Murphy, North Carolina Vacation Rentals
Murphy is located in the northwest part of North Carolina, along the Hiwassee River. The town was named for local politician Archibald Murphey, who died in 1832 and was known as the ”Father of Education” in his state. If you’re interested in a vacation away from the big city, this is the place for you. Guests of Murphy vacation rentals will be excited about their close proximity to the Appalachian Mountains, where you can explore, hike, bike, horseback ride, and enjoy some great nature trails. Outdoor lovers staying at Murphy cabin rentals might like to hang out at nearby Hiwassee Lake (also called Hiwassee Reservoir)—while there, the whole family can canoe, boat, fish, and learn the basics of whitewater rafting. The water is on the cold side, even in the summer, so don’t bother trying to swim. Visitors to Murphy vacation homes during the winter holidays will undoubtedly love all the celebrations going on: there’s an Annual Christmas Tree-Lighting, a Hometown Christmas Celebration, and a “Light-Up Murphy for the Holidays.” And don’t miss the National Appalachian Jeep Jamboree which occurs just in time for the Fall foliage. Hungry? Head over to Murphy’s Chophouse, where you can find fresh seafood that flown in daily and USDA beef.
