Murphy's Retreat was very spacious and had a lot of room for our two dogs. We loved the outdoor space especially how quiet it was. We loved how close it was to the Rocky Mountains National Park. The property was clean with all the essentials needed for cooking. We would recommend property and definitively come back ourselves.
Manager's Response
We are so happy to hear you and your dogs enjoyed the home and outdoors so much during your stay! We would love to have you back!

The location was great, only 5 minutes from RMNP entrance on west side of park. The area was beautiful. The house was comfortable and large enough for 4 to 6 people. The only complaints were uncomfortable (too soft) mattresses, the front stairs were somewhat rickety, and the sliding glass door in the kitchen did not lock properly.
Manager's Response
We are happy to hear you enjoyed the home, Luten. Despite the minor issues with the property and personal preference of the beds being too soft, it doesn't sound like those hindered any enjoyment. We hope to see you again!

This property is definitely a 90's through back but it was worked well for our family. I would have expected the steps and porch to be shoveled for safety purposes. The mattresses really need to be replaced they are very well worn. Very pretty surroundings and close to Grand lake Village which is convenient. Over all nice but could use some updating.
Manager's Response
Hi John, this home is one of our older pet friendly homes that is budget friendly. While it may need some updating, it is still a great home that we rent out a lot to groups who really just need a place to stay while they enjoy the majority of their time doing outside activities. We hope to see you again sometime!

This is a great 3 bedroom home for our family. We have stayed here a few times. The bedrooms are good sized, the kitchen is well equipped. The deck and BBQ grill are wonderful. The kids love playing outside and there is a lot of area for them to roam while still being close to the house. We did notice a few places that some general repairs or upkeep are needed - but nothing that affects the functionality of the house.
Manager's Response
We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay at Murphy's Retreat! It's a wonderful layout for families with small children. We hope that you come back and stay with us again. Thank you!

I liked the house an location. I thought the price was reasonable has a friend had a dog so dog friendly. It was easy access.
It was roomy kitchen was spacious.
I have to say the beds were not ideal at all. They had no mattress it was bedsprings and a couple of mattress pads. Seems like they would buy some cheap mattresses.
I think the house was i ok condition again the beds were not good. We had 5 people and they all said something
The property company was responsive when we noticed the propane was empty they came up and brought us one that day
I gave the condition of the home a 3 because of the beds. The rest of the overall property was in good condition.
Manager's Response
Thank you Jeri for staying with us at Murphys Retreat! You'll be happy to know that the owner is actually coming up this weekend with new beds, we're sure they will be much more comfortable. Glad we were able to get you that propane, we hope your group had an excellent vacation, please come see us again!

The home was wonderful and just the right size for our family. Good location. Wonderful area around the outside for the kids to play. The only 'issue' we ran into was not having any mixing sized bowls to mix pancakes in; and the twin beds are uncomfortable - at least for an adult. The mattress is hard and feels like springs are poking up.
Manager's Response
Murphys Retreat is a great family home out in the woods with peace and quiet all around you! We are glad you had a nice time with your family and we hope you come back and stay with us again!

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.

We are so pleased your family enjoys Grand Lake. We're pretty happy with it ourselves! We hope you'll come back and see us again.

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.

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.

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.
