We Will Be Back!

What a fantastic time we had at Cabin Creekwood! We arrived the Monday after 20+ inches of snow fell and stayed for three nights. We enjoyed the family time away from the normal fast-pace of life, sled riding, and the serenity of a small fire in the fire ring (also cooked meals with this fire) […]

Water Park in the Winter?

Tired of all the cold, snowy weather?  How about a trip to the Massanutten Indoor Waterpark.  No matter what the temperatures are outside, it’s always a balmy 84 degrees inside the park.   Try surfing on the pipeline, the biggest Flowrider in Virginia.  Or how about a float trip down the Blue Ridge Rapids?  You’re […]

Perfect Getaway! Just Too Short!

Perfect!  The only thing wrong was our stay was way too short!   This was a great getaway from our busy life.  I can’t remember ever having such a quiet night or morning.  Who knew how peaceful a babbling brook, leaves blowing, and no tv could be.  Not me!!!  Thanks for the great escape…we will […]
