Casita in the redwoods
Paula and I truly enjoyed our stay at Pilar and Chris’ casita at the summit of Mt. Madonna. Such a beautiful and peaceful setting. Our hosts paid attention to every detail and treated us in every way how they would want to be treated. We are already talking about a return visit later this year.

Exceeded my expectations. The place was beautifully decorated, clean, and the hosts were incredibly welcoming. They left us wine, snacks, and a handwritten note welcoming us into the casita. Nothing but good vibes. Will stay there again on future trips to the area.
