"It’s a very nice and cozy house in a quiet location. We saw deer walking around everyday. The owner replies message every quickly. No gap in communication. Everything is new, clean and well prepared. The house is decorated with all Christmas elements, even prepared a box for kids to make their own Christmas tree decorations. It’s about 40min driving distance to Dodge Ridge Ski resort. 15min to Twain Harte Grocery Market. Overall highly recommended."

"We chose to stay here for an early Christmas gathering with our family. The children loved that they were able to have their own space. Everybody had a wonderful experience here, especially being able to be around the forest and mountains. The cabin had a fully equipped kitchen, with all the necessary appliances, utilities, pots, pans, and even some seasoning. The five rooms had plenty of blankets and pillows. The bathrooms were stocked up with the necessary items such as, towels, shampoo and...

"Very cozy and spacious. It easily sleeps 8 people. The host was very nice and easy to communicate. He would keep us posted with the weather and instructions for the house. He let us check in and out without any time restrictions. The place is just 20 min drive from the dodge ridge ski resort. The place was very tidy and clean with the exception of the fridge and the microwave. I would strongly recommend it to stay. "

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast is sublime and the property is spectacular "

Best Western Plus Sonora Oaks Hotel & Conference Center

6/10 Okay

"Since we were on the bottom floor the guests above us were being very disrespectful and disruptive as we were all in bed ready to sleep at 10 pm with little children after a long day being out playing in the snow. I wouldn’t recommend staying on the first floor especially if the walking noise back and forth bother you bc it was loud and bothered us. We called the front desk 2x and the guests above never answered their calls just to show what type of people they are. Eventually they went to bed but it was like 2 hours later and the front desk staff didn’t do much to fix the problem. Everything else was ok. "
