This place was perfect for my husband and my trip to Murphys. It was quiet, clean, comfortable, and downtown was easily walkable. Only thing I will point out is there is no closet and no drawers to put your clothes in. They do provide several wall hooks to make up for it if you need to hang something and that worked well. Not a big deal but pack your bags with that in mind. Overall wonderful place and I highly recommend! Thanks for having us! We loved every minute and look forward to staying again.

A perfect stay. Bed was very comfortable and sheets were soft. We could open windows to stay cool and fans made the difference. Nice, quiet neighborhood within walking distance to main street. Well appointed and clean. Great hosts that provided accurate directions and description of the property. Highly recommend.
