Well it was pretty cool to have a herd of Elk greet us right outside of the hotel on day two of our visit! Locals told us that it wasn’t unusual to see Elk near the property.

Stay was in great location, walking distance to town. Scenary of mountain, low clouds and elk grazing nearby was serene. Room was clean, welcoming touches. Beds were comfortable and room was quiet.

We saw elks right on the property which was really cool, super welcoming front desk with popcorn and old school movies, the river in the back is cool too. We got breakfast elsewhere however

Creek-side room, quiet, roomy and very well-supplied kitchen in our suite. Large bathroom with nice tub/shower combo. Parking is a little tight, and I might suggest designated/numbered parking to correspond to each room since we did have someone else park in front of our room. It wasn’t a big problem, though,

We really enjoyed our stay. Love the charm of Murphy's and love the size of the room. The kitchen was very well appointed. The bed was VERY comfortable. The room and bath were perfectly clean. Everyone I talked to in the office was so helpful and so nice. The location is excellent! I walked to the main street in about 12-13 minutes. The bathrooms could use a bit of updating. Also I would suggest thicker rugs to help with muffling the sound. We were in a 1rst floor room and could very clearly hear the people above us walking around. I think thicker rugs might help. I would definitely stay there again if we head to Estes. Really loved having the creek outside. Thank you!

Overall a good experience. The place was a little older but had all the amenities required and was in a really wonderful location to Estes and Rocky Mountian National Park
