    The most magical memorable place we’ve visited. Cozy, interesting and romantic.

    If I had to pick something that wasn’t 100% up to par with the rest of my stay I’d have to say the bed was a little hard for my liking.

    A beautifully decorated little cottage hidden in a treasure cove of peaceful tranquility. The pictures online do not do justice to how magical these secret cottages are. Walking into the garden entrance feels like walking into something out of a children’s fairytale book. The cottages themselves are stocked with everything I needed and then some. The attention to detail was amazing. The hostess, Karen, went above and beyond to make sure we had all we needed and was there to answer any questions we had about our stay. There were many options for drinks and dining just a few minutes walking distance. We ended up eating at the Jack London pub. The food and drinks were both reasonably priced and delicious. This has been by far my favorite place I have stayed in the Santa Rosa area. We will definitely be back, and we’re very excited to hear they are opening up their own bar onsite.

    My husband did not care for skylight in Cottage 1 because he wanted to sleep in, but I didn’t mind. Cottage 4 is perfection!

    Quiet, romantic, and cozy. Love the view of the creek in the back, the in-room jacuzzi, and the cute quaintness of the property. Parking is easy, not crowded, and very close to the cottages.

    Nothing!

    Truely everything about it! Beautiful setting. The room was so romantic, from the decor to the steam shower, which my boyfriend loved! The outdoor seating was just so serene! I loved the fact there were only 9 cottages. Small and perfect! The location had everything one would want. On top of its proximity to Sonoma and Kentwood. No need to drive just hop in a Lyft or Uber. While in Glen Ellen no need to drive as everything is in walking distance. Will definitely return!

    The surrounding environment of course, but also that bit of magic that the personalized decorum imbued.

    Absolutely magical. Like a thicket from a Disney movie without the need for personal tragedy lol. Everyone around there in the neighborhood was friendly (I play a lot of Pokémon go so am out a lot) and all the staff I encountered were boisterous and helpful
