You can walk to everything from this cute, clean, and comfortable house. If you're familiar with Murphy's you know how important it is to be able to walk through town- ubers are few and far between- ours never showed up for a concert that we went to at Ironstone. We had a great stay, great trip, and plan on coming back! ##### Jennifer M.

I was able to communicate with the property management. There were ants though, so maybe the property should be sprayed periodically to control that. But overall, i would definately recommend this property and would stay again with my husband and daughter. ##### Nancy L.

Each couple had their own private space and bathroom. The only downside was that we couldn’t get the cooktop to work with food and water in the pans. Other than that it was great! ##### Patricia J.

I worked directly with Murphys Vacation Rentals & they are excellent! However, VRBO keeps messaging me but cannot locate my actual reservation. So I was charged the VRBO fee and received zero services from them. I highly recommend working directly with Murphys Vacation rentals for this area. ##### kathy t.

Neat little house with more than enough room for my family of 5\. Everything was very clean and tidy. The layout is a little odd but I wouldn’t deduct any points for that! It’s a unique little place that’s in the best location if you are spending time in Murphys, seriously. We were only in town for two nights, not long enough! We’ll be back! ##### Thomas W.
