Spectacular View

Elizabeth and her husband are very gracious host, who ensure you have a wonderful stay. They checked in with us to make sure everything was fine and if we needed anything. She is very responsive. The view of the American River is spectacular. The house is in a quiet neighbor and it was a very relaxing stay. It is a large 4 bedroom with a lot of space. I would definitely stay there again.

A beautiful place for a relaxing reunion with old friends

We were 5 70+ year olds, who have been friends since college. We were looking for a centrally located place to stay and this house fit the bill beautifully. It was a short trip to Fair Oaks Village, where we spent a pleasant morning and made some great bargain finds at French in the Village. We love to cook and the kitchen and two dining tables were very user friendly and offered great river views. The house was very peaceful and we were very comfortable in the large bedrooms and bathrooms.

Nice property, nice location

Very nice property that worked great for our group of 8. Only issue we had was with some of the appliances (difficulty in getting the oven to work, stove starter kept kicking after it was lit). Otherwise great experience. Hosts communicated well and check in was easy.

Exquisite Views

A group of our friends and family stayed at this home for three nights. The neighborhood is beautiful and quiet. The house was very clean, comfortable and well-equipped. The listing mentions a view and honestly, it was even more gorgeous than I expected. The backyard and upper deck have sweeping views of the Sacramento River. It's a very peaceful location. The host was easy to contact and went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. We were in town for a marathon and, on our arrival, found a small gift basket with runner's supplies! It was such a sweet and thoughtful touch. We would absolutely stay here again.

Lovely and peaceful

We are a group of old college friends in town for a memorial service. The home is lovely, spacious and peaceful in a tranquil setting with calming river rapids in the distance. Our hosts could not have been kinder and more helpful. Highly recommended and we will stay here again when visiting our college friend in Fair Oaks.

Beautiful Private Retreat

We stayed in this beautiful, large, home for three nights! This home is tucked away in such a unique and private area. Everything was exactly as described but even better. The beds were very comfortable and the bedding was wonderful! The house was extremely clean, the soaps and shampoos were great. The yard was gorgeous and the views were so pretty. There were five of us and we all would love to stay here again. Thank you Elizabeth for sharing your home with us.

Gorgeous home in stunning natural setting!

The home was large, comfortable, and well-appointed; we had more than enough room for our family and the host provided everything we needed. The location is wonderful and the grounds are absolutely stunning; we especially enjoyed relaxing in the yard with the soothing sound of American River rapids in the background. The host is a wonderful communicator and is extremely thoughtful. Thank you for sharing your slice of paradise with us!

Family Visit

Our family was very comfortable in Elizabeth’s home. There was plenty of space for everyone to spread out, but also gather to catch up and hang together. The back yard and porch swing were big hits. Elizabeth was great and very easy to communicate with before and during our stay. Would highly recommend this home as your home away from home. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. Thank you Elizabeth!
