GiancarloRating, 5 stars1 week ago

This place was absolutely beautiful, kind of tricky to arrive but javi provides step by step directions on arriving which was absolutely helpful. The pictures do absolutely no justice for how amazing this place is. Javi was also very lenient and open to hearing out my concerns/ideas. I would definitely recommend and come back a million times.

Sonora School House Cottage

PaulaRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Where do I start. I'll start with.. the Schoolhouse was one of our favorite Airbnbs. It was home for six weeks and was the coziest Airbnb I've ever had the pleasure of staying in. Serene and quiet with wildlife just outside the French doors in the bedroom through which natural light filled the room. The decor was warm and inviting. The photos don't do justice to the home. We had everything needed. The kitchen was spacious with modern appliances, including a dishwasher, plenty of cooking utensils, cookware and dinnerware. It has everything you need, whether it's a long or short-term stay. Lorna was kind and helped with anything needed. She was patient when our packages were left at her home and insisted she bring them, so I didn't have to walk uphill to her home. (Thank you!) We've traveled full time for 5 years. Normally, I'm excited for the next move, but this time, I did not want to leave the Schoolhouse. Thank you for the beautiful home and care received while there.

Home in Twain Harte

Chalet Boisé: Secluded, Peaceful & Renovated!

EricRating, 5 stars1 month ago

My wife and I loved our stay here!! The interior was beautifully decorated and filled with high end items from the comforters and pillows to the kitchen knives and cookware. It made our stay feel luxurious up in the mountains. Then, the whole reason we chose this cabin, the wood-fired hot tub was an absolute delight and has ruined all other hot tubs for us. Nothing like hearing the fire crackling as it heats up the water for you. We loved the abundance of towels, the old CRT tv upstairs (we brought our N64), and the overall cozy feel of the cabin. There are some houses nearby, but most are hidden from view and you still feel very secluded. Well worth the 8hr trip for this beautiful place.

A charming Victorian-style home is featured, with a white exterior and classic architecture. Delicate pink flowers are in the foreground, adding a soft touch to the outdoor landscape. Stairs lead up to an inviting porch area, bathed in natural light from the clear blue sky.
