Once you arrive at your destination, you are greeted by two rustic garden gates that leads to a private front courtyard with a pavered, landscaped pathway to The Garden House. Whether you are on a weekly business trip, seeing family or planning a vacation around the fantastic 3 National Parks or lake regions near Fresno, The Garden House is a perfect place for you to relax and spend private time. The Garden House is a large (approximately 800 square feet), cozy studio apartment decorated in a French garden motif, which includes: bedroom/sitting area with king size bed, full bath & shower, fully equipped kithcen (stove/oven, microwave, full size refrigerator & complete set of cooking utensils). The family room area is fully equipted with 47' large screen HDTV, high speed wifi, BluRay player and new sleeper sofa with oversized chair. The Garden House is detached from the main house to provide complete privacy, and includes the use of one parking space of the enclosed garage spaces.
Looking out through the two large windows to the rear yard, you will see a canopy of mature trees and lawn area bordering.
Oh by the way, if you have a pooch, we are dog friendly.
Also, do not forget for your security of both your auto and personal items, The Garden House comes with the use of one bay in the garage with automatic door.
Hi! My name is Deni, and I am the owner of this beautiful home in Fresno, California. The Garden House is a separate building on a 1/2 acre lot. This is a custom designed home by well known architect, Cliff May, who designed the original California Ranch House. I spend my days painting in my on-site studio, working on a new mosaic project or just enjoying the company of my sweet dog, Charlie. Most days you will also find me working in my garden. Everyone that has stayed in the Garden House has considered it a second home and me a lifelong friend.
Deni Argain purchased this studio in 2012
This beautiful California Ranch House sits on a half acre lot full of trees and gardens. My guests have a private courtyard, complete with comfortable outdoor furniture and barbecue. My home is a separate structure which gives you total privacy. The garden house has a two car garage attached to it, and is used by my guests. I've also added a new stackable washer and dryer for your convenience. The neighborhood I live in is called Fig Garden, and the shopping village is nearby with a lot of great stores, both local boutiques as well as the mainstays like The Gap, Chico's, Coldwater Creek and Eddie Bauer. There are a couple of dog parks nearby, for those of you traveling with pets.
The Garden House is not only cozy, but very private. When you stay at a major brand hotel, you are staying in my opinion, at a very sterile and commercial environment. When you stay at The Garden House, you can relax like you are at your home, but without all of the constant distractions. So imagine getting out of your car and entering the large two gates into the private front courtyard, which is surrounded with a canopy of tall mature trees, an adult-sized treehouse as you make your way to your private getaway, The Garden House. As soon as you hit the gate, you know YOU ARRIVED AT A SPECIAL PLACE!!!
This stay was as wonderful as our previous stay with Deni, in the Garden House. The gorgeous yard, with mature trees was especially beautiful this year. The Garden House was spotless, and completely stocked with all essentials plus some. Communication with your host is easy and you'll find you feel like you're visiting a friend, as Deni is always welcoming and goes above and beyond to assure you have a pleasent stay. I can't imagine staying anywhere else when visiting the Fresno area.
The apartment is perfect, you can cook if you want and being able to park in the garage was nice. We enjoyed sitting on the patio in the morning drinking coffee. .
This is a wonderful place to stay and Deni is an excellent host. Delicious fresh pastries welcomed our arrival. The "Garden House" is located on a quiet street in a well established upscale residential area of Fresno. The cottage is quiet, comfortable, well decorated and of sufficient size to feel quite homey. The bed was the most comfortable of our trip. The patio is nicely landscaped and provides a peaceful setting to enjoy beautiful spring days. The cottage includes a full size refrigerator along with a washer and dryer and in garage parking. All the conveniences of home made us feel as if we were. We highly recommend this property. It is a diamond waiting to be discovered and enjoyed!
The Garden House had many amenities, which I appreciated - some of which included:
It was spacious
Decorated in a shabby chic style
Very clean
Private and quiet
Had a kitchen for cooking meals
Contained several comfortable seating areas - inside and outside
Had closet and drawer space for my belongings
A comfortable king-sized bed w/luxury linens
More towels than I could ever use - as well as soap(s), shampoo, conditioner, etc.
Was nestled in a neighborhood bursting with mature trees/shrubs/flowers - perfect for taking walks
A 1-car garage for my use
And gorgeous view of the huge trees in the backyard - complete with an "elusive chicken", which I enjoyed watching.
Deni is a "top drawer" Hostess - quick to answer questions, friendly - and she had everything ready for me when I arrived on a cloudy, cold, rainy day - including having "the heat turned on and lamps lit throughout the Garden House", which made me feel most welcome.
I highly recommend Deni and her lovely Garden House; and I look forward to returning in the future.
loved the tree house, had a great week, thank you . Lori & tom
This is our second stay with Deni and we had another fabulous time. The spacious room has a living room with a recliner and comfy couches, a heavenly king-sized bed, and a large dining table perfect for meals or work. The kitchen is fully equipped though small with respect to working or storage space. The bathroom has a shower that always provides hot water. The place is decorated with Deni's artsy style. The garden house windows look out on her gardens and patio and creates a safe space for our dogs to sun. There were fresh eggs and lemons and her hospitality is unmatched.
The Garden House is nestled in an established residential area of Fig Garden in Northwest Fresno, and is a fantastic launching pad to day trips to Yosemite National Park, Kings Canyon National Park and Sequoia National Park. In addition, there are fantastic lakes nearby such as Bass Lake, Huntingtion Lake, Shaver Lake or Millerton Lake for boating, sailing, skiing and/or fishing.
Or if you would like to explore the Central California coastal communities of Morro Bay, Carmel/Monterrey, Pismo Beach or Cayucos they are just a short 2 hour drive away. On your way to the Central Coast, tour the wine cellars surrounding Paso Robles.
Also Fresno is home to the Fresno State Bulldogs and its successful baseball, basketball and football programs at the highest NCAA level. Or if you want to play a round of golf their are over 10 golf courses within a half hour drive or less, with the challenging Fig Garden Golf Course only 5 minutes away that is open to the public.
