Blossom Sanctuary · Scott Valley Life

Colt Riley stewards Blossom Sanctuary, a private retreat house in Etna, California, and writes Scott Valley Life, its journal of the valley.

Blossom Sanctuary

Blossom Sanctuary sits on about 4.2 acres of terraced gardens a short walk from Main Street in Etna, in Scott Valley in Siskiyou County. Guests book the whole house: three bedrooms for up to six, a wood stove, a full kitchen and a concierge they can reach any time. It is independently owned, and the house in Etna is the first Blossom location.
