Murphy's Retreat

The home is located in a tall group of woods off of a good road. You have views of the mountains and we saw many animals like elk heards, marmosets, coyotes, and deer. The home had a lot of room and was great for cooking and entertaining which I did several times.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The local wildlife kept everyone entertained. We timed our visit very well, as Arizona was heating up to the triple digits. Getting up to 39-40 degree mornings was something to savor.

Our family had plenty of space. We enjoyed the wild life. The location was great!

The house was great for our family. The kitchen was big and fairly well stocked. The living room was comfy. We loved eating out on the deck off the kitchen. The mattresses are a bit hard. The pictures are representative of the house. We are regulars from Denver into Grand Lake and love the town for it's shops, the Grand Lake Chocolates Ice Cream store, Kayaking, and hikes. The back 'yard' does have A LOT of downed trees and dried wood the kids had to be careful of while hiking around.

Enjoyed this place. Located centrally to the region and all 3 lakes. Moose and deer sighting daily from the windows and porch. NO internet but the whole area has some trouble I think. Decor was very dated from the 80's and want very pleasant, but the usefulness of the home was helpful and lots of space. Great for dogs.

Clean, roomy, well equipped, only negative thing was Mattresses need replaced, kinda hard. Well worth it. Conveniently located.

This place was a wonderful rental for the price, location, and space. Four of us stayed here during an ice fishing tournament, and with the washer/dryer, it really met everyone's needs. The furnace went out once, but after a call was made to the management company, it was fixed within 20 minutes. The management team is very friendly, and I would definitely stay here again. Especially because it allows dogs.

nice home, everything went well. just needed a few extra bedding.

First time to Grand Lake area and greatly enjoyed our time there. Busy but less congested than the northern access to RMNP. Great hiking trails, good restaurants, lots of family oriented activities. Murphy's Retreat is conveniently located but out enough to be quiet and secluded. Most comfortable place and well kept.

This home was everything we needed and more! Very spacious and comfortable!! Fully stocked kitchen. Patio grill & seating.

My husband and I had a great time. The house was perfect, very clean, the kitchen had everything we needed to cook. They provide lots of towels. Our house was also dog friendly which was the best part. We were able to enjoy a nice vacation with our 2 dogs.
