Murphy, North Carolina
Welcome to our Happy Hytte in the North Carolina mountains! In Norway, where we have family, cabins are called hyttes (pronounced like hit-uh). We named our cabin to reflect both our heritage & the cozy cabin vibes for which the folks in Norway are known. Ideally situated in the southwestern corner of the state, to our south we are a stones throw from the areas of Blairsville & Blue Ridge, Georgia. To the west we are a short drive to Tennessee & the Cherokee National Forrest. Your activities itinerary can be as full as you can handle!
We know that you want your trip to the mountains to be all about outdoor living, and we’ve got just the porch you’ve been searching for. Rock the day away on the front porch, relax on the side porch in the swing with a book, grill up dinner and eat inside or out, and then finish off the night around the campfire in our locally made Adirondack chairs or a soak in the hot tub. Our cabin is secluded without being isolated. You will lose cell coverage but our high speed internet will keep you connected! We have a lovely view of our community pond (where you can watch the deer come by for a drink as the sun sets), and a whole acre for the kids to run around. We even have a hiking trail that begins just at the end of our drive.
Couples and friends are welcome, of course! But, we are set up for the needs of families like ours, just in case. After years of traveling to the mountains with kids we know what families need! Our primary suite is just right, with a Casper mattress in a proper queen size bed and your own en suite bath. The kids have run of the bunk room with two bunks (four twin beds!) that we’ve decorated to make them feel adventurous and a hall bath they can share. We’ve even brought a pack n play in case you’ve got a really little one. The deck has gates at both ends so that your kids or your pups can have the run of the deck without being able to run off entirely. We have our own porch dawg, and are happy to welcome yours without charging a pet fee.
The kitchen is fully stocked, and not from 32 different yard sales! Cook, bake, or heat up leftovers from the pizzeria down the road (it’s pretty legit!) The road to the hytte is nicely paved, no gravel until you get to the driveway and no crazy hills to slide down while you try and find us in the dark. We even put up twinkle lights on the porch so you’ll know you’ve made it! Velkommen hjem!
Cabin was very nice and had everything we needed. Only disappointment was we didn't see any deer. I took the walk on the trail from one end to the other , it was very interesting. We went to the casino one day , not much luck there. All and all it was a good vacation. Thank you Van & James
Enjoyed the property!
I would like to thank the host for providing all the information needed from day one. The cabin is beautiful and looks like new. Everything you think you might need, it is there. My kids love the games and the setting in general. The cabin is close to main road that goes to Murphy and also to the border with Tennessee. Amazing memories we lived as a family. Thank you for letting us stay in your home.
If you left home and forgot anything, you wouldn't have to look far in this cabin to find it probably. My house isn't even that well stocked in spices, there are extra toothbrushes/paste just in case, makeup wipes and separate towels.. everything. All the good movies.. everything you might need while you're there is there. We had a perfect peaceful and lazy weekend. There was a wine bottle and glasses waiting for us and a different book on each of the bunk beds. We had our 4 year old with us and chose different bunk beds, and we slept in the kid's room while we were visiting. It really was perfect. Thank you for the wonderful little place to get away for the weekend!
Thanks for letting us stay at your wonderful Hytte! Our family enjoyed every minute of the stay and everything was perfect. We walked the trail and enjoyed the surroundings as well. We are looking forward to booking it again some time soon!
This vacation was a birthday getaway. The cabin was great, comfortable and had everything possible. There was a little bit of noise from the road close to the property but not awful! I would rent this location again.
Our family rented this cozy cabin for a weekend. It was perfect! My kids picked this one because they were excited about the deck swing and sleeping in the bunk beds. The family that owns it was always very prompt to answer any questions and very helpful. I appreciated how they decorated the cabin. They made it warm and inviting without overdoing it on decor. The bunk room had books, toys and movies for kids so you don’t need to bring anything like that. Our old dog and our 4yr old made it around the trail that is at the end of the driveway though there is a steep hill that might be tough for someone elderly. The kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans for cooking. And the cabin was super easy to access so you don’t need 4WD. We would love to come back in the warmer months to enjoy the deck more especially since they have such a great view of the pond. Thanks for letting us stay at your cabin! We made some wonderful family memories.
We had the absolute best time at this beautiful cabin! We had our almost 2 year old daughter and chocolate lab with us! They so enjoyed it too! Van and James were incredibly accommodating and there were so many special little added touches in the cabin! Everything was very clean! Our daughter loved the toys and book collection! Our dog enjoyed running around outside the cabin! It was a short 15 min drive to town and 30 min to Blue Ridge! Perfect! We saw lots of deer outside of the cabin! It was a lovely stay and I highly recommend it! You won’t regret it! Thanks so much Van and James!
The Hytte was just as shown. It was cozy, comfortable and relaxing. Kitchen was fully stocked and I loved the extras provided like pantry staples and toys for kids. The point of our trip was rest and relaxation and we received both. We hope to stop again in the future.
We had such a relaxing weekend at this place. It was so clean, cozy, and easy to get to. I didn’t have kids there but it would be perfect for a small family. I’ll be back for sure!
Wonderful experience, so much nature around a perfectly apportioned cabin. Just what we needed. Thank you Van!
