Micro fishing trip

We arrived to a quite subdivision with a gated entrance. This is the type of place where everybody waves at you, which is a pleasant change from our home in the northeast. Driveway was a bit long but not an issue as others have said. Beds were comfortable after a 15 hour drive. Hope to book this place again as im a creature of habit

Holiday Overflow

We live in the neighborhood and needed one of the rentals for extended family during the Christmas holiday. We knew about Rustic Retreat and chose it. It met our expectations and the owner was easy to work with.

Dirty cabin

The cabin was filthy. The loft bed sheets were stained and had to be washed before sleeping. The closet shelves in the main level were full of dirty sheets and blankets. The thermostat was set on 70 degrees cold and we couldn’t change it. We called for a code that it asked for, but we got no help. The couches were stinky and dirty. Oven was dirty and greasy. Laundry door was falling off. Awful.

Golden

The advertisement of upscale is correct. The neighborhood is lovely with safe, paved asphalt road for the inclines. The property has nice furnishings. There are multiple comfortable seating areas with a tree/mountain view for conversation, reading or solitude. I especially loved the upstairs loft. Beautiful wood walls and floors. Lovely golden light coming in every morning and sunset. Enjoy

Great cabin in a great location!

We had a great stay, and would highly recommend. Mark was great, and handled an unexpected problem quickly. The beds were comfortable, the cabin was very clean, and the kitchen had everything we needed for 7 adults to cook all of our meals. There was an incredible amount of deer and turkey in the community, which made the drive up to the cabin interesting. Our GPS took us up on top of the mountain, which had a difficult turn or two, but we found a much better way in on a lower road. The next time we come to Murphy, this cabin will be our first choice!

A Wonderful Stay

We were a family of 6. The cabin is beautiful and cozy. It is well equipped with all the essentials and remarkably clean. Everyone commented that their beds were comfortable and they slept well. We cooked all of our meals, including Thanksgiving and had everything we needed. Lots of space in all of the rooms. Loved the wrap around porch area too. It is very peaceful up there. We would love to return again.

A Welcome I’ll Never Forget

A big thank you to the owner Mark for working with a stranded couple from Florida during the peak of fall season with no room available at any inn nearby. What a beautiful cabin to welcome some weary travelers. The view from the upstairs master took my breath away every morning at sunrise. Everything was simply wonderful!

Access

Overall, our stay was wonderful because we love riding all the magnificent roads in the area! Specifically, there were a lot of light bulbs out, underwear found under a couch cushion and the requested duties to do before checkout were a bit excessive ( make the beds?) Also , when asked if the cabin was motorcycle accessible I was told the “community is gated and paved” but nothing was said about the tight hairpin curves ! We did fine due to our experience but it is not motorcycle accessible! Overall, great place to say if u r staying put for a few days lol but going in and out is tough!

Wonderful Fall Getaway

What a pleasant stay. We are 3 couples who used the cabin to explore the area and loved the comfortable beds. There was plenty of space to sit around and socialize, both inside and out. There are plenty of small towns in the area with wineries, shopping, and outdoor activities. The kitchen was well stocked and allowed us to have breakfast and dinner most days. Mark was very helpful and available by text.

About the host

Hosted by Mark Spicer

Host profile image
After purchasing our first cabin (VRBO 76071) in 2004 and having great success, we decided to purchase this property. We now live in the Cumming, GA area and aren't able to get to West Jefferson as often, so we chose Murphy, NC for our second rental.

Why they chose this property

"Rustic Retreat Too" has wonderful mountain views and is near so many outdoor activities

What makes this property unique

Location (near Blairsville, GA to the South and Murphy, NC to the north), paved roads, layout
