About this property

Enjoy the sites & activities in a pet friendly North Carolina mountain getaway!

Relax with the whole family in this peaceful, pet friendly, mountain cabin surrounded by the Nantahala National Forest. You can drive any vehicle to navigate the winding roads and access our flat gravel driveway. You'll enjoy the peace and quiet as you relax out on the wrap around deck and take in the beautiful peekaboo mountain views. Grill out on the back deck and watch a portion of the sun set. Sit around the newly upgraded fire pit and make s'mores with the kids. Our house features three levels of warm and inviting amenities to make your next visit to the wilderness, everything you expected and more. Enjoy our two large screen TVs connected to the Dish Network! Shoot pool, play foosball, or video games with the Wii U! DSL Wireless Internet is available for checking emails and light streaming.
Activities just outside our cabin include a short walk down to a portion of Lake Hiawassee, for viewing and fishing. Another option is to follow the gravel road past the cabin you will be in the Nantahala National Forest for an easy hiking experience. We have seen deer walking through our property and we have heard of bear spotting’s.
Activities that you will need to drive to experience include the nearby Mountain View Marina which is approximately 15 minutes away and has all your boating, fishing, and rental needs. Just past the marina you will see the TVA dam where there is a view of the lake and picnicking area. Other outdoor activities include white water rafting, hiking, fishing, tubing, biking, wineries, brew pubs, Porche driving experience and more. Enjoy all the local area has to offer including the 20-minute drive to historic downtown Murphy for shopping and dining.
Indoor activities include Harrah’s Casino just 10 minutes past downtown Murphy.

Clean, everything we needed, all the comforts of home!
This rental property was beautiful! The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pots, and pans, and even a crockpot. The only thing missing were some baking dishes, casserole, and like. We love the view of the mountains from the front porch. It was a little ways from downtown Murphy so you want to make sure you have everything you need from the grocery store before you head home up the mountain. We highly recommend this rental!!

Beautiful!
Everything was so clean and pretty. Since we stayed over Christmas there were cute decorations and lights put up for us. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking. We arrived after dark so the road was a bit treacherous! It was fine during the day. We had great internet, but absolutely no cell phone service with our carrier. Would definitely recommend. Thank you!

Great cabin!!
I would recommend this cabin to anyone! Great location tucked away but close enough to shopping and dining. This cabin is very well taken care of! Plenty of linens and stocked kitchen I.e, appliances, utensils dishes etc. Patty has a great information book to look through and she was also very responsive to any questions we did have. We can’t wait to rent this cabin again next year!

Great place.
This place deserves a million stars. It was a great location, more wildlife, and the host was very helpful and communicated very well with you. I would definitely want to stay there a million times over. It was like a home away from home. I just can't thank the host enough for letting us stay there.

Great family getaway!
Lacking for nothing! This house was spotless, well stocked, and close to everything. It was one of the best VRBO vacation homes we've been to. Hosts are thoughtful and attentive and responsive to our needs. The pool table was a big hit, wrap around porch was great for eating outdoors, and we never turned on the tv once! Can't wait to go again!
