About Willi Krauss
I retired to the Mother Lode from an active and stressful career in the Bay Area.
Willi Krauss purchased this House in 2003
Why Willi Krauss chose Douglas Flat
I fell in love with Murphys and knew I had found something special when I first saw Milfiori. I love the historical buildings on the property and the beautiful garden. It is magical.
What makes this House unique
I do antique and vintage sales out of the old "Italian Store" twice a year. You might be able to do some shopping right on the property. And I love to give a tour of the property.

Many thanks for a lovely, relaxing weekend.
Milfiore is one of the most appealing properties we've ever stayed at. I travel with a group of women who schedule a retreat every year in Northern California and we've stayed at a variety of homes, cabins, lodges, etc. This lovely property was one of the best. Willi, our host, couldn't have been sweeter and more accommodating. A very memorable weekend for sure.

relaxing
Beautiful home that has a lot of love and care put into it. Plenty of space. Comfortable beds.
Wonderful Milifoiri
Thank you for sharing your home with us this April 22 to 25, 2019
You made us feel so at home and experiencing the warmth and history of the entire grounds. We felt like we were somewhere in France. Our time was very memorable .
Beautiful, well-appointed house
I stayed here recently with four other ladies, and we greatly enjoyed our stay.
The house and grounds are beautiful. It was quite cold or we would have spent some time outside, since the patio is lovely and there's plenty of outdoor seating to enjoy. The kitchen is fairly modern and the house is well heated so we were comfortable despite the cold. The house was clean and we were provided plenty of linens, blankets and towels. Beds were comfortable, and we all enjoyed having our own bathrooms attached to our bedrooms. The nearby town (1.5m) is close enough to provide any immediate grocery needs, and there's lots of wine tasting right up the highway.
We were only there for a short weekend but we greatly enjoyed our stay, and Willi was a wonderful host. She walked us through the house, explained the basics and then left us to our own devices. We'd definitely stay again.
Charming home with lots character
The house is definitely special and history behind is amazing. Unfortunately for us it rain while we were there so we didn’t get the opportunity to enjoy the grounds. Willie is a very sweet lady and was happy to help with everything, which was really nice.
Note, this is not the house for you if you like your privacy. Willie lives on the property, right across the driveway from the house and there are no blinds/curtains so your privacy is limited. This didn’t really bother us but I know some people would be uncomfortable with that.
I believe everyone who comes to this area should send some time Milfiori. You won’t be disappointed, so much character and charm.
