Private Studio in the middle of a 750 acres working Cattle Ranch The space Private studio with dedicated entrance. Spend the night nestled in the middle of a working cattle ranch in Valley Springs! By day, hike the rolling hills of the vast 750 acres ranch. Observe a wide variety of bird and wildlife, check out the abandoned gold mines on the property, and catch a glimpse of Mark Twain's famous jumping frog if you're lucky (the ranch is a designated habitat). Nearby, soak up the sun at multiple recreational lakes, hit the surrounding trails for a little more activity, or go shopping in some of the cute nearby towns. Come evening, unwind with a stunning view of the milky way in the open night sky. Studio has a queen size bed, desk area, and seating nook. TV with Netflix, Wi-Fi, and boardgame corner included (though we think the night sky beats any movie). Modern bathroom with a large rain-shower. No kitchen but coffee bar stocked with toaster, microwave, and mini fridge. You are also welcome to use the BBQ. All necessities to welcome young kids. Notes: this is second story studio with sloped ceiling. Watch your head in the corners. The ranch has two working dogs who are friendly if your pets are. -- THE LOCATION -- LAKE DAYS: Pardee Lake (5.1 miles), New Hogan Lake (7.2 miles), Camanche Reservoir (7.7 miles), Lake Amador (12.5 miles) SCENIC HIKES: Camp Seco Trailhead (2.6 miles), Rich Gulch Trail (5.5 miles), Acorn Recreation Area (7.1 miles), Monte Vista Day Use Area (8.7 miles), River of Skulls Trail (8.9 miles) AREA ATTRACTIONS: Renegade Winery (8.6 miles), Harrah’s Northern California (10.6 miles), Kennedy Gold Mine Tours (17.5 miles), California Cavern State Historic Landmark (25.4 miles), Angels Camp Museum (25.4 miles), Black Chasm Cavern National Natural Landmark (27.0 miles) AIRPORTS: Stockton Metropolitan Airport (41.5 miles), Sacramento International Airport (70.9 miles) Guest access Please let me know upfront but in principle you are allowed to hike my vast ranch.
