We loved our stay. The living space was cozy, inviting, warm, and had everything we could need for some time to relax and just be. The garden and the trails were a different kind of beauty to appreciate. We were welcomed by friendly hosts and greatly valued their recommendations of places to eat and explore. We would return in a heartbeat.

The beautiful countryside and gardens gave us the quiet escape we needed. The love that has gone into meticulously renovating this old farm property is evident, and the hosts are delightful.

A very quaint and beautiful space! I imagined it to be like a little cottage in Italy; down the street from the vineyard. New, quality, well decorated place. The flower gardens were so beautiful. It was like a little gem in the middle of rolling, green hills. Loved every bit of this charming space!

Weekend Getaway

It was such a great experience! The lodging itself is so cute and cozy! Kay was awesome and gave us tours and even helped us build a fire that night. Gave us info on the surrounding area. And honestly it was one of the most beautiful areas to stay in. All in all will definitely be going back again! Highly recommended!

Great location for visiting Vino in the Valley

The cottage was beautiful and a perfect location for our visit to Vino in the Valley. Kay greeted us upon arrival and gave us the tour. The location was great for a walk and nearby bike trails that we did prior to arrival. Everything was great, bed was very comfy and extra phone chargers were a bonus, as my husband forgot his. Thanks for your warm hospitality! highly recommend.
