After much thought, I decided to rate this B&B according to its peers based on the Murski's pricing for their rooms. With that mind, the property is average. Four rooms with clean sheets and towels (albeit some towels had bleach stains). The bath and shower gel is community use not individual use. The glasses and flatware had spots on them. The outdoor patio is in need of some attention - cushions are stained and worn out, patio tables were extremely dusty. An active wasp nest was right above the patio table. There is an outdoor hot tub (above ground that you climb into). We did not use the hot tub. The breakfast ensuite is left in the refrigerator approx. 15-18 hours prior to morning. Expected fresh fruit - received very old and soggy strawberries. Older fruit was used as a mix for the yogurt parfait concoction. Homemade pear/walnut bread was delicious and extremely sweet. Excellent effort on the part of Pamela, just wished breakfast could be more simple - fresh fruit, hard boiled eggs, sliced tomatoes, avocados and some rolls would have been satisfactory. Fortunately our diet was not too totally restrictive. This review is again written with the price in mind and thinking about Murski as it relates to its area peers. Thus, the property is average and overpriced for what is offered. Needs to have some more attention given to the details at its...
Read moreMy wife and I just stayed at the Murski Homestead B&B and LOVED it! If you are looking for a very comfortable, quiet, get away, this is your place! Pamela, the owner is wonderful, and made us feel right at home on her working ranch. ||||The rooms are spacious, very clean, and extremely comfortable (she uses Comfy sheets). Upon our arrival, we were greeted with a delicious fresh baked loaf of blueberry bread and a list of local restaurants to grab something to eat (we arrived at 7pm). It's just a short drive into Brenham (5 min), where we enjoyed a tasty dinner at a local "farm to table" restaurant downtown. ||||After returning, we sat out on one of the numerous porches to sip glasses of wine while watching the horses and cattle meander over the property. Pamela left us alone unless we engaged her in conversation, which we did, and she was a pleasure to talk to. ||||Breakfast was a continental, that was in the room (fruit, yogurt, the bread, and other similar treats), and was more than enough for us as we drank our coffee on the porch.||||I highly recommend the Murski Homestead B&B for your next trip to Brenham. We live in Houston, and have found our new weekend get away...I hope...
Read moreThis amazing spot has so many positives that it's going to be hard to fit them into a review. ||Organizing & booking was easy. The place was even better than described. The house is beautifully decorated, thoughtfully appointed and a perfect combination of rustic and modern. We loved meeting the charming, helpful and kind owner (Pamela) and found her to be the type of host everyone wishes for: helpful, respectful, unobtrusive and genuinely a sweet person. She had left some delicious homemade lemon yogurt loaf for us, and when we left, packaged up the rest for us to take on the road because we had raved about it!||The bed was super comfortable, bathroom was complete with all necessities (including a magnifying mirror!). ||I especially LOVED the porches (one out front and one out back!) with the comfortable places to relax while listening to the waterfall and watching the horses and cows around us. ||It was a delightful getaway, and we would strongly recommend it to...
