Magnificent Stay
Would give 10 stars if I could. Clean, thoughtful accommodations, convenient, reasonably priced. Not one bad thing to say. Listening to the creek and waterwheel was just the relaxing reset we needed.

Birthday Get Away
I found this very relaxing cabin when searching for a house to stay for my husbands birthday. We enjoyed the peacefully area and the waterwheel was fun to see and listen to. Access was very easy and the cabin was clean and welcoming with all of the essentials. Local restaurants and grocery stores were within 30 minutes.

Summer visit
We visited our son, who odds working at a local summer camp. This was a lovely base for our exploration of the area. The host was very prompt in communication and had many special tickets throughout the house. The creek, waterwheel, and landscaping around the property were wonderful.

Anniversary getaway
We absolutely love this beautiful setting with the waterwheel & the flowing stream. And we enjoy the fire pit on cool evenings. This was our third stay & James and Melissa are such hospitable hosts and even paid us a visit. They are quick to respond if there's a need. The cabin is always so clean with everything you can need provided.

peaceful
this was hands down the best VRBO we have ever stayed at. the cabin was beautiful, the sound of the water wheel combined with the very comfortable beds provided the best sleep ever. The fact that it was pet friendly made it even sweeter. It is difficult to find such an incredible property that allows 3 dogs without outrageous fees. The kitchen was very well stocked with everything we needed. The fireplace was awesome. The area was great and the hosts provide an extensive book of things to do. The crazy thing is we had another property booked but the host canceled because of a chimney fire. So we found the best place ever by accident and at the last minute. We are already planning on next year!!

Lovely weekend getaway
Our family stayed in the waterwheel cabin the weekend of Campbell Folk School's Fall Festival. It was two parents, a teen, a preteen, and our family dog. The cabin was cozy and clean and we had everything we needed for our stay. Communication was great. They even left us with firewood and a s'mores kit. It was a lovely weekend and we wish we could have stayed longer!

Hidden Gem
The best! Cabin and grounds are beautifully kept. Very clean and cozy. From the surprise Smores kit, to having been stocked with everything you would need for a perfect vacation! The ceiling fan on the top porch was fantastic for a cool breeze all day, even in high 90s temps! Couldn't ask for a better weekend getaway! The whole family enjoyed it very much and will definitely recommend to everyone who is needing to decompress from the daily grind of life!

Cutest Cabin in the Woods
We loved our stay there, we wanted something small and away from everything. This is tucked away in the hills, right beside a creek and the water wheel is amazing to fall asleep to. The town of Murphy has all the small town charm, several restaurants to choose from and the cutest shops, a little something for everyone. My family highly recommends this cabin for a relaxing getaway, we will visit again!!
