The water in the house was not turned on when we got there, although it was easy to call and get instructions on how to turn it on…because of that the refrigerator water tasted really bad initially, I assume because it was sitting unused fir awhile. Other than that everything was great, beautiful woods behind the house.

The property is conveniently located to all amenities. We enjoyed the lake access, ease of kayaking and jet skis. The hiking trails and beach were extremely clean. We would 100% stay here again. The hot tub at the home was clean and we enjoyed our morning hike up the mountain out back. There are alot of steps, which are a bit difficult for anyone with mobility issues.

Awesome family trip!

The house was amazing. Location was great. Only downside was it is listed as having a hot tub and when we arrived it was “closed for winterizing”? Our stay was in late June…? Other than that would highly recommend this property

Good stay at Cherry Creek Resort

Overall, this house well accommodated our family (7 adults and 1 infant). Plenty of bedrooms and space in the bedrooms for everyone. The living area was tight for all of us with the main kitchen table only able to seat 7 people and was in tight quarters. Generally, the house was clean but definite cosmetic issues can be seen throughout (scratches to drywall, deck needs to be cleaned, 2 outdoor chairs broken). The location and dock were definitely a plus as it was quiet and we were able to enjoy a private dock easily!

Great House on a Hill

Our family had an amazing week in this house. Location on the lake is great and the proximity to the state park was convenient. Only thing worth noting is the climb up from the water to the house. The hill is steep and can be challenging for the older and younger members of the family. Overall, great property!

Incredible cabin! We will be back

It was a wonderful stay and we couldn’t say more about the property, the amenities, the cleanliness, everything! We will want to come back to this cabin every single year. It was really cozy and just perfect. Only trouble was communication with management. We had communicated with them and asked for a late check out but somewhere on their end that was not implemented and cleaners showed up before we were ready to get out. However due to the error they gave us time to clean up be pack up and all is well :)

Making Wonderful Family Memories at Cherry Creek Retreat

Our family had a very enjoyable time at Cherry Creek Retreat. The location is close to many activities including the State Park beach, the Nature Center, and easily-accessible hiking trails. The house had a wonderful and spacious deck, with great views from the large windows throughout the house. The hot tub was clean, well-maintained, and in a wonderful and relaxing setting. The kitchen was well-equipped with dishes, pots, pans, and utensils; everything we needed to make some great meals. We did find the outdoor grill too small for the size of the house. It made it difficult to efficiently cook for our family of eleven. We found swimming in the lake to be a bit of a challenge due to the heavy boat traffic. The cove was full of partying boaters, so if you like quiet this may not be the place for you in July. However, our family enjoyed our time at Cherry Creek Retreat and made some very special memories there.

Our group of 8 college roommates stayed here for our annual Deep Creek trip. The house is great. We loved sitting on the dock enjoying the beautiful view of the lake. We used the fire pit in the evening and sat on the front deck each day. This is a great house. The location and amenities are wonderful. We can’t wait to return next year!
