About this property

Breathtaking Mountain/Water Views/Private Pool/Hottub/4.4 miles to Casino

  • Renovated mountain property, overlooking the Hiawasse River, featuring a heated pool (closed seasonally, depending on rental requests as late as Oct). Up charge for heat, if needed. Recent 6 person Hottub. Amazing views from inside or outside, and several thousand square feet of concrete and trex decking makes this property a wonderful vacation setting. Sleeps a maximum of 10. Two sets of twin bunks are recommended for children. Tight for 10 adults.

    Centrally located within 1 mile of downtown Murphy, with multiple delicious restaurants, 4.4 miles to the recently built $200+M Harrah's Casino, and less than a 45 min drive to the Nantahala Gorge white water rafting center with zip lines. Fun for just about all ages.

We had such a wonderful time celebrating a birthday here with friends. The house is lovely and had plenty of space for everyone to spend time together comfortably. The highlight for us was definitely the outdoors—the mountain views are wonderful, and we spent most of our time enjoying the pool and hot tub. Definitely got lucky with some out-of-season warm, sunny weather.I also really appreciated the host's communication. Scott was responsive and helpful throughout the entire process, which made planning easy. It was a fantastic spot for a getaway, and we would love to come back!

Had a very relaxing week hanging by the pool enjoying the mountain view. Nice house with plenty of room and lots of windows to enjoy the scenery. My grandson loved seeing the deer that showed up every day! It's located on a dead end road, so it's very peaceful.

Best pool and lake view! So nice, we've come twice!

Our second visit and the view over the lake draws us in every time. Comfy deck furniture and lots of pool toys. Location convenient to groceries, restaurants and outdoor activities. Don't miss the donuts at Rare Bird Emporium.

Relaxing, Tranquil Getaway

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!!

Visiting the new grandbaby.

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.

Beautiful place with something for everyone. Great for large groups too. Close to the Casino if that is what you like. One mile from Downtown Murphy. Perfect location! Love the Pool and the Hot Tub. The covered pavilions is my favorite to avoid the sun. Deer in the yard everyday! Thanks Scott for letting us stay in your beautiful home again.
