I have absolutely nothing bad to say about the host or the cabin. it is absolutely the cleanest place i have ever stayed...we have stayed twice and Julie is always quick to respond when we have a question. Its close to Murphy but not so close you feel like you are in the city. I would highly recommend Gentle Bens to anyone staying in the area, no regrets.

We have stayed at many cabins (mostly in Virginia) some of them better than others, this cabin was one of our favorites so far, very close to town but far enough away to feel like you are in the country. We would 100% go back the next time we are in Murphy.

this property is stunning. So comfortable, just right for 2 couples or family. It has all the extras, even games, puzzles, the wrap around porch has the most comfortable rockers. We didn't get to use the fire pit because of the wind, but will DEF stay here again!! There were deer everywhere!! so neat and close enough to town, that it was very convenient!!

My wife and I stayed 5 nights in this lovely and well appointed cabin. Everything was as described: the decoration was beautiful, the furniture and appliances were top notch and the bathrooms were ample and modern. The cabin was clean and spotless. We highly recommend it. We certainly plan to return.

The cabin is wonderful! Very, very clean, fully stocked kitchen, perfect location, easy to access, close to everything. The layout of the cabin is very cozy and homey feeling. The neighborhood is wonderful, quiet and absolutely loved all the wildlife - deer, baby deer - we saw. The hosts were easily accessed and had immediate responses and resolutions to any questions/issues we had. There wasn't anything we would suggest changing except for a fenced in area for the pups to play in. Regardless, we would definitely stay here again when coming back to Murphy.

Cozy & Quiet
A cute cabin tucked away in a quiet neighborhood, yet close to shopping. Even better, it was only a 9-minute drive to the John C. Campbell Folk School. Julie was quick to respond to our questions, and the cabin was beautifully equipped with everything we could possibly need.
