I had an incredible experience at Murphy's Resort in Estes Park. The location is perfect, just a short drive to Rocky Mountain National Park, and the services offered were fantastic. Our family reunion was a success thanks to the spacious accommodations and responsive staff. However, I did find that figuring out the heating system in the room took a little time. Overall, this place provides great value for a family getaway.

Our family had a wonderful stay at the hotel with its many thoughtful amenities, like the welcoming staff and great entertainment options. The atmosphere was perfect for creating lasting family memories. However, the room did have an old smell that detracted from our overall experience, and we felt that a bit of modernization would elevate the stay.

The friendly and helpful staff made my experience even better, and I loved the expansive breakfast selection. The location is close to the village center and offers beautiful mountain views.
