Wonderful location, beautiful property.

We should have stayed longer! This was a great base for visiting favorite spots along Highway 4, like Calaveras Big Trees SP and Lake Alpine. We enjoyed grilling dinner and relaxing on the patio, listening to (and watching) frogs by the pond, and just taking time away from our normal schedules. Kimberly was super helpful through the whole process!

We will definitely return! We wanted to be in Gold Country, Day Trip and have a private retreat in the evenings. This location fulfilled all of our wishes and more. Our hosts were extraordinary! This is a wonderful venue for weddings, retirement parties or a family gathering too.

Had the best experience staying, hosting an event, and getting ready for my wedding at this gorgeous place. Kim was absolutely amazing—so sweet and helpful. She went above and beyond, taking the time to meet with us, show us the property, and arrange a contract for us to hold our wedding welcome party there, even recommending vendors and putting signs out by the road.
The description and map views did not prepare me for the stunning beauty of driving into this property—the hills, windy road, and feeling of remoteness made me giddy! Then arriving at the perfectly manicured lawn & pond and super cool house truly felt like a private oasis.
So glad we found this incredible place and this gracious host— it made our wedding weekend all the more magical!

Adorable octagonal 1970s home located on a little lake amongst oak trees and wildlife. Comfortable inside and out! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. I will miss sipping coffee outside while watching the birds on the water and chirping in the trees.

From the moment we came in the front gate we had a smile on our face. I loved having my morning coffee watching deer, wild turkeys and squirrels going past the living room window. I love to fish and was able to catch a couple of bass from the pond. My family and I will definitely plan to return soon.

Just like the photos! Such a beautiful place. Movie nite outside, under the stars, was so special that we did it twice! Kimberly was the best hostess! She made sure everything was perfect for our stay and responded immediately to answer any questions. Such a peaceful and relaxing stay. We didn't want to leave. Thank you Kimberly and Micah for making our little anniversary holiday so special!

Wonderful Ranch Property
Wonderful Ranch Property
We had a great weekend stay at this property. The ranch property is great with many oak trees, rolling hills, and a very nice landscaped area for events near the pond. The house is great and has nice amenities, including a wood fire BBQ and propane/charcoal grill. The owners were friendly and extremely welcoming. We would definitely stay here again!

This is the second time we have stayed at this property and the experience was even better this time around (which is hard to believe given we loved our last visit here). The home is best in class, with everything you would ever need to enjoy your stay already included. The highlight of our vacation was a movie night on the pond which was unforgettable. The home itself is very well kept, comfortable and the whole family had the time of their life. Kim was very welcoming, constantly made sure we had everything we needed and really made the experience special for us.
Thanks again for everything.
We will be back again for sure :)

A gorgeous property perfect for a getaway. We always try to go to a more remote place for New Years to turn off some noise of the city, and this property was great! Kimberly made everything so easy with her suggestions of the small town nearby and being very accommodating. Excited to visit again in the near future!

New Family Tradition
New Family Tradition
My family was looking for a weekend getaway that was close to home and what a blessing it was to find the Spanish R.
Kim is amazing and truly wants her guests to enjoy their stay at her property. She went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed.
The Home itself is quite unique, very spacious and comfy. Everything was clean and tidy. The beds were comfortable and the linens were high quality. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we could possibly need, next time I know not to pack so much!
We loved watching the turkeys, and the cows with their calf’s roam early in the mornings while enjoying our coffee outside. We shared carrots with the horse who would come when we called by the end of our trip. Mornings were so peaceful.
We enjoyed family time playing horseshoes in the two pits, what an added bonus! Down by the pond there was plenty of room to play games like bocci ball on the beautiful lawn areas.
Movie night at the pond was incredible. The screen is easy to access and the projector was so simple to use. There was lots of outdoor blankets and bean bags available to make us all comfortable while we watched the big screen, enjoyed popcorn, and made s’mores over the fire pit!
Grocery stores were close and New Lake Melones was only about 15 minutes away which was so convenient.
I can say that our Labor Day weekend spent at the Spanish R was one for the books! My family all agreed that we want to make it a yearly tradition and we look forward to visiting again!
Thank you again Kim for being the best!

We had a fabulous time staying here! Kim made everything so easy for us and was the best host! She even left us some goodies upon check-in which was so thoughtful! She was extremely accommodating and helpful throughout our stay. The outdoor movie set up by the pond was the best...we loved it! Everything was very clean and the house had everything we needed...it was so nice to know that we didn't need to bring every little thing with us! The house worked perfectly for our group and we hope to come back and stay again! I definitely give this home 5 stars!

My friends and I booked a weekend stay at this beautiful ranch property, and it lived up to all the reviews! The house was spacious, super comfortable, very clean and only a few minutes from downtown Murphys and the local lakes.
The owner Kim went above and beyond in every way. She was thoughtful, quick to respond with any questions and provided a ton of recommendations for things to do. She is incredibly kind and wants to make sure her guests are happy. You can’t ask for a better experience than you’ll have here. Thank you, Kim!

I never write reviews but I had to let everyone know how special this place is to stay. The house is welcoming and clean with all the amenities included but what made our vacation so special was Kimberly, the owner. She was so warm, helpful, accessible, and accommodating with all of our needs and questions. This place is a gem and we can't wait to come back and make new memories.

We rented the home while traveling to town for a friends wedding. It was incredibly beautiful and private! It was so great that the Groom and groomsmen got ready here! The property is huge and lovely and I only wish we had less wedding duties so we could truly enjoy the place. Kim was so helpful and sweet! My husband and I definitely want to come back and enjoy the area during cooler weather.

Wedding and Mother's Day weekend
Wedding and Mother's Day weekend
My daughter selected this property as our home base for her wedding weekend, which was also Mother's Day weekend. The house and grounds were all perfect for fulfilling her vision of time with friends and family (we enjoyed the horseshoe pit and brought a big outdoor Jenga), the wedding party, her bridesmaids (for girl time and as well as their 'getting ready' pictures), her 'first look' with her fiancee at the pond, pre-wedding family pictures and more. For the duration of the weekend, we spent a lot of time under the gazebo for meals and conversation and on the deck at the pond for some quiet reflection and respite. Our Mother's Day gathering was a drop in day and the flow of the house and outdoors lent itself beautifully for the occasion. Kimberly went above and beyond to make our weekend a success by making sure we had platters and champagne glasses available. She had a beautiful and thoughtful presentation of flowers and special wedding themed items set up for us upon arrival. It was an action packed, whirlwind weekend and the property hosted us beautifully. Our family has a small property in Dorrington, which is nearby, but will look to rent this property again for any larger gathering. We loved it! Thank you Kimberly and Mike.

Kimberly was incredible to say the least. She communicated regularly in the months and weeks leading up to the stay. The property was magnificent, the posting on VRBO doesn’t begin to do it justice. I’ve never stayed in a place where it felt like a family member was just letting us crash for a few days in their place. Thank you so much Kimberly!

We loved our Thanksgiving weekend in this remote and naturally beautiful area. The house was exactly as described and the ability to enjoy the scenery, play badminton, and have cocktails by the pond with a fire going made it all very memorable and safe. Thank you, Kim, for your responsiveness and thoughtful touches. Our family will remember Angels Camp with fondness for our 2020 Thanksgiving.

An amazing time - even while working remotely
An amazing time - even while working remotely
We stayed here for an extended period to quarantine - it was an amazing experience! Kimberly was very responsive when planning our stay, and was just as responsive when we were at the house. When we got there, we had some issues with the internet, but she swiftly took care of it, and in no time we have 6 (!!!) people on video calls all at the same time. Seriously - it's hard to find a house with good internet; this was pretty amazing. It's very close to great climbing areas (The Grotto), hiking (Arnold), lakes (Lake Alpine, Utica Reservoir), and about a 1.5 hr drive to Yosemite. The property itself is massive - you're far from any highway (or any cars for that matter), right next to a gorgeous little pond, and there were cows roaming the hills, and horses grazing nearby. We always stopped on the drive from the highway to the house to watch the sunset in the evenings which are absolutely priceless. And not only all that - but the place is a bout a 5min drive to a grocery store in Angels Camp, and a great health-food store in Murphys. We had an amazing time, and were very sad to leave. We will most definitely be coming back to stay again in the future.

A Great Stay at the Spanish R
A Great Stay at the Spanish R
What a great place to get away, relax, and hang out. A very comfortable and open home, with every amenity inside, and plenty of room to roam just outside the french doors and big picture windows. You feel like you are a million miles away, yet everywhere you want to go is just short drive down hwy 4.
And Kim could not have been more friendly, helpful, and accommodating. We really enjoyed our stay, and the kids are asking how soon we can return. Highly recommended.

Relaxing & amazing property
Relaxing & amazing property
The location of this home is perfect. Close to Angels Camp & Murphys, 55 mins from Lake Alpine (our new favorite place), 10 mins to Natural Bridges Trailhead (the coolest swimming holes & wading river water), and so much more. We planned outings each day, and then came "home" to the most beautiful scenery - beautiful pond (the kids loved catching fish), smores pit surrounded by outdoor storing lights, and picture perfect sunsets. One of our favorite things was turning off all the outdoor lights & looking up at the sky. SO many stars in the clear sky. It was absolutely breathtaking. Kim was an excellent host, very accommodating and responsive. She sent us recommendations of socially-distant, kid-friendly places to explore which was do helpful because this was our first time in this area. We especially appreciated the COVID cleaning procedures that helped us feel safe. Our kids keep asking to "go back to the vacation house".

Location is perfect, close to downtown Angels Camp & Murphy’s but you feel miles away from anything. Kim and her husband were excellent hosts, very accommodating and responsive. 20 minutes to the New Melonies marina. Coming back after a day on the lake bbqing on the patio and chilling by the dock with family made for a great holiday weekend!
