About this property

Luxury Dog Friendly Chalet in Murphy, NC with Views and fenced yard!

3 Dog Mountain Retreat
Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains, this beautiful, quiet chalet is the ideal spot for a peaceful retreat. This home is the perfect balance of rustic and modern with tons of natural light. Enjoy the natural tranquility with all the creature comforts you could want. Easily accessible on paved roads, this single level two-bedroom, two-bath home is less than a 2-hour drive from Atlanta, Asheville or Chattanooga. Located in Murphy, North Carolina between the Hiawassee River and Valley River, there is plenty to do in every season or just come to relax and take in the mountain views. Unwind in front of the cozy fireplace with a book or play a game on the arcade. The kitchen is well appointed with everything a chef could ask for. The master bedroom has a king-size bed, large walk in closet and en-suite bathroom with separate vanities and a large tiled shower. The second bedroom has a queen bed and the sofa in the den is a queen pull out bed. Both bedrooms have large televisions, plenty of storage and French doors that lead out to the deck. The outdoor space includes a large dining table, gas grill and foosball table as well as an inviting sectional with lots of room to spread out and take in the clear night sky. We guarantee that your pups will love playing in the large fenced-in yard while you sit around the firepit.
The house is conveniently located 15 minutes from quaint downtown Murphy with its many shops, restaurants and movie theater. Harrah’s Cherokee casino is there as well. Other nearby attractions include John C. Campbell Folk School, Two Crows Alpaca Farm and tons of fishing and hiking options. There is a great hiking trail just steps from the house. Also nearby are miniature golf, canoeing and much more. Downtown Blue Ridge is just 25 minutes away.

We look forward to hosting you at 3 Dog Mountain Retreat!

We were thoroughly delighted when we arrived at our cabin. The drive was a bit steep but the property was inviting and engaging. We traveled with our two pups and they thoroughly enjoyed the fenced back yard. The cabin had us paced for a perfect relaxing get away. It was peaceful and tranquil. The kitchen was well stocked with spices and dishes and kitchenware. The front deck had furniture and a grill. The pups were remembered also. There were toys and beds and everything they needed for a relaxing vacay. There was a fire pit in the yard with sitting chairs to enjoy. There was a problem with the water pump but the hosts responded quickly and the problem resolved. We would stay there again and highly recommend.

Great cabin

Really enjoyed the cabin and the location. Pups loved the fenced yard and inside toys. Kitchen well stocked and outdoor grill came in handy for steaks. Fire pit was used and really enjoyed it. Road our motorcycles all over the area and of course did the popular loops. Best part of the day was returning back to the cabin and navigating the driveway which is pretty steep and not for the faint of heart. Overall great vacation and will rent again.

5-star experience

The owners understand what it means to travel with our “kid.” Beautifully decorated home, and well furnished, down to the night lights scattered throughout the house. The kitchen was very organized…everything was labeled and easy to find. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and plan to return.

Everything was excellent. There is no better place to go to enjoy a vacation with your dogs. We all loved the fencced in yard and nearby private trail . The house itself was so pretty with plenty of space and storage. The beds were so comfortable. Great lighting. So well equipped. Usually , houses in mountain towns are hard to get to... steep windy, gravely roads. This house was easy to access... paved roads, not steep nor windy. Plenty of privacy. We were so happy with everything. So many things to see and within a half hour drive. And, to top it all off, even

Staying in a treehouse

From the moment we dropped our bags in the entry way we were completely relaxed. The large windows the view from the back patio was like being up in a treehouse. The deck was oversized to accommodate my husband, and I and our two dogs, and with the enclosed fenced yard. We felt safe and secure to let the dogs play. Randy and Deborah really thought of everything from the amenities in the bathroom to the exceptionally soft linens in the bed and when you get to the master bathroom, the shower it’s like you stepped into a spa. Get ready to get a little exercise in if you take a walk around the neighborhood with the steep incline. We got to see deer with their fawns playing in the adjacent yard. If you’re looking to escape noise and people this is the perfect house to come to.

Outstanding

Peaceful, quiet, 10 deer visited a few times. Spent every evening on the porch watching sun go behind mountains. Our 2 dogs were able to run around in the large fenced in back yard. Interior was immaculate. Centrally locked to different towns and many hiking trails. Hosts were kind answering my many questions within a few hours. One of the best places we have ever stayed.

Best vrbo for R&R!

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at 3 Dog Mountain Retreat. It was a heavenly week of R&R for us and our pups! It was a gorgeous set-up with plenty of space for everyone to relax - inside and out. We enjoyed the lounge furniture on the deck and fell asleep out there in the evenings a few times! They've thought of everything need for you and your pup(s) which was fantastic! We would definitely book again!

Perfection

We enjoyed ALL the comforts of home while on our vacation getaway. From the beautiful house and location, to the peace and relaxation, we were thoroughly able to get away and reset. We spent all weekend reading, taking naps, sitting by the firepit and taking in the gorgeous Mountain view. It was perfect to celebrate my son’s birthday and bring our pup, Gracie.
