Murphys, California – Michael Ninos, proprietor of the Victoria Inn and V Vacation Rentals, is proud to announce the operations and management acquisition of the landmark Dunbar House Inn and Event Property located at the intersection of Jones and Main Streets in the center of the historic Gold Country town of Murphys, known as the Queen of the Sierra. The Dunbar House Inn and Event Property joins the 20-acre Crestview Pond Estate as the second luxury special event property in the extensive inventory of V Vacation Rentals, the majority of which are located on Main Street or are mere yards from Main Street’s boutique shopping, fine dining, and, arguably, the greatest concentration of wine tasting rooms in America.

Both the Dunbar House Inn and Event Property and the Crestview Pond Estate have a few remaining schedule 2019 openings for autumn weddings, charity, community and business association events, and Christmas parties.

Capable of hosting intimate sit-down outdoor special events and weddings for up to 140 people, the lush manicured grounds of the pristine 139-year old Italianate-style Dunbar House features a tree shaded outdoor lawn area on the west side of the property for seated wedding ceremony services while the east side of the property is configured for the seated reception, entertainment and dancing.

The Dunbar House also features the newly renovated 1880 Hall and free-standing Greenhouse meeting rooms and an expansive back property patio area. When the patio area is tented against heat, cold or inclement weather, it bridges the 1880 Hall to the Greenhouse permitting for year-round indoor events for 30 to 100 seated and 120 standing. These areas, individually or combined, can also be rented for an infinite number of more intimate functions, such as corporate board meetings and C-Suite Retreats, business and association functions, seminars and classes, and more.

The extensive full service food catering menu is available from some of the best local caterers, as well as the nearby Victoria Inn’s “V” Bistro, Restaurant and Bar. In-house food preparation can be staged and completed in the Dunbar House’s large kitchen. Additionally, the Dunbar House is fully licensed for beer, wine and full bar service for any event.
