This was a fantastic place to stay. It is very clean, well stocked and so peaceful. We were there during the fire and the contact woman was extremely helpful providing information on evacuation, and assured us she will call if anything changes. Will definitely stay there again

Murphys Cottage

We used the town of Murphys to visit the Big Trees State Park for several days. A great location to visit this area of California. The cottage was wonderful, and the town had several good restaurants and shops.

Great little house on a beautiful creek setting. Convient location with short walk to town. Clean and cozy. Was very hot (100 plus) in the area that weekend. Could use a better fan in the evening . Air conditioning worked well. Definitely would return again for another great weekend.

The property was clean and very nice loved the creek and outdoor space. We also loved Murphy... what and amazing little town with great food and wine. Decided however that this location is not really walkable from the house as there is an extremely busy road between the two.

Fern Creek Cottage

Nice little place by Murphy Creek. Clean & tidy. Only priblem with our stay was the overflowing a/c bucket upon arrival. It created quite a mess but got it cleaned up fine. Loved the sound of the creek.

The cottage is just adorable and the sound of the water running by is so relaxing with a glass of wine in hand. The place was very clean and just right for 2 people. If there is a negative at all, it's just that you have to cross a busy road if you want to walk into downtown Murphy's. We drove most of the time anyway. Highly recommend!

This cottage was the perfect getaway. Close to downtown Murphy but seemed like a world away. The sound of the creek was soothing to hear. The outside fire pit was a very nice touch. We will be back!!
