Great cabin in close proximity to Murphy. Ad/pictures were accurate with the cabin in great condition. Communication with contact was timely and proficient. Would definitely stay here again.
Host was great with communication! We were able to have a late checkout which was very helpful for our group. The river is absolutely gorgeous The pictures do it no justice. Beautiful location beautiful property beautiful home. Plenty of space inside great fireplace. Comfortable beds. Amazing showers. Plenty of space in the kitchen for everyone. Would definitely book this cabin again. We would love to come back for a summer trip.
The cabin was very Cozy and it felt tucked away at the end of a country road with a lake in the back. What more could you ask for? The kitchen and bathroom were up to date and clean. We love the solid wood everywhere. The screened in back deck was a plus. We enjoyed sitting out there and having our breakfast. The host was gracious enough to extend our checkout time, so we got to sleep in late our last morning.
Beautiful cabin and property! Convenient location!
We enjoyed this property very much! It was spacious, well furnished, beds were comfy, location was excellent, and the owner was very helpful and communicated well. Highly recommend!
We loved everything about the cabin! The kids and dogs loved the river. We liked that they had a ladder to get out of the river. Easy drive to town. House was clean…host was very good about communicating and gave lots of advice:) we were just sad that we didn’t catch any fish. 10/10;)
We had a great weekend stay the this location for a family get-away. Beautiful home on a very private river front lot. Nice flat level location with fire pit to enjoy overlooking the Nottely River. We will definitely be back!
The property was very clean and had everything we needed for a wonderful fall break. Brent is a great host. We hope to visit again! Thank you for sharing your place with us!
Beautiful cabin inside and out! It is in every sense of the word "a true cabin". The decor was beautiful and the layout was spacious and comfortable. The views from the windows and back deck area was spectacular. The cabin is also in a very very quiet area. Only sound was from the creek running behind the cabin. The yard is also a really fun place to hang out with the lights and firepit.
We enjoyed our time in the cabin very much. It was spacious and felt very comfortable from when we first walked in. Plenty of linens, dishes, and cooking utensils and machines. The yard was gorgeous with the trees and the river flowing behind the house. The owner was very easy to get in touch with and responded to anything we needed. We would stay again in the future.
Usually in most cases the pic's of a cabin aren't what u get once you get inside. This time was different, the cabin was far better than the pics themselves. This cabin couldn't be more highly recommended!!

Beautiful Cabin
The cabin was exactly as described and by far absolutely peaceful and secluded. Brent went above and beyond to answer any questions that we had. This one one of the most restful vacations we have had in a while. You wanted for nothing at this cabin. The cabin was a dream cabin. The back deck with the river was so amazing. I can’t even begin to say how perfect everything was. Will be coming back!

Highly recommend!
What a beautiful and clean cabin!! Everything we needed was provided. The water was beautiful and easy to fish in. The contact before and during was so easy and perfect. We definitely want to rent here again. It was close to everything we needed to do. But yet nice and private.We drove from Atlanta and it was a very easy drive and location. We stayed with our 4 adult children. They loved it as well. Our other family had a huge house about 15 min away, and they complained about their house had so many things not working. OUR house had everything WORKING! The puzzles and games were fun, they chairs for the fire pit for everyone in our group.The beds were so comfy and the master shower is epic! Kitchen stocked with basics we needed to cook. FYI if you need a wedding venue, Payne Meadows is located 7 minutes away and it was just beautiful.
This little cabin is quite cozy. We have a very close family so it was a great time for all of us! The screened in porch was great, it allows y’all to spread out if necessary. The only negative thing is that you can here everything that goes on upstairs so please be a where of this when booking with a lot of people! Also, the drive in is a little iffy if y’all have a car. We brought our truck so we where fine.
Over all it was a good time at a cute little cabin!

Michelle, we had a lot of rain and it caused some washout on the road in before you get to my property. The homeowners work hard to keep it in good shape and have someone coming out to smooth out the sections that were damaged. The noise is a result of it being a wooden interior throughout. We placed rugs upstairs to muffle some of the noise and even foam insulated the 1st-floor ceiling/second story floor during construction to minimize it.
This is a very nice cabin with nice furnishings and comfortable beds, newer appliances, granite countertops. Roomy kitchen with island. The outside space is great, lots of room to play and flat ground. The river is right behind the property. There is a primary suite with a king bed and large bathroom and closet on the main floor. There is another bedroom on the main floor with a queen bed and a full hall bath. Upstairs are two bunk rooms (one sleeps four and one sleeps two) that share a Jack-and-Jill full bath. Feels very secluded but is actually quite close to town. We would love to stay here again.

Wow! We booked this beautiful property as it was on a river and looked very peaceful, which is what we were looking for. Boy, was I right. This property is located on a private drive away from the hustle of everyday life and on the Nottely River. The house is beautiful and well taken care of and well stocked with dishes and linens. The bed in the master suite was comfortable and has a master bath with a large two person shower. The house is very spacious and open. There is a firepit outside and we made smores. Bring some firewood with you. There is a gas grill available, we did not use it. Be aware there are many stairs to enter the property, but its great exercise. It's a 30 minute drive to Blue Ridge, GA and a short drive to downtown Murphy. Brent, our host, was very easy to communicate with and also has many recommendations for things to do in the area. He was quick to respond to any questions or concerns. Would definitely stay there again. Can't wait to come back as we didn't want to leave.

Lovely Home and Outdoor Space on the River
Our whole family loved staying at this property. We've rented many houses over the years and agreed this is one of the best. It was exactly as pictured and very spacious. The house is private, so there aren't neighbors right next door, but it's still close town and stores, so you're not isolated. The house was very clean, the beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was well-stocked. The river was a great feature. There is a dam in Tennessee, and the TNA releases water at varying times each day. As a result, the water speed, depth, and color are continually changing. There isn't anything built on the property on the other side of the river, so it's a gorgeous spot. We had one rainy night and the whole family enjoyed sitting on the screened-in porch and listening to the storm. In terms of the house, on the first floor, there is an en suite bedroom with a TV and a huge shower, a second bedroom with a TV, and another bathroom. Upstairs, there are two large bedrooms that are connected by a bathroom. Our family of five had more than enough space. The homeowner was very attentive. Before our trip, he reached out with great information about the house and area. He texted a couple of days after our arrival to see if there was anything we needed.I wanted to mention a few of the things we enjoyed while staying at the house. We went to the Swan Drive-In theater in Blue Ridge, Georgia (30 minutes away). Drive-in theaters are so much fun and this one was well-run and in a beautiful area. We visited the charming town of Murphy, NC, and loved it. It had lots of unique shops and friendly people. We went to the flea market in Murphy on Sunday and had fun ... it was huge! We went to the Smoky Mountains National Park (2 hours away). We visited Lookout Mountain Civil War battlefield in Tennessee (2 hours away). I'll add that if you're new to Evolve, this is our fourth time renting with them and they've been excellent. We even had to cancel once and it was painless, which I appreciated.

Mountain Cabin
We loved the location. We wanted a cabin near the river with a flat yard for 4 young boys to run and play. We wanted a place 2 hours from Atlanta. We wanted a vacation to sleep 10. This cabin had it all.
The only issue was the red bunkbed upstairs. We weren’t able to use the top bunk due to it’s rickety wobbling. It was unusable.
We enjoyed our stay and we are grateful for the option.

Hi Jody, thanks for taking the time to leave this review! After going over your feedback with the homeowner, they wanted to share the following: "Thank you for your review and for letting me know about the bunk bed in the fourth bedroom upstairs. I will address it immediately. I'm happy to hear you enjoyed your stay and I apologize for the inconvenience the bed may have caused you and your family. We work hard to keep everything in great shape for our guests. We hope to see you and your family again!"
I would highly recommend this cabin to anyone it was beautiful comfortable and the host was very accommodating and even even understanding when I messed up and thought our checkout date was A-day later than what it was we were late checking out and they were very understanding
