We were very excited to each have our own rooms with attached bathrooms, and felt like QUEENS... I personally was in Room #6 upstairs with a cute little balcony. The bed was so luxurious and ridiculously comfortable that it made it really hard to get out of bed and face the day (side note: they are clearly brand-new beds and incorrectly spoken about on that negative review, so take that one with a grain of salt, SMH); Some had deep jetted tubs, some had ADA walk-in showers, something to accommodate everyone's needs! Each bathroom even had extra amenities you wouldn't expect like make-up remover and cotton balls - such a nice touch! One thing I was worried about was the traffic noise at night, but it was not an issue at all, which just shows that the insulation renovations that were completed really were impeccable and every last comfort was thought of for their guests. Access to the kitchen and laundry facilities was also a huge plus as well for last minute weather needs! I highly recommend this gem in Sonoma County when you book your next wine country adventure! =)

The host was very responsive to our messages, which we greatly appreciate. Unfortunately there were the good thing stopped. The bathroom in our room wasn't clean. There was hair all over the floor and in the shower drain. There were spiders and dead ants in the bath/shower area and random trash left on the room. The road noise made sleeping almost impossible except during the wee hours of the morning. The room itself is probably 30 feet from a major 4-lane road with heavy traffic. Overall for the price I was very disappointed in the state of the room itself more than anything. To the host's credit they had someone come clean the room while we were out for the day, which was much appreciated. If the property was quieter I'd probably give it another shot but the combo of issues really killed our stay.

For our family, spending $200 to $250 a night is not a casual decision. We're not a wealthy family, so when we spend that kind of money, we're looking for a place where everyone can relax and feel like it was worth it. Usually that gets us a hotel room with two beds, a pool, and maybe a hot tub. This place is on a completely different level. The setting is absolutely gorgeous, with acres of land to explore, hiking trails, bike trails, and enough space that you can actually breathe. The kids loved the mini golf, the fire pits with wood provided, the swimming pool, and the free bikes. Our accommodations felt more like a little apartment than a hotel room. We had two bedrooms, a hot plate, a refrigerator, and all the kitchen supplies we needed. It made the whole stay easy and comfortable. The atmosphere is relaxed, welcoming, and family-friendly without feeling chaotic. The service was equally impressive. Everyone we interacted with was kind, generous, and genuinely seemed happy to help. We spent Father's Day here, and something rare happened: everybody got what they wanted. The kids had the freedom to explore and have their own adventures, and I had the chance to rest, recharge, and join in whenever I wanted. Nobody was bored. Nobody was frustrated. We were all happy. That's a pretty remarkable thing. Take your family, take your friends, take your company to Mandala. It's amazing

Country Fields - Country Quiet - Country Nights - Country Simple…read more The stay at Rancho de la Fuente set the stage for our visit to Lake County. For those who appreciate an agritourism (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agritourism) getaway from the Bay Area, this is the place for you! Surrounded by 42 acres of open corn fields, sunflowers, tomatoes, watermelons, and other organic vegetables, you'll appreciate simpler, natural times. We stayed in the spacious Rock n Roll cottage. Inspired by our cottage theme, we played our favorite music during the days (without the fear of disturbing anyone) and enjoyed stargazing on our private porch at night. The room was well cleaned every day and supplied with ample towels for our days on the lake. The terrific hosts (R and F) kept the main house open for us to use the kitchen, access to free drinks and fruits, and access to Internet (I strongly urge you to stay off-line as long as possible). True to country hospitality, when we found a lack of venues for dinner, they invited us to a gracious family dinner. Many thanks for welcoming us into your family and home. Treat yourself to simple pleasures - spend the day swimming in the local watering holes, spend the evening enjoying wine at the vineyards, curl up with a John Steinbeck novel on the porch and welcome the starry night sky at the Rancho de la Fuente!

I made good use of the fridge and counter and there was plenty of room for the games we played, seating, and had fun dancing to the dj. Didn't have to worry about much. Bathrooms worked well and that was important to me. I didn't have any problems communicating with setting up prior to the event It held 80 people easy and the yard was well kept and nice for the potato sac game we played, and the corn hole game. I've booked another holiday party for next year and would highly recommed this place for my friends and family to do their gatherings. Four out of 5 stars because the parking was a bit confusing to.figure out. Plenty of space, but not lined so I needed to get some cones and figure it out (likely cause I overlooked this part and didnt ask..lol).

I had an event on April 26th for my baby shower. I met with Kristen who is the new event…read morecoordinator here, when meeting her she stated how she just took over this space since it transitioned from a church to an event space. I had planned this event since the beginning of the year. We were asked to give a deposit to reserve the date, she was late and had forgot so we had waited for her to arrive even after rescheduling from the original date. During the time between I had asked to confirm how many tables, how many chairs, how long were the tables. Which I was told there was 10 tables and seat 60 people which was perfect because that's capacity I was expecting for my event. When asked to confirm the table length I was told she was going to check the next day and then I heard nothing from her for two days. I reached out again where she gave me excuses that her husband had doctor's appointments and what not. I did not care, just needed the information for decoration purposes. The week of my event she asked me to call her regarding the payment (I had her on speaker with my partner in the car listening) I said I could meet at 7 and she said she goes into work at 3am and goes to bed at 7pm. I told her well if that doesn't work that I can zelle her which she was ok with (she never once stated anything about a walk through). The day of my event a few days later my partner arrives at 12pm and sends me a message saying we're going to need more chairs, my response was why she stated she had 60 chairs. He's telling me there was on 30 chairs available. Mind you this is the hour before my event which was to start at 1pm (she does not give you time for setup or breakdown of you event you have to pay for additional hours). I asked to speak to her she said she doesn't recall us talking about chairs just about how many tables and that there are only 30 chairs available, I told her she said there was 60 chairs 6 chairs per table she goes on and says to let her call the owner and see if he took any chairs. I arrive at the location she tells that the owner removed some broken chairs and I told her now I have to find remaining chairs in the hour I have to set up for my baby shower and pay out of pocket she said that's why she "wanted to do a walk through" when collecting final payment which was another lie because she never stated a walk through. I asked her if she is going to remove what I'm going to have to pay out of pocket from what I paid her for the event space, she said no. She started getting a bad attitude and extremely rude in front of my decorator and family saying that if I'm not happy that the owner said I can take my event somewhere else. Like wtf?! So unprofessional! I told her it's not personal it's business and you stated there was 60 chairs and now because you can't remember it's my fault and you have the nerve to tell me at 8 months pregnant with 1 hour to set up my event that I could take it somewhere else after I already paid you and gave you deposit?!!!!!!!! She lingered around for the 30mins and had the nerve to ask me if I need help finding chairs I told her I had it handled so she could leave and out of my face! Her own husband was telling her to be quiet after what she said to me. I do NOT wish that unprofessionalism on anyone's event and hope you don't bring her any business! She will learn as a new event coordinator and the owner as well that is NOT how you treat nor talk someone that has already paid you for a service. I kept quiet until she sent me my deposit back and I am warning all of you of my experience with Kristen. FYI: if your going to run a business your schedule needs to work with others schedule you can't expect everyone to be available when you want them to be just because you work at 3am it's called sacrifice and clearly you can't do that for the sake of the business
