Perfect Weekend Getaway
The Pando Cabin was so cozy and charming. We loved every detail from the big back porch, interior design(great attention to every detail), and fenced in yard for our dog. It was the perfect set-up for a dog. The location was off the beaten path, but not too far from town. We enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend.

Beautiful vacation home
This was our first family vacation and this spot was perfect for our young family. Our dog enjoyed playing in the yard and going for walks in the area. The hot tub was a great space to unwind at the end of the day. We were very pleased with the space.

Great stay at Pando Cabin!
Loved the cabin and its location! The cabin is beautiful and cozy. It is located only 10 minutes from downtown Murphy, but it is absolutely quiet and relaxing. The owners are dog friendly, which I very much appreciated. It took my dog a day or so to get used to the yard being on a hill, but he did. I very much hope to stay there again in the future!!

The location was amazing, it’s just what the wife and I needed for our busy life style. It was close enough for us to travel and walk the caverns in the mountains and hike, and the hot tub was perfect to relax the muscles when we were done, it was quiet and comfortable. We look forward to renting again to bring our children with us.

Very clean and nice
The home is really set up nicely with everything you could need and more. I was especially surprised by the dog blankets available to use on the sofas. A really nice touch. The back yard is a little steep but it is fenced in so if you have a medium or bigger dog it will work just fine. A very small dog (like mine) could easily get through the fence but it really wasn’t an issue for us. Was super cool to see the turkeys walking up the street and along the side yard. Overall we were very pleased and would definitely stay again

Would definitely return!
Great place to stay - the bedrooms and bathrooms were very roomy. The owners had everything there that we needed to feel comfortable. The deck was great too. My only complaint is that a tree had fallen in the fence and created a large hole, so we couldn’t leave the dogs unattended in the yard, and the yard had a steep slope to it. Hopefully they will fix the fence soon. Otherwise, it was a great stay and I have already recommended it to several friends. It’s also close to town - about 10 minutes.

Perfect location!
The property was spotless and so welcoming. The decor and amenities were more than I expected. The contact was Lisa who was the cleaning person and let me say she was excellent! She even helped us find a marina to rent a boat for the day and the marina was amazing! Big thanks to Lisa! The Evolve team was a bit overwhelming, so many emails but not as helpful as they thought they were.

Pando cabin
Loved the cabin and fenced in yard. The yard could use a good weed whacking, however. The dogs couldn’t really use it the way it is. It was nice being able to let them out knowing that it was fenced, though. The porch needed to be cleaned off, but it’s very nice to be able to sit out there. A little tricky finding it the first time, but then it’s fine. 10 minutes from town. The picture is a little deceiving, as it seems as though there is flat land behind the cabin, but this is not the case.
