About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
A peaceful haven in the Smokies for birdwatchers and nature lovers alike.
We are seeking vacationers, and short-term renters for our charming two-bedroom, one-bath mountain cabin located in Murphy, North Carolina. This cozy retreat is conveniently situated just minutes away from the casino, the Ocoee River, numerous beautiful parks, hiking trails, horseback riding opportunities, and various shops.
Our cabin is perfect for individuals on short-term business assignments or those who are relocating and awaiting their property to become available. It is fully furnished and stocked with luxury towels, linens, and brand new mattresses. The cabin features excellent Wi-Fi connectivity, and while it does not have central air conditioning—having never required it—there are portable units available, as well as baseboard heaters and a lovely fire place for cozy evenings.
We invite travelers looking for accommodations ranging from two days to six months to experience this delightful home. The cabin is located near the charming town of Murphy, which offers a variety of eclectic shops, restaurants, and attractions, including the casino, picturesque creeks, hiking trails, horseback riding, antique shops, the Folk School, and the Ocoee River. Additionally, it is a short drive to the Cherokee Reservation, Blue Ridge Mountains, Ruby Falls, Helen, Georgia, and other exciting destinations.
We look forward to welcoming you to our mountain cabin!
I will offer a significant price decrease for a three to six month rental paid in full.
Please do not inquire if you are looking for anything more than 6 months, or if you are wanting to bring your own furniture or appliances. Most Service dogs are welcome.
The cabin features a kitchen and space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. The cabin also includes a fireplace.

We loved it!
We were very pleased with the property. It was spacious and clean.
The mattress for the bed in the main bedroom needs to be replaced but otherwise we had no issues.
Thank you for allowing my family (3 adults, 3 kids) the opportunity to stay in your cabin!

Very cute cabin! I think it had about everything you would need to enjoy your trip.
Great place! We really enjoyed the peace and quiet. It does not have cable but it does not advertise that is has cable, i does have smart TV and you can find just about anything you want to watch. We we recommend it to any looking for nice place in the Murphy area. You can not beat the price for all it includes.

Over all it was ok
The cabin was not exactly what we thought it would be... During fall you prob have a mountain view but spring and summer... There is not really a view. You have neighbors and they close but still very quiet area... It's a wooded area so if your looking for a getaway not so much for views but just get a way. It's a good choice. The homeowner was very nice checked in w us daily. Think our trip would have been better had we not had the stress of our vehicle breaking down the second day of our stay 6 he's from home.... And not having a place opened when it happened... Cause on a Saturday at 12 everything as far as that goes shuts down. But we did relax. There is no cable... The homeowner was very polite and gave is access to Netflix. But if are looking to unplug and get away.. U cn do that here. Although it's not what we had expected we enjoyed. We have been coming to the mountains every year in July for our anniversary usually gatlinburg... We split our trip this year cpl nights in Nc and a few in gatlinburg. I think we will prob stick wjust gatlinburg. There isn't really a lot to do in Murphy... But again if you are looking to get away from it all it's a perfect place. Thank you for sharing your cabin.
