Escape to the ideal getaway! Discover serenity in this remodeled cottage at Starview Ranch, enveloped by manzanitas and cradled beneath a majestic pine. Embrace relaxation with the fragrance of lavenders in the verdant French garden, observe birds in the yard, or unwind with a book by the fireplace. This is also a perfect spot to venture out and explore the wonders of Kings Canyon and Sequoia National Parks. The allure of the Starview Ranch cottage will leave you yearning for an extended stay.

The space
This hand-built cottage is 1400 sq ft with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. The original quartz fireplace dates back to when the house was a hunting cabin before WWII and the wood flooring was renovated with hand milled pine. There is a futon and two twin beds in one bedroom so up to 6 people can stay comfortably. It has 2 screened porches, 1 off the bedroom and 1 off the dining area with a table seating 4. The dining room table seats 6. There is an additional outside table for 4 in the French garden as well as a large gas grill.

Guest access
You will need a car to get around and there is ample parking in front of the cottage fence.

Other things to note
Please note this property is 45 minutes from a grocery store so advanced meal planning is advised.

The fireplace should not be used during summer months when the fire risk is high. The gas BBQ grill in the garden can be used year-round.

Other things to note
I would like to remind guests that this property is out in the beautiful wilderness. You are in the great outdoors and may encounter wild animals, both large and small. If doors or windows (without screens) are left open these critters and many bugs tend to find their way in. I recommend only opening up the screened windows and ensuring doors are not left open. Also, no matter how rigorously the cottage is cleaned (and I take cleaning very seriously) there may be some dead bugs or a small cobweb that was created in the short time from cleaning to your check in... this is just a fact of life and part of the charm of staying at a ranch cottage in the middle of nowhere.

Starview Ranch is located in a remote area in the Sierra Nevada foothills. The drive to the property from either Kings Canyon Drive or from the 245 involve curvy mountain roads with switchbacks and sharp turns which can also be narrow in some places. Also, the drive to Kings Canyon National Park is a windy mountain road.

The television is connected to an Amazon Fire Cube. You can access Amazon Prime, Netflix and Hulu. Feel free to use your own login for other TV apps. Cable TV stations are not included.

There is a Bluetooth speaker in the kitchen for listening to music.

One last piece of advice
Pack and wear clothes that you don't mind getting a little dusty/ dirty. Again, part of the charm.
