Even Better than anticipated
The property was great for our group of five. Although the house could accommodate more. The interior pictures don't do this house justice. The bedrooms and bathrooms are all very nice. The back deck is gigantic. Although the property is near a main road, you dont hear cars and if you go for a walk the opposite way, you rarely see any cars on the road and its beautiful walk through Vineyards and rolling hills. Since i was the one who made the reservation, I got lots of compliments on my choice.

Adorable Farmhouse!
We were in town for our daughter’s wedding and this was one of the high points! The house is adorable and every detail was considered. Beautiful property and a wrap around deck to relax on. Right in the heart of wine country so we didn’t have to travel far to each winery. We will definitely be back!

Amazing property
Everything about this farmhouse is lovely! My friend of 50 years and her husband met my hubby and me for a long weekend of catching up and wine tasting. The house is perfect for 2 or 3 couples as each room has en-suite bathrooms and comfortable beds as well as walk in showers in each bathroom. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking supplies and a few spices and snacks as well as a coffee maker that does pots of coffee or kcups. We cooked all of our meals there as Amador has limited dining out options. It was rainy and cold this weekend but we were cozy and warm and had a fantastic time. My only suggestions to the owners would be to get rid of the Murphy bed in the downstairs bedroom closet as there was nowhere to hang clothes and maybe consider small dressers. We struggled with where to put our clothes when we unpacked. Also the heat stove in the downstairs bedroom was out of order and it would have been helpful this weekend due to the low temperature. We will definitely come back. We loved the house!

Beautiful and peaceful retreat
We joined two other couples for a relaxing getaway at this charming home. The kitchen is full of light and every item you could hope to find in a VRBO. Each bedroom had its own bathroom plus there was a half bath off the living area. It was rainy and cozy while we were there, but the grounds and patio would be very enjoyable in nicer weather. It is surrounded by some amazing wineries and beautiful countryside.

The farmhouse was clean, attractive, well stocked, relaxing, comfortable, and the host/hostess very personable. Kitchen has everything you need. Lots of dishes, cookware, bakeware, cutlery, and condiments to help prepare meals. We only stayed 2 nights but would have liked to been there longer. The fire pit outside was a bonus.

Outstandingly cozy
When we first looked at the online photo of the Farmhouse it looked kind of simple. It was simply wonderful! The large farm house was built in the mid 1800s and was completely renovated a few years ago. All the systems (water, power, gas, TV, wifi) worked perfectly. The house is very cozy and clean. Each bedroom has its own bathroom, plus an extra bathroom downstairs. Of the 3 vineyard houses we have stayed in over the past 4 years,this one was the best, as well as the most reasonable in price. We're coming back!

Wedding attendees at The Ranch at Stoney Creek
Our stay at the Farmhouse was one of the highlights this past weekend while attending a wedding. The property is so incredibly charming and hosts Dan & Cheryl provided all amenities for our party of 8. Location for the venue was an easy 18 minute drive and just a stone’s throw from numerous wineries. Other wedding attendees who rented from different VRBO listings had stopped by and exclaimed how much better the Farmhouse was. Thank you, Dan & Cheryl. Your attention to detail and the meticulous care of your home was so appreciated.

Amador Farmhouse
Our group of three couples gathered at the farmhouse for a fun weekend of wine tasting. The owners, Cheryl and Dan, went out of their way to make sure the property was perfect for our stay. They made sure there was extra propane on site for the bbq, outdoor heater, and outdoor fire place. All of the outdoor furniture was wiped clean, which we appreciated as we arrived after a series of winter storms. They also left a basket of goodies and a bottle of their Vera Family made wine! Cheryl was a text away if I needed her. The sunrises and sunsets from the wrap around porch were memorable for all in our group. The house provided us a much needed restful weekend in wine country. Big thanks to Cheryl and Dan—Lisa

There were 6 senior adult couples who are good friends. We came from the bay area - 2.5 hours easy driving. The house was equipped with absolutely every item you could need, down to both artificial and real candles. The 3 en-suites were a real treat and each had separate heating! The bathrooms were huge, towels luxurious, and beds firm. The Farmhouse is perfectly decorated. We would definitely stay again. You will love this home! We stayed three nights and visited the caves along with the towns of Sutter Creek and Jackson.

As a native Californian and an appreciation for the Gold Country and wine, The Shenandoah Valley was the ultimate choice to come "Home for Christmas". The Amador Farmhouse is beautiful, charming and has everything one could want or need for a wonderful vacation. Dan and Cheryl were super accommodating and their communication was on point. They had even decorated the farmhouse for the holidays which made our stay even better! We will most definitely book another vacation there and highly recommend ! The Morenos

Perfect Stay - 3 nights July 2020
Have visited Amador County several times per year for the last 7-8 years. This time brought friends whom had never been to the area and we wanted a house for evening cooking, games, socializing and visiting for the 5 of us. Have never traveled with these friends before, so privacy and convenience were key. We wanted to show them the best of the region! There are several outstanding things about this home to note: 1. Built in late 1800's - historic, but updated for modern conveniences. Kitchen and bathrooms were outstanding - showers were rainfall with great water pressure, all white towels - as nice as a fine hotel or B&B. 2. All 3 bedrooms have their own separate bathroom. Downstairs master is king bed (with an additional same room murphy bed if needed). Linens are nice quality, king bed was firm yet very comfortable. Upstairs 2 queen bedrooms with private full baths - claw foot tubs and separate modern large showers in each. Our friends stayed upstairs and said the beds were comfortable, the house quiet and private. All the bedrooms have ceiling fans which is a nice feature. 3. Kitchen - well stocked with everything you need to cook - we had some foodies in our group: we grilled, broiled, microwaved - everything you need - blender, dishwasher, even basic staples like olive oil, spices, aluminum foil. Ice maker in freezer. There was NOTHING we were without. 4. Location! If you are wine touring Amador County, this house is smack dab in the middle of the primary and best wineries. It was a hot weekend (100 degrees) and the proximity was key - we would buy wine and having passed the house several times between wineries, could drop off the wine at the house so we didn't have it sitting boiling in a hot car in the heat this was convenient! 5. The owners - Cheryl and Dan. Exceptional people. We learned at several wineries that they are well known in the area and support the community. It was nice to hear how well-liked they are. The Owners are meticulous, but easy going, and not intrusive whatsoever. There is a natural artesian well that runs under the house and pumps out into the back of the 1 acre property, else it would flood the basement, I was told. However, it did draw little "gnats" to the BACK of house, so be sure to keep the back kitchen door closed at dusk and later-NOT biting bugs, tiny, just a little pesky. Evenings spent on FRONT porch in rocking and adirondack chairs was exceptional.

Hi Susan, thank you for the outstanding review. OMG you should be our marketing Rep. Best review We’ve ever received. Honestly you guys are the best guests we’ve ever had. You guys took exceptional care of our farmhouse. It was so clean we didn’t even know you had stayed there. Really appreciated the fact that you put all the laundry in the laundry room for us. And did all the dishes including washing down of the countertops. The floors were even clean. You guys were amazing. And your communication was outstanding. I would recommend you to any host. Would love to host your group again. Anytime. Thank you so much for renting our farmhouse.

The Farmhouse served as the staging ground for our daughters wedding at a winery next door and we could not have had a better experience. The house was large enough for our group and offered every amenity we could ask for. So nice to have a well appointed kitchen. The owners were super communicative and responsive. We would highly recommend this house for a family reunion or friend get away. We are certainly planning on coming back soon

Nice property but no power
We rented this nice farmhouse for our wedding event. During our stay we were told that the power will be out. At the location, there wasn’t much accommodation for when the power does go out. We were told that we only get one flush and no running water. There was no generators provided. If there is power, great place to stay, but the property should be prepared for power outages.

Response from VrboOwner on 1 Apr 2020
So sorry you guys had to Rent during one of PG&E’s power outages. Unfortunately PG&E is causing hardship on a lot of businesses and residences. Since we don’t live in the area, there’s no way for us to know if you did indeed lose power at the house without communication from you. We did try more than once to contact you but had no response. We asked in our last communication for you to let us know if you do lose power. We had to special order a generator large enough to operate the well. This size generator cannot be purchased from a Home Depot. The generator did come in on Saturday. We would have brought it up to you had we known the need. We did call the neighbor on Saturday afternoon and they confirmed they still had power in the area. We take great pride in maintaining a five star review. We are Disappointed to receive less than five stars for something out of Control . Communication is the key.

Charming!
The Farmhouse is lovely and peaceful. Whether you want to visit many nearby wineries or sit on a beautiful deck overlooking vineyards you will enjoy your stay. I didn't need to bring so many things with me that are actual included amenities, such as coffee, tea, filters, plastic bags, dishes of every size, too many to list. I truly appreciated the owner's concern about the safety of the two small children with us since they do not often have children as guests. They loved playing on the deck and in the front yard. The wild turkey running across the yard was fun for them too. The house has been beautifully restored and contains much of its original charm. Bathrooms are beautifully updated. If you are looking for a peaceful getaway this is it!

This was an amazing restored home. The character from the old house shines through, yet the upgrades make it super comfortable. It is beautifully decorated. The location is perfect for visiting the many wineries in Amador County. The house has every amenity you could want. The bedrooms were well equipped. We had 4 couples staying (with one couple on the pull-out couch), but everyone was super comfortable. The pull-out couch had an included blow-up mattress. The bathrooms are beautiful. Upstairs bathrooms had claw-footed tubs. There is a wrap-around porch which made it nice to sit out and enjoy the view with a glass of wine. The owners left some very yummy brownies and a welcome bottle of wine. Any questions we had were quickly answered. Our every want or need was met spectacularly! We would all recommend this property for future stays.
