About this property

Serene and Quiet County Cottage Near HWY 50

Welcome to our secret Shangri La of the Sierras! This studio guest house is on our private 1 acre property. We live in the main house. The guest house has its own private entrance and fenced in yard. This natural setting is peaceful yet close to everything you need. 7 minutes from HWY 50. Free range chickens and bunnies on main property. Not a good place for loud noise or partying but a calm quiet place to hide and restore yourself. Please note we do not offer bookings over 29 days. Thanks so much and safe travels!

Yes very welcoming. We thought the furniture was very uncomfortable. Had to leave a day early because of the weather system coming in. We really only slept there.

Beautifully furnished interior; convenient amenities; very charming. The owner spent time and attention to details was obvious. iPhone chargers, CD’s, etc. Felt completely at home, without the impersonal atmosphere of a hotel, at the same price.

Getaway Cottage

This great little cottage style home was perfect for our purposes as we awaited the completion of our home construction. It’s also a perfect stay for those who are looking for a peaceful location which has the feeling of remoteness yet close to many great locations and activities.

Property was exactly as described and was a very private little cottage. Sarah was super communicative, and made our stay very enjoyable. The space provided us ample room and was much more enjoyable than a hotel. Would stay again!
