This turn-of-the-century Victorian farmhouse offers ample space for solitude, a romantic getaway or small business meetings. We can arrange theatre tickets, restaurant reservations, golf and ski packages. We also feature brand new beds!

Bed and Breakfast Description

Barretta Gardens Inn is an elegantly restored 1904 Victorian farmhouse, fully central air-conditioned and well known for its special warm atmosphere and Gold Country views.

The Inn was built at the turn of the 19th century by Albert L. Kleinecke, an executive for Standard Lumber Co., on a steep hillside overlooking the gold rush town of Sonora. It has been lovingly restored to its historic ambiance and is one the most well-known bed and breakfast inns in the southern Gold Country.

Whatever time of year you choose to visit our Victorian Bed and Breakfast Inn, you'll find something unique to do. Our shady porches offer quiet views of fragrant gardens and foothill sunsets in the warm seasons.

Enjoy relaxing in our living room with fireplace, formal dining room with crystal chandelier, first and second floor parlors or our cheery breakfast porch. We offer five tastefully decorated non-smoking bedrooms with private bathrooms.

Lodging is available for small wedding parties. Our old fashioned gazebo, makes a perfect site for weddings under 20 people or vow renewals with close family and friends.
