Summary: Home was clean and had plenty of room for two couples. The circular driveway was very nice for entering and leaving on motorcycles. David was very pleasant and responsive when we had an issue with the heat. He quickly responded and resolved the issue. It’s very close to town as well as the casino. We enjoyed our stay in Murphy and would highly recommend David’s home. We would definitely reserve again.

Summary: We stayed for four weeks to escape the Florida heat. The house is wonderful and had everything we needed for an extended stay. The comfy king bed is upstairs with an ensuite bath with two sinks and fluffy towels. There is a nice tower fan for air circulation and white noise. The main level has a large wrap around porch and the mountain view from the two rocking chairs was peaceful. There is a large flat screen smart TV in the living room. There was a bottle of wine to welcome us. The kitchen was well equipped and we had no trouble eating most of our meals in. Lots of pans, utensils and dishes/glasses. There is a large gas grill on the porch and a firepit in the back yard. The basement had a living area, ping pong table, darts and door to the large, unfenced back yard. There is a full bathroom on each of the three levels and a gas fireplace in the living room that we did not use. The owner was very responsive to any issues that arose. The neighborhood was quiet and wooded and we saw so many deer every day. We really enjoyed our stay here. It is about five minutes into Murphy which has grocery stores, Walmart and a compact downtown area with lots of shops, restaurants and breweries/wineries.

Summary: The house was comfortable and roomy. Conveniently located to shopping even though it is in a quite, up land neighborhood. We would have liked to have some more living room lighting, mixing bowls, a cookie sheet, pitcher, better knives, platter, and some food storage containers. We got by well, but think the house would be perfect with these items.
