Our stay was wonderful. The cabin had everything we wanted and needed for a great week! We really enjoyed sitting out on the back porch in the mornings drinking coffee and evenings listening to the tree frogs. Thank you again Bonnie for sharing your beautiful cabin with us!

We enjoyed our stay so very much! Granddaddy's Cabin was perfect! Thank you for the sweet surprise. (I won't ruin it for others. lol) We had a kick trying to figure out who everyone was in the pictures! Such a beautiful family. The bidet was a neat surprise and something we weren't used to. I think my favorite thing was the bed on the screened in the porch. Had the weather been a little warmer, we might have just slept out there. Thank you for sharing your sweet cabin with us. If we are ever back in the area we will be staying with you.

The cabin was perfect for two senior citizens to get away and unwind. Communication with Bonnie was excellent. We had a small glitch not caused by anything the hosts had done and Bonnie quickly responded. It gave us a chance to meet Bonnie and Randy, which was great because we all watched the end of the UGA vs Auburn game. Misery loves company Back to the cabin. I was pleasantly surprised at how quiet it was inside. The cabin is beautiful and tastefully decorated. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen has everything you need to fix meals, minus the groceries. The bathrooms were spotless and the water pressure in the showers were awesome. We really enjoyed the outside hot tub, which was much needed after a day of visiting Apple orchards and shopping. I highly recommend this cabin if you’re looking for a place to stay in Murphy. Thank you Bonnie and Randy for sharing your beautiful cabin and the Dawgs’ loss with us.

What a great place! Just 10 minutes out of town, but we felt like we were in the middle of the woods. Very cool and shady and the back screened patio was wonderful. I thought the whole cabin was better than the listing even shows. We brought our dog and were able to go for walks every day. We also did the Riverwalk downtown Murphey. That was great! The cabin location is a wonderful starting place to explore the area. We were all very comfortable from the great shower to the comfortable beds and a full kitchen. We used the washer and dryer, which worked well. It was very peaceful and hope to come back during the fall season. I’m sure it will be beautiful.

Overall this was a nice stay. Communication with the host was smooth and very friendly. Cabin was affordable, very clean, and quiet. A lot of small touches added, which we appreciated. However, I did choose to give this rental 4 stars due to all the steps required before using the hot tub and the quality of the hot tub. I have rented in several locations over the years and never have I had to go through so many chemical steps as a guest to use the hot tub. After waiting almost 2 hours for the chemicals to be on point and time you must wait between each round of steps, it almost wasn't worth the effort because the jets are very weak and this took away from time relaxing. Other than the issues with the hot tub and the numerous personal family photos which takes away from the overall vacation escape feel, the cabin is in great condition.

We're happy you enjoyed your stay at Granddaddy's Cabin. Our very reasonable prices reflect self service with respect to hot tub start up, which we've found most people prefer. However, we do offer hot tub preparation and heat up for an additional fee.

This by far was the cleanest, most equipped for a comfortable stay. Granddaddys Cabin was the best we have ever stayed at. The hot tub was perfect. This home was dedicated to Granddad with all of the family pictures and personal items to make you feel that you are spending time at a family or friends house. We will be traveling back to the area for future business and we hope the cabin will be available for our next stay. Thank you to the gracious hosts for doing such a wonderful job.
