Such wonderful hosts, very accommodating when we had to move breakfast up an hour for us and our friends. This property is gorgeous and also has friendly cats roaming around. We had wedding photos taken here and they turned out gorgeous! Love this place!

Loved this B&B. The host was so inviting. The house was beautiful. Bed was comfortable and the room was large. Breakfast was delicious and the story of the house and its furnishings is one I’ll never forget. If you’re hesitant just book it, you won’t regret it.

Beautiful property. Wonderful hospitality. It is a step back into history when guests are graciously received. This is more of an experience than an opportunity for a good night's rest. The morning breakfast is divine. A definite must when you visit Sonora.

We loved our stay. The breakfast was sublime. This is a value for a B&B in an historic location. They even have some outdoor cats and a couple ducks for furred and feather vacation friends.
We'll be back!

Wonderful and beautiful place to stay! Was initially trying to stay at Chicken Ranch but it was all booked so settled here and it was the best decision. Such a great lovely place with beautiful grounds and Rhonda was so amazing and accommodating! Already shared this place with others and will definitely be back again.

This is a unique property. It’s a short walk down the hill to the historic downtown of Sonora. There are large sitting rooms that we were able to use during the day and in the evening. So much more comfortable than a traditional hotel. Wonderful breakfasts included. The furniture and decor are over-the-top late Victorian, but that’s part of the charm.

En upplevelse att minnas! Rent, snyggt, lyxig inredning. Så mycket vackert att se på detta hotell. Superb frukost med en supervärdinna/ägare som visar stort intresse för oss gäster och den magnifika historiska byggnad de förvaltar väl. Kommer gärna tillbaka!
