We've enjoyed our stay here very much. The house is clean, spacious and quite comfortable! Also, it is within a few minutes drive from the many local wineries. Some very good restaurants nearby too. We personally love the "Goldmine Grill." Would recommend it to friends.

We've stayed at the house 2 times and have thoroughly enjoyed the house and it's central location to all the wineries in the area. We make a annual trip to the wineries and will plan on staying here when we come. We would recommend a stay to anyone planning on visiting this area.

We had a great time at this property. It was homey and also away from it all. It was equiped with everything we needed. There is also so much to do in the area. We loved visiting the alpacas, wine tasting, hiking, and swimming in the river. We hope to visit again soon!

Stayed at The Perry Creek Retreat in August with a group of six nurses. This was my second stay at the Retreat. It was a wonderful base from which to explore all the wonderful wineries of Fair Play. I highly recommend Cammy and Michael's place. They are very accommodating and have stocked their house with not just the basics, but much in addition to that as well.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, sightseeing, girls getaway, age 55+.
We keep coming back!

I have rented this hospitable home many times (and will be doing so at least twice this year 2012). The owners keep it well supplied and very clean. The interior is spacious and there's plenty of outdoor room as well. The kitchen with its food preparation island is roomy and well-stocked. It has up to date appliances and a counter separating it from the dining area. We've also enjoyed cooking on the outdoor grill and, on warm days and nights eating, in the patio. There's a horseshoe pit and a small but adequate pool. The area is quiet and safe. And, in addition to all of this, Perry Creek Retreat is in the heart of one of California's great wine-making areas and a short drive from Sly Lake Park. We love it!
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, people with disabilities, age 55+, families with young children.
