Family-friendly holiday rentals in Chatuge Lake

Loved staying in the cabin. We really Enjoyed the outdoor deck area with the hammock, the hot tub and the fire pit!

Wow, what a beautiful Cabin. Our family of 4 w/pups really enjoyed ourselves. The home was well stocked, comfortable beds, well a loaded kitchen. Beautiful decks to enjoy the nature in comfort. The decor inside is fun! Now, the property! It's its own adventure. Great fishing, and a relaxing vibe. We saw several deer while visiting. We hope to make it back! Sean, and Deb are very knowledgeable, and quick to respond with any questions!

This cabin is SO cozy, quiet, peaceful and private! It was the perfect place for me to stay for my work trip (I'm a photographer), and the location was so wonderful. (: I sat on the porch to watch the storms roll by and to look at the beautiful mountains! Even saw some deer one morning; so special! I also really LOVED how big the driveway is. It's hard to turn around my truck (it's older and harder to see out of with my camper shell), but I had no problem at all turning around, which was a huge plus for me. The bed was super comfy, and I just had a super restful time! I'd love to stay here again at some point! 🥹🖤 Thank you Joni for such a great stay!

We would not hesitate to stay here again or recommend it to friends. I love that the place is very private. There was plenty of room for me and my husband and our four teenagers. It was close to Helen.

Best experience I've had with AirBnB. Michelle was friendly and polite. The cabin was exactly as described, clean and great for our weekend getaway. 5/5 would recommend.

Had a very peaceful few days in the shooting star lodge. Such a lovely place to relax and be surrounded in peace by nature. Very quiet and the cabin was extremely homely and we felt relaxed as soon as we walked in the door. Host was great with very clear instructions for arrival and on hand if we needed anything else. Recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful stay in this part of the smokies.

A wonderful place to stay near Helen, GA! Within 15-20 mins of all the downtown area. Laura was very responsive to our messages. Check in and out was a breeze! The place was exactly as described. We enjoyed the peacefulness found in sitting on the back porch enjoying the hot tub and propane fire pit. We loved our stay and would definitely stay with Laura again whenever we are back in Helen!

The accommodations were perfect for our visit to a local Women’s Retreat. The rooms are dark and perfect for sleeping and the rushing creek is right outside the door. Efficient for our plans and everything in working order.

Wanda’s place was exactly what my husband and I wanted for a quick getaway. The location was perfect for us! We went hiking, waterfall exploring and my husband got some fly fishing in. Even though the location is close to a main road it didn’t at all keep us from a goodnights rest that made us ready for the next day of exploring.

This is the fourth time we have rented the cabin. Three times were for five weeks each. We love it there and could not ask for a better host, very responsive to our needs. Each time we return there are new additions to the property, this time a lovely fire pit and stairs leading from upper parking lot to cabin. Very peaceful and quiet with a pond on the property. We look for the deer and turkeys on the road to the cabin.

AMAZING place to “get away!” Truly, one of the best places we’ve stayed. Super clean, easy in & out, and would definitely come back. (Only downside- no ice maker. We survived- lol.)

Wonderful time in this home, tons of space and close to everything downtown. Lovely location with a peaceful dock to sit out for coffee. Home was comfortable and everything was as described. Thanks again!

super helpful when we were trying to find it. host was worried gps would send us the wrong way and gave step by step directions. thankfully, our gps worked out fine because we came in from the opposite side of the mountain, but his directions were on point coming from the other side. beautiful view. nice and clean. within 20 min from most anything you could want to do.

This place was so peaceful and relaxing. We stayed on the dock or around the fire pit. Mornings were spent drinking coffee on the deck with the gorgeous lake views. Never even turned the TV on. The house was clean and well stocked. There’s lots to do in the area as well. Definitely will be back.

We totally enjoyed staying at Cast Away cabin. The river is very close and easy to get into. Sitting on the large deck and listening to the river is so relaxing. My husband commented on how comfortable the bed was. I would note that the air conditioning was not all that efficient but was acceptable. There was not a hair dryer, which I am pretty sure was mentioned as an accessory they had. For those who may be wondering, the coffee pot is regular ground kind and they have a small coffee bar there with coffee, sugar, etc. We just took our pod coffee maker but I thought the coffee bar was nice. The place is small, as is noted, but is well kept up and cutely decorated. I would recommend for a river getaway, especially if you have a dog who would enjoy the river as much as ours did.

We have been to this cabin for two years in a row for spring break and it’s a great spot! Very comfortable and quiet with plenty of room for everyone. Being right on the water its amazing to sit on the porch and have your coffee or dinner!

The gardens were incredible and the surrounding area was so beautiful I couldn't get over it. Mountains, creeks, horses, sheep, donkeys. Beautiful trees. Birds singing all the time. Ferns everywhere. Loved Richard and Raymond! Their taste is impeccable. They were kind and attentive. Would love to be their next door neighbor.

This cabin is fantastic and Joeseph and Lorena were great at communicating. I ended up proposing to my girlfriend at this cabin and they were accommodating to make everything perfect. There were so many thoughtful gestures like a personalized sign and have other cool things like deer feed and bird feed. The pictures of this cabin don’t do it justice! Views are amazing, clean, and all of the games you could ever want to play. The only thing I would note before you book is make sure you put the correct amount of people staying. Even though the cabin sleeps 8, I only reserved with 2 because I didn’t know how many were staying. There is a fee for anyone over your reserved amount. I ended up having 3 others stay for a total of 5 and still had to pay extra for them. Something to note. Everything was amazing and would recommend to anyone to stay here!

We come to Murphy all the time to visit family. We will definitely book again here if it’s available!

Place was great and peaceful

Amazing view, comfy beds, great location!! Secluded feel but the grocery store and much more is a short drive away. Honestly I could’ve sat on the back porch and looked at the mountains and river all day. The pool was a nice spot, well done little area. My daughter enjoyed the little playground. Happy we booked this place!

What a delightful place to stay. Plenty of room for the seven of us. It was great having the choice of playing ping pong, billiards, and such. Hiking was close by, and we were able to see multiple falls. So beautiful and peaceful.

My family and I enjoyed our stay. The views from the house are incredible. It is very peaceful. The place was clean. Nina was very helpful and responsive when needed. We used the pool and hot tub, which was a short walk down the driveway. I highly recommend this place if you’re visiting the area!

We were having our family Christmas get together and was so happy that the house was still beautifully decorated for Christmas. That made our gathering extra special! The house was perfect for our group!
