Great communication with host. Enjoyed the location and the amenities. The place is small but perfect for a couple or small family. Loved the deck and the kitchen/living room open space. Our dog had a great time as well. Having a smart tv and games were a plus for us. We had one issue with the furnace leaking gas and not working but the host was on it and walked me through everything to use the ac/heater unit in the living room and that worked fine for us since we didn’t use the back bedroom.

William is a great host. We love his place and will be back again. Through the complications of weather-related power outages, he provided constant updates. Once things were accessible we enjoyed our stay very much. Do pay attention to his comment about cell coverage. Because power and cable/internet cables are all above-ground, you can lose internet if the power lines take a hit. We were able to access Verizon reasonably well and I brought a Starlink mini as backup which worked well for streaming shows.

Murphy's Cottage was clean, inviting, and a perfect location to get to the grocery store, restaurants, and White Pines Lake. The kitchen had all of the amenities you need, the new AC unit in the living area was perfect at cooling down the place quickly, and the bedrooms were comfortable. We would definitely stay again when in Arnold!
