It's football season and back to school time. If you're a Virginia Tech football fan, you are a short drive from Lane Stadium. If you want to sit back and watch the game with friends on an 80 inch big screen, cook out, and enjoy a camp fire, Up A Creek is your spot. If you are an RU Alumni or have a child at RU, homecoming is just around the corner and we have availability.

Consider a stay at Up A Creek.

September is a great time to be at the lake in VA. The weather is perfect, morning coffee with a lake view can’t be beat, campfires with s’mores are perfect, & going for kayak rides are the best. If this sounds like your perfect weekend, we have an opening September 18-20. Want to stay longer, that’s an option too. If you’re a VT fan, they play Maryland that weekend & you can watch the game on an 80’ TV & grill out during the game. Check out our listing on ABB & DM me if interested.
