The sound of Little Rock Creek sets the tone for life at this mountain cabin retreat, where rushing water, mature trees, and scenic valley views create a setting that feels miles away from the pace of everyday life. Relax on the screened porch overlooking the creek, listen to the water flow over the rocks below, and enjoy the natural beauty that surrounds the property year-round.
Inside, the 3-bedroom, 2-bath home blends rustic character with thoughtful updates. A fully remodeled kitchen features custom countertops and all-new appliances, while the dramatic vaulted living room showcases soaring ceilings, wood floors, and a stone fireplace that anchors the heart of the home. An upstairs bedroom opens to a private balcony, offering another peaceful spot to take in the surrounding landscape.
Apple and pear trees add seasonal charm to the property, while the outdoor living spaces make it easy to enjoy the sights and sounds of the creek. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, mountain getaway, or investment opportunity, this property offers a unique combination of comfort, character, and an exceptional creekside setting.
