Cozy Mountain Retreat! Lake & Mountain Views, Pet friendly! Fiber internet!!

Need a break from reality? Are the mountains calling you for a quiet, peaceful getaway? Time for a sabbatical? Goal setting retreat? Girls weekend? Just the 2 of you? Whether you are traveling alone or as a group, come rejuvenate in our tranquil little cottage with the lake views and beautiful mountain setting where birds sing and squirrels run.

At Morning Glory Cottage (3 bed, 2 bath, maximum capacity 6) you can enjoy the quiet sunrises from our full-length screen porch. In the evening take a short walk to experience the sun setting across the Nantahala National Forest and finish the evening enjoying the outdoor firepit, indoor wood-burning fireplace or our favorite quiet conversation on the screen porch.

The main level has one step from the driveway into the house for easy access for limited mobility guests. Main level features 2 bedrooms (1 king and 1 queen) and a full bath with walk-in shower. Perfect for guests of all ages and physical abilities. The main level also has a fully-stocked kitchen, dining area for 6 and den with wood-burning fireplace and gas starter! (Firewood available seasonally.)

The best part is full-length screened porch with treehouse year-round views of Lake Hiawasee and Nantahala mountains. The lower level features a large media room with game table, master bedroom (king) and full bath with walk-in shower and claw-foot tub, laundry room and access to full-length covered porch with more lake and mountain views.

Morning Glory Cottage is in the Bear Paw Community of Lake Hiwassee where North Carolina, Tennessee and Georgia come together (not to be confused with the town of Hiawassee, Georgia on Lake Chatuge). We are 30 minutes west of Murphy, North Carolina and a 2 hour drive from Atlanta GA, Chattanooga TN, Knoxville TN and Asheville NC.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.
