What a great place. We stayed another week this year in the best cabin I could find. I initially found it last year and we loved it so much we decided to do it early in the summer just in case we can go again at the end of summer.
The cabin is perfectly decorated and easy to find. There are so many reasons we like this place. We find the view from both porches and from the master bedroom just perfect no matter the weather. The kitchen is great even with the 4 of us helping my 9 yr old daughter on her designated cooking night. The pool table, TV’s, and more are great too. The kids seem to like the bear rug and the downstairs bedroom with the bear prints on the wall the most.
Inside is a nice layout with great views, 3 nice sized bedrooms, and more. Be sure to grab a cup of tea (we always leave some of the good tea behind) or coffee for a nice sunset show from the porch.
We enjoy cooking in, using the BBQ and going out to eat. There is plenty to choose from. Several grocery stores and even a super Walmart are close by. Restaurants are plenty. We like Brothers (very close), Monte Alban Mexican, No Name Deli, and more.
There is plenty to do. Hike nearly anywhere, go white water rafting on the Ocoee or the Nantahala, horseback riding, and lots more. If you do the Nantahala go to Fast Rivers, we have gone there for 7 years straight; they are great. Horseback riding (just past Fast Rivers) is great fun too. We are also known to do some mini-golf, a trip to Cherokee, a picnic to a small picnic area in Fires Creek, or even a picnic at Deep Creek where we all go tubing down the creek.
I will admit, I have been coming to Murphy since a kid and love vacationing there. We enjoy it so much we were ready to purchase a place 2 years ago. Since finding this place, we dediced renting it was substantially cheaper, easier, and most importantly we love arriving to a perfect and clean house.
Lastly, bring a good camera; you will need it for the great views. I have at least 100 pictures taken throughout the day and even of the sunset all from the main porch. Many came out perfect.
Would I recommend it, yes of course as long as you don’t book the same week we want to go. ?
