Two twin beds can be strapped together to make a king-size bed if that configuration is more conducive to your needs upon request.

The property has a full regulation tennis court, two pickleball courts, an informal half basketball court, ping pong table, and horseshoe pit.

There are plenty of umbrellas around the pool, comfortable seating, a large dining table, gas fire-pit, pool towels, some pool toys, and floats, including some child-friendly flotation devices.

Depending on the time of year, enjoy multiple varieties of almond, apple, apricot, cherry, grapefruit, lemon, lime, nectarine, orange, peach, pear, persimmon, plum, tangerine, and more! You and your family can pick your own fresh fruit off the tree. You can even take a box home with you. In the summer, you can pick fresh berries to your heart's delight. When our vegetable or herb garden is producing, feel free to pick some fresh produce for one of your meals during your stay. Folsom Lake is only a few minutes down the road from the ranch, and you can rent horses and boats. It's a short drive to old town Auburn if you'd like to experience gold rush history along with fine dining, antique shops, and boutiques. Nearby, there are horse stables, riding trails, wineries, golf courses, whitewater rafting, water-skiing, kayaking, canoeing, fishing, and camping. Lake Tahoe and its nearby ski resorts are just over an hour away, and San Francisco is only a couple of hours away. Note: We do NOT allow any weddings or large events on our property at this time. However, Newcastle Wedding Gardens and Red Horse Barn and The Flower Farm in Loomis are great local venues that several of our guests have used. We can then host any of your guests at our property (like the bride's or groom's family, or even the wedding party), who may need a place to stay - our property is a lot better than staying in a hotel. Guest access Guests have access to: main house, honeymoon cottage, caretake cottage (if rented upon special request), pool house, pool, tennis courts, game garage, garden, and orchard. There is plenty of parking around the property. If guests are staying in main house, they can park up top near the game garage/pool area or in spot near hydrangeas near front porch. If guests are staying in one of the cottages, they can park at the back of the property behind the cottages. Please Note: The cottages are at a slightly lower elevation than the main house, so if anyone has difficulty walking up/down a slight hill, then I suggest they park up on the level ground near the front porch of the main house and stay in the main house. RULE: Please DO NOT BLOCK the driveway that is used to drive back/forth through the property. Leave path clear for emergency/service/property owner's vehicles to come/go if needed. Pull off to the side to park. Other things to note Absolutely NO SMOKING anywhere on the property. If evidence of smoking is proven, then host will keep the entire $500 deposit. Absolutely NO EXCESSIVE NOISE or amplified music outside on property after 10pm. If evidence of neighbor or police complaints after 10pm is proven, then host will keep the entire $500 deposit. Dog Policy: Guest MUST communicate PRIOR to arrival that a dog will be on property and pay the non-refundable pet fee of $200. If this policy is IGNORED, then host will keep the entire $500 deposit.
