McCaffrey House

The owners were so helpful and cordial to make our visit wonderful. The B&B is the best we have ever enjoyed.

If you plan a trip to Yosemite, stay at the McCaffrey House. The rooms are lovely, the owners are extremely friendly and helpful. It is only 90 minutes drive (but what a beautiful drive). They did recommend some other places not even mentioned in my California book and they were simply gorgeous. Not to mention the breakfast: home made eggs benedict and fresh fruit...a pleasure for the eyes and the palate! Our only regret: we only stayed there one night!

We have visited many times and have always had a great experience. Stephanie and Michael are wonderful hosts.

The McCaffrey House is a beautiful home and the setting in the woods is beautiful. However, we found it a bit odd that the moment we were shown our room the quilt was immediately removed from the bed and never to be seen again. I didn't even get to take a picture of the room to show the family. The shower was old and needs replacing. The water shot out like a stream rather than a shower. The smoke alarm battery needed replacing and started beeping at 4:30am. No one tended to it until well after 8:30 am. the tiny bottle of shampoo and 1 1/2 inch bar of tiny soap was not replaced and was not sufficient for 2 people for 2 days. The breakfast was awsome and the inn keepers very nice. All in all it was a pleasant stay, but felt it was a bit over priced.

Comfortable, relaxing, friendly....first class. We enjoyed our two night stay, (on the most comfortable bed ever!) and enjoyed our breakfast and time spent in and around Twain Harte.

If you enjoy the mountains,and Great breakfasts this is the place to visit...

Family was so friendly and helpful. It was a great place to stay and we would go back in a heartbeat!

We had a great time. The room was fabulous. Its in a great location. Terrific for summer or winter vacationing. Best breakfast i've ever had at a B & B. We especially loved that it was dog friendly (and for big dogs as well), and our dogs had a great time as well. We'll definitely be back. Thanks again.

We stayed Thursday - Saturday to go snowboarding. Steffanie helped us get snow cables from Andy's up the road at an excellent price ($39.95) and he was nice enough to size them and teach us to put them on. Steffanie also arranged the 2 for 1 couples massage which was part of our package. Breakfasts were delicious and extremely filling; everything was homemade. It was our first time snowboarding and Dodge Ridge was a great value. $84 for a lift ticket, rental, and 2 hour lesson. We enjoyed the recommendations from the B&B: The Rock, Villa d'Oro, and Saturday wine tasting at Mt. Brow. The rooms were cozy with comfortable shower and tub for soaking, lovely toiletries, a warm fire stove, a patio and a gorgeous view; the service was great, and if you like pets, Blue, Finnigan, and Granite were a treat!

We stayed at McCaffrey's for the long weekend in Jan 2013. The location was perfect for as it is on ly 20 min for Dodge Ridge Skiing resort. We stayed at the Sage Room. The beds were very comfortable. The linens are incredibly soft, the pillows are good. The breakfast (all 3 days) was delicious. The whole atmosphere of the house is very homey yet elegant. Our daughter loved playing with their 2 dogs. And my husband and i enjoyed complimentary wine served at 5:30. Thanks you McCaffrey's for your hospitality!! We will be back. Veronika, Leo, Natalie

We loved staying at McCaffrey House, everything was perfect, the rooms, the service, the food and the Christimas Atmosphere ... My daughter and my son fell in love with Finnegan, the Golden Retriever.

My wife and I stayed for two days and it was such a fun and memorable experience. We plan on going back next year.

We have been staying at McCaffrey's for 4 years now. After having been guests at B&B's all over the world, we can clearly say that McCaffrey is at the top of our list. The breakfast is just out-of-this-world, the room and house decorations are charming and very tasteful, and Stephanie and Michael are just the most lovely hosts you will ever find. Don't miss a chance to stay at this B&B at least once!

We always enjoy returning to hike on beautiful trails, enjoy great breakfasts, and visit with Mike and Stephanie.

Close to restaurants and adult entertainment at the casino. The surrounding area is beautiful, offering skiing in the winter and swimming in the summer. Friendly casual atmosphere, with morning breakfast starters that make the whole day. A great choice.

The house is very charming and special, but dark because of the trees all around. Hosts are friendly and personal. Room good but slightly overpriced. Wifi was not working well at all. Lovely village with nice little restaurants nearby.

My husband and I enjoyed a lovely weekend at the friendly and cozy McCaffrey House. Michael and Stephanie were warm and welcoming with great suggestions about places to go for dinner. At their recommendation we dined at The Prospector, and enjoyed an unforgettable meal.

My husband and I stayed at McCaffrey House for our honeymoon. We had a wonderful time. The property is gorgeous and quiet setting in the woods. The food was delicious. Stephanie and Michael McCaffrey are great people, friendly and attentive. Thank you for a memorable trip!

McCaffrey House is in a perfect location. An immaculate bed and breakfast, with excellent service, we will stay there again when in the area. We especially enjoyed the welcome dogs!

Excellent location and it's pet friendly, too! Michael and Stephanie, the hosts, are kind and helpful and know the area well. The rooms are comfortable and clean, breakfasts are bountiful and sumptuous. Recommended!

Fantastic place with authentic atmosphere. Stephanie the owner was amazingly helpful and we enjoyed our one night very much. There is about an hours drive to Yosemite from here, but apart from that it was a great place to stay.

We love staying at McCaffrey House because it is close to everything that Tuolumne County offers (Vacationland), local restaurants are great and many of our friends live nearby. Don't miss a stop at the Twain Harte Pharmacy - it has everything, and even more. Stephanie, Michael, Finnegan amd Blue are all great hosts.

As always we had a pleasant stay. The only issue was that I made the reservation for a Sunday night and when we arrived it was marked down for Monday night even though the email I received stated Sunday. They did have rooms available and were very accomodating and giving us the same price.

It was our first family vacation since our little one was born. She is 1 and was a great little traveler. Everyone at McCaffrey was so sweet to her and just catered to her. We really enjoyed the house as well as the beautiful surroundings.

The stay at the McCaffrey B&B was the best of the entire trip to California. The welcome was warm especially by the Finnigan ( The Dog) who is absolutely gorgeous. We were made to feel entirely at home and given wine and cheese at 5,30 before we went out for our evening meal. The house and rooms were beautiful with huge emphasis on cleanliness and comfort. The bathrooms were spacious and the Olive Oil and lavender Soap was really lovely. The woodland setting of this house is amazing and extremely peaceful and we were able to eat breakfast on the terrace in the warm sunshine. I cannot recommend this B&B enough. An amazing stay, thank you.

A warm welcome, comfy room, excellent food and very helpful. The kids loved the dogs.

We booked this place as a birthday present for our daughter. She and her honey loved it and we were given great service in providing flowers & champagne in their room. Everything was beautiful. They stayed in the Burgundy Room and "he did not want to leave."

We had a relaxing stay at a lovely bed & breakfast surrounded by pines and mountain tops.

Really comfortable beds, friendly owners, love their dog Finnegan, Excellent breakfast! Felt very welcome. Twain Harte is a cute town.

Room was good. Only problem was that we could not turn the air down. Otherwise the stay was great. Breakfast was fantastic!

The McCaffrey House is a wonderful place built in and around some of the biggest evergreen trees we ever saw. Michael & Stephanie truly love what they do and they make you feel special at ever turn. From the delicious homemade breakfasts on the patio, to the casual evening wine and cheese bar, you won't find a better place in northern California. Nestled in the woods about a mile from Twain Harte, CA, we couldn't have asked for a more relaxing environment. Stephanie suggested an evening in the park on Saturday and a local band played for 2 hours, while we sat on the grass and enjoyed a bottle of wine and sandwiches we purchased at the local store. Pinecrest Lake is only 15 minutes away and there's unlimited things to do all day, including hiking, biking, fishing, boats for rent, sailing and 3 wonderful beaches if you don't want to do anything but relax. Save our room because we know we'll be back. Dwight & Michelle Nelson - Arvada, CO

Having never stayed at a bed and breakfast before, we were a little nervous about the experience. The moment we arrived, our fears were alleviated. The staff and owners were very friendly and accommodating. McCaffrey House was a warm and welcome place to stay. Our 6 year old felt right at home and enjoyed playing with the owner's granddaughter. It was clean, comfortable and the breakfast was delicious. As a first timer, I would definitely recommend this B & B! We hope to visit it again sometime.

This is an exceptional B&B in every way. Owner-chef, Stephanie has a knack for delicious meals and presentation. The B&B is impeccably clean and is beautifully located in a woodland setting with a large deck for enjoying nature. The service as well as conversation makes this experience a real pleasure. Thanks, Esther

After a long year of change and challenges we booked our holiday getaway to Twain Harte. The McCaffrey House website photo looked like a photo from Thomas Kindade just the place to unwind and get away! We were not disappointed. Greeted by The McCaffreys at the start and made comfortable in every possible way. Secluded in the pines and yet minutes away from town we had all we needed. Oh yes and the breakfast mmmmmmmm eggs benedict our first morning. We splurged and took the evergreen room. No surprise it was just as we saw in the photo. We enjoyed conversation and Mike and Stephanie were wonderful hosts. Blue and Finnegan were the best at greeting us and making us feel welcome too!

We were traveling through and only stayed one night but we really enjoyed our stay. Michael was a friendly host and Stephanie was an awesome cook. We loved the eggs benedict for breakfast. We had the evergreen room which was beautiful and the bed was quite comfortable. We felt right at home with their two dogs. We highly recommend.

My wife and I spent our anniversary weekend at the McCaffrey House. We stayed in the Blue Room and it was elegant and clean. The food was the best B&B food that my wife and I have ever had...amazing. We had the Romance Package upgrade, which was nice. Finally Stephanie, the proprietor, was awesome. Friendly and helpful throughout our entire stay. Highly recommend this place to anyone.

Mc Caffrey House, Bed and Breakfast was a great place to stay, If you want a taste of nature, Peaceful Mountain Escape, We really enjoyed our stay for two days, The Inn keepers where so Gracious to open Their home to us. Thank You!

Lovely couple. We had a great time in Twain Harte, the town was excellent for a get away and provided excellent dining options. Would recommend "The Prospector" the chef is very artistic with top quality ingredients and changes his menu everyday. Recommend to just tell the chef to cook whatever he wants for you. Great wine pairings as well!

Loved this B&B. Stephanie (owner)was the sweetest and Delores (housekeeper)was great. All we had to do was ask and it was done. Would go back ina minute.

We love going to the McCaffrey House. It's a beautiful home in a serene setting. Stephanie is delightful and full of ideas on how to spend your time in the mountains. We plan to go back every chance we get.

We were completely delighted with our stay at the McCaffrey House. The owners are very pleasant and we absolutely loved the pets that they own. The inn is very clean, the food was excellent and we are looking forward to another stay as soon as we can get away. The only regret was that we did not book two nights for our first stay! Next time we will!

We stayed at the McCaffrey House for only one night but surely will return! This was our first experience staying at a Bed & Breakfast and we were very pleased. We hope to plan a family trip and will definitely include the McCaffrey House in our plans. The Evergreen room was beautiful and comfortable as was the entire property. We felt completely at home. Loved the dogs!

Warm and professional hosts, beautiful room, great food. What more could anyone want?? Richard and Betty Wren

We celebrated our actual 22nd Wedding Anniversary at McCaffrey's. My husband and I had never stayed at a B&B before and didn't know what to expect. What we found - beautiful B&B, beautiful grounds, beautiful room w/attached bath, wonderfully accommodating hosts and luscious breakfast the next day. We were only able to stay one night because they were completely sold out on subsequent nights. They have many return customers. Stephanie McCaffrey is extremely knowledgeable about the area, including Yosemite and she's always willing to help with reservations, etc. You would not be disappointed!

Wonderful Bed and Breakfast in a beautiful, relaxing setting. The McCaffreys were gracious hosts, the food was delicious and the room was extremely comfortable and beautifully decorated. Loved the incidentals they provided like wine and cheese in the afternoons and wine and chocolate covered strawberries in the room. They even included make up remover with the shower staples. The McCaffreys definitely go above and beyond!

I echo everything positive written below. I just wanted to concentrate on the fact that they welcome animals because few have mentioned it. I called at the last minute as I took a road trip with my dog over Sonora pass on my way to Mammoth. Everything was wonderful & a perfect stopping off place. I especially appreciate them welcoming my very energetic labrador retriever, Austin. He got along great with Finneagn & Blue. It's very hard to find a place that will welcome your pet, but there was no problem here. The property is completely fenced so Austin was safe roaming around & exploring the property. Thanks again for your hospitality.

My wife and I spent an extended weekend at the McCaffrey House to celebrate our wedding anniversary. What a lovely setting and comfortable place to stay while we celebrated and explored the Gold Country and High Sierra. Upon the recommendation of our host couple, Stephanie and Mike, we had a delicious & romatic dinner in Twain Harte our first evening. The next day we hiked around Pinecrest Lake and visited Jamestown after having a wonderful breakfast. We only wish we had another day to spend at this lovely B&B. We felt very confortable and met some very nice people. We will definately return for another stay.

From the moment my wife and I were greeted by enthusiastically wagging tails as we walked down the front steps, we felt completely at home. The McCaffreys have a beautiful property, impeccably maintained. More than that, though, they were extremely warm, generous and accomodating hosts. Through our weekend stay, we felt like we were visiting with old friends, enjoying conversation in the living room or just sitting outside with their very friendly dogs, Finnegan and Blue. Of course, the breakfasts were also delicious, and Mrs. McCaffrey even has a recipe book available! The property is conveniently located just outside of downtown Twain Harte, along the highway. It was very easy to get on the road and travel up to Lyon's resevoir or a little further to Pinecrest Lake. We had a fantastic late summer vacation and hope that we can return in the winter months to experience some snow and cocoa with Stephanie, Michael, Finnegan, and Blue.

Have been here before and always like the fact that I'm known when I return. Stayed over two nights and enjoyed the peacefulness of one of the upstairs rooms looking out into the tall trees. The innkeepers are genuinely wonderful people! Don't miss the chance to stay here!

We stayed for three days in the Sage room and it was absolutely wonderful. The house and room are gorgeous, spaceous and extremely clean. The breakfast is also good and Stephanie is a wonderful innkeeper. I would definitely recommend this place

We have stayed at many a bed and breakfast. This was one of the best. The inn was beautiful and the staff was warm and friendly. We felt quite at home. Breakfasts were delicious and they were very accomodating to our children. The only drawback was a mouse caught in the laundry room wall that was scratching.

We spent 2 nights at this lovely place and I loved it. Stephanie (the owner) is very nice and helpful. It was good talking to her. The room was lovely and with very nice details. The breakfast was great too. We checked out before breakfast after our 2. night and we even got some breakfast to go! I can highly recommend to stay in the Sonora area. We drove to the Yosemite Valley from there and its pretty far, but other Hotels are not much closer and not as cozy as McCaffrey!

Extremely well-maintained B&B, including grounds. (The bathroom fan was a bit noisy, though.)

Welcoming and homely the perfect rest after a hard drive. Breakfast on the balcony the best way to start the day. Would definitely stay again if in the area.

McCaffrey House is a great value. The rooms are spacious, airy and complete with necessities. Though a b&b, one feels comfortable having their children stay here. Mine, in fact love the resident dogs, and the breakfasts.

We happened across this precious place with an offer to military veterans. The McCaffrey Houses' quiet, peaceful setting is only the beginning of your stay. The owners are so gracious, its as if you're family. Their pets are so part of the package I think... Finnegan & Blue are as kind as their owners and well behaved and it adds to the serenity. I'd stay there every weekend if I could, but wouldn't want others to miss the chance to enjoy the rooms and the surrounding environment and town. You can hike, and then go into town and have wonderful food at the Rock!! It's an experience that I will repeat.

We spent a beautiful weekend at the McCaffrey House and enjoyed ourselves so much. The home itself is just beautiful, so warm and inviting. You won't have enough room in your tummies for all the delectable goodies that Stephanie will cook up for you and believe me, she is an excellent cook. Michael is such a charming host and goes out of his way to make you feel at home and comfortable. Their dog Finnegan is such a delight and very friendly....he is just one of many added attractions you will find at this fantastic B & B. We are making plans to go back just as soon as we can.

We spent two wonderful nights at the McCaffrey House, just to get away from the city. The trip exceeded our expectations. The house was lovely, the rooms sweet and accommodating. We especially enjoyed eating breakfast on the porch. We totally expect to return.

No detail was left out, I felt pampered the whole time. Stephanie & Michael, Finnegan & Blue were great hosts!

We had a wonderful return visit to McCaffrey's in the Sierras, our favorite spot. Our hosts are delightful and helpful people, also the people who help them. It happened to be a cold weekend, so a warm and cosy atmosphere was more than welcome. H and N

We were dissapointed and I'm sure a few other guests were too. The first night for appetizers there was only a slab of brie with a cheap bottle red wine and the second night they didn't put out any appetizers or wine out at all !!! Several couple's kept coming back for over an hour to the living room to see if anything ever got put out. The breakfasts don't look like any of the pictures on this website or the Inn's web site. They served basically the same thing both days. A small fruit bowl, eggs and one piece of sausage, with burnt store bought english muffin. Not gourmet. It's nice that the dogs are friendly and all, but it's not nice that one of them was under the dining table during both breakfasts. I could carry on about the bad stuff but it will only make me more frustrated. The room was lovely with comfortable beds and a cozy fireplace, so at least that was nice. We won't be rushing back any time soon

The McCaffrey House was a lovely place to stay. We felt very welcome and comfortable there. Much like visiting family instead of staying in a hotel. We plan on visiting again soon.

real charming, very warm hospitality, nice and well behaving dogs, like visiting a friends home - A have to come back again place.

Excellent bed and breakfast for family! Breakfast was amazing! Bought the recipe book so that we can make some of the wonderful dishes at home. Only concerns...not everybody got hot showers at busy times...before breakfast and dinner. Also missed the 5:30 wine, cheese, crackers? Asked for wine and got some, but snacks never came out which the kids would have liked after a long day of skiing. Other than that, would definitely go back again!

I spent two nice at this lovely B&B. The proprietors are lovely people, very friendly and helpful in important ways. The breakfasts were superb and a great way to start my ski mornings. I hope to have the pleasure of staying here again soon.

This was our third year in a row staying at McCaffrey House. Stephanie and Michael are wonderful hosts and Stephanie's gourmet breakfasts kept us well fueled for full days of skiing. They have recommendations for whatever type of food you are in the mood for and will call ahead for reservations for you. Relaxing in the living room with wine and cheese each night is a great way to wind down...and for animal lovers, their dog, Finnegan is a treat!

Very friendly, elegant dinning room setting. Warm hospitality. highly recommended.

What a perfect time we had. Complete with 10" of snowfall for the winter-wonderland effect! It was delightful and charming in every way; delicious meals, calm, peaceful, friendly, cozy atmosphere, great dogs. Now that we are back home, I miss being there among the pines and darling house. We highly recommed it and look forward to returning.

Unfortunately, I had to leave before breakfast as I had to be 30 miles away by 7:00 AM, but otherwise my stay was excellent. I arrived late, but my hostess was awake, cheerful, and welcoming, my room was ready, very well appointed, and comfortable. I went straight to bed, slept like a log in a very comfortable bed, got up six hours later, showered, dressed, and was on my way. I look forward to returning when I can enjoy the McCaffrey's hospitality more.

I loved this place. Stephanie is a wonderful hostess and I the place is beautiful. We went as a family and they are very family friendly.

Fantastic stay. Far exceeded my expectations for a B&B. Service was outstanding. Stephanie could not have been more helpful and made sure we enjoyed our visit. Would definitely stay again.

My wife and I recently enjoyed another great visit to the McCaffrey House in Twain Harte. Stephanie and Michael are spectacular hosts and always make us feel as though we have stepped into our own home. The accomodations are top-notch (we stayed in the Burgundy room on the back of the house, upstairs) and their dining recommendations have always been great. Eggs benedict for breakfast was a great start to our skiing day at Dodge Ridge. We will be back, again and again....

We found the McCaffrey house to be just what we needed during our three day getaway. We usually try to make it out to Tahoe but for some reason decided to give Dodge Ridge a try and the McCaffrey house got our stay started on the right foot. First the drive from the bay area is much easier than the trek to Tahoe. Next, the location is convenient. Only 30 minutes from Dodge Ridge and 10-15 minutes from local eating establishments. The McCaffrey House is a great house tucked away right off the main hwy. The inside was beautifully decorated for the Holidays, it created the perfect Warm Winter Cottage for us to spend in the snow. The rooms were very nice and cozy with a gas fireplace and big comfortable beds. The breakfast in the morning, was better than I could have expected with an assortment of tea, toast, fresh fruit and yogurt, juicy sausage, italian eggs, and hearty bacon. The second day we had indulgent french toast with a caramel syrup. Very gourmet! Stephanie and her husband were great caring hosts and cooks. We will definitely be back!!

This was our second year that we have stayed in McCaffrey House and it was great as always. Mike and Stephanie McCaffrey are very friendly and very pleasant hosts. We are ready to go back and sstay again next year.

Very quaint place, and loved both the hosts and their dogs. The rooms were very comfortable - and well maintained. The place is easier to find driving up to Pinecrest, than on the way back - so keep a lookout on the way up, because you are sure to miss the turn otherwise.

Cool dogs, very homey, good for families. Confirmation of reservations a bit of a problem

Our short overnight stay was fabulous! The home is beautiful as well as the surrounding area. It is a very pet friendly environment and our four month old poodle was welcomed with open arms! The breakfast that was served the following morning was delectable! The owners were very hospitable and our room we stayed in was large, clean, and very comfy! We will definitely be returning!

McCaffrey House is is one of our favorite places to go. Accomodations, hosts, and atmosphere are truly amazing. The warmth and gredting from Finnagen down to the homemade delicious breakfrast in the morning. First class service all the way.

The McCaffrey House is a lovely B & B. The owners are extremely hospitable and the food was wonderful. If I were the owner, though, I would definitely put some money into updating the rooms, especially the matresses and linens.

stay was for my birthday. it was our first visit. the innkeepers were very warm and friendly. food was excellent. location perfect. would go back .

Great time, great innkeepers, great food, a must stay! Will come again! Great skiing!

My husband and I only spent one night but it really was the best B&B that either of us has ever stayed at. You immediatly are greeted with a warm and sincere hello. We arrived a little before 5:00 pm and so we were invited to relax and drink some wine, which was really good by the way. Mike and Stephanie also joined us and gave us some great places to go and eat at. The room was great, very nicely decorated and you could tell that someone really took the time to put the little extras in the room that you might forget to bring your self. The breakfast was excellant! The dining room felt very comfortable and inviting. It was like eating at your grandma's house. Sal and I will go back again. It really was the perfect place to stay., Thank you!

One of the best Inns I have ever stayed at. A must for any B&B enthusiast. Beautiful setting, great breakfast, and a warm hot tub. The host are very gracious. Looking forward to next time.

We have stayed at the McCaffrey house for several years. Words describing this establisment are Excellence, Attention to detail, gracious, warmth, pleasing, comfort and happiness. The proprietors are Stephanie and Michael McCaffrey. Luxury and your wellbeing is apparent by every interaction with these superb hosts. If you are looking for a gorgeous atmosphere, warm and welcoming company, enticing food, and peace then book your room (s). My husband and I celebrated our honeymoon in this breathtaking setting. During our stays we have watched couples marry, anniversaries celebrated, and have met amazing guests. Whether you stay one evening and move on or stay longer you will always feel at home.
