Lovely home!
We had a very relaxing stay, even though we were visiting for grandfathers funeral we had a nice time, wasn’t far from great restaurants and places to visit, the house was clean and came with coffee and wine, if we are ever back in town we would love to stay here again.

A Beautiful Countryside Setting
The property is simply gorgeous. When meeting the "caretaker," we were also met with deer nearby. We had a beautiful scenic drive to the property.

Exceeded our expectations!
What an absolutely beautiful property. We loved that it was a separate building from the main house. It had the charm of a cozy vacation home with all the important amenities that are expected from a hotel such as fresh coffee, an ironing board, soaps, lotions, luggage stands, towels, etc. The deer, squirrels, and woodpeckers were fun to watch while sipping on morning coffee! Phoebe and TK were very welcoming and it was so thoughtful for them to have a bottle of wine waiting for us as well as a pack n play for our 10 month old. Our only surprise (and this was on us!) was that it was a lot further away from our destination than we expected. We were in town for a family event in Coloma, about 40 minutes away. This property is rural, in the hills up a windy road. So just keep that in mind with your planning - it's a bit of a drive into the nearest town for groceries and other essentials. We would 100% stay here again - it would have been wonderful if we had booked an extra day so we could have really explored the surrounding scenery!!

What a heavenly stay!
We rented this for our 8th wedding anniversary, and could not be more pleased with our stay. My wife wanted to get away, see some fall foliage and do some apple picking. We were more successful with the latter than the former - I think we were about a week early on the foliage. Bonus though was all the animals we saw - from woodpeckers to squirrels, to wild turkeys to quails, and a tremendous number of deer of all sizes - big antlered bucks to babies. My wife was in heaven. The hosts generously provided us with a lovely bottle of Zinfandel wine, worried about us when we arrived much later than we expected and were responsive to all communications. They could not have been better hosts. The home was spotless and a joy to relax in. We hope to get back there soon.
