We loved our time at Scott's place in Murphy. Such a beautiful home with a wonderful view. We spent literally hours playing in the pool. We would love to return again next year.
Had a blast at this property. Pool was awesome! The deer were plentiful & beautiful in this area. We had a wonderful time & would recommend this property. The owner answered all my questions in a timely manner prior to our visit so our check-in was smooth.
Great mountain property with beautiful views. Especially enjoyed the large porch area with swing and rocking chairs. Host was very accommodating and I would highly recommend the property.
My husband and I really enjoyed our weeklong stay at "Catus Cabin". The overall views and sunsets are truly amazing! The home is very nice! We grilled, swam in the private pool, hung out by the firepit, saw so much wildife, and just chilled. It was perfect! We also went into downtown Murphy, NC for some local eats and shopping. Nice place to visit!!
I can’t say enough how much we enjoyed our week at the Cactus Cabin!! Everything from the house, to the view, to the town was perfect for our getaway. We had 6 adults and 2 tweens and the house met our needs perfectly. Thank you for a great stay!! We will be back!
A great family vacation, with my son's and their families. Grandkids 4-ages 3-13 had a great time making memories in the pool, watching sunsets, counting deer, making s'mores and fishing locally. Will be back! Took off a star for wasps around poolstarwap
We loved the views! Scott was so easy to work with and answered all my questions quickly! We missed getting to use the pool but plan on staying here again! Very spacious and the porches and outdoor eating was enjoyable!
My mom, baby Bella (mini Aussiedoodle), and I had a fantastic experience! The owner was communicative and the house had everything we needed. Being close to downtown Murphy while still enjoying some seclusion was the perfect balance. We definitely plan on coming back!
This is a very peaceful and comfortable place to stay. We enjoyed the heated pool, fire pit and having our morning coffee out on the deck overlooking the lake. Lots of wildlife including a baby deer 20 feet from the porch. Communication with Scott was good. The outdoor furniture is outstanding and comfortable. We are already thinking about our next trip.

We enjoyed our stay. The deck was awesome and the views even better. Not far from town and the road wasn’t bad getting there. Loved the rocking chairs and swing on the deck. Had our meals utilizing the picnic table. The walk to the lake is a little hard for a couple of them that tried it, but we didn’t come for that. Master bedroom is very nice.
This was a wonderful place to stay with family. Our teens and nine year old loved it. We had plenty of room in the home to have alone time from one another and more than enough activities to do with eachother. The pool and hot tub was absolutely perfect we enjoyed soaking under the sunsets and stars every night. Our host was quick to respond and considerate of our needs. The kitchen was stocked well, we didn’t have to purchase any spices at all! We took a drive to the Tallullah Gorge State Park and Helen GA to explore since we were only about an hour away. We loved our stay!
Overall our stay was amazing although too short. The views were gorgeous and the house was huge. A few minor things that I didn’t worry about and we will definitely be booking again in the future!
Beautiful home, we had a great time. The kids loved the hot tub. We enjoyed the fireplace. This home is the friendliest and best stocked home we've ever rented. We loved it. Kudos to the owner!!
We had a great time here! Spent lots of time enjoying the pool! Had lots of fun with family. Enjoyed the restaurants and playing putt putt. Thank you for sharing your beautiful property!
