Alternatively you can hike into the woods from the airstream and be at the visitor center in about 30 minutes for free! This airstream is nestled into a corner of our 1+ acre property. It is a private and special retreat! For most of the year, we are blessed with perfect Northern California weather. Cool mornings and evenings and warm and pleasant mid day and afternoon temps. Our guest home is located in the “banana belt’ of the Panoramic neighborhood. Often the fog can be blowing heavily on other parts of the mountain but once you turn onto our street you may be drenched in sun. It's a secret! And it is pretty amazing!
