This place is amazing and the hosts are just as amazing. We had the place to ourselves and Rhonda and Fred were such a pleasure to speak too. The food was professionally exquisite. The history of the house is so educational and to think we stayed where some great Americans of the past stayed. We did a side trip to Colombia and it was free and fun. Don’t miss a chance to stay here.

A unique property lovingly restored by the present owners. The house is absolutely packed with charming knick-nacks and antiques collected over the years and used to bring back to life what was a modern wealthy family home of the past century. Comfortable beds, delightful bathrooms and living/reading rooms available for guests with snacks and coffee at all times. Absolutely delicious gourmet breakfast....plan to skip lunch! Thank-you Rhonda!

Such a unique experience with every little detail considered. The breakfast was out of this world - two courses including poached pear with vanilla cream to start with. And the beds were super comfortable so we slept very well. Everything was very clean too.

There was truly a magic that was wonderful throughout our visit. Some much to see and take in throughout the rooms and history. The high points were the breakfasts and visiting with the owner. With the seasonal decorations, we will look forward to a winter, spring and summer visit.

Nothing less than 5 stars for this wonderful place. The ambience, the food, the charming owner, Rhonda Bess, make this a very special place and well worth experiencing for a romantic anniversary or date or just a get away with friends.

Absolutely wonderful experience. An amazing piece of history and attentive host. Breakfast was an art piece. Would highly recommend. Cool Rolls Royce in parking lot a bonus! Walking distance to downtown Sonora and 3 mile drive to historic Columbia. Make sure to visit Ironstone Winery up in Murphy’s.

I’ve traveled a good bit of the world, and this is one of the loveliest hotels I’ve ever stayed in. The furnishings, upstairs and down, are magnificent with enormous attention to detail. Stayed in the Earl Warren room (I’m a retired lawyer!), with lots of light and gorgeous deep red walls. Breakfast, thanks to Rhonda, are delicious, over-abundant, and beautifully presented. Perfect place. Would certainly stay again if in or near Sonora.

So I rarely write reviews. But I have stayed in many upscale lodgings and I am not exaggerating when I (and other reviewers) say that we would give 10 stars if we could! This is clearly, clearly a labor of love and it shows in every single detail. This place is a gem. Rhonda has a gift for intimate design and cooking! Our breakfast was honestly the best meal we have ever had on a trip. I could go on and on. If you are looking for a quiet, intimate setting, you will absolutely not be disappointed. I've stayed in many places that were twice the price at a tenth of the value. And if you are an animal-lover, friendly dogs, cats and ducks (outside!) will keep your (and animal-loving kids) occupied. I have nothing negative to say. If you want a break from the resort-type atmosphere, stay here. As many days as possible. You will not be disappointed.
