Beautiful, comfy cabin in a quiet, picturesque setting complete with birds and deer! Comfortable beds and nice bathrooms. Loved the sunrise view from the loft bedroom as well as its ensuite bathroom. Spacious decks and fire pit allowed for lots of outdoor time! Hosts were very responsive to questions. We would definitely recommend Goshen Overlook to any family or group looking for a peaceful getaway in nature!

Everything was wonderful, heated floors in bathrooms was such a bonus when exiting the hot tub or shower! Water does have a sulfur (rotten egg) smell. So you may want to bring water bottles but other that that everything was wonderful. Fully stocked, and probably the best stocked property I've ever stayed at.

Lovely Cabin

We had a great time at the cabin. The view of the mountains were amazing and the sunrises wonderful. The cabin was one of the most well stocked we have been in and the fire pit was the highlight of the night. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Great family stay near Murphy!

We took our four grandchildren to Murphy to attend the Little/Middle Folk School for the week. We all had a great time and really enjoyed the property. It was a great place to spread out and have our own space. Loved the outdoor patio, hot tub and fire pit as well. Would definitely stay here again!

Perfect family get away!

We absolutely loved our time in this beautiful cabin in a beautiful neighborhood. We only wish we had more time to enjoy all the cabin had to offer. It was clean, well stocked kitchen, hot tub, family room complete with games, comfy beds, and fire pit. We would definitely stay again if ever in the area. The host was quick to respond and help answer any questions we had. 10 out of 10 experience!

Cabin was very relaxing.

Great time…..just what we needed for our weekend trip. The water smelt horrible & tasted bad. I think it was the sulfa in the water. Everything else was awesome!

Goshen Overlook

Our stay at this beautiful cabin in Murphy, NC was a wonderful experience for our family and friends this summer. The location and neighborhood had amazing views and loop to walk around on top of the mountain. We saw deer almost every day. The communication with the owners was very prompt and helpful whenever we had questions. We made unforgettable memories here that we will always cherish with our friends and children. Thank you for opening up this beautiful property for us to stay at.

Lovely House in the Woods

This house was the perfect stay for my entire family. My son and his family stayed on the lower level and the kids had plenty of room to roam. My daughter and her husband stayed on the main level and my husband and I had the loft with a fantastic view of the sunrise. Everyone had their own bathroom. The home was well cared for and clean. We had everything at our disposal. We did not use the hot tub because we spent most of our hours with my brother and his family for the Thanksgiving holiday. They live practically around the corner and this home was the perfect location for us. We would definitely stay here again with no hesitation.

Beautiful Mountain R and R

The cabin is beautiful and wonderfully decorated. The beds/mattressesn were great. This makes a world of difference when traveling. Only negativity the cabin was hot, thermostat was set at 79 yes 79 during a heat wave. The nest and main floor thermostat was set at 79. The thermostat in the loft and lower level was turned off. We were not sure if the nest was to cool the whole house or if the thermostats had to be on. We were able to get the house cooled off before going to bed. There is a box fan in the loft closet. That was a necessity for sleeping in the loft. The cabin was very enjoyable and we had a great visit.

Great Cabin Getaway!!!

This cabin is so precious!!! The views were spectacular from the back porch all the way up to the loft bedroom!!! The interior is themed with bears and cozy mountain themes. We loved the layout as you have plenty of open space as well as private spaces to getaway from the group. Loved the hot water feature in the kitchen- perfect for that quick cup of tea!!! The bed located in the loft was super comply and the bathrooms around the house are spacious enough for any size group. Lots of blankets and pillows in each room. We come up to this area annually and stay around the local town and we just loved this cabin. We really enjoyed the fireplace in the main living area the most. What a perfect setting for relaxing after a day at the local folk school and watching the sunrise in the mornings. Just beautiful!!! The owners were able to answer questions quickly and provided lots of information in the guest book. Can’t wait to come back next year!!!!

Gorgeous Property But ...

I really wanted to give this Property 5-Stars because it was wonderful with a couple of exceptions. The Good: Property is spacious, secluded, quiet, and well laid out. Communication with host was excellent. The home had mostly everything you would expect including a Hot Tub and Fire-Pit. The home was clean and comfortable - I only used the upstairs bedroom and bed was very comfortable. The Bad: Surveillance - when I entered the home, an Alarm started beeping. I didn't have the code in-hand so the Alarm sounded until I got it disarmed. There was a Camera at the front-door and this didn't bother me but the Alarm inside the home sensed your presence (infrared sensor) and there was a separate Infrared sensor downstairs in the family room. When I went outside to check on the Hot Tub, I noticed the water was extremely Low but no hose available so I made 20 trips to the Laundry room sink to fill a gallon pitcher and bring the level up somewhat. The Hot Tub also looked like it may have needed some TLC and I passed this along to the Host. I noticed a Camera that focused down on the Hot Tub and that took me by surprise - I ended up putting plastic bags over it because I felt an intrution of privacy. I used the Hot Tub nightly and rinsed off right afterward. The Ugly: I don't quite understand how this wasn't disclosed but there was an extremely high content of iron in the water which smelt bad, stained towels, sink, and toilets. I used bottle-water to brush teeth.

Response from VrboOwner on 26 Sept 2024
I regret that you found issue with our surveillance system. We have had multiple break in attempts so it is unfortunately a necessity. All guests are provided with the disarm codes; once disarmed the only camera that remains active is the front porch and driveway. The downstairs camera is focused on the door and the hot tub is near the door. Again, as was communicated to the guest, that camera is disarmed when the system is disarmed. Per VRBO and AirBnB policy THERE ARE NO CAMERAS INSIDE THE HOME. There are smoke alarms throughout that will show lights with motion when lights/power is off. This is a safety feature. There are sound alarms in the basement and main floor that monitor for breaking glass but again, only when the system is armed. There are no infrared sensors in the house. When Matthew notified us the hot tub needed water, we in turn notified our maintenance person who came by the same day, however as guest stated he had already adjusted the water level. As for the iron content, it is what it is; we have a whole house 2- stage water filter. All guests are told that we’re are on a well; when there is a drought like WNC is in, iron content can increase. We compensate as best we can. I am glad you enjoyed our home; you are welcome to come again anytime.
