Cabin in Roanoke

The Magical Cabin on Back Creek

Magic is the word most people use when they visit this hidden gem. Built in 1939 as a fishing cabin by a gentleman who incorporated box cars as rafters and beams, dates still visible since removing the attic. By far the best place I've ever lived. I decided to share it with others who love to explore, who love listening to the voice of the creek or who come just to sit on the porch high above the creek with a spouse, friend, family, or alone. For the best sleep, open the bedroom window!

A serene lakeside view is presented, showcasing a smoothly flowing body of water bordered by lush greenery. A dock is visible, with boats moored alongside. The sky is painted in soft blues and warm hues, reflecting the tranquil atmosphere of the setting.
