Avalon Woods Riverfront Retreat: Walk to Waterfall

Let the calming sounds of a rushing river ease your mind from the moment you arrive at this Marble cabin! The 3-bed, 2.5-bath vacation rental has all the allure of a secluded woodland retreat but also sits within moments of downtown Murphy, Harrah's Casino, and the Nantahala National Forest. When you're not exploring the Smoky Mountain wilderness, soak in the hot tub or dine on the wraparound deck. Cap off each evening with a beverage on the deck, just in time for a colorful riverfront sunset!

Our daughters wedding
We had 3 houses rented for our family to come in for my daughter’s wedding. There were 2 different days that guys had the road blocked to the house due to maintenance on the lines. Some of our Family members had to go check in to a hotel bcuz they couldn’t get to the house. Our family members also said the house was not very clean

Amazing place and amazing people
The cabin was amazing and the owners made sure we had a truly enjoyable stay. They even took us out on their pontoon boat for a ride and lunch on one of the local lakes. I highly recommend this property and wouldve given it more stars if I could've .

A Beautiful Space
What wonderful place to stay, the hosts were very accomodating, checked in when power went out during a storm, and were available for any needs. They also respected privacy for me and my guests to relax and enjoy ourselves! The Cabin is very accommodating for some games and amazing porch to relax sit and watch beauty around. Easy access to the river for a lovely dip. And amazing front porch to sit around a nice fire. Also amazing grill and cook top!

INCREDIBLE PLACE TO STAY!!!!
The cabin is truly beautiful, and had more than enough room and amenities for our stay. The location is incredible. Kayaking in and out of the cabin grounds was a great convenience. The fishing opportunities are plentiful. We’ve stayed at several different places in the Murphy/Marble area. This cabin ranks up there with the best of them. Owners were on scene and easy to deal with and friendly. Would gladly stay there again!!

Beautiful and relaxing.
The cabin is beautiful and fully equipped. We loved all the wonderful little touches. The creek was a lot of fun. My son and husband enjoyed fishing together on the creek. I enjoyed calling out to them where I could see fish from the upstairs balcony. My daughter loved sitting out on a rock in the middle of the creek. The beds were very comfortable. The hot tub was the perfect way to end the day. Everything was super clean. The homeowners could not have been nicer or more helpful. Super nice people. My dad enjoyed the huge variety of birds that frequented the bird feeder. Tubing on Deep Creek, suggested by Howard, was totally worth the drive. White water rafting on the Ocoee amazing! The cabin feels out in the mountains, but is close to groceries and food. We really love Rib Country in Hayesville. Yumm!

We had a wonderful stay. The cabin had everything we needed and more. There were plenty of vistor information pamphlets with great local suggestions. The cabin was perfect for our family of 6. My 3 boys loved playing down stairs. The large deck and fire pit area was the perfect place to enjoy your coffee and the cool breeze. The river was a little tricky to get into, but once you were in it was so much fun. Make sure you check out Fires Creek, only about 25 min away. There was so much to see, we will definitely be back.
