"My dear sisters Margaret and Linda, we (Diane, myself, Al, and Debra) had a wonderful and blessed time visiting you at Mount Zion biblical Gardens this past Saturday. We enjoyed the fellowship, the garden walk - the cherries were delicious, the hike around the grounds, the hike up the Passion path, and the climb up to the foot of the Cross. And what an awesome way of ending our visit with a barbecue and the inspiring testimonies we shared with one another, we're looking forward to our next visit. May God bless you, your families, and ministry. "

"Thank you for letting us stay in your wonderful, warm, cozy house. The movies were wonderful to see and we truly liked the accompany of the horse outside. The cookies you packed were truly amazingly delicious. The two bedrooms were very cozy, soft and warm. Also the cavern and Big Trees was very fun to visit, especially visiting the cave. Thank you."

"My sister and I stayed one night at the Biblical Gardens in Glory Manor and will never forget it. The cottage had this cozy ambience that reminded us of home. The rooms were comfortable and clean, and the kitchen had all the necessary cookware and utensils plus tea and cookies! The outside view was otherworldly. We walked along the Biblical Garden trails and enjoyed the lake, giant oak trees and forest flowers. I can honestly say the Biblical Garden is one of the most tranquil and captivating places I've experienced."

"Great place. We came here to just get away and relax and found exactly what we were looking for. Our cottage was very clean and comfortable. The views during our hike were just amazing. Area was calm and peaceful. Good for meditating. Our host was sweet. Margaret left us freshly baked cookies and oranges on our patio right before checkout. They were so good. I will definitely be returning."

"We spent six days at Serenity Haven and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Margaret is a very sweet lady and interested in ensuring your stay is pleasant. The house was neat and tidy and comfortable for the two of us. Always nice to have a kitchen and we BBQ’ed in the evening several nights. You will enjoy the openness of this property including the three acre pond. Take a carrot for the very friendly horse Star. Several mornings and evenings, we viewed the “march of the turkeys” as they travelled near the house. Many places to explore in the vicinity including Angels Camp, Columbia, Murphy’s and several wineries. Take a drive to Lake Alpine at 8,000 ft elevation. We had a picnic at this pristine lake. I took my boat and we fished at New Melones Lake a couple of days. A very nice place for a couples get away."
