About this house rental

Welcome to Murphys Ranch — a true escape on 80 private acres in the Sierra foothills where the views are big, the vibes are relaxed, and the pool is yours.

This three-bedroom, three-bathroom home sleeps up to eight and blends laid-back 1970s charm with modern comfort. Vaulted ceilings, a sun-drenched living room, and an expansive deck overlooking the pool create the perfect indoor-outdoor flow. The open layout gives everyone space to connect and spread out, whether you’re sharing a meal, playing games, or disappearing into a book.

The fully stocked, newly updated kitchen makes cooking easy, whether you’re keeping it casual or going full chef mode. Eat indoors with your party of eight or head outside for dinner under the stars—either way, the views are on the menu.

After a day of lounging poolside or exploring nearby trails, wine country, and lakes, come home to the comfort of well-appointed bedrooms and a quiet so deep you’ll forget the rest of the world exists.

And if you’re up early, take a stroll to the Red Apple Stand for fresh-baked doughnuts and turnovers—a local rite of passage.

We had a wonderful stay as always, it seems to me that the layout of the property enhances family connection: The pool and outdoor spaces is a dream with the view, and the inside spaces allow for some rest and play. Kitchen is well stocked, beds are comfy and tv station is excellent. Don’t miss Mercer caverns (and red apple obv.) if you have a chance to go! Only observation is that there is an outside couch that could use a refresh. Thanks for having us, we’ll certainly be back!

Great pool, tucked away from the highway, but perfectly situated to promise excellent views. Red Apple Stand is a MUST. Oh, and the kitchen was very well stocked. Hosts were accommodating to a special request, something I have never done, but it was essential to our stay. Thanks again!!!
