Rick and Patty Lee Buy Their Murphy NC Home and Had a Great Experience

Posted by I Love Murphy on

As our time to search for a Murphy area home was very limited, we needed a real estate agent who would show us exactly what we were looking for, and spend as much time with us as necessary to get the job done.

Although we were shown homes by several other Realtors in the area, none compared with the dedication of John Poltrock. We were very fortunate to secure the services of John and his entire RE/MAX Team.

Subsequent to closing, John continues to provide valuable assistance in regards to various community resources, communicating with the previous owner to get us answer about specifics in our “New” home and, in general, just being a good friend.

Thanks to John, Jessica, and the entire RE/MAX Team for making this such a pleasurable experience , and making us feel welcome in the Murphy NC community.

Cherokee Lake in Murphy NC on Forest Service Land

Posted by I Love Murphy on

Cherokee Lake is a beautiful place to have a picnic, fish, relax, and enjoy right here in Murphy NC. It’s largely brought to us by the US Forest Service, who is responsible for maintaining the grounds. On the grounds, you’ll find a great dock to fish from, a large picnic pavilion, picnic tables scattered around with grills you can use, and walking trails so you can venture into the woods and enjoy all that nature has to offer.

It’s located in the Hiwassee Dam community of Murphy right off of 294. To get there, you will take Highway 64 West, make a right on 294. Follow that a couple miles to the entrance to Cherokee Lake on your right hand side. It’s just before the brand new bridge.

Be sure to check it out, have a picnic, and enjoy the outdoors!

Posted by I Love Murphy on

This past weekend was the 2010 RE/MAX Client Appreciation Picnic right in downtown Murphy at Konaheeta Park! It was a huge success and the weather was perfect. We had over 300 folks RSVP to the event. It was a great opportunity to say thank you to all our customers, clients, and friends who help us grow our real estate business.

We had some great barbecue from Herb’s BBQ on 64, big bounce houses for the kids, Eventmasters providing the entertainment and music, door prizes, and more! Not only that, nature provided us some great entertainment with some spectacular colors. That’s right – let the Leaf Season begin! This weekend really started kicking it off, so we have a couple weeks of some really great fall colors.

So go ahead, mark it on your calender for 2011! It’ll be on the second Saturday in October – always the weekend after the John C. Campbell Folk School Fall Festival.

Joyce Carr Sells Her Family Property on Cook Creek with The Poltrock Team in Murphy NC

Posted by I Love Murphy on
Joyce Carr and her husband, Jack

John and his staff at REMAX in Murphy NC were always very friendly, informative, and professional. Since I live almost 3 hours away from the property I sold, John was very helpful in going to the property if needed before a showing (once he went out and swept up lady bugs that move in to houses left unoccupied). He also took care of getting the well going since it had not been used for some time.

He was even at the attorney’s office for me for support as this was somewhat an emotional time in selling family property that I’ve owned a long time. I would absolutely use them again and recommend them to anyone considering selling their home or land.

Need help selling your cherished family property? We’ll handle it with care. Contact us for murphy nc real estate.

PS – Thank you again John and Jessica.

John C Campbell Folk School Fall Festival 2010

The Banner for the 2010 Folk School Fall Festival

Every year, The John C. Campbell Folk School hosts one of my personal favorite Fall Festivals in Murphy, NC. Thousands of people flock to the small town of Brasstown, NC to celebrate the changing of the seasons.

This year was no different. It was great! There were lots of people and some really good vendors this year. Everything from paintings, photography, prints, glass work, iron work, chairs, you-name-it was represented this year. All the vendors were great to speak with and where more than open to sharing their experiences and how they accomplished their craft.

Music and dancing is always a large part of the celebration. My

I love hearing the violins every year!

personal favorite is watching the younger kids play violins – they’re amazingly talented. Not only that, our church choir even sings at the barn which is always neat to watch.

If you’ve never been to a Fall Festival, you certainly need to! There’s nothing like it – just be sure to come hungry and ready to walk! 🙂

The Big Sweep – A Lake Hiwassee Cleanup in Murphy NC

Posted by I Love Murphy on

Lake Hiwassee is a gorgeous resource here in Murphy, and I find myself writing about it often in many different articles. A week ago today was the annual Big Sweep. It’s an arranged group of folks who spend at least half their Saturday on Lake Hiwassee cleaning up trash in different coves. Jessica and I did it, and I have to admit, it was a lot of fun! We even did it on our canoe, so we paddled the whole way! It was a bit more work, but I have to admit, it got us to places where larger boats would’ve had trouble and was fun.

It was organized by Silas Allen, our very own head of the Cherokee Building Department, and Susan Hersh (who I might add is the “face” of the Building Department as you always see her running the show when you go in 🙂 ) It takes ton of preparation and organization, and thanks to them, the turnout was great. There were roughly 130 volunteers, 20 boats, and an estimated 20,000 pounds of trash taken from the shores of the lake. This year’s focus was right around Bear Paw. It was such a great event – it was on the front Page of this week’s Cherokee Scout newspaper.

The majority of the trash come from the rivers, creeks, and streams that are tributaries to Lake Hiwassee. It’ll come from someone’s yard and eventually end up in Lake Hiwassee. We found lots of things in the lake such as tennis balls, countless plastic bottles, Skoal cans, tires, coolers, televisions, and tons more. It’s amazing how many things end up in the lake, and it was nice to know we were able to make a difference.
