This is my annual ice climbing group's 3rd year staying here and I have stayed with the Gowdys at other properties several other times, personally. They are amazing hosts and all their properties are great. The Bonnie Rose is a really cool old house, yet comfortable in all the ways you'd want. My client's were STOKED to read about the history of it and had a lot of fun here. The house is well stocked and the newer appliances are fantastic. The Bonnie Rose has become as much of a character on these group trips as any of the participants!
We had a fantastic stay. The house was lovely, clean and filled with character. It had everything we needed and more. The yard is large and fenced in. We all (group of 9) highly recommend it.
We enjoyed our stay at The Bonnie Rose. We were comfortable in all areas of the house; when we needed alone time and then as we gathered for family time.
We were looking for a place to relax and just enjoy some time with family. This property was perfect. Close to everything we needed and things to do. Would definitely stay again.
Jim was fantastic. Reached out early with check in info. He met us upon arrival to give us info on the house, some area history, and some trail suggestions. Was a great host. The house was as advertised, old but updated and very functional. Great location. Can’t really say anything negative.
We had a wonderful stay in Oxnard. The house and property is just as described and pictured. The Primary bedroom and bathroom are amazing! Wait until you try the shower!! The short walk to the beach and grilling on the patio were highlights of our stay. Owners quickly responded to a question we had. We will definitely be back!
This place is wonderful!! We had family stay for our wedding and there was plenty of space and bathrooms. Big backyard for my child and a dog that joined us to run around! We hope to be back again with family :)
Great place to stay! Fun decor. Tons of space for a large group. Were able to easily bring our furry friends. Easy communication. Close to ice park. Would stay again!
We had 11 in our party and there was adequate sleeping arrangements for all of us.
Great property if you are needing something for a large group. The fenced yard was a great place for grandchildren and adults to hang out when we weren’t out exploring. The property was very well stocked with essentials.

Great having the Whitworth family stay at The Bonnie Rose! Very resprctful to the home and exceptionally responsive and easy to communicate with. Would love to have you back someday!
Wonderful historical house, high ceilings, more than enough room for our 10 people & our vehicles with trailered ATV’s. We enjoyed the outdoor fire pit every night after our rides. Lake City has old town charm & trail head access from town. If we make it back, again, we will definitely look to the Bonnie Rose.

Great stay here. Owner helpful and responsive (goes above and beyond). House well appointed, had everything we needed. We rode the alpine loop on atv/ dirt bikes and stayed overnight here. Great location, within walking distance to restaurant for supper. Would highly recommend. Thank you for a wonderful stay! Hope to be back next year.
We had a great time while we was in Lake City. This was our first time in the area and we loved being there. The property was great! Jim had great communication about any questions we had. It was clean and comfortable couldn't have asked for a better place to stay while we was there. I hope that we can come back again next year!!
Beautifully restored historical house with an amazing family history. Spacious enough for a large family with comfortable beds and plenty of room and large, well-equipped kitchen. Large fenced yard for pets, outside eating and firepit. The Gowdys are super friendly and accommodating as are their son and daughter-in-law who own the High Altitude Adventures.
They will definitely be our go-to for future visits.
Thank- you, Gowdys for an amazing family vacations!
Our stay was just as expected. An older home with lots of history. Jim was a fantastic host and was great at communicating and fixed a leaky shower ASAP! We had plenty of room for our family. It was a quick walk downtown and a there is a school with a fabulous park (and basketball court) across the street. A great stay, we will likely return.
This home was large enough for our family and was centrally locacted in town. This allowed a short walk in town to see the sights. We had deer in the yard an outdoor fire pit and great views. We would highly recommend this property. Jim was wonderful! He was friendly and easy to contact. The property was very well stocked with the daily needed items!
Was in town with extended family for a funeral, so large age range of people. We booked this house due to the size and number of bedrooms. The house had everything we needed. From high chair, to cooking items, plenty of coffee, towels, everything. Jim communicated well and the check in and out were flawless. The house is decorated very unique to showcase its history. We enjoyed the outdoor fire pit and even had a bear cruise by. The yard is very large and fenced in so the dogs could roam.
We highly recommend this place and Gowdy properties as a whole. We will for sure stay here again. I’ve been coming to lake city since I was a kid and so happy we found this place for future stays.
