Joe and Family are great hosts. Murph’s landing is ideal for walking to football games, Varsity club (best wings in town) and feeling a part of Morgantown.

Excellent Property

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this property! From the moment we arrived, everything was spotless, and beautifully maintained. The home was fully equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing visit. Our host was incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and made the entire process seamless. The little touches—like clear instructions, cozy furnishings, and a welcoming atmosphere—really made it feel like a home away from home.Great experience and we’d definitely stay here again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an stress-free, top-notch rental!

Excellant Place to Stay

Murph's place was everything the description said it is. It was a perfect place for us to relax in the evening. The kitchen is well stocked. We ended up making a contest with our friends to find all the hidden Disney references. Some are easy to spot, but others are more subtle. Thanks for letting us stay here.

Fantastic Location and Host!

What a great spot! Love the location and decor of this house. Joe was a great host and very prompt to reply and easy to communicate with. This house worked as a great home base for us while we were visiting our daughter at college.

So clean and comfy!

Owners thought of everything, this was a wonderful home away from home visit to Morgantown! Location was perfect and so convenient for our tour of the university. We could not have been happier or more comfortable in this gem of a house. Thank you!

Sweet Morgantown house in a convenient locagtion

The house is in excellent condition, well-maintained, clean and very thoroughly organized and clearly labeled. Fans of WV football will especially love staying here: it was owned by a beloved former cameraman for WVU games, and there are many tributes to him throughout. The place is dog friendly, has pleasant outdoor space and is very comfortable.

Perfect home for WVU visit

We were in Morgantown to tour WVU and attend a football game. They have thought of absolutely everything in this house. The kitchen is fully stocked with anything you could need - it’s as if you are at your own home. Everything is labeled - all light switches, cabinets, drawers. The house is very welcoming for our dogs as well. The fenced backyard is great! It’s a short walk to the stadium and an easy drive to restaurants. We will definitely stay here anytime we come to Morgantown.

Amazing trip to Morgantown

This was our first trip to Morgantown and it was for my daughter to attend Decide WVU with myself and my oldest daughter along with her. Needless to say it is a YES! When I say that this place is the MOST PERFECT place you could book for your stay, that is probably an understatement. Every single thing you could possibly want is provided in the house as well as providing a place that truly feels like home with love and care shown everywhere. It is extremely clean and very comfortable with perfect beds and cloud like pillows. I am booking our second trip as we speak and cannot wait to come back and stay again in Murphs Landing.

Murph Landing

Joe and Karen have a beautiful home that isn't just well maintained, it's truly loved and it shows. From the artwork and photos on the walls, to the newly remodeled kitchen and bathroom-- no detail has been spared. The home was spotless upon arrival, check-in was extremely simple, and Joe was communicative and accessible during our stay. The cozy bungalow is conveniently located near WVU, the hospital, and the football stadium, with a large shopping center less than a minute down the road. It was an easy drive to Cheat Lake, Cooper's Rock, and the WV Botanic Gardens. And I can't forget how awesome it was to have a fenced in backyard for our two pups to run around. If we ever find ourselves in Morgantown again, I wouldn't want to stay anywhere other than Murph Landing!

Everything we needed for a perfect weekend

We came for my daughter’s WVU graduation and Murph’s Place was perfect. Not only was it a comfortable place to stay in a convenient location, but it was fully supplied to celebrate the day. We had family back after the ceremony for a backyard lunch/bbq and the house/yard and meticulously maintained supplies made everything a breeze. We really got to relax and enjoy our graduate. Also, the owners are great communicators and really thought of everything to make our stay perfect.

One of a kind!!

You couldn't ask for a better place to stay at WVU, especially with the history packed in the house. Joe and Karen take so much pride in their house and when you walk into the house for the first time, you feel so welcomed. Everything was spotless and with the 1,000 labels around the house, you knew where everything was :) The outside fence was perfect for our dogs and they even felt right at home.I would definitely recommend this house to anyone and will stay here again.

Very clean, charming and well appointed home!

We absolutely loved our stay at Murph’s Landing for Decide WVU weekend! From the moment we stepped onto the porch, we could feel the love and history in this beautifully restored home. Joe and Karen have created a warm, clean and welcoming space that honors Murph’s legacy while offering every modern comfort to their visiting guests. Our kids had a blast finding the hidden Disney “Easter eggs" hidden throughout the home, and the house had everything we needed—from clear instructions and thoughtful extras, to streaming apps, fast WiFi, and TVs in every room. The fenced backyard was perfect for our pugs, and we loved winding down on the front porch swing each evening. The location is ideal—just minutes from the stadium, Coliseum, campus, and great dining options at Suncrest Town Center. Joe and Karen’s kindness and personalized hospitality made our trip extra special - we can’t wait to return again in the future! We HIGHLY recommend Murph’s Landing!

There is nothing you can think of that this home doesn’t provide. I couldn’t believe the level of love and detail this home offered. Incredible stay, comfortable, and meticulously maintained. I didn’t want to leave! Visiting my son, who is a student brought our dog along! Even our dog was pampered with amenities for him. I guarantee you will not be disappointed

Enjoyed our stay! Very clean, well cared for property with easy access to WVU. We appreciated that the owners labeled everything and provided the little things (well equipped kitchen, coffee, shampoo, washer and dryer, etc )to make our stay comfortable. Best part it is that we could bring our pups to visit with their brother who attends WVU! We will definitely stay there again!
