“Anderson Valley’s Newest Vacation Spot Blends Ecotourism With The Area’s Historic Past”

In the summer of 2016, The Madrones owners Jim Roberts and Brian Adkinson will be offering a sneak peak for travelers searching out a wilderness experience at their new sister property; The Brambles. The first accommodations available on the property are located in the historic homestead which has been recently restored. The Stick and Shingle style Architecture, which is typical of the late 1800’s and the heyday of the timber boom., is crafted out of the original old growth redwood boards. Over a hundred years later, the owners nod to the valley’s historic past while creating a vision for the future and conserving the areas natural resources. Located next door to The Madrones and adjacent to the hamlet of Philo, this 12 acre ancient redwood grove is bordered by Indian Creek. The greater property is currently slated for a 2017 mid summer opening. The accommodations will be a mixture of tree houses and vintage styled bungalows. In addition there will be a Victorian Stumpery, central campfire pavilion, future natural swimming pool with vegetation filtration, event barn and orchard meadow as well as a historic train car used for dining and private parties. Early summer bookings for the homestead guest quarters will be available this spring @ www.themadrones.com
