We enjoyed our stay at Murphy’s resort. There was goose poop everywhere though not the fault of the owners. The managers were very accommodating and helpful. We loved the selection of dvds and games. The room and playground could use some updating/maintenance but we had no real issues with it. Overall it was a nice stay.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Staff was wonderful. Bed was very comfortable. Great price, value. Small gift shop for needs forgotten. Hundreds of DVDs for free along with free popcorn. Snacks available. Great place for children, as there are playgorounds, tether ball, swings, corn hole. Lots of BBQ grills and picnic areas, all on property. I went in the winter and it was very quiet. Rooms are somewhat updated.

Loved our stay! The rooms look to be very clean and newly remodeled. The bed was comfortable. Staff is very friendly! It honestly was all the little things like popcorn, dvd rentals, indoor jacuzzi, hot cocoa and coffee stand. Plus they gave us complimentary waters with chocolate on our way out. Would recommend and stay again.

For the price, we were impressed. Such great hospitality with hot chocolate bar and s’mores bar at check in, nostalgic dvd collection and friendly. Rooms are per friendly which means echoes but if we’d had our dogs it would have been great.
