About this property

Buck Haven

Summary:

Mountain cabin with private hot tub, on-site creek, firepit & wildlife sightings



The Space:

Your new nature-infused getaway awaits you at this two-story forest cabin. Walk down to the creek right on the property for quiet contemplation, or sit out on the front porch swing or rockers and watch for the wildlife. Enjoy feeding the deer, birds, rabbits, and squirrels, then soak in the hot tub for the ultimate relaxation as the stars come out. Enjoy the wooded views from the back decks. Cook up your favorite meal on the gas or charcoal grill. Nearby, enjoy the waterfalls, the river, antique stores, vineyards, casinos, museums, hiking trails, and numerous local shops and eateries. Inside, the all-wood interior adds to the rustic feel of escaping to the woods but combines with modern amenities and upscale finishes.



This well-equipped kitchen has stainless steel appliances, sleek countertops, a large island, and everything needed to whip up your favorite meals and drinks. The two bedrooms, one on each level, are spacious, and equipped with a TV, ceiling fan, and ample closet space. One room provides a work desk and chair for remote work, or you may be inspired to write your novel. Additional perks include games, toys, central air conditioning, complimentary WiFi, and a washer/dryer. As the evenings wind down, snuggle around the gorgeous stone façade gas fireplace or sit by the outdoor fire pit. Just relax, unwind, and reconnect with family and nature. Make those lifetime memories. Buck Haven is a Home Sweet Cabin Home!

Great Stay at Buck Haven

Stayed at several cabins before and this one was my favorite. Murphy NC is lower elevation than other cabins, so easy to get there. The deer came to see us frequently, and the cabin was perfect.

Perfect place to relax

It was the little things that we so appreciated - the flashlights by the bed, creamer in the fridge, soap, shampoo & conditioner and even feed for the deer.

Perfectly secluded (but still close enough to town).

Super clean, spacious, secluded & quiet. If ever we are back in Murphy, we’ll stay here again. Bring your own Keurig though, the one that is there was broken. Quick response from management company when we let them know though. 5 Stars!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Beautiful Cabin

The log cabin is beautifully and tastefully decorated. The kitchen is equipped with terrific appliances, ice maker, and counter space. We were disappointed that the gas logs did not light per the instructions, and the poor phone service made it impossible to call and ask for help lighting the fireplace. The internet connection was also poor. I would suggest the bedroom furniture be switched so that older guests would not have to traverse the stairs in order to make use of the king bed in the upstairs bedroom. The exterior of the cabin is as advertised, with a wonderful back deck and an outdoor fireplace.
