Lovely Place to Explore Murphys and Surrounding Area

We visited Calaveras Big Tree park and Mercer Cavern. It was an anniversary weekend to relax in nature. Our hosts, Arlene and Adam, could not have been more welcoming. Their place is beautifully decorated, has an amazing kitchen and a stunning view. Highly recommend!

Gorgeous Getaway

Adam and Arlene have a beautiful guest home with woodsy views. The home is even more gorgeous than pictured and fully stocked with everything you could need. Property is great for relaxing, enjoying movies, and a nice location on the way to bear valley. We enjoyed the fully stocked kitchen and beautiful bathrooms. The deck has a fire pit with great views as well. Adam and Arlene were very attentive and helpful, yet respectful of our privacy. We loved the stay and hope to visit again!

Calaveras Getaway

We visited the area to attend Murphys’ Irish Days with friends who live in Laguna Hills. This was their first visit to a historical Gold Country town. After experiencing the parade, other festivities, great food, shopping and people watching, we were ready for Arlene & Adam’s private getaway. Their property is well maintained, the home is well appointed, and the views well worth the drive up the hill. When we had questions or issues to resolve, Arlene was quick to respond to ensure we had a lovely stay. When we have the opportunity, we’ll stay there again.

Quiet yet close

The house is perfect for a quiet getaway. It is tucked back away from the hustle and bustle and has a great view! We were close enough to all of the attractions so that exploring the area was easy. Arlene and Adam were great hosts! Nice personal touches and coffee, bottled water, and snacks available as well. The house is comfortably furnished with a warm homey feeling. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay : - )

Cozy, clean, wonderful, fabulous house in the mountains!

This is a 6 star VRBO! The house is wonderful, it is brand new and has everything you want for a cozy place in the mountains. We spent a few days here, you are in a quiet area, remote but close to Murphys and Arnold and get the best of both worlds. The hosts are great and we’d definitely stay here again!!

Terrific House - Great for People with Mobility Issues

We LOVED staying at Arlene and Adam's house - so comfortable, perfect amount of room for 2 couples. Arlene's kitchen is the most well appointed kitchen and was perfect for our group. Bonus points for no stairs and walk in showers made it a great fit for my friend who uses a cane. THANKS VERY MUCH for the stay, we really enjoyed it.

The Perfect Place

This place is new and had everything we needed. A tasteful build in a quiet location. My wife and I were very comfortable for our weekend stay and they even left us a welcome bottle of wine. This place is a 10/10 and we would love to return for our next Murphys trip. Thank you, Arlene!
