Gentle Ben's sits on nearly an acre of land surrounded by pine trees, with large open back yard with private hot tub, fire pit, and ample parking in the front.

Put your feet up on the ottoman, grab a book for the reading nook, and relax. You're here, settle in.
Enjoy the cool outdoors in the fall for a warm soak in the hot tub, or gazing at the stars. Then gather at the fire pit for s'mores.

Cozy & Quiet

A cute cabin tucked away in a quiet neighborhood, yet close to shopping. Even better, it was only a 9-minute drive to the John C. Campbell Folk School. Julie was quick to respond to our questions, and the cabin was beautifully equipped with everything we could possibly need.

The cabin is wonderful! Very, very clean, fully stocked kitchen, perfect location, easy to access, close to everything. The layout of the cabin is very cozy and homey feeling. The neighborhood is wonderful, quiet and absolutely loved all the wildlife - deer, baby deer - we saw. The hosts were easily accessed and had immediate responses and resolutions to any questions/issues we had. There wasn't anything we would suggest changing except for a fenced in area for the pups to play in. Regardless, we would definitely stay here again when coming back to Murphy.
