We were off to the "gold country" for a spur of the moment weekend trip, starting out in Murphys and heading north during a very quiet late February weekend. Though I don't generally care for B&Bs, the Dunbar House was a very good choice, with a perfect location right off Main Street and its many quaint shops and restaurants. Though... More

The wife wanted to stay at a B&B, so I chose this hotel because it is a B&B and well rated. It was in February last year mid week and we had the place to ourselves. It is next to Main St. for us to walk to and easy to get around town. Perfect location, great breakfast, very very nice... More

After a hectic but fun wedding, I stayed at the this wonderful inn for a few days. As a single woman I was at first a little hesitant about staying here as I assumed that it was a romantic retreat for couples. However, I was pleasantly surprised that this inn was perfect for me! I was impressed with the warm... More

All the comforts of home are considered at the Dunbar House! Of course, the rooms are always immaculate; the light gourmet breakfasts, wine selections, and afternoon appetizers divine; but it's the thoughtful touches placed throughout the house and the warm welcoming staff that makes this place so special. Awake to coffee at your door, and go to bed with a... More

We felt so welcomed and really enjoyed our recent stay, the gardens are just lovely with nice spots to relax in. The inn keepers were warm and could not be more accommodating. The food was delicious and well executed, we will return on our next visit to California. More

Most of these reviews sound like I could have written them. My husband and I travel quite often, and I have to say that this was the MOST SPECIAL place ever! Our room, Sequoia, was so spacious! Often, with a king sized bed there is barely room to move around but not the case at the Dunbar House. The decor... More

We had a very nice stay at the Dunbar House. The location is central to downtown Murphys. Our room was lovely and quiet (Sequoia). The proprietors were professional and friendly. We loved the "extra" touches. More

Mr. [--], the self-proclaimed Innkeeper, would not answer the door when we rang the bell because we had our grandson with us and unbeknown to us, they do not accept kids. I found myself looking through the window in disbelief to see Mr. [--] just standing inside, right next to the door, looking at us in the rain getting wet... More

When people ring my doorbell, I answer the door…always. When people ring the FRONT doorbell, it rings in the kitchen, office, garage, apartment, greenhouse and laundry room, and does not stop ringing until the intercom is answered. When guests are scheduled to check in, I carry a portable and keep it on vibrate so that while I am with one... More

My mom and I enjoyed staying at the Dunbar House so much. It was wonderful and every detail was filled with luxury. The room was cozy, warm, and outstanding. We really felt spoiled, because when we entered our room there was a fire going and the refrigerator was full. The breakfast was excellent. Rich and Arline are the best, and... More

The moment we stepped inside Dunbar House, it was like stepping back into 1880 with all the charm, elegance and grace of an era long since passed, where we were greeted warmly by Arline, the owner. We stayed in the Sequoia room which is beautifully decorated with rich burgundy colors. It was fun to experience the room as there were... More
