PS Murphy: Updated, Modern and Comfortable Desert Home
Welcome to PS Murphy! This updated 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom home is bright and spacious making the perfect retreat for escape or entertainment. Modern furnishings in a stylish yet soothing color palette make for a chic yet casual backdrop for your Palm Springs vacation.
Enter the living room and you'll enjoy an open floor plan with beautiful new tile floor. With plenty of seating, everyone can enjoy an easy afternoon or perhaps an early cocktail hour before heading out to dinner. The living room flows seamlessly into the dining room so no one misses out on the action. The contemporary dining area features seating for 6 or up to 8 comfortably and is steps from the kitchen.
The well-stocked kitchen with new stainless appliances has all the tools you'll need to make entertaining a snap. Downtown is just minutes away just in case you'd rather enjoy the city and sights of Palm Springs.
This home offers great bedroom separation and sleeping arrangements. The primary bedroom, on one side of the house, is spacious and offers its own private, full bath with step-in shower. On the opposite side of the house, you'll find 2 guest rooms: one guest room offers a king bed while the other offers 2 twin beds. These twin beds can be converted to a king with prior notice to management. Just outside each of these bedroom doors is their guest bath.
The backyard is fully decked with tons of entertaining space and plenty of covered seating, too. Outdoor dining is covered so you can maximize outdoor living both day and night. There are 4 chaise lounges to catch the rays you were seeking in Palm Springs. The outdoor kitchen will make grilling fun and the counter at the grill with bar-stool seating ensures you can bring cocktails and snacks to keep the grill master entertained. There's a half-bath/powder room on the patio for everyone's convenience. Named after the owners' charming Yorkie, PS Murphy is an ideal getaway: comfortable, uncomplicated and suited for every age! Dog-friendly, of course! Murphy wouldn't have it any other way.

Upon initial arrival we were a little disappointed as the property wasn’t as clean as expected and overall it just looked a bit worn (not accurate per listing photos). The pool area is fantastic! Such a gorgeous space with beautiful landscaping. The neighborhood is a bit run down and not super walkable but it is close to everything. Overall we had a great time - it’s hard to beat Palm Springs!
It was a terrific house and a fantastic back yard area. Very comfortable. Our host was fantastic and explained everything so our visit went smoothly. Would stay again.
Perfect home for a family getaway. We were looking forward to spending time in the pool and the backyard exceeded our expectations! Great pool, spa, and multiple seating areas set up with a balance of sun and shade. Modern and convenient check-in process with attention to detail was a really nice plus. We would love to stay here again!
We had a lovely stay and were comfortable at the Murphy, however the place itself is a bit more faded than the pictures represent. Bathrooms and kitchens were in great shape, but many of the furnishings are ready to be upgraded. The pool area and back yard were lovely and comfortable and the highlight of the house, with beautiful landscaping and lights at night. An easy 5-7 minute drive to downtown. Host was easy to communicate with, accommodating, and just what you hope for when renting.
This is a beautiful property with outdoor living spaces that made it difficult to leave. The kitchen is stocked with everything a cook would need, the towels were oversized and the beds comfortable. The management company, Brad in particular, needs to be commended for their quick communication, personal touch, and flexibility. A wonderful rental and stay!
Stayed here for a recent family vacation and this house perfect in every way! Clean, well stocked, great amenities (such as TVs, kitchen outdoor and pool space) and booking/checkin/checkout were all excellent. It was really hot when we stayed and the AC worked well (not always the case with rentals!) and the pool was perfect, so we were very comfortable. Highly recommend this house and management company!
Great stay! Great communication! The home was as advertised - well stocked and that backyard is everything! It’s got a little windy a few evenings but we stayed on the windy side so expected it. Lots of nearby shopping.
The house is beautiful comfortable and clean. The property manager was so friendly and helpful. We love drinking coffee in the morning on the backyard lounge chairs and floating in the pool during the day. Quick Uber to all the restaurants and activities. House is in a quiet neighborhood. Love all the amenities. We would definitely book this house again.

We really enjoyed this property, took our border collie and lab/shepher, 4 teenagers, and they all LOVED it! The pool is the perfect size, and the back yard area is both luxurious and serene. The only thing I didn’t like was that we couldn’t make any noise after 10PM per rules/threats of fines but I think that’s a local law? When you’re on vacation you don’t really want a curfew to your own backyard.
Centrally located and well appointed with everything you need. The backyard is small but really well laid out with great amenities. It is quite close to the airport but we didn't really notice it after the first day. Very responsive property manager.Only complaint was that the floor and furniture outside was flifthy. It didnt take long to clean but hopefully for the next guests it will be fixed.
Our family had a great stay over the holidays. We especially enjoyed hanging out in the backyard in the pool and hot tub. The house was nicely appointed, the beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked and linens were of good quality and clean. We appreciated the high end BBQ and were so happy to have use of the outdoor heater the one night we dined alfresco. The location was very convenient to the highway but a little bit of a drive to all the restaurants and shops downtown. The living room set up was perfect for playing card games and working on our puzzle at night.
Would be happy to stay again and hope to be back soon.
I stayed here with some friends to celebrate new years. Slept 6 adults comfortably, and we made ample use of the hot tub and pool. Very mellow neighborhood overall, if a little “far” from downtown Palm Springs. Great view of the mountain from the living room window. Clean and comfortable, with a small yet well-appointed kitchen. Thoughtful plastic wear to use by the pool, and the lounge area in the back with the space heater was charming. Hosts were very responsive to check in process and requests. Overall, a delight!

We really enjoyed staying here. Great house, great pool. The only comment we have is, please upgrade the couch in the living room. It has no comfort anymore.
