Best dog-friendly rental in the area!
We had to travel to work in Roanoke Rapids and were unable to send our dogs to their nanny due to a kennel cough outbreak in our area. Gavin graciously hosted us and our 4 large dogs for two weeks with no additional cleaning fee or nightly pet rent (unlike the vast majority of Lake rentals, which adds hundreds to thousands of dollars onto the bill). Thank you to Gavin and the Up the Creek team for excellent communication and providing a safe, quiet place for dogs and their people!

Nice place, very convenient to lake a Littleton area.
Nice and clean. Large back yard. Plenty of room inside and out. Negatives, no gas grill as advertised( pickep up steaks to grill prior to arriving) and security code for the door was incorrect. Had to create an account with Vrbo to be able to reply to host to inform them of the issue. Waited outside of home for an hour trying to resolve issue.

This was our second time stopping at this awesome house on our drive to Florida with our dogs and kids. It’s spotlessly clean, comfortable and the yard is perfect for dogs. We will definitely be back.

Quick but perfect overnight!
My family (4 adults, 5 kids, and 2 dogs) stayed overnight on our way to the beach. It was a perfect house! The owners have thought of everything! They even have doggie poop bags by the back door! The house was extremely clean, the beds were super comfy, and not once did we feel congested because there is so much space! Not a single complaint!!!

Great place to stop on the way to Florida
This house was absolutely perfect for our family and two dogs to take a break on the grueling drive to Florida. The owners gave us lots of information and the house was perfectly stocked. The yard was great for our two dogs. They sniffed to their hearts delight. Spotlessly clean, comfortable, perfect temp. We will definitely stay there again.

House was immaculately clean, the property manager gave us plenty of information before, during and after the stay that was helpful. The house had a lot of space for three active kids to play (outside and inside). Great place! Highly recommend!

We loved the location and the house is nicely redone. We also loved that we could bring our four legged family member. The only complaint we have is both queen beds were extremely soft and uncomfortable. We didn’t get much sleep. This is the only reason I’m rating this property 4 stars overall.

Great rental
This house was in nice condition and super clean. Our dogs enjoyed the enormous fenced yard and we all enjoyed the property. We had dinner at Waterfront at Lake Gaston and it was close by and the food was great. The little town was easy to navigate and people were friendly. This house perfectly fit our needs for this trip and we would highly recommend.

We all loved the size of the house. Plenty of couch space for everyone. Clean bathrooms and kitchen. Only complaint was the beds were way too soft. Hard to sleep on something super soft. Great back yard for the kids to run in. Located close to many stores and downtown area.

Nice Stay
My sister and I stayed here with our families to attend a nearby family reunion. The house was a good value for the space. The house is right next to the theater, which would normally be nice and quiet, but they were doing some construction at the time of our stay. There were a couple of issues that I found upon check-in, but the owner responded quickly. The biggest issue was a vehicle left in the driveway from the previous renter. Had we not had three cars, the extra vehicle wouldn't have been a problem, but it made it a little harder to get in and out depending on which car was needed. All in all, we would certainly go back again.

Dog lover's paradise!
This was a wonderful property for us: four adult women competing at a nearly national retriever hunt test. There is a huge fenced back yard for the dogs, a lovely backyard patio, and ample room inside. The owner(s) made check in a breeze, and the house was beautifully set up for guests. Any questions or concerns were addressed and resolved immediately. Since we were there to run our dogs at a hunt test, we did not explore all the sites and experiences available in the area, but the welcome book outlined all that for anyone staying there. We highly recommend this property to anyone thinking of visiting the area!
