The reservation includes the Main House, which sleeps 8 guests, the Maisonette (6 guests) and the Chalet (2 guests), large garden, Campo Belo river natural pool, wood-burning sauna, waterfalls, trails, and a chapel . Now we also have a nice gourmet space with barbecue, oven and wood stove and equipped kitchen. The dining area has a large spacious table.

Viver - estar junto a natureza
O fim de semana foi excelente! Já estivemos outras 6 vezes nesta propriedade, porém foram realizadas melhorias de infra estrutura, resultando em melhor conforto e comodidade. O serviço de preparo das refeições e apoio esta nota 10!

mais um ótimo final de semana
Sou visitante frequente do Rancho São Carlos e cada vez gosto mais. Pessoalmente, vou para estar em contato com a natureza e curtir o imenso rio com pequenas cachoeiras que cruza a propriedade. Fico feliz que meu cãozinho é bem vindo. Os funcionários são muito simpáticos e os quartos são confortáveis.

Lindo e Sereno
I have rented vacation homes with my family for almost 10 years and I can honestly say that Rancho São Carlos is a very rare piece of property on this market. It is absolutely unique, next to Brazil’s oldest national park – one of the few surviving examples of the Atlantic Rain Forest (Mata Atlântica). The ranch is cut by a pristine river that forms a gorgeous pool, large enough for plenty of swimming and diving. Sweating up in the wood burning sauna and jumping into the cool river is just awesome. The grounds are beautiful and the accommodations are charming. The main house and smaller shed are rustic, yet well-equipped, clean and comfortable. Marcos is a great guy, easy to work with, and the staff at the ranch is professional and helpful. If you are lucky like we were, you might also be visited by a family of capuchin monkeys! I highly recommend this place.

Paraíso
Já frequento o Rancho São Carlos há muito tempo e é sempre um enorme prazer estar de volta. Com especial destaque à sauna à lenha acompanhada de banho de rio que foto nenhuma faz jus, noites de sono tranquilo, além da grande hospitalidade do pessoal do Sítio. Recomendo muito!

Sensacional
Já frequento o Rancho São Carlos há muitos anos e sempre é uma enorme satisfação estar de volta. O lugar é simplesmente encantado, com destaque pra sauna à lenha seguida de banho de rio da cachoeira logo em frente. Além da hospitalidade, e das noites tranquilas de descanso. Nota 10.

Pra curtir e descansar!
O RSC é excelente local para ficar com os amigos e com a família para descansar e curtir. É um terreno muito lindo, arborizado e com três casas amplas, cuja arquitetura é linda e a decoração refinada. Os quartos são muito confortáveis, com luminária, roupa de cama e banho disponíveis e muito limpos, sem qualquer traço de umidade que são típicos de regiões frias e úmidas, como Itatiaia. A cozinha é bem servida de equipamentos e louças. O serviço de copa, cozinha e limpeza é exemplar! Estão de parabéns!

Beleza natural impressionante da Mata Atlântica
Apesar da beleza, o Rancho São Carlos carecia de uma estrutura mais organizada nas casas. Com a nova administração que chegou, agora tive à disposição: empregada excelente que cozinha, roupa de cama, mesa e banho (o que não existia), além de Sky e internet. Parabéns pelas mudanças.
