Weekend Trip to Creekwood Cottage

Our stay at this cabin was truly lovely. The space felt cozy and private, even with the kids enjoying the loft upstairs. It had everything we needed, and we really appreciated how peaceful and comfortable it was. The only challenge we experienced was with communication. When an unexpected winter storm came through, we reached out twice to ask whether we could extend our stay for an extra night. We weren’t from the area and were concerned about driving in unsafe conditions. The host responded to other parts of my messages but did not acknowledge the question about availability, which left us unsure how to plan. We ultimately chose to leave early and book an Airbnb for safety. Overall, the cabin itself was wonderful, but clearer communication during situations like this would have made the experience even better.

My fiancée and I loved our weekend getaway at Nichole’s site. She was very welcoming & gave us a tour of the camp site. The area was very clean & was a perfect spot for us to disconnect from the city life. She even offered the river tubing ride which we also HIGHLY recommend. It was definitely the highlight of our trip. Nicole was also very quick on her responses and helped us with the questions we had. We will definitely visit again & we recommend this stay 👍🏼💚🌳

Very cool little campground. You can tell they have put some work into making a beautiful space. There is a pond in the center with lots of ducks, geese, cranes, etc. they also have a shower house with flush toilets, shower, sink for dishes, and trash. They even have some nice walking trails. Sites were pretty private and even if the place was full you would still have more privacy than most state parks. There is definitely some highway noise since they are so close to 30 but if you don’t mind that I would definitely recommend staying here!

I had a great experience at Earl and Lisa’s camp! They were very quickly communicative and Lisa waited to show me to my campsite, despite me booking late at night. The camping areas were very well maintained and the bathroom was equally clean! The trails through the wooded areas were perfect to walk off a long drive and run some of my dogs energy off. Also, if you’re someone who enjoys stargazing, this is a great place for it!

Was a wonderful place to rest our weary bodies after 12 days on road. Last stop before home. Earl and Lisa's place is wonderful. Park like setting with duck pond, stacks of wood waiting for us, and cute out house with shower and toilet. We were only ones there due to end of season and had full hook up site and it was perfect. Little road nose but really didn't really bother us.

Weekend Trip to Sleek Acres

We had a wonderful experience. Both Lisa and Earl were friendly, responsive, and accommodating. The bathroom/shower house was clean and stocked. The outdoor sink was helpful for washing hands and doing dishes. We stayed at site #6, which offered just enough privacy. The grounds were well maintained, and we loved seeing all of the bumblebees and hummingbirds. They even offered some initial complementary firewood and fire pits have grates so that you can cook on them. We are hoping to return soon before the season ends, otherwise we definitely plan to be back next year! Thank you, Earl and Lisa, for such great hospitality, and making our camping trip so comfortable!

Lovely little campsite in a park like setting with duck pond and deer. Located very close to US 30 yet reasonably quiet. Hosts are accommodating and helpful. Stayed at the full hookups site. Host mentioned more hookup sites becoming available soon. Sites have ample space between them which is welcome.

1 night at Sleek Acres

This site was very clean and private. The owners were kind and very helpful when we had a snapped tent pole. Would definitely recommend!

Site 4 - perfect for tents or self-contained RV's.

Sarah and Earl are Great! They gave my grandchildren glow sticks the first night and then popsicles the next day. They come around and talk to you to make sure that everything is going well and ask if you need anything. We loved spending Labor Day weekend there! They even got to know our two dogs lol.

Thanks Earl & Lisa, they are lovely and kind couple. The campsite is wonderful and peaceful. We did enjoy the campfire, at first we couldn't fire up the woods, but just a message, Earl & Lisa came in a minute and helped us to set up the fire. Wonderful host.

Weekend Trip to Sleek Acres

My wife and I stayed at Sleek Acres (Lisa & Earl) over Labor Day weekend. We loved the property: the six sites were spaced comfortably apart and it was just a minute long walk directly to the toilet and shower. They were very thoughtful to install an outdoor sink for dish cleanup, as well. They also have lovely pond with ducks, an impressive blue heron, a small beach area with chairs, and the pond is stocked with fish. Walking on a small set of nature trails was a welcome escape from lounging at camp and a way to stretch our legs and have yet another experience without having to leave the property. The owners raise chickens and truly ‘farm fresh eggs’ are available for a very reasonable price. This was very welcome for us city dwellers who are now paying close to $10 for a dozen pasture raised eggs. We chose site #6 as its tucked away and offers a little more privacy but all sites are far enough apart that you’re not right on top of your neighbors. Lastly, Lisa & Earl made our experience quite wonderful. They are warm, genuine, and welcoming and made us feel at home. They came by in their cute electric car to see how we were doing, see if we needed anything, and then went on to clean and restock the bathroom. Their personal attention was wonderful and their quality of being ‘hosts’ is stellar. We will be back!
