Murphys, CA | Calaveras County Gold Rush Wine Country

Your Bail Bond Agency for Murphys and the Wine Country

Murphys is one of the most historically significant and actively visited communities in Calaveras County. Located along Main Street on what was once a major Gold Rush supply route, Murphys today is known for its wine tasting rooms, boutique shops, Victorian-era architecture, and proximity to attractions including Mercer Caverns and Moaning Cavern. The town draws substantial weekend and tourist traffic throughout the year.

With wine country tourism comes a higher-than-average rate of DUI arrests. The Calaveras County Sheriff and the California Highway Patrol patrol the Murphys area and the surrounding roads, including Murphys Grade Road, Sheep Ranch Road, and the Dunbar Road corridor. All arrests in Murphys and the surrounding communities of Avery, Vallecito, and Douglas Flat are transported to the Calaveras County Adult Detention Facility in San Andreas for booking.
