A fantastic getaway is just waiting to be had at this expansive lakefront home perfect for the whole family to enjoy! As soon as you arrive, you will be greeted by the classic cabin exterior, yet once you step inside, you will realize this getaway is anything but quaint. The front door opens to a pleasantly open layout boasting soaring exposed ceilings, a stone fireplace to cozy up beside, comfortable furnishings, and a fully equipped kitchen that will. make feeding the whole gang a breeze. Everyone will love gathering in the living room to watch a favorite show on the flatscreen TV or playing games at the dining table, yet you won't want to forget about the furnished wraparound deck either! Bring your morning cup of coffee or evening glass of wine out and breathe in the fresh air while you soak up the stunning views of the water. Come summer, the gas grill will come in handy to whip up some juicy burgers. Plus, the private dock will be the hub for fishing, launching a few kayaks, or swimming in crystal clear water. When it is time to settle in after a full day of adventure, two bedrooms await, one on each floor, and the loft can be just the place to read a book in peace. With so much fun just waiting to be had, what are you waiting for?

Beautiful cabin on a lake

This cabin is nice with four bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. It has 3 levels so everyone has privacy. Perfect for 4 couples. The hanging swing on deck and hammock near water was extremely relaxing.

Beautiful Quite Retreat for the Family

We had a great time relaxing at this wonderful log home in a private setting on the lake. Great place to unwind , unplug, and enjoy the company of family without distractions. Great little town near by with plenty of great places to eat. We will definitely be back!

Mixed Reaction

Would rate 4 out of 5 for the amount of space, size of rooms and comfort of rooms for a group of 7. Kayaks, paddle boat, etc. and added bonus but if life jackets are needed, you’ll need to supply your own. Cleaning staff needs to be more aware of areas that need attention. As indicated in previous posts, dead bugs seem to be a recurring theme. Fan/light fixture in upstairs bath, under couch in loft area, in corner by grandfather clock. During our stay, we kept silverware on counter as silverware storage was a dirty cardboard box. Comforter in upstairs bedroom dirty. Service alarm on hot water heater would go off and immediately shut off hot water. Would have to reset to regain the hot water. Lower level bathroom had box cutter blade holding the bathroom vent open and vent was not properly attached to ceiling. Some type of water leak going from furnace room to hot water heater closet. Judging by peeling paint and wet wood, this had been going on for some time. Plenty of plates, silverware, glasses, but only 5 bowls. Makes it difficulty for group of 7. Property management was notified and photos provided for water leak, dirty comforter and silverware storage on the 1st night of our stay. There was a issue with the oven door that received prompt attention from property management. Reported first night, maintenance on site the 2nd day (he also removed box cutter blade) and new stove/oven on the 3rd day. Very pleased with this response but no response on any other issues.

Murphy Lake House

Great place to get away from it all. The kids and our dog had a lot of fun running around outside and playing around the dock area. The house is nice. Good amenities and we didn't have any issues that needed attention. I love how peaceful the area is. Would have rated it 5 stars if someone had done a pre arrival run through and cleaned up all of the dead bugs.

Lovely home with beautiful lake view

The home is spacious and well kept - 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms. You will have access to the lake via a private pier, as well as to paddle boards, a paddle boat and a canoe. The kitchen is fully stocked, and you will be provided with plenty of linens, paper towels, garbage bags, etc. Really nice house!
