchen that did not meet the top of the frame work and only open air between us and the office. We could hear every move and word spoken from the office area as well. If the units are going to be rented separately, extensive improvements need to be made to insure privacy between units. Unit 2 had no bedroom closet and no dresser, leaving our clothes inside our suitcase for the duration. Our last stay. The room had no central heat and air and we stayed in June. We had to go buy a box fan to sleep with and open all windows and doors. We have had to buy items for the room upon every stay, as they are sparsely stocked. I hate to leave a 3 star review as we simply LOVE this place and it has such wonderful potention. But after our 4th stay over nearly 2 years, improvements just simply have to be made if customers are to be comfy and happy.

• Beautiful getaway

  We spent 3 nights and loved the area, the nature and quiet buffered by the Tiger creek outside the cabin. Cabin was clean and comfortable. Loved Roan mountain state park. Would definitely return!
