This cabin was everything I expected and more. Beautiful inside and out, the entire space was warm and inviting. The trails led to beautiful destinations. The glass chapel and gazebo were my favorites. I have to say that it had what I wanted most. Quiet. I will definitely return here again.

It's always a great stay at the Preserve at Maple Creek. It's so quite and peaceful here which makes it a perfect getaway from the city. The hiking trails are perfect for connecting with nature. This was our third time staying here and we're looking forward to our next visit.

This property was incredible. Exactly as listed, and even better in person. We took our pups for daily walks on the trails which were conveniently located just yards from the cabin. Just walking the grounds was the highlight of our stay. You get the feel of being in the mountains, away from town, yet everything you need is within minutes and only 15 mins to even more shopping and dining. We truly enjoyed our time at the Barn Cabin and would definitely stay again.

The stay was nice, cabin and rooms were clean, and the surrounding trails are great for walking the dog. It isn't as secluded as many of the pictures make it seem, there is a large adjacent farmhouse with multiple guests. Many windows of the cabin look directly out to this adjacent property and the shared drive.

Calming and Relaxing

We enjoyed our visit very much even with the crazy storm or wind that caused the TV to go out. We loved the large checker board. The grounds and The Glass Chapel are beautiful. We loved the cabin and will be planning a future stay if the Lord is willing. Our host and her husband were great!!!

Truly Charming

Honestly, the pictures online are wonderful, yet my experience when i walked in was even better. The layout and space were perfect for me, and this cabin was truly charming. The owners were proactive with communication and the space was clean and well decorated. In addition, the hiking trails onsite were great, and it was close to Rutherforton and Tryon. I willl absolutely be coming back soon for another stay.

Love the Preserve at Maple Creek

This is the second time we've stayed in a cabin at the Preserve. This is a special place and we certainly plan on coming back often. We love the hiking trails on the property which are very easy as our 5 year old son was able to keep up. The cabins are very clean on stocked with everything you need for a long weekend stay.

An Amazing Cabin and Property to Visit!

We stayed in the cabin for 3 days. The cabin was extremely neat and cozy. It had many helpful features: lighting under a step, very comfortable beds, and room darkening curtains. The property has a very interesting history and things to see. The host was extremely friendly and shared the property’s history with us. She invited us to a museum of artifacts in the farmhouse.

Barn Cabin Review

If you’re looking for a beautiful, relaxful, and renewing atmosphere, The Preserve at Maple Creek is the place to go. Over the past several years it has become “our home away from home”. All of the cabins, as well as the farmhouse have wonderful accommodations. Coffee on the porch with the birds chirping is delightful and starts your day off perfectly. Wine by the firepits watching the stars makes for a fabulous way to end your evening.Laura and Steve are the greatest! They make your stay with them extra special because they truly care about their guests experience.
