    We have stayed at the Riverhouse on the Hiwassee three times and it is always perfect. There is plenty of space for our entire family to spread out, furnishings and amenities are well thought out and in good condition, and the setting cannot be beat. It is close to Murphy but it feels like it could in another world. There is nothing like sitting on the porch with a good book and watching the river roll past. We will definitely return.

    Very beautiful home but I didn’t like that there’s no blinds in most of the windows.

    We stayed here for our anniversary. It was a perfect spot for us. The kitchen is stocked well. The bed was very comfortable. The outside sitting spots were great. We would definitely stay here again. Quiet spot to relax.

    Second trip to Murphy and had a great time again! The location is super convenient to town and river sound was calming and serene. House had everything we needed and experienced no issues during our stay.

    There are a lot of spider webs covering the decks no one is taking care of the outside of the property properly. The inside had cobwebs too. Lots of spiders.

    We enjoyed our stay at the property in Murphy, NC. The home was beautifully decorated and well stocked. The layout worked well for our family. Look forward to staying again in the future.

    If you are looking for a great place close to town but far enough for privacy with river access then this is it. Very beautiful place, well stocked with great views of the river. Communication with owners was great. We will stay again when coming back to Murphy area.

    The house is beautiful and exactly as represented. Easy access to the house through the back gate of community, and only 5-10 minutes into Murphy for shopping, supplies, etc. Family trip with 5 of us easily stayed at the river house. Beds were incredibly comfortable, and all the basic amenities were supplies in the bathrooms. We loved that each bedroom had a king bed. Kitchen had everything you need for cooking meals. Access to the river was fairly easy and only a few steps out the back door. Fishing was a bust as this section of the river is very shallow during June. If you fly fish, you might be able to catch some trout. You can actually wade completely across this river (~50 yards). Kids had a blast wading and playing in the river as the current is not too strong in this area. Grab some floats and sit out in the river...so peaceful!! The only thing I would recommend is some steps be built down to the river's edge. It is a steep incline for anyone not agile enough to make it. Highly recommend Fires Creek Recreation area which is close by for swimming and hiking. If you want a super fun drive, take the time for Cherohala Parkway. We would love to stay here again!
