Mountain Creek Retreat - 5 minutes from Downtown Murphy - Secluded

Stay in the Nantahala national forest as our cabin is a 5-star experience secluded with your own 2-acre park/campground where you can relax at a creekside picnic table or at the firepit. Peaceful with no nearby neighbors. As you sit on the front porch you will see deer, turkey, and all of the local wildlife. All of this privacy and only 5 minutes from downtown Murphy as well as the Harrah's Casino. You will have a paved circular driveway that will allow you to pull up to the front door and for motorcycles a garage to park in. The property is fully fenced if you are bringing your pet. We provide firewood for the fire pit.

Our cabin offers all of the modern conveniences (High-Speed Internet, Direct TV, and an outdoor grill) as well as a wood-burning fireplace in the main area. Our front outdoor porch is the perfect place for a barbeque and our outdoor deck offers prime wildlife viewing, a morning cup of coffee and a good book, or an evening glass of wine. Our full kitchen includes all modern appliances and fully stocked with everything needed for preparing meals. We have a queen master bedroom with an attached bathroom, a loft bedroom with two twins and a private bathroom, and a sleeper sofa in the living room.

Our guests all say we have a "GEM" and they will be back!

We had a fabulous time at the cabin. Great place to stay. Our dog had a great time barking and watching all the wildlife. Best time sitting on the back patio area watching nature. Say deer, a turkey or two. Eric and Zoe were great host. Loved the fresh eggs and wine on our first night. We plan on returning back to the cabin when make our next trip that way.

Wonderful, cozy cabin
We had the best time in Zoe and Eric’s cabin! Super clean, well stocked with all the amenities! Close to downtown but tucked into the woods so very, very quiet. Beautifully decorated for Christmas. You can tell they put a lot of care and thought into their cabin. Thank you for everything!

Peaceful cabin in the woods
We wanted to checkout Murphy and found this peace of heaven traveling with our dogs. We loved it was minutes from restaurants, breweries and shopping. We are avid hikers and loved local towns and hikes were close by. We are looking forward to staying again. Thank you for your hospitality again.

Peaceful cabin getaway!
We had such a peaceful stay! The cabin was perfect with all wood finish & cabin decor you hope for with a cabin getaway in the mountains. (We also loved the cute Bigfoot decor. It was actually what first caught my eye when we were looking for a cabin.) The cabin was clean and well stocked with everything you need. I love that the hosts, Eric and Zoe, live close by if you need them, but far enough that you can’t even see their home because of all the trees. You can’t see any other homes from the cabin either, so you feel completely secluded in the forest! However it’s close to town to go out to eat or site see surrounding areas. We didn’t even need to contact the hosts because we had no issues at all during our stay. They give you complete privacy and only messaged us once to let us know they are close if we have any issues. We enjoyed our family getaway! Also, we are a family of four, so having two full bathrooms is a plus, many cabins I looked at in my search only had one bathroom. We definitely hope to stay at this cabin again!
