Very nice house and location.

The house was very cute. We enjoyed sitting next to the fire stove that kept the house warm and cozy in the evening. Very well located in downtown Sonora- only blocks away from the Main Street.

We enjoyed sitting in front of the fireplace. Very cozy. Illness kept us at the house and it was comfortable enough. The beds were fine but I feel the pillows could really use an upgrade. The host was very responsive and accommodating. The house was spotless. Plenty of dishes and vases and pots and pans if you feel like cooking. We would stay there again for another visit with family. Very convenient to downtown Sonora with a grocery store two blocks away.
