Step into a time when the rhythm of life was slower. When most of the world understood integrity, quality, and craftsmanship. When the idea of having some thing, or someone, for a lifetime, was not an unreasonable dream. The Inn on Knowles Hill is built on the rock encrusted summit named after June Knowles overlooking the historic Gold Rush town of Sonora, California. Knowles Hill is a natural paradise, resting on two and one-half beautiful acres of land. Our lush gardens, full of native plants, are the perfect place to sit and soak in the scenery. When you're not relaxing in your luxurious room or suite, stroll into Sonora, catch a showing at Stage 3 theatre, dine in historic downtown. just two blocks away, or travel to Yosemite for a day of hiking and breathtaking scenery!
