Holiday houses in Howard

I planned a surprise fishing trip for my husband and chose Creekside Cabins after talking to the very helpful host, Debbie. The directions were clear, and the old barn landmark made it easy to find. We immediately thought, “We should bring the whole family next time!” The Shanty and the big cabin are close together, but noise wasn’t much of an issue. Inside our cabin, we hardly noticed neighbors. The first night it rained, so we grilled and relaxed in the cozy rocking chairs. The bed was very soft — I prefer firmer, but it was comfortable. Mornings with coffee on the patio overlooking the river were peaceful. My husband spent the weekend fishing while I read by the fire pit. The shared shower house was large and clean with good hot water and pressure. We’re already planning to return! Bonus: my husband broke his line trying to reel in a 3-footer and caught several carp — it’s definitely a good fishing spot!

This place was just what we needed. We rented this place following a death in the family locally and we needed somewhere for family to gather and be together. This house and the property was everything we could ask for. Quiet. Peaceful. Spacious enough to allow for individual space when needed. The property is beautiful. The house has character and comfort. The hosts have stocked EVERYTHING a person could need. And it has an amazing vibe and history. It felt to all of us that there has been much love and laughter in this historic home which is just what we needed. Thank you for hosting us.

We had a great stay at your home. Location was convenient. Our girls enjoyed the complimentary snack basket. House was spacious and clean. Kitchen had everything you would need to cook meals. We really enjoyed our stay and your home.

This place was fantastic. Such a beautiful, comfortable home with everything we needed plus more! I loved all the thoughtful details for us and the decor. All the rooms were comfortable and my family and I had such a wonderful time. It is so close to campus and the softball field (where we were most of the weekend!). Definitely will be back here again.

We were so fortunate and grateful to stumble upon this beautiful and well maintained gem of a home in Mt. Vernon. This was the perfect halfway point for our family of 6 as we headed back to NY. We immediately felt right at home and were blown away by the generous hospitality that we were provided with from the coffee station, to the treats and beverages, and thoughtful note and information provided. The only regret we had was not being able to spend more time here to enjoy the comforts of this special home and to explore all that the charming town had to offer.

Great stay love the place … I would definitely stay again

Our weekend getaway at the lakehouse with friends was nothing short of perfect. The house itself was cozy, well maintained, and had everything we needed the hot tub and the lake access were extremely enjoyable highlights of our time there. Additionally, Alan is simply the best host possible, he was extremely accommodating and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was enjoyable. It is our second time staying at Alan’s place and we can’t wait to stay there again!

What a great place to call home while exploring the Mohican State Park amenities and the surrounding towns. We were able to eat most of our meals in our rental, including the great Amish breakfast treats left by Richard. The fresh flowers were also a real treat as we were celebrating our 54th Wedding anniversary. Thanks for everything Richard!
