About this property

Wooded Retreat, Welcome to the Woods! Fun, Games! Destress,Quiet Private Setting

Wooded Retreat is a private studio apartment separate from main house, surrounded by trees and nature. Sitting on your deck you feel as though you in the trees. Watch deer, wild turkeys and rascally squirrels working feverishly gathering pine nuts!! Please feel free to explore the grounds. Walk in the woods, or sit on our man made beach, around the fire pit watching the sunset! Take a nap or read a book from the library on the hammock. Only spaces we prefer you not explore are the garage and main house & deck please and thank you. We have two mountain bikes, and for winter we have two snow sleds ( see pics) available for our guests to use at no extra charge. You must however have a truck or proper restraint system for transporting them. We are approximately 10 min. to Twain Harte, 12 min. to Sonora, 15 min..To Jamestown, Columbia State Park and Airport, 30 min. To Pinecrest Lake and Dodge Ridge Ski Resort depending on weather and road conditions. Phoenix Lake Golf course is a beautiful 9 hole course a very short 1/2 mile from our property, perfect for hitting a quick bucket of balls! We have numerous lakes, hiking/biking trails, and we are approximately 1 hour to the gate of Yosemite National Park.

It was nice and in a quiet wooded area. However, the pillows/bed smelled, and the blankets were not very clean.

Wow! We had a wonderful time staying here as it felt cozy, comfortable and welcoming. What a wonderful host and a peaceful environment that made our short getaway even better! Clean, spacious, well stocked and perfect for the two of us to rest after spending time in Sonora and hiking in the mountains not far away. We would definitely love to visit again.

Grateful for their Service

We went to the retreat and had some unforeseen circumstances come up that we needed to switch our 4 days. When I explained situation she gracious said we could stay 4 days later for our 4 days :). I am so grateful as I did not expect it. Very cute, clean and quiet

Best Mountain Get-A-Way!❤️

Me and my girlfriend had such a wonderful stay at this upstairs cottage. We had access to our own bathroom kitchen and around the property riding the bikes was a blast. We accidentally left our phones in the house and had to ask for the pass key around 2 AM which was unexpected and luckily the homeowner was awake.Sorry guys for waking you! I give our stay a 10+ Plus lots of fun!

Host is very accommodating and we highly recommend this for your get-away. It has all the amenities one would need ( and more than you would need). We would be open to coming back and staying here when we return the this area if the dates are available. Loved it!

I have absolutely nothing but good to say about this stay. It was exactly what my girlfriend and I needed. It truly was a wooded retreat. Very quiet nights and early mornings upon which you could hear wild turkeys outside. Communication was excellent. Everything about this stay was excellent. Everything from ready to use coffee cups, a basket of fresh fruit, and so much more. It was a getaway that my girlfriend and I desperately needed. I would absolutely recommend this property to anyone who wants a quiet place of solitude that’s not too far away from dining, historic parks, and more. It was well worth it.

This was the third time that we stayed here while hiking around the Sonora area. This tells you how peaceful and nice this property is. Didn't see any deer this time. LOL But did see 3 wild turkeys in the morning.

Peaceful Getaway Spot

This studio apartment was perfect for our two night stay in Sonora! Very close to the family we would be visiting! We enjoyed all the thoughtful amenities, such as fresh fruit, chocolate kisses, a secluded balcony and comfy recliners. The place is well-taken care of. Will definitely book again. Thank you.😄

Weekend Getaway

The pictures of the listing are accurate. Really appreciated the added touch of coffee and fruit/oatmeal in the condo. We enjoyed our time and loved seeing deer and wild turkey on the property. It's 45 mins to Murphys and about 30 mins to Dodge ridge. You can go wine tasting and skiing all in a long weekend.

Comfortable and quiet

Unfortunately we weren't able to book more days, but for the time we were able to have the stay here it was great after a long flight. Everything is accurate to the photos. The amenities are plenty and more than we got the opportunity to use. We had a nice dinner at the standard pour not to far from this booking location. I do recommend this restaurant. Thank you for lending your place for other to enjoy.
