Murphy, North Carolina
Sleepy Hollow Lakefront & Mountain Cabin Retreat is a beautiful custom-built vacation rental home on Lake Hiwassee in the Bear Paw Community of Murphy, NC. Our family has planned and worked hard for 10 years to make this a dream come true for our family and yours to have comfort and luxury like nowhere else in the community.
The views are breath-taking from every room! When you walk in the front door, you will wonder if you are in a luxury resort or a treehouse. The entire floor has windows with views of the woods, the mountains and best of all, right down the main channel of the lake. Unlike many other rentals on Lake Hiwassee our property has water year round. So bring your boat no matter what time of year. This homes main level is an open floor plan concept for entertaining and congregating for plenty of room for larger groups. The chef kitchen has all high-end appliances with a huge island for prep, seating and entertaining. The dining room table seats 10. The great room has large comfy sofas, club chairs and has a game table and chairs. The fireplace is a real wood burning Rumford style fireplace that warms the whole room! The lake views from here are amazing. The water is so close you feel like you can touch it.
The house sleeps 10 in beds. There are 3 master en suites on the upper level with lake views from every room. The master suite has a full length covered porch, king bed, sitting area, and full bath with shower. The second suite has a small covered porch, queen bed, and full bath with shower. The third suite has lake views, queen bed and full bath with tub/shower combo. On the lower level the fourth bedroom has a full bed and 2 twin beds and adjacent full bath with tub/shower combo.
The upper level also has a coffee bar! In the morning you can make your tea or coffee and enjoy the morning sun rising behind the house on to the lake with the babbling creek next door for the perfect Ahhhhhh morning. There is also a beverage cooler when you are ready to wind down in the evening and enjoy the sunset behind the house onto the lake from the master deck. We call this Heaven.
The lower level is the recreation area. There is a full length covered deck, ping pong table, theater room with several hundred DVD movie options, kitchen area with full size refrigerator, as well as another bedroom with a full size bed and set of bunk beds. There is also full bath located on this level as well. You also have easy access to the lake and private dock just a few steps away with diving board, kayak and chairs waiting for you.
Sleepy Hollow Mountain Lake Retreat is the perfect vacation! Whether you need a couples getaway, a family reunion, gather your friends with kids, just the girls or just the guys, or a business retreat, we have everything for your comfort including WiFi and satellite TV. WiFI is spotty being in a rural setting, please know this upfront. This is a place to get away for technology, and relax. Internet is not a guarantee since the property is located in a rural internet service area. Text, Phone and Internet is limited. Please advise in consideration of the property rental.
In 2020 we added a table top fire-pit to the main-level deck, and an outdoor fire-pit area on the lower section of the walkway going down to the lake. More to enjoy on the outside!
