Comfy, Cozy Getaway for Two

We had such a lovely stay in Sebastopol. The guest house was clean, quiet, well equipped, and perfectly comfortable for a long weekend getaway for two. The location was ideal for checking out the quaint downtown area, as well as exploring the wide array of nearby wineries. We would absolutely stay here again, and highly recommend it for couples or solo travelers.

Perfect Sebastopol wine country guest house

Everything was better than advertised. The kitchen was well stocked, communication with the property owner was outstanding, and it exceeded expectations in every way. Super close to downtown and the Barlow. We will be back again soon!

Prefect getaway spot!

This is our second stay at this wonderful spot. We love the space and feel so comfortable. It’s perfect for two or for exploring on your own. Great walk ability to great restaurants, shopping and breweries. It’s very central. So you can take easy, short trips to wine tasting, beaches, and the redwoods. And Mary is an excellent host, with a beautiful garden. It’s a quiet neighborhood with lots of birds enjoying the trees and shrubs. You’ll love it.
Relax on the private patio.

Fall Retreat

Comforting and peaceful guesthouse. Everything necessary within walking distance on what might be the shortest street in Sebastopol. Yet the coast and vineyards are an easy drive. The house was fresh and new with a lot of thought to details that made it feel like home. It was wonderful for me.

Cottage in Sebastopol

My husband and I came up to Sonoma County for some business mixed with pleasure. Mary's guesthouse was in the perfect location for both parts of our trip. The house was well stocked and we made many of our meals in the fully equipped kitchen. The weather for nearly every day was beautiful so we enjoyed sitting on the deck in the evenings with our glass of wine. Another major plus was the location. It's literally walking distance to downtown Sebastopol and the Barlow so many many options for eating, tasting and shopping. We had a wonderful stay and we can't wait to come back!
