Our Happy Hytte

We love being in the middle of the action and plenty far away from the chaos! To the west we are a short drive to Tennessee and the Cherokee National Forrest.

Our happy hytte (cabin if you aren't a little bit Norwegian) is in Murphy, North Carolina It's just a stones throw away from activities in both Tennessee and Georgia. https://www.airbnb.com/h/ourhappyhytte

Welcome to our Happy Hytte in the North Carolina mountains! In Norway, where we have family, cabins are called hyttes (pronounced like hit-uh). W

e named our cabin to reflect both our heritage and the cozy cabin vibes for which the folks in Norway are known. Ideally situated in the southwestern corner of the state, to our south we are a stones throw from the areas of Blairsville and Blue Ridge, Georgia. Your activities itinerary can be as full as you can handle! We know that you want your trip to the mountains to be all about outdoor living, and we’ve got just the porch you’ve been searching for. Rock the day away on the front porch, relax on the side porch in the swing with a book, grill up dinner and eat inside or out, and then finish off the night around the campfire in our locally made Adirondack chairs. Our cabin is secluded without being isolated. We have a lovely view of our community pond (where you can watch the deer come by for a drink as the sun sets), and a whole acre for the kids to run around. We even have a hiking trail that begins just at the end of our drive. Couples and friends are welcome, of course! But, we are set up for the needs of families like ours, just in case. After years of traveling to the mountains with kids we know what families need! Our master suite is just that, a proper queen size bed and your own full bath. The kids have run of the bunk room with two bunks (four twin beds!) that we’ve decorated to make them feel adventurous and a hall bath they can share. We’ve even brought a pack n play in case you’ve got a really little one. The deck has gates at both ends so that your kids or your fur babies can have the run of the deck without being able to run off entirely. We have our own porch dawg, and are happy to welcome yours. The kitchen is fully stocked, and not from 32 different yard sales! Cook, bake, or heat up leftovers from the pizzeria down the road (it’s pretty legit!) The road to the hytte is nicely paved, no gravel until you get to the driveway and no crazy hills to slide down while you try and find us in the dark. We even put up twinkle lights on the porch so you’ll know you’ve made it!

This is a cozy two bedroom two bathroom traditional log cabin. The master suite has a queen sized Casper mattress & private bath. The second bedroom has two bunks, four twin beds for your kids or friends. We provide a nicely sized kitchen and dining area with basic spices, oil, salt and pepper, coffee, tea, creamer, honey and all the items you need to cook during your stay. The living room has quality leather sofas perfect for napping or watching a DVD or streaming with the Roku on a rainy day. The wrap around porch offers rockers, a swing, a hot tub and outdoor dining. Just a few steps down is the fire-pit in the side yard.
We are in a log cabin in a small neighborhood of other cabins, but you will feel like you’re completely isolated because we don’t have adjacent neighbors. 🙂 oh, AND we have a hiking trail at the end of the driveway. How many rentals have that amenity?!

This is such a great family day trip and a fantastic photo opportunity! If you can’t do the hike there is a bus to take you to the top. Hooray for opening day!

OPENING DAY is March 28, 2024! Brasstown Bald will be open with services (including shuttle service to the summit, modern restrooms, museum, and theatre) beginning March 28th.
Our hours of operation with services are 10AM to 5PM. During the month of April, we will be open 5 days a week -- Closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. By mid-May, we will be open 7 days a week.

🥾 ‼️ PLEASE NOTE:
Hikers are always welcome on the site (even after dark or before sunrise). Folks visiting the site outside of our normal hours of operation may pay cash at the self-service fee tube (green metal box) located next to the ticket booth at the site entrance.

Day-use fees for use of the site outside of normal hours of operation are $5 per adult, and children under 16 are free.

There is little to no artificial light present on the site during the hours of darkness -- please bring flashlights for your own safety.
The summit trail (no lighting) may be used to access the outdoor observation deck at the summit of the mountain.

May astronomers prefer to view the night sky from our large parking lot because of the difficulty in hiking to the summit in the dark -- and more town/city lights are visible from the summit --- the night sky is framed by a ring of trees from the parking lot.

For any questions, please contact us at: [email protected]

Bigfoot got a couple of letters last month! Nora and Conley wanted to know if he had a family. Bigfoot seems to be in the market for a wife! Pass it on if you know any lady Sasquatch…

Haha! We keep this mix on hand at the Hytte for our guests in case they don’t have time to hit the store on the way. So, I already know where the pancake parties are!

I just don’t know what she’s doing with that tuna can… maybe she should stay in a cabin instead. We supply a first aid kit, a properly stocked kitchen and even water that comes fresh from a well. Plus it’s super cozy! Follow me for more non-camping tips!

We pulled the trigger and bought a hot tub! It’ll be arriving mid-February just in time for your winter get away!
