Great home for my yoga retreat

I originally chose this property because it had a built-in yoga room, and the actual place is much better than the pics. All my guests were very happy with their rooms and food my chef provided. Hot tub and nearby creek were amazing options to cool off, check-in process with the owner was very thorough. Happy to have hosted a successful event at this location!

Great family get-together

This is a cross between the owner's home and a retreat center. There are many touches which make it feel like home and yet the huge table in the dining room, the three refrigerators, and institutionally provisioned kitchen feel more like what you might find at a summer camp. This served us (11 family, from age 16-96) well as we cooked feasts with ease. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. We did not make use of the hot tub (too far from the house for easy access), used the giant rec room as a workout space, and did not come close to using all the beds avaialable. There were a few glitches (power went out briefly, audio system needed some tweaking, some of the kitchen ware needed cleaning before use) but overall we were quite pleased. And the location could not be beat.

Awesome place for big

Lots of space and definitely has a character. We really enjoyed our time there. It was too hot inside during afternoon though, we went beginning of Sept. But overall it is a fantastic place for big gatherings/reunions.

Magical!

Shambhala Ranch is such a special place. We had an absolutely lovely time here and the amenities were perfect. The owners were super sweet and made check-in and check-out a breeze. They were available right on the property for anything we needed. The house is huge and had lots of different areas for hanging out, so even with 20 people, there was ample space. Make sure to bring enough ice and stuff for the weekend, town is pretty far but we really appreciated the remote location, it was very peaceful and there were lots of birds and deer. The river is just a short walk away where there is a beautiful little stream with waterfalls and swimming holes. It was like a perfect little oasis. We'll definitely be back!

Great place for a family reunion

Our extended family of 20 stayed here in August, 2013, for a family reunion. Family members came from all over the country, ages 3 through 67. The drive from SF airport is reasonable, and the scenery along the way beautiful. The house was in great condition, plenty of room and enough bathrooms, so we didn't feel crowded. The spacious kitchen was well equipped, and one of our main gathering places. The deck and garden were favorite places for group dinners. We swam in the pond and explored along the creek, took walks along the fields and made day trips to the coast and the nearby redwood preserve. We had a fantastic time, and the owners were very friendly, available, and accommodating. Would recommend this to anyone who wants a peaceful and beautiful venue for a reunion, retreat, or wedding.
