North Canyon Inn is a honeymooners paradise! We got married at a venue just a few minutes away and not only was the location convenient, but the Inn itself was so dreamy, intimate, and special. The rooms are clean and gorgeous with newly remodeled showers! The best part for my husband and I was waking up to the most delicious breakfast - an Apple Hill crumble and savory quiche - that hangover cure worked like a charm. Thank you again to Mike and Fran!

What a great little treasure in the foothills! The gold may be gone, but Mike and Fran have the next best thing: their B&B, and it's a treasure. All the superlatives that you've read already, I could repeat. It's a very nice property tucked into a very quiet hillside. In October, all the Apple Hill "ranches" are having their festival and we just stumbled onto it. I wish we had planned it better, or we would have stayed and played longer - but we were there for something else. We wish we could have spent more time getting to know the hosts too - instead, we were that "eat and run" type of guests. Mike even fired up the compressor and filled up the flat tire on my rental car before leaving his place. Great property. Wonderful host and hostess. We hope to come back, relax more, and explore! Thanks Mike and Fran for sharing your little slice of heaven.

This was a special place to stay in the Apple Hill area. My daughter was getting married up the road at an outdoor event venue. The hosts Fran and her husband Mike were so nice and attentive. The breakfasts were scrumptious and filling. They ven accommodated our request to have breakfast an hour early on wedding day which made it so that my wife and I could have a great start. The Inn has an eye catching flow to it and is very clean. It is in a beautiful setting and the hosts stay on sight in a studio behind the garage. Mike would discretely check to make sure that the common areas stayed at a comfortable temperature and that everything remained in top shape. The beds were super comfortable and the rooms were spacious. If you want to feel pampered in the hills this is the place to stay.

Fran and Mike have left a very special place in our hearts. They are the warmest and most thoughtful hosts. Their home is immaculately clean, inviting and comfortable. North Canyon Inn, which Mike thoughtfully crafted, is located in the middle of Apple Hill. Come hungry for breakfast as Fran makes delicious meals, all customized to dietary requests. This sacred space will be one that my husband and I will visit each year. We met wonderful guests during our visit and enjoyed the generous pours during the porch happy hour. We thank Fran and Mike for your true hospitality and kindness. See you next year! - Whitney and Mike

This was my husband and I's first stay at a Bed and Breakfast. We normally go the AirBnB route but decided to do something different after finding North Canyon Inn on the Apple Hill website. Upon arrival Fran and Mike welcomed us with warm hospitality and quick tour of the property. We arrived at 4 PM which gave us plenty of time to get settled in before their happy hour at 5 PM on their beautiful screened porch. The happy hour was such a nice touch to our stay being able to mingle with the other guests and enjoy some local wines. We stayed in the Big Leaf Maple room which was very spacious and had more than enough room for my husband and I. The fire place and jetted jacuzzi tub was a nice touch to complete a relaxing weekend away from home. My only regret is that we didn't stay two nights instead of one, but now that is an excuse for us to go back. If you decide to stay at North Canyon Inn you will not be disappointed!

My wife and I had a great trip! Mike and Fran are awesome hosts. Rooms are beautiful, and immaculate. Breakfast was great, even had freshly baked cookies waiting. We had a great happyhour (or three) with hosts and the guests. Met some wonderful people as we drank good wine in the backyard around a campfire. (I believe the 1st of the year.) It was nice to see Apple Hill....but the highlight was this stay and the hosts hospitality. Don't hesitate to book.

I almost don't want to make this public as the Inn books quickly -- for good reason. But Mike and Fran were amazing hosts and the breakfasts were out of this world. Wine in the evening poured freely. The setting in the fall is magical. Wish we could have stayed longer. Until next time!

Great getaway….The North Canyon Inn Bed & Breakfast was nothing less than a very warm and charming place to stay. This beautiful place is set among gorgeous landscaping and wildlife. I saw a fawn and her babies one morning not 25 feet from a comfortable screened in back porch. Fran and Mike were outstanding host’s and Fran was an amazing cook. Definitely enjoyed the homemade cookies and Happy Hour on the porch as well. Fran was gracious enough to take the time to share her delicious recipes. They recommended wonderful places to visit in and around Apple Hill as well as great places to eat. Definitely felt like we made new friends…. We will be back Fran and Mike, with friends and family.Thank you so much, Bob and Terrie Schmidt ❤️

Lovely stay while visiting Apple Hill. Fran and Mike were wonderful, welcoming hosts. I loved Fran's goat cheese frittata and buttermilk pancakes. We stayed in the Ponderosa Pine room, which was beautiful and spacious. We enjoyed hanging out in the back patio as well away from the apple hill crowds.

I cannot say enough about this wonderful bed and breakfast! First it is situated in the most stunning area right in the middle of Apple Hill. Upon arrival we were greeted by Mike and Fran. They made us feel right at home and gave us a tour of the property. Very helpful in telling us about the happenings in the area. The property itself is a dream. The bigleaf maple room was spacious, new and clean! The common areas are beautiful. The back enclosed patio was so comfortable and great for getting outside but staying away from the inevitable outdoor bugs. They have a lovely koi pond and path up the hill into the trees with a fire pit and circular sitting area full of chairs some made from trees and the very comfy Adirondack Chairs. They were excellent in communication and were there for any request with no problem - Not to mention so personable and friendly. Fantastic hosts all around. The next morning the coffee and orange juice was flowing. Fran asked me at the beginning of our stay how we liked our coffee and sure enough everything was out and ready come breakfast time. We started breakfast with a delicious chia seed/yogurt/ strawberry dish which was more delicious than I could have imagined. Following that Fran made us a superb breakfast. Best I've had in a long time - asparagus frittata, roasted potatoes, tomatoes and sausage - just perfect. It was a perfect stay we would absolutely stay here again and if we are ever coming to Apple hill again this will be my first stop! Thanks Mike and Fran for hosting us you have a wonderful place!

North Canyon Inn Bed & Breakfast is our favorite place to stay when we come to Apple Hill! We have returned 5 times already! Fran & Mike have a beautiful treasure nestled in the woods there and they have made their accommodations so beautiful, relaxing and comfortable! We have been there as a couple and as a family. They are in a great location in the area to be able to visit the farms, wineries, breweries, and restaurants. Fran makes a wonderful breakfast each morning as well! We can also proudly say that Fran & Mike have become our friends! We would highly recommend staying there to unwind and have a relaxing retreat away from home! We definitely will be back again next year!!!

Everything about this stay was excellent, and Mike and Fran definitely make this place special. Not only are they great hosts, but also genuine and kind people. The house is really beautiful and spacious, and in our short time there we felt like family. Happy hour was a super fun addition, and we will dearly miss Fran's delicious breakfasts and cookies. We will definitely be coming back in the future!
