Dave Wiley purchased this cabin in 2004
Why Dave Wiley chose Murphy
We spent over a year searching for the ideal location in this area of the Smoky Mountains and found it here at Persimmon Creek Cabin. The property is 3+/- acres and our creek runs through the middle of the property just below the cabin. Unlike most of the other properties we previewed, it's very private here in that you cannot see any other cabins from here!
What makes this cabin unique
This cabin is located in a picturesque community of upscale homes which are spread out with 3-4+ acres of thick woods in between. This provides lots of privacy and solitude yet it's easy to get to and not way out in the boonies.
Guestbook comments from the owner
It's exactly what we came for - rest and relaxation! The cabin is so quiet and has everything we need. The scenery to and from anywhere is very majestic. The local people are warm and very helpful. Thank you very much for allowing us this wonderful time here at your cabin!

Cozy Country Cabin
The large large windows and sky lights allowed everyone to enjoy the beautiful wooded lot with flowering rhododendron , a great carpet of moss and every shade of southern green vegetation !! The stream passing by the deck and side porches was music to our ears . Many ferns trimmed the banks of the fast flowing clear stream . Two graceful dear visited one afternoon . The surrounding countryside was so peaceful. We made a friend in the pasture nearby and even took a picture of him and his barn to paint pictures of later. We enjoyed several outings during the week. The John Campbell Craft Center was a treat as well as the NOC on the Nanahalla River , historical Murphy was fun too. We found the cabin to be clean uncluttered and well equipped . The heated bathrooms would be great for a Winter trip. All and all a great trip to the Mountains. Thank you Dave for sharing you home . We took a couple of bochures and will share with friends !!
Our family had a great time at this cabin. It was just what we were looking for.
Our family had a great time at this cabin. It was just what we were looking for. We spent time playing checkers in the living room, making smores at the fire pit, relaxing on the hammock, and grilling on the gas grill. There is not a lot to do close to the cabin, but our intent was mostly just to relax and this was perfect for that. For the times when we wanted to go exploring with the kids, we went to Rolling Thunder Tubing multiple times (12 mi, 17 min), the Wagon Master Adventure Ranch (15 mi, 29 min), Grandaddy Mimms Moonshine Distillery (28 mi, 37 min) and the nearby excellent BBQ at Jim's Smokin' Que, and the Toccoa River Swinging bridge (32 mi, 65 min).
There is also a nice mountain bike trail near Murphy called the Hanging Dog Trail with lots of verticals for a good cardio workout. If you drive to/from this cabin through Georgia, as we did, you may pass through Helen, GA and that is a great place to stop if so.
Sometimes dealing with trash at a rental cabin can be a pain, but that was not the case here because the trash facility is convenient and only about 10 minutes away. They have great hours and you can drop off trash almost any time.
Overall, we highly recommend this cabin and think others will enjoy it as much as we did. I always try to include both the positives and potential negatives, so here are the latter. There are at least 3 security cameras at the cabin, which was fine, but one of them was inside in the kitchen/living room area. We found that one a bit creepy so we threw a dish towel over it while we were there. There was a hammock available, but we didn't find any rope to tie it to the trees, so we ended up buying some rope at dollar general to do so. Finally, the fire pit was awesome but it would have been nice to have a small handsaw to cut up the bigger sticks we had collected from around the property.
We would definitely consider returning to this property and would recommend it for family or a couple looking for a romantic getaway. You could relax and do nothing here for a week or do a little bit of exploring. A great place for either path. The owner was incredibly responsive to any of our inquiries.
A remote get a way
This cabin was cozy and comfortable. All the amenities of home. It is remote, but not so remote as to be an inconvenience to go anywhere. Would we come back again? Most likely.
Quite, relaxing and private.
The property was everything we were expecting. We especially enjoyed sitting out on the deck listening to the creek flow past the cabin. The only negative we encountered was a thunderstorm that caused the power to go out. We wished there had been a candle around so that we were not in the dark for so long.
Exactly as advertised great stay owner very responsive
This location gave us great access to the southern side of great smokey mountains. We spent time in Telico Plains, Nanthala National Forest and Cherokee NC. Perfect place to relax.
Enjoyable Vacation Home
We enjoyed our stay in this quaint creek front cabin. The owner was excellent to work with and the cabin was well stocked. We enjoyed walking the paths along the creek (except for the huge dogs we came upon after ending up along the roadside) and seeing all of the beautiful colors. Sitting out on the porch with a cup of coffee and a book in the morning was part of my favorite part of the stay. There was plenty of kindling to be found along the paths for the sweet fireplace inside. We chose to snuggle up on the comfy couch inside instead of using the outdoor fire pit. This location was far enough to be in the country but just around the corner from plenty of stores, etc. It was an excellent choice as far as location goes to do several day trips in all four directions. We especially enjoyed the John C. Campbell school and the River Walk in Murphy. I don't think anyone would be disappointed if they chose to stay here! Thank you again Mr. Wiley for sharing your mountain home with us.
