Delightful Cottage

A beautiful cottage filled with everything you might need. Extra towels, all the kitchen utencils you would ever hope to use, spices in the cupboard, a quart of milk in the frig!! A park-like yard with a table and chairs, perfect for a glass of wine at the end of a busy day. Secluded and private. Enjoy the squirrels and wild turkeys.

Rural peace in the middle of the city

Sally's cottage is an rural oasis in a quiet tree filled neighborhood. Her cottage is very comfortable and has all the elements providing for a short or long term stay. We will definitely plan to stay when we visit relatives in the Arden-Arcade area. We recommend it highly.

Iconic Property

This cottage sits on a 1.5 acre lot detached from Sally's beautiful home. The gardens were just blooming beginning of March with hundreds of different flowers and shrubs, giant Redwoods, 60' tall lined our driveway, Italian cypress, birch trees and palms are interspersed with hedges around the property all maintained weekly by a friendly crew. The entire subdivision is filled with exquisite homes and beautiful yards that made our daily walks, treats, leaving us looking forward to our next outing. The cottage is clean, quiet and the furniture is comfortable, especially the king size bed. The kitchen is well equipped for preparing meals. Sally the owner is a wonderful person and great host. We will try to arrange to stay here in the future when we are visiting the area.

Beautiful Cottage

We enjoyed our stay at this lovely guest cottage! So much nicer than staying in a hotel, and a quick drive to stores and restaurants. It was really clean, inviting, and the decor was great! I could tell that the owners had fun designing it. All the comforts of home, quiet, and tucked away in a beautiful neighborhood. Comfy beds and pillows, a backyard. All the pans/utensils we needed for cooking, a washer and dryer. The coffee was awesome! Nice touches like reading lamps, and clear instructions. Host was gracious and responsive. Even though it is on the same property as the hosts, we were given complete privacy.

Tasteful Country Cottage

We last stayed in this comfortable country cottage six years ago. I have wanted to return for some time so was happy to see that the cottage was still available. I was impressed that the cottage was very clean, comfortable and looks brand new. The neighborhood and setting are in a beautiful neighborhood, right in the heart of the north area. Sally makes the whole process seamless and stress less. I plan to make this a homebase whenever we need to be in Sacramento for more than one day.

Cozy Escape

Everything was so peaceful and comforting. The place is a perfect size for two people trying to escape from a busy city life. The only minor thing that made my stomach flip was the sticky hard residue on the thick yellow blanket for our bed. It was probably just washed up old gum. This was just personal thing, but I’m a paranoid person at night and there are no curtains to cover the windows at the toilet and kitchen-living room windows to prevent someone from looking in. Aside from these small details, our experience here was so blissful. I wish we made some time for a morning stroll to hopefully run into turkeys!

Beautifully simple

My son and I stayed at this beautiful cottage during our visit to Sacramento for a music festival, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The location is ideal with easy access to everything we needed, yet it’s tucked away in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood. The cottage itself was spotless, cozy, and well-stocked with thoughtful touches, including coffee supplies that made our mornings even more enjoyable. We loved the ambiance and felt right at home. This place will definitely be my go-to spot whenever I’m in Sacramento. Highly recommended!

Very Nice Cottage in Great Neighborhood

We wanted a place we could invite some family over for meals we cooked. This cottage was perfect. Very nice layout of one bedroom home. Neighborhood was very quiet and nice homes. I loved having a full kitchen, gas stove, nice big fridge. It worked out very well for us. Host was so nice. We would stay here again, if in Sacramento.

An absolutely beautiful cottage. The beds were super comfortable. All four of us slept so soundly. You could hear a pin drop it was so quiet at night. It was only a 20 minute drive to Folsom Lake where our son was competing at the NorCal CrossFit Games. Hope to stay aT the cottage again next year.
