Overview
Cabin, 2 Bedrooms + Loft, 2 Baths, (Sleeps 6)
If you need a place to get away from all the stress, look no further 'Laurel Creek' is where you want to rest! This cabin is new and has a great view of the creek.
The smoke-free cabin has all new furniture and is decorated very tastefully with country charm. You can sit back on one of the rockers and take in a nice book, or just take a swing on the porch with a loved one with a nice cold glass of lemonade, while listening to the rippling creek.
There is a wrap-around porch with a private porch off the master bedroom, a great view of the creek! The kids will love the creek, just look under a few rocks and discover all sorts of critters. You might even see a beaver or two playing in the creek or passing by. Leave some corn for deers to feed on in the back yard.
In the fall hear the wild turkeys and spot a deer in the meadow a short walk away. End you day by relaxing in the jacuzzi on our deck, while doing some stargazing!

About Tim & Kathy Shearer
Hello, we are Tim and Kathy Shearer and are the owners of Laurel Creek Cabin. We live in sunny south Florida with our three beautiful daughters. We love the warm weather and beach here, but we also love to get away and go to the mountains and stay at Laurel Creek. We decided to let others stay at our lovely cabin in 2004. Of course many of our close friends and family jumped into the offers we gave to them. They all loved it and that's when we opened it to all to enjoy. We hope you will be our next satisfied guest....God Bless....Tim & Kathy
Tim & Kathy Shearer purchased this cabin in 2003
Why Tim & Kathy Shearer chose Murphy
We decided to buy in this location because of it being in the tri-state area, meaning within minutes to TN, NC, and GA. We also liked the peacefulness and all the many places to see and do in the area. We had been coming to this area for five years and decided just to buy since we loved it so much.
What makes this cabin unique
On site fishing, tubing, and wading in the creek along with the campfires at night roasting marshmellows and star gazing in hot tub
Guestbook comments from the owner
Rick and I had a wonderful time at your cabin. The cabin had all we needed and more. It was so peaceful and relaxing, which is what we both needed. The hot tub was perfect for the cooler nights with a small glass of wine. We wished we could of stayed longer, maybe next time we will. Was not able to see everything in the area, but got a chance to go to the Ocoee River, what a sight! Loved every minute of our stay. Would recommend it to any family small or large.

Spacious Cabin with nice yard and creek
We stayed August 6 -10, 2017. 2 adults, 2 teens and our dog . Cabin was clean, spacious, comfortable. Kitchen, TV, Wi-Fi, Jacuzzi, all worked. Deer, hummingbirds, and lightening bugs visited every day. Nice wrap-around porch. Relaxing small creek to listen to and play in. Roasted marshmallows in the fire pit and played horseshoes in the back yard. We rafted the Ocoee in Tennessee, Tubed the Toccoa and rode horses in Georgia, caught trout in North Carolina. All within 20 minutes of the cabin. Entire family thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Could not take a bath or shower
I have to say the place itself is lovely. The creek and yard are very nice. The cabin is nice to look at. My concern was the fact that we could not use the master bedroom or bath due to a swarm of wasps. The downstairs bath had no water pressure, so we could not take a shower. We also saw a few cockroaches in the kitchen. For what this cost I expected better . I did notify the owner, so the water and wasp situation could be corrected before the next guest arrived.
Relaxing Stay Near Murphy
My wife and I, along with two of our grandchildren and two dogs, just finished staying a week at Laurel Creek Cabin. The cabin is nicely laid out on what looked to be well over an acre of land, which was plenty of room for the kids to play and dogs to roam. The cabin is in a great location for the area, with Murphy less than 10 miles away and Blue Ridge, GA about 15 miles away. The creek in the back was a bonus and the boys enjoyed playing in the cool water. The creek has a nice flow to it, although the water level went down a little each day. We did not receive any rain while we were there, which probably added to the drop. The tire swing in the back kept the boys busy for short intervals. There was a good selection of channels to watch on TV, and there is Wi-Fi at the cabin. The hot tub was a relaxing way to end the day, and the hummingbirds kept us entertained at the feeder on the back porch. There are a few things that could use some maintenance, as most cabins do, but nothing that kept us from enjoying our stay, or from coming back in the future! Overall we had a great, relaxing stay!
Disappointed
The cabin itself is nice. Hot tub and fire pit were great. My issue was the dirty condition on our arrival. Floors needed sweeping, dirty refrigerator and silver ware drawer. Dirty outside table and so dusty we could write on the mirror in the bedroom. You pay for cleaning and whoever does their housekeeping needs to do their job. I did text Tim the owner and sent pictures of what we experienced he didn't seem to care. He was however busy getting ready for the hurricane. I also found it was strange your responsible for removing and taking your garbage with you or they charge you a fee.
Beautiful
The house is beautiful and very well maintained. It was even more kid-friendly than I originally thought, including a pack and play crib and a baby gate to keep little ones off the stairs. The kids enjoyed the creek and the tire swing, and we all enjoyed watching the all the wildlife, including deer, rabbits, hummingbirds and butterflies. Would definitely stay here again!
Comfortable cabin w/ a good location.
The location was perfect for us, and other than the hot tub needing a bit of cleaning, the cabin was very clean & well kept, and very comfortable.
