The Inn on Knowles Hill Bed & Breakfast Hotel

We had a marvelous third stay at your excellent Inn. The room is very beautiful and comfortable and the whole Inn and grounds are spectacular. Our days started on a high note with the sumptuous and delicious breakfasts.

amazing, wonderful inn keepers, warm, welcoming...WOW...glorious day...fun area to explore lots of gold rush history...lovely countryside...cute shops...a slice of the way life used to be and how back to simple things should be a thing...taking time to smell the roses, as there are many and pet a kitty or two and breathe in the fresh air...max =]

What an amazing step back in time with the amenities that rival any modern 5 star hotel/resort. From the moment you arrive to the time you depart, gracious hospitality exists. The rooms are well appointed with fine linens, bedding and the towels are WONDERFUL! The property is stunningly beautiful. I could have spent days upon end trying to take in all the furnishings and decor of the home. The owners who are also the hosts are incredibly friendly as they share the history of the home...and what a history there is! I highly suggest staying in the Segerstrom suite that has a wonderful balcony for a late afternoon glass of wine while you take in the views. The property is located on a quiet road above the quaint town of Sonora. There is a selection of restaurants and shopping within just a few minutes of the Inn. Do not skip out or miss the breakfast at the Inn. It is well planned out, filling and so scrumptious. I am not a breakfast person and totally enjoyed not only the time to share conversation with other guests but also savored each bite...the German pancakes, Aebleskivers with raspberry sauce (served that morning), are worth every calorie. It should be noted that this is an older home built in 1927 that has been renovated to preserve the beauty of those times with a touch of modern amenities. Also, there are stairs that need to be navigated in the event you may have some mobility issues.

Incredible experience and breakfast. The breakfast was remarkable and Sonora is a favorite stopover on our way to Yosemite. Thanks to our gracious hosts. Hope to see you again next year. Thanks so much!

This place is amazing and the hosts are just as amazing. We had the place to ourselves and Rhonda and Fred were such a pleasure to speak too. The food was professionally exquisite. The history of the house is so educational and to think we stayed where some great Americans of the past stayed. We did a side trip to Colombia and it was free and fun. Don’t miss a chance to stay here.

A unique property lovingly restored by the present owners. The house is absolutely packed with charming knick-nacks and antiques collected over the years and used to bring back to life what was a modern wealthy family home of the past century. Comfortable beds, delightful bathrooms and living/reading rooms available for guests with snacks and coffee at all times. Absolutely delicious gourmet breakfast....plan to skip lunch! Thank-you Rhonda!
