What guests say
8.7 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 766 guest reviews
Murphy's Resort earns strongly positive sentiment overall, with guests consistently highlighting its outstanding location near Rocky Mountain National Park, genuinely friendly staff, and an impressive range of included amenities — from bike and DVD rentals to a heated pool, hot tub, and live music. The main drawbacks are dated rooms and underpowered air conditioning that struggles in warm weather, along with a breakfast offering that some guests found too limited for the price. Those who can overlook the aging infrastructure tend to leave highly satisfied and eager to return.
