And it's served by Murphy Medical Center, a full-service medical facility offering emergency and surgical care. The county also boasts several primary care clinics and medical specialists so families can choose a physician that suits their needs.
As well as excellent amenities, young families can enjoy many fun activities in the county. For example, they can enjoy fishing or boating at Lake Chatuge or explore the many beautiful hiking trails at Jackrabbit Mountain Recreation Area.
