Falling Star Lodge - A Sayles Ranch Home

Immerse yourself in the allure of this 1938 Craftsman Cottage that boasts 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, providing a cozy retreat for your stay. This unique property is part of the signature Sayles Ranch Guesthouses, that have been hosting guests since 2004.

Step into a space where history meets comfort, with a king, queen and 2 single beds. The décor in the first bedroom is a tribute to our Native American heritage, with antique Navajo rugs, artwork, and captivating imagery.

We loved our stay in this rustic western vibe home. It felt like a cabin getaway. The beds were so comfortable I slept so good every night. Only thing is the master queen bed is high off the ground so I needed to find a stepstool for my short legs but the comfort was worth it! The inclosed patio was so relaxing during early morning coffee drinking. Too hot in the summer weather but I imagine it’s perfect during spring or fall. I was actually sad checking out today it felt like I was leaving home. Till next time ….
