A Tranquil Escape at Reverie Retreat in the Black Oak Cabin.
After a year of transition, transforming and the normal aging process. My loving wife set up a surprise get away weekend for us.
If you are looking for the perfect blend of rustic and modern comfort, the Reverie Retreat is an absolute gem.I almost don’t want to tell you about it because I want to keep this treasure to myself. When we arrived we were warmly greeted, including our anticipated pet Toby.
The hot tub provided two amazing sunsets as we looked out over the beautiful infinity pool. Off in the horizon, Sacramento. This was an unexpected but immensely appreciated experience.
Nestled in the heart of Coloma, this stay is a peaceful sanctuary that feels worlds away from the hustle and bustle of our normal lives. Shockingly, it is only 1 hour and 45 from our home in Vacaville!! Nestled in the rich history of California's Gold Country.
Why It’s Special:
• Immersive Nature: The cabin is surrounded by a stunning array of Northern California trees and local wildlife. Maybe it was that March madness, Spring time feel, but from the moment of sunrise the birdsongs greeted our movements outside the cabin and at sunset the periodic songs of frogs set the mood for days end. During our daylight hours the silence with only the sound of the wind in the trees and the birdsongs reminded me of my childhood days in the Rogue Valley. These sounds of silence and the circle of life aid in resetting our soul and opening the door for peace to come during a time when the world seems to have spun off into chaos and uncertainty.
• Thoughtful Design: The interior of the Black Oak cabin strikes a perfect balance between cozy and chic. It’s clear that every detail—from the comfortable bedding to the curated decor—was chosen to make guests feel instantly at home. Every need is carefully thought of and met. Each of the three cabins has its own private two person soaking tub with hot and cold water enabled for use at any time of the day and night.
• Outdoor Living: The deck is the star of the show. Whether you’re sipping coffee in the morning mist or stargazing at night, from the soaking tub or in front of the fire pit, the atmosphere is pure magic.
• Location: Being in Coloma means you're minutes away from the Marshall Gold Discovery State Historic Park, the David Girard Winery and the South Fork of the American River. It really is an ideal base for hikers, history buffs, and rafters alike.
The Verdict
The Reverie Retreat has created something truly special with three lovely cabins, one being fully ADA compliant, it’s more than just a place to sleep; it’s an experience that leaves you feeling refreshed and inspired. Whether you're on a solo retreat or a romantic getaway alone or with other couples, this adults only retreat and in particular our Black Oak cabin is a 10/10 recommendation.
This is a perfect spot to unplug if you want to, breathe deep, reset and reconnect with nature!
