Generous fridge, hand painted tile floor in the bathroom floor chairs to sit in and watch the world go by. Breakfast was excellent, in the little restaurant. Large property with a creek at the back."

The Ranch at Lake Sonoma

The Ranch at Lake Sonoma

10/10 Excellent
"The hosts were lovely, and the beds super comfy and clean and beautifully presented. It’s not a “glamping” facility however, it’s really camping there’s one single use bathroom and two showers for the whole campsite plus some porta potties, and you should bring food with you to cook at the camp fire as it’s a 15 min drive to nearest shops. We booked last minute, so totally our fault we weren’t prepared/had different expectations. It’s really a camping experience with some glamping tents, not a full glamping experience, which is totally fine, just unexpected! The tents are close to each other, so very family friendly but not much privacy and they give you earplugs. Also the phone number on the website was not working, but when we did find the hosts they were lovely and helped with everything and gave us contact details."
