My wife and I were trying to get away from the hustle and bustle of raising three small children in a Big City, and we found the perfect little place to do it in Brenham, TX. This little inn is perched at the top of a hill just far enough away from town to feel like you are way out in the country, but close enough that you could drive down the road for a midnight taco if you're feeling peckish. The house itself smells of lavender and whatever gourmet delight the owner has cooked up today. It is warmly decorated without being garishly "country," and the room we stayed in (Sage) was very comfortable with it's high ceilings and friendly colors. The shower in our room was spacious, although the shower head was mounted quite low (if I had to pick at nits, this would be my only complaint). The bed was wide and soft (I should caution you about the risk of slipping into a mid-afternoon coma if you lay on it after a big meal). We signed up for the cooking class with Pamela Murski and it was an absolute delight. She is so friendly and fun to be with. The instruction was very low-pressure, as she walked us through the preparation of a 5 course meal, supplying great advice on technique and plenty of interesting stories about the food, the (very fresh!) ingredients, and her experiences. The food was amazing, and for this one day, it was easy to forget about the cares of the big bad world out there and focus on good food and the people you are with. I think that is exactly why we came - and I wish we didn't have to leave. read more

Everything about this B&B is fantastic! The rooms are very well taken care of and clean, the property is in excellent condition and the grounds are perfectly landscaped. Pamela is an excellent hostess and she makes sure that you have everything you need. We found this B&B when we were looking for an elopement package. We are having a big wedding next year but wanted to do something just for the two us before then. Pamela ensured everything was taken care of for the ceremony and that our day was special. We didn't have to worry about anything, we got married by the gazebo, drank wine on the porch and ate an outstanding meal prepared by Pamela. Dinner consisted of homemade soup, Sheppard's pie made with lamb, venison and ground pork with twice roasted mashed potatoes on top and for desert we had an apple pie sort of dish with Blue Bell ice cream on top. To die for!! We wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy all the features of the B&B but unfortunately we had to go back to Houston. We will definitely be back for a weekend of R&R soon!! read more

We got married and had our honeymoon here :) The B&B and outdoor areas are absolutely beautiful and Pamela was so friendly and attentive to our needs. Everyday she would leave some kind of treat in our room, as well as deliver breakfast that she made herself (which was always great!). We couldn't have asked for a better place to get married and stay for our honeymoon! Thank you! read more

What a nice and affordable bed and breakfast. We were greeted by the owner on arrival and she made some delicious food. It was quiet and a pretty surrounding. We would definitely stay again and would recommend to others as well. read more

Husband and i decided to take a last minute get away for our anniversary. We were lucky to find anything, but could not have been happier with this place. Everything was great! Spectacular views and a nice quiet setting outside. The room was charming and had one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept on. Lots of privacy, but not too far from town. Just wish we could have stayed longer. read more

My wife and I needed a short, relaxing vacation and chose to visit the Texas hill country during early April to view the bluebonnets and Indian paintbrush, which were spectacular. As experienced travelers, we highly recommend the Garden Room within the Murski Homestead. You probably cannot go wrong with any room, but we can attest to the Garden Room. While convenient to Brenham, the Murski Homestead is quiet and truly relaxing while providing peaceful solitude, beautiful ambiance, and all the necessary conveniences. A delicious breakfast was prepared in advance and carefully saved in the Garden Room's mini refrigerator. We heated quiche in the microwave and thoroughly enjoyed yogurt, fresh blueberries, various homemade breads, orange juice, and coffee under the trellised patio with chirping birds saying, "Good Morning!" Treat yourself - enjoy walking the property, enjoy breakfast on the patio, and relax in nice rocking chairs while enjoying wine & cheese (bring your own) - treat yourself. read more

My girlfriend and I stayed at Murski Homestead on 11/13-15/15 in the Sage Room. What a fabulous place out in the country! Our room was a nice size and the bathroom was also clean and stocked with all the essentials. The electric fireplace was a great feature that we used during our stay too. The bed was very comfortable and we slept great both nights. Pamela and Tom are wonderful! Pamela met us on Friday afternoon and showed us around, gave us a ton of tips on where to eat, what to do, etc. She and Tom are very hospitable and clearly enjoy running this B&B. We ordered the Hot Ranch House Breakfast on Saturday morning and it was delicious, but, there is so much food, we likely could have shared one meal. We were sad we could not finish it, since it was amazing, especially the pear pancake! Breakfast en suite on Sunday was also very good, not your typical breakfast and just the right size for us to get started with our day. The fruit nut bread is also very tasty! I have stayed in a lot of B&B's and in addition to being exactly what I expected per the website and other reviews, the biggest gem of this B&B are the owners, Pamela and Tom. They really care and treat you like an old friend. They were so accommodating and quick to respond to any need. I highly recommend Murski if you are traveling to Brenham or someplace nearby! read more

Such a relaxing weekend. We stayed in the Sage Room and it was perfect. The sheet were extremely soft, bed comfortable, tons of pillows. I love the reading nook in the corner, the electric fireplace, the bath and homemade complimentary liquor. I'm already bragging about this B&B, it was the first my husband had ever stayed at and we might not ever go back to hotels if he thinks they will all be like this one. They had puzzles, board games, cards, a Jacuzzi, horses, donkeys, cows and a beautiful property tons of places to just sit and enjoy the view. The owners are what sold this to us, they are so sweet, gave us recommendations and constantly asking if we needed anything and gave us some extra desserts. Such a sweet couple and Pamela is an AMAZING cook. She would make breakfast the day before and have put it in the refrigerator for us to have whenever we woke up the next day in the comfort of our rooms with fresh fruit and juice. Relaxing escape. Highly recommend. read more
