Cabin in the woods

Ride in to Carter’s Hideaway on Thursday evening in the dark was interesting, but we were rewarded with an excellent experience for 5 days/4 nights!! Not much was left to guesswork, as switches were well labeled, everything worked as expected, facilities were very well maintained, and we were able to relax and enjoy our time away from Martinsville Speedway. Would love to be there when the pool is open, but enjoyed the hot tub every day.

Great stay

This is a nice place to stay. We didnt pay attention to how there was only one room in the main cabin. But it ended up working out great. We had our own privacy. Pool was great. There was one thing that freaked us out a little. There were alot of spiders. Im scared of spiders. This was just from them not taking care of them though. The first night we had one make a web from the tuck to the ground. Its out in the woods, so it should be expected. Besides that, it was seculded and fun to stay at. We definitely recomend. Very cozy for winter months too.

Simply beautiful next to nature! Loved the peacefulness and the luxury of hotel stay with a private pool and hot tub. This stay was for the bride and party. Nice to chill out and rest. We would all like to come back next year with our families. Thank you to the owners for sharing their little piece of heaven. Will diffently return.

Great stay

Overall wonderful experience. Did ask a question very early in booking that was never answered but it was irrelevant at time of checkin/out anyway so made 0 difference. Pool was perfect kids loved it day and night. Main cabin was very nice master stays 10* cooler than main room, which is fine by me. Downside to location of hottub is traffic through master suite and wet floor, but again not a deal breaker in anyway, just an observation. Thank you carters creek!

Beautiful property just don't expect to be able contact the owners.

Beautiful property. We were excited to visit with our family of seven - Christmas to New Year's holiday. Sadly, after the first night's sleep my wife started feeling itchy and came down with a bad rash on her face, hands, and ankles from the bed. We contacted both the owner and the property manager using the numbers and email addresses given. They chose not to respond four times. We were seeking information for what in the cabin might be the cause of the allergic reaction. Since we received no help, we spent the week driving hours into town and back buying new bedding, medicines, and seeking medical advice. The rash got worse each day. The day we returned home she went to the ER and was put on prednisone. Had to cancel a week of work as well as her face was red and puffy by then. We will not be staying in this cabin again and we advise others with allergies to think carefully about renting here. 1 in 7 chance seems to be your odds as that's how many of us got it. There were mice in the walls as the kids saw them. And the bedding smelled strongly of detergent, so perhaps they were covering up something. Wish they had written or called us back.

Cousin Weekend Trip

Overall the stay wasn’t awful however, there are many concerns I feel pertinent to point out. My cousin, her daughter, my niece and I stayed at the cabin from a Friday to a Monday morning as we planned a fun girl’s cousin weekend! Due to work and kids school schedules we didn’t get on the road until later in the day and that put us coming in, in the late evening. Upon arrival, it was quite literally black as night. There were no lights left on at the cabin(s) so be prepared to use your headlights, phone light or bring a flashlight to see anything. Issue 1: There are two cabins (I missed reading this in the description somewhere); the main cabin and then a side cabin. The side cabin is just bedrooms and a bathroom in the middle. The main cabin has a master bedroom, living room – with a pull out couch, kitchen and bathroom. The main cabin is also enclosed within a white fence and unless you’re truly looking you don’t know how to get into the white fence. There is no sign that says “Welcome,” “Enter Here,” nothing. We walked around the main cabin and after looking at the white fence for a couple minutes, I had the thought that maybe part of the fence was a gate to let us in and I was right. A sign or some indication on where to enter into the white fence would be extremely helpful, especially after driving, coming in late in the evening and being tired, wanting to fight with a fence is the last thing you want to do upon arrival. Issue 2: Once in the main cabin and getting situated, we started discussing sleeping arrangements. We pulled out the sleeper and laid on it to see how it might sleep – you might as well just be sleeping straight on the coils. It was brutal. Thankfully we were able to get the kids to sleep on the pullout couch and my cousin and I slept in the main master bedroom. The bed in there is HUGE, a California King I believe so there was a lot of space however, the mattress wasn’t the best but compared to the pullout couch it was luxury. Issue 3: The water. If you have a weak stomach or you’re sensitive to smell, you are not going to want to stay here. I’m assuming they’re on well water which makes it smell of sulfur or rotten eggs for a better comparison. It is very overwhelming. The hot tub was a joy but the water in it also smelled like the rotten eggs so it made it a little more difficult to enjoy. After the hot tub I could still smell the smell in the kid’s hair when they would sit next to me, which was overwhelming. So fair

Great property and very clean.. Wi-Fi was spotty but it was okay because the family actually put their phones down and talked like normal people for once. We’re already planning another trip back in the summer to try out the pool!!

We were very pleased to find this place. We have family that live in Bassett, so it worked great. The main cabin was perfect- no complaints. The beds in the guest cabin lift a lot to be desired. Worn out and lumpy.

Bad business practice.

Everything was good except green pool when we arrived. Called management they were very responsive. While management was working on pool a brown substance came out of jets. After we finished our stay and returned home, I contacted the owner. And they were very dishonest about the entire situation. Guess I should have taken photos. Shame on me!!!!

Great remote location. Property was clean and well kept both inside and out. Hot tub and pool would be nice in warmer weather. Great TVs with more than adequate selections. Refrigerator was spotless. Stove and microwave were modern and worked perfectly. Internet, as could be expected in this remote area, was slow and with 5 adults and two kids trying to use it was overtaxed. Hot water sometimes had a sulfur smell but not overwhelming. I would suggest bring your drinking water as the source of the smell could not be determined. The surrounding woodlands are outstanding and the privacy offered with this property is unsurpassed! Met the cleaning/management crew as we were leaving. It was obvious they have great personal pride in looking after this property!
