About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

River Haven, your escape to the Mountains on the Nottely River.

River Haven is a two bedroom, two bath cabin located directly on the Nottely River in Murphy North Carolina. From the screened in porch you look out over the clear flowing river. The riverside patio is a great place to enjoy the firepit when not fishing, tubing, kayaking, hiking, or exploring Murphy and the amazing river walk. Nottely River Winery is only about 6 miles away, and it's beautiful. And lets not forget the Harrah's Cherokee Valley River Casino just 12 miles away.

So you can relax at the cabin and do nothing at all, or do as much as you can if relaxing is not the only thing on the agenda. The Ranger Community Center has a kayak/canoe launch so from there a really nice float down to our place. When the water is low, about a 1.5 hour float, to as fast as 30 minutes if the water is flowing strong.

Fishing from our bank is fun, and wade fishing even more so. We are at the end of the road so very peaceful and quiet. It seems like you are a million miles away from anything, yet downtown Murphy is nearby along with great restaurants and shopping.

Disclaimer, VRBO shows in the map area that we are a one minute walk to a lake, we are not. I think they might mean if you are downtown. And the Hiawassee River is not 40 minutes away but maybe 15 minutes or so.

Great Memories
This place has it all if you want a true Western North Carolina experience. Kayak right out the back with the provided Kayaks. Teenage girls had a blast and the home cooked meals were the best. Definitely recommend staying here. Thank you for the lifelong memories.

Spectacular view
The home was very clean and the view was spectacular. The only two complaints were all of the beds were old (need to be replaced) and the other is they have well water which smelt of sulfure and was not pleasant.

Another great stay.
Was our second time vusiting. Was again a nice and quiet getaway. Will definitely be back again. River was nice and cold for a dip in at the bank. Plus fire pit came in handy for smoking up some local trout.

Family Fly Fishing Trip
Beautiful place on the River to stay. Drive on the road to the house was easy, not scary like some others. Purpose of our stay was for our boys (10,14 and 15 yrs. old) was to fish. Unfortunately, it rained during our stay which stirred up the water and made the fish not want to bite. We did catch two lady fish, one catfish and there were lots of mud skippers (caught by net) though, so it was enough that our boys enjoyed.

Get away from the city.
Was a great location to get away. It was nice and quiet. Kids loved fishing in the river, was a bit too cold to take out the kayaks. All in all will try to come back in the summertime. Communication with Le Ann was great from check in. Just a heads up cell service was kinda in and out but didnt mind at all.

Perfect spot on the River!
This house has a great a location. Tucked away on a quiet, peaceful river yet still close to town. We fished for trout and had an amazing time kayaking. We put in at the Ranger Community center launch and paddled back to the house. We would love to visit in the future. The property was very clean and had everything we needed. Thanks for the wonderful stay!

This home is very nicely decorated with all the necessary comforts. Kitchen is well-equipped. Wonderful location on the river. We enjoyed the kayaks and loved sitting by the fire pit at night. Saw blue herons, ospreys, Canadian geese, kingfishers, deer.
