We did not know there would be no linen in the cabin. You had to walk around 100 feet to get to the porta john since there was no bathroom in the cabin. I would not want to try and go to the bathroom at night in that country. I'm not sure how I missed that really important information when booking. This was a spur of the moment trip while my husband was having good days while being treated for cancer. We drove to the cabin, went in after finding the light, turned off the light and left. We found a motel in another town. I should have realized there was something off with the price.

The guest rented a camping cabin, for people who want to be out in nature, but don't want to bother with a tent. Apparently, they did not read the description of the cabin. We have not had other guests misunderstand what we have to offer, but we will revise the listing to make it even more clear.

This guest did not stay with us. She arrived, was immediately combative, and refused to sign the registration and waiver form, claiming that it was not mentioned on our website. The waiver is actually mentioned in 20 different places on our website.

Absolutely adorable little cabins. A bit better than expected and very clean. The general manager was a very delightful person who had all needed information about the area. He was also very polite and considerate. The property has a very unique and easily accessible creek that was very beautiful. It’s a very rural location but there’s a small fuel station with anything you could need like 3 miles up the road. We didn’t stay very long but it was a fantastic experience while we were there and we plan to visit again this summer!

Quaint, quiet place in the mountains to tune out and recharge your batteries. Not a place for glampers and that was a huge part of the appeal to me. Hosts were very accommodating of anything asked of them.

This person did not stay with us. They made a short-notice reservation on line, did not read the description, and assumed it was a motel room rather than a camping cabin.

We're happy that Kimberly appreciated what Abrams Creek has to offer. It is more like a nature preserve than a commercial campground. On our campground, there are no generators, loud electronics, or other things that would distract from appreciating the sights and sounds of this pristine natural environment. Campsites and cabins are well spaced out, so that there is never a feeling of crowding.

We were delighted to have Robert stay with us. We do have a door lock for that room--we rarely have had a guest want one. Had Robert asked, we could have provided him with a keylock. If he stays with us again, we'll be sure to provide that for him!

rustic cabins were ok, but there were also mice
We rented one of the cabins for our family stay. The manager was very proactive in calling us to make sure we knew that the accommodations were rustic, which we appreciated. The cabins were indeed basic, which was fine with us, but unfortunately, there were mice running around inside. We did not want to spend the night like that because we have small children. The manager was kind enough to let us switch cabins to one that seemed to have fewer mice, but they were still there. Of course, this place is in the woods so mice are not unexpected. We just weren't comfortable with them running around inside the cabin. Incidentally, we did not bring any food in the cabin, but it's possible that previous occupants had, which may have been attracting the mice. We did appreciate the manager's help in finding a solution.

Response from Manager on 12 Aug 2018
I's sorry the cabin didn't work out for this family. This is a campground, so woodland creatures are all around. We actively control for mice in the cabins. This cabin was rented almost continuously this summer, and this was the first report we had of mice. Normally, we would have taken care of the problem while the guests were there, but since they had an infant, they didn't want to take any chances. We were happy to support them in that choice, and they were given a refund.

I'm sorry if we missed something about the linens. We of course would have been happy to change them had we known there was a problem. We would not knowingly use linens with stains on them.

Should not be on Expedia
The "lodge" should not be offered on Expedia. This is an older musty split level house. If you stay in the "Lodge" you are basically renting a room in someone's house - with them there. Weird.
Stayed 1 night in Aug 2017
Response from Abrams Creek on 26 Aug 2017
I'm sorry to hear that this guest misunderstood the kind of accommodations we offer. The lodge is set up like a bed-and-breakfast or guest house--a common enough arrangement in the US, and even more so in Europe. The hosts live here, and private rooms within the lodge are available to guests. People rent rooms here because of the spectacular grounds--a hemlock forest set in a mountain valley with a wild whitewater stream running alongside it, in an area with many extraordinary outdoor recreational opportunities. And unlike a hotel room, guests have shared access to a full kitchen--all at very affordable rates.
