Glamping at the Chapel—Wood-Fired Sauna Available | Cabin in Murphy
1 Bedroom Cabin in Upper Peachtree, Murphy
Secluded 48 acres in Murphy (about 16 minutes to downtown). Near: John C. Campbell Folk School (about 12 minutes away); Nantahala River (about 35 minutes away). Roam the property and swim in the spring-fed pond. If you are a camper or want to try "camping," then you will love "glamping" ("glamorous camping") at the chapel! A wood-fired sauna experience is available for an additional charge. (Read more about that below.)
My vision is that my property (which I've named "Kingdom Come") would be a place of rest, retreat, and enjoyment for others. I am going to build a few cabins for lodging, but my first major project was building a chapel, so that it would be the centerpiece and heartbeat: a place for reflection, meditation, and prayer.
I built the chapel myself (with my own hands, and the hands of a couple of friends). As I work on building the cabins, I have decided to use the chapel as a glamping site (better than using it as a "divine" storage building!).
My mother was an artist and when she died I ended up with a lot of her artwork. Some of her paintings now fill the chapel. They also fill the space, I hope, with her grace and love and creativity.
The chapel features beautiful timber frame construction. As to "glamping" . . . there is no running water/plumbing, but you'll have all the fresh water you need for showers, drinking, etc. Limited electricity for running the kitchen appliances.
No AC, of course, but the fan will keep it comfortable in warm weather. As to cold weather, the chapel has an electric heater that keeps it fairly comfortable in cold weather: not blazing hot, but comfortable; if it gets VERY cold, then the heater just takes the chill off.
Zinus Ultima Comfort Memory Foam 6 Inch mattresses are very comfortable! Using the outdoor solar/camp shower is wonderful. The privy is clean and well-ventilated.
Appliances: fan; toaster oven; microwave oven; coffee maker; and, small micro-fridge.
Lighting is provided by four rechargeable lanterns. Screens on the windows to keep the bugs at bay.
Outdoor deck with comfortable Adirondack chairs, fire pit, and Weber charcoal grill. There are generous firewood bundles available for you to purchase at the chapel, if you wish. Bring charcoal if you want to use the grill.
The play area offers opportunities limited only by your imagination. Sunbathing? Stargazing? Badminton and Bocce balls provided if you want to play!
WOOD-FIRED SAUNA
We also offer an experiential upgrade to your stay if you want to bask in a traditional Finnish wood-fired sauna complete with plunges into our cool pond between rounds. Please contact us and we will send you more details on the sauna rates. If you desire to book the sauna during your stay , we will light the fire and have it toasty hot for your sweat. We will gladly walk you through a traditional Finnish ritual and what to expect.

My home is located a short walk through the woods from the chapel, so I'm nearby if you need me. Come hang out on my front porch if you like! You are welcome to roam all 48 acres, swim in the spring fed pond, hike up to the crest of the mountains that surround the property . . . just make yourself at home! I'm a beekeeper and I'm happy to tell you about that, if we have the opportunity. Badminton equipment and Bocce balls provided if you want to play!
