Charming Murphys Retreat: Luxury, Nature, and Wine Awaits! 5 mins to Main St!

Welcome to Your Murphys Sanctuary

Close your eyes and picture this: You wake up to the gentle rustling of leaves and the sun casting a warm glow through the windows. As you step onto the deck, the crisp mountain air embraces you, and all you hear is the soothing symphony of birdsong.

In your hands, a glass of locally crafted wine, the essence of Murphys captured in every sip. You relax in a cozy chair on the expansive deck, gazing out at the rolling hills and lush greenery that stretches as far as the eye can see. Here, the worries of the world are forgotten, and serenity reigns supreme.

As the day unfolds, you explore the wonders of Murphys. A visit to the nearby wineries introduces your taste buds to exquisite flavors, and you stroll through charming boutiques, discovering unique treasures along the way.

Evenings are reserved for culinary delights. Your fully equipped kitchen beckons, and you prepare a feast with fresh local ingredients. Dining al fresco under the starlit sky becomes a cherished ritual, and laughter fills the air as you share stories with loved ones.

Inside, the living room exudes modern elegance, the fireplace casting a cozy ambiance for gathering. Each bedroom offers comfort beyond compare, and you slip into a restful sleep, dreaming of the adventures that await tomorrow.

Whether you're seeking a romantic escape, a family adventure, or a moment of solitude, your Murphys retreat is the canvas upon which unforgettable memories are painted. It's not just a getaway; it's an immersion into the beauty of nature, the luxury of modern living, and the heartwarming charm of Murphys.

This is your invitation to experience a stay like no other. Your Murphys sanctuary awaits.

Wonderful get away in Gold Country

We loved our visit to Murphy’s. This rental is lovely and has so many amenities for kids and dogs (we didn’t bring our pup this visit).The beds were comfortable and the kids loved the bunk beds. We will look to stay here next time we visit Murphys

Wedding weekend

We came up for a family wedding. The house was perfect for what we needed. The layout is nice and open. The area is beautiful and quiet, all of the neighbors waved as they walked/drove by. Great property, will use it again for future trips.

Host was very quick to respond with answers to our inquiries, provided 99.9% of everything we needed to make our stay convenient and accommodating, layout of home worked out perfect for our family and the game room was a huge hit for our grandsons! First time in five years of renting a home away from home, would we consider returning to the same one again. This one was perfect for our Thanksgiving getaway! Hot tub is calling our names since we were so busy we didn’t get a chance to use it this time. So happy to have finally found a place we want to stay at again next year! Thank you for all the little things that added to our memorable family holiday. We enjoyed all the signs on the walls…laughed at several of them!

Perfect Christmas Stay

We really loved that the house had a Chrismas tree and outdoor and indoor holiday decor. It really made the place that much more like home. The house was very well stocked and clean. Check in and check out was super easy. We had a lovely time and would love to come another time to explore the area more.

Great house!

We really enjoyed the house during our rainy weekend. It's cozy, but with plenty of space. The hot tub is great- just be sure to turn it up well in advance of when you want to use it (like the night before). Very friendly host. Great property, especially for the price!

Murphy Charmer

We had such a great time at this wonderful house! It has everything you need, right where it should be. The jetted hot tub was essential after playing in the snow. The pup loved the backyard and wildlife. The kitchen had everything including k cups/tea and the beds were super comfy. Thank you for the hospitality!

Family Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas. Enjoyed time in Murphys shopping, wine tasting, and had a great dinner at the Murphys Hotel. Close enough to visit Bear Valley and took beautiful walks. Appreciated the Christmas tree and lights. It was quiet and the kitchen was well stocked. Very enjoyable

Charming with all the conveniences

Sathya was a wonderful host! She replied promptly when I had questions and provided a lovely and comfortable home obviously prepared by a detail-oriented person. There’s full laundry and an awesome game room at ground level, and everything else on the second floor. There’s a Keurig with k-cups for morning brew, a thoughtful selection of snacks, tv with streaming services, and even body lotion in the bathrooms for when you step out of the shower and realize you forgot some essential toiletries! The front deck is very cool, the backyard is lovely, and the hot tub was the icing on the cake! I will definitely be returning!

We had a great visit! The location of the house in the trees, away from the highway, off a country road through wineries and vineyards, made for a perfect start to our weekend. The weather was hot, so sitting on the deck in the cool early morning with coffee, listening to the birds was so relaxing. Evening dinners on the deck with a local wine was very nice. The air conditioning was a great relief. Access to Main Street in Murphy's was just about 5 minutes away. Such a fun place. The kitchen had a nice stock of condiments and some spices but could've used more cooking utensils and serving bowls. The coffee maker is a Keurig, so we could only use the pods provided. We're kind of fussy about our coffee and wished that there'd been an alternative automatic coffee maker. The living room was very comfortable and access to streaming was easy. We'd hoping to visit again.

Some issues, but the owner worked to resolve

The home is charming and well-equipped. We encountered a problem: the air conditioning didn't work - we contacted the owner, and he worked diligently to get a technician to resolve the problem. Unfortunately, it took almost 24 hours to get someone onsite to fix the problem. The area is pleasant, quiet, and safe. Based on our experience, visitors to the area should be prepared for power outages of unknown duration - affecting restaurants in the area and electrical services in the home. There's nothing wrong with the home and supplies, but our experience was colored by being ill all weekend and missing out entirely on the frog jump activities.
