This was one of the nicest places my wife and I have ever rented. Very clean and neat with wonderful grounds and a great view of lake and property from an elevated deck. We enjoyed our stay as did our yellow lab Ellie who loved swimming in the lake.

Your home was the perfect getaway spot as we relaxed and enjoyed the lake view in the peaceful setting. We appreciated your prompt and informative communication, everything we needed was available in your comfortable home. The photos posted on VRBO captured the surrounding beauty and coziness of your cottage. We highly recommend your property. The 15-20 min drive to Murphy NC & Blairsville GA provided a wide selection of restaurants and shopping. Thank you! Terry & Kathy

Great weekend stay at the lake

We really enjoyed the visit. It's a smaller house, but you'll want to be outside the whole time anyway. Nice big deck, dock, great lake for fishing/swimming. Very quiet setting.

Great place to stay, not too far from food or town. Very quiet and peaceful place to get some much needed R&R. Sunrise and sunsets are simply amazing looking out over the water. Great catch and release fishing. Can’t wait to go back for another visit.

Absolutely loved the property! Everything was as described. Loved the view and the lake. Very peaceful yet close to Murphy and great food. The property manager was the best of anywhere we have stayed. She was genuinely interested in our plans for the trip to make sure the area offered what we were looking for. She also contacted us after we needed to leave for a family emergency to check on us. Above and beyond. We will definitely return!

Great Getaway

Very comfortable, enjoyed sightseeing to 2 wineries, Historical Museum, antique stores, biblical park, rail car ride & rafting the Ocoee. Well stocked kitchen, appliances all worked, very peaceful around the fire pit, eating on the porch, reading on the dock, taking the canoe & boat out on the lake. Would definitely stay here again. Phyllis & Pete are great hosts.
