Location: Murphy, Smoky Mountains, North Carolina, USA (2 hours from Asheville, NC; Atlanta, GA; & Chattanooga, TN)

Accommodations:  House, 3 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths (Sleeps 6-8)

Keywords:  House

Situated on the banks of the beautiful Nottely River, you will find our home a relaxing escape from everyday life. Pull up a chair, or lean back and snuggle in on our porch swing, to watch the river flow by, or stare into the pines and hardwoods of the Nantahala Game Lands beyond, for a glimpse of whitetail deer.

Secluded, yet convenient. We're at the "end of the road", but only a short ten to fifteen minute drive from Murphy, the center of everything in this part of Western North Carolina! Located between the Ocoee River in Tennessee, and the Nantahala River in North Carolina where whitewater Olympic contenders have trained. Here you will find a town reminiscent of days gone by with a very walkable main street and enough cafes, restaurants, and shops to keep you interested. Side-by-side flea markets close by on weekends, flea market in the city on Tuesdays, and even a downtown farmers market on Saturdays. This is just a beautiful area to travel the back roads and create your own adventure!

Things to do:
For those who enjoy a more active vacation, there's blue-ribbon trout streams, golfing, canoeing, kayaking, whitewater rafting, boating, horseback riding, hiking trails, mountain biking trails, and ATV trails, all within a few minutes drive of this quiet retreat on the river.

Wait, there is even more! Drive the Cherohala Skyway (rivals the Blue Ridge Parkway for unobstructed long-range views). Ride the "Tail of the Dragon" through Deal's Gap. Tree watch in the Joyce Kilmore Memorial Forest. Visit the John Campbell Folk School for classes in folk art, crafts, contra-dancing, blacksmithing, bluegrass music, etc. Or just take a drive through a country-side replete with post card views.

Daytrips: Blue Ridge, Georgia has wonderful downtown shops and you must visit the Toccoa Riverside Restaurant for a wonderful meal.
