Only home to stay when visiting Murphy!

Beautiful home! It is exceptionally well constructed and very well decorated. The location is the BEST! You will love the front porch! The pictures online are good, but the home is much better than the pictures can show. I highly recommend staying at the "Old School House"!

Bride’s family

It was a perfect spring weekend for our daughter’s wedding at Vida Buena Farm in Vallecito. The house is spacious and well laid out including the rocking chairs and table/chairs on the porch. The upstairs bedroom with 2 beds is large and easily accommodated the bride’s garments and pre-wedding photo session. The location right off Main Street was a quick walk to the rehearsal reception at Hovey and the after party at Murphy’s Hotel. Definitely recommend!

Murphys house

Thank you to our wonderful host, Nuala, for allowing us to stay at this beautiful home. Not only was it beautifully maintained & decorated, but it had the perfect location. The house itself was immaculate & the porch & outdoor spaces were amazing. This has become my new favorite place to stay for our yearly 'girls trip' weekend to Murphys, CA. Thanks again.
