No yard. Only thing to do is have a fire in the pit. Almost any outdoor activity will need to take place elsewhere. Other than that what a cool cabin to stay in. Quiet area and a very nice view.

Perfect for our vacation

This is a beautiful cabin with a great west-facing mountain view. The cabin had everything we needed, including a crock pot (a lifesaver seeing as mine gave up the ghost on our way up). The beds were very comfortable. The host was very easy to communicate with. We'd be very happy staying here again.

Beautiful Cabin

This is a gorgeous location and a very clean, efficient cabin. We found it easily and appreciated the level to which to kitchen was furnished. Master bathroom door does not latch, matresses were not incredibly comfortable and the bedding was far to thin for such chilly mountain air. But we would retrun with blankets from home.

Christmas stay

Sarah’s cabin was so cute and cozy. My boys and I go to the mountains every year for Christmas and we love this tradition so much. This cabin was very clean, great location and view, even though you’re very close to neighbors it was very quiet and serene so the proximity didn’t bother me. The listing says a hot tub and that is something we always look for and there was not one. The entry instructions were outdated so a little confusing getting in but other than that we had a wonderful holiday stay! Thank you for sharing your beautiful cabin with us!

New, clean, comfortable cabin with great view

The cabin is very new and master bed and bath were very comfortable, as was the living room couch. Nice washer and dryer. Nice kitchen. Very nice back porch with great view. Can hear Whip-poor-wills and coyotes at night. Cabin is so new they are not done furnishing it yet. No bedside tables/lamps at time we were there, but there are TV trays you can use to put your phone/glasses on. Perfect for up to 4 people. Dining table a tad small for a bigger group. Highly recommend for couples, small families.

Great Get-A-Way

What a beautiful cabin this was! Thank you for accommodating us and allowing us to spend a much needed vacation in your cozy and spacious cabin. The accommodations and amenities were beyond our expectations. We enjoyed reading your cabin binder which was very helpful and informative. We did not need for anything. Just a couple noteworthy items to suggest: The sign nailed to the beam on the large deck was knocking against the beam which was a bit noisy during the night; perhaps nailing the bottom of the sign to the beam would cut down the knocking noise. Also, we were a bit caught off guard by the closeness of the other cabins. This was not mentioned nor were there any photos that showed the closeness of the other cabins. This bit of information would be helpful and more transparent to mention for future guests when looking for a private getaway. Thank you again for sharing your BEAUTIFUL Cabin! Dawn and Gary

Fun Relaxing Weekend

Cabin was super clean. Wonderful property. Other cabins right next door but neighbors were quiet. Road going in is fairly steep and mostly 1 lane. Do not use maps/gps to find. Use provided directions and it will take you straight there. Cabin was very nice and we would definitely recommend.

Great Stay in Murphy, NC

The property is brand new and in great shape. Gorgeous mountain views from the back deck and is situated close to town. The cabin is well furnished and had everything we needed. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend it to anyone with small families. The neighbors are extremely friendly and we found ourselves in multiple conversations with them during our stay. This was just what we were looking for in a family retreat.

Wonderful cabin

What a great cabin with plenty of room and beautiful views of the mountains off in the distance. Enjoyed the large porch and rockers. Awesome evening down by the fire pit, with a clear star filled sky. Will be coming back here again! One note about the GPS directions - don’t use. Use the written directions in the reservation confirmation.
