We had a lovely time. The weather was perfect. The host was very responsive. The home has everything you would need. The views from the deck were amazing, especially watching to moon rise. We were able to recharge. We would love to come stay again!

Quiet and secluded with wonderful accommodations. Beautifully decorated inside and a super comfy bed also. Because the cottage sits up on a hill, the views from the deck and surrounding acreage are really lovely. Very peaceful place.

My beau and I absolutely loved our stay at Renee and Paul’s hideaway! It is beautifully designed with style and class. It was the perfect size for 2. We grilled and sipped both our evening wine and morning coffee on the deck-watching the antics of the resident hummingbird. Bed was very comfortable! Nice bath and toiletries. The kitchen was perfect. (Note that there is a microwave but no oven). Secluded and yet close enough to town. We will be back!

Loved this sweet cottage! Everything we needed was there, and it is so comfortable and beautifully decorated. Located about 1.5 miles outside of town and set on its own with lovely sweeping views meant a real sense of privacy and so quiet and peaceful! Renee was super responsive and helpful. We will definitely be back as this is a perfect base for walking in Big Trees State Park (fall colors were amazing) and cycling, plus enjoying the sweet town and amenities of Murphys.

Can not say enough positive about this charming cottage. Wonderful deck, comfortable, small but somehow with everything you could possibly need. Would definitely return!

This little cottage is the perfect place to escape from the hubbub and stress of everyday life. You feel like you're amongst the treetops in the middle of a forest, yet you're a mile or two from charming Murphys and many wineries in the area. This location is also the perfect jumping off place for exploring the Sierras or Gold Country towns. And if you like hummingbirds, trees, or beautiful art, you are in luck, as this location has them all. I would stay here again without hesitation.

We had a wonderful two-day stay at this property. It was perfectly appointed with everything we needed. We enjoyed cooking and dining on the deck in the evening and sipping our coffee there in the morning. The seclusion of the property allows for a peaceful stay. We were constantly watching the numerous birds around us - especially the humming birds! We only wished we had booked another night because it was hard to leave.

Imagine staying in a treehouse, that's how you'll feel in this wonderful abode perfectly appointed for two. The details of this little hideaway are beautifully curated for comfort. We were there during the first rain of the season and thoroughly enjoyed watching it pour down on the pine and oak trees through picture windows in every room. While the property itself is very private, it is located in a charming neighborhood. If you are the walking type, it is an easy two mile walk into town. It was magical staying there. We can't wait to return.

Wonderful stay!

Wonderful stay!

The property is amazing! You are only about a mile from town, but you feel like you are away from it all. The cottage is well equipped for cooking and designed for relaxing. The bed is super comfortable too. Read the correspondence carefully for check-in. We found it a bit confusing. But once we got past that, everything was wonderful. We hope to stay again very soon.

I came to Murphy's for a concert at Ironstone winery. I also needed a few days to relax and reset my inner calm. This was the perfect place. It was just a short way off the main road, but it felt miles removed from the busy world. Sitting on the back deck was so beautiful and relaxing. The birds and wildlife were fun to watch. I was delighted when I saw a grey fox. I can't wait to return.

The cottage was nicely designed and decorated. The only complaint was that there were white stains on the couch. We cleaned them but wondered how the person that cleans didn't see them.

Murphys Hillside Cottage

Murphys Hillside Cottage

We thoroughly enjoyed and relaxed in this comfortable and well-equipped cottage. It is located on a secluded hillside a short drive from Murphys. Excellent coffee was provided, and the Indian Rock red wine was also great - make sure you visit the vineyard just down the road. A most relaxing time, which was needed and appreciated.

Great place

Great place

We loved the decor in this property and all the little extra touches (toiletries, coffee, extra linens etc) We did have some trouble with the internet and the owners ordered a new gateway which will hopefully fix jt. but TMobile cellular service worked well but Verizon did not. The patio was the highlight - great place to eat dinner and grill and it was safe enough for our 3 year old to be on. It's not walkable to downtown (uphill and very hot in July) but it is a short car ride away. The town of Murphy is wonderful with a lovely creek for kids to play in and super friendly town and neighbors. They even invited us to the neighborhood block party!

Excellent Stay, Very Thoughtful Hosts

Excellent Stay, Very Thoughtful Hosts

This little cabin was our choice for my wife and I's annual Murphys trip, and it was a great place to stay. It's nestled up on a hill, about 1/2 mile (walkable) up from Indian Rock Winery, and about 2 miles from downtown (only walkable for the brave, since Pennsylvania Gulch is narrow, windy, and hilly, with not a lot of shoulder). Cabin was nicely appointed, came with everything you would need. Bed was among the softer memory foam mattresses I've been on (most are rock hard), but still firmer than I like. I really liked the casement windows, and the overall amount of windows in the space. This place seems ideal for good weather, as the main dining table is outside (there is a small "cafe table" inside, and a fancy TV tray also), there's a cornhole set, there's lots of operable windows, there's an air mattress if you want to look at the stars, and there's a picnic table at the top of the driveway. The hosts were exceptionally nice, allowing a late checkout, and very promptly answering questions (I forgot to write down the gate code, not just the house code... FYI: there's two numbers you need!), left us a welcome note, a binder full of house notes, a bottle of wine, and restaurant recommendations. The Pros: -Incredible View -Good Size for 2 -Private -Close to town -Excellent Hosts -Operable Windows -HVAC unit worked extremely fast From the "Minor Quibbles" Desk: -Firmer Mattress -Not much tablespace if weather is bad -Water Heater (I think this was the source) was oddly loud -Birds nesting/resting in deck eaves were sometimes noisy... (might have been more irritating had we wanted to use the air mattress stargazing option). -Manual Gate at the bottom (looks like it would have been very irritating trying to operate if you were solo). -Not Walkable to Downtown All in all, the quibbles department was far outweighed by pros column, and we immensely enjoyed our time there, and would stay at this place again, especially during the summer months.
