Wonderful place for a couple’s getaway
My partner and I stayed for 2 nights at this very lovely garden cottage. The grounds are a beautifully landscaped garden setting which made for a very enjoyable, relaxing way to spend a couple getaway to wine country. After tasting some local wines we liked coming back to relax and refresh outside in the great weather we had. Joe was very available and communicative and responded to any questions we had within minutes, while also allowing our privacy. We enjoyed meeting his little dog Fergus who stopped by to say hello. Everything was as it looked on vrbo and spotless upon arrival. Next time we find ourselves back in Sonoma we hope to stay here again, if available. Thanks Joe!

Quiet, relaxing and great location.
Joe’s cottage was perfect for our 3 night stay in Sonoma. Very comfortable king size bed. Kitchenette is small, but all we needed for breakfast, coffeemaker, toaster and micro. Nicely decorated. I would warn anyone with mobility issues, like me needing knee surgery, this is not a walk in shower. It’s a beautiful claw foot tub with shower. Unit is nicely decorated. Highly recommend.

Great Sonoma stay
Was staying here for a weekend wedding and couldn’t have asked for a better spot. Centrally located, clean, and just as advertised. We had the pleasure of running into our host, Joe, one night and he was kind and cordial. Would recommend this stay to any 1-2 person group coming through Sonoma.

Comfy guest cottage in Sonoma
This guest cottage had everything we wanted for a stay in Sonoma. The space was roomy and comfortable. There is a small kitchenette; just right for breakfast before we went out exploring each day. It was a short drive to wineries, restaurants, or the Sonoma Plaza. And, like other reviewers, we loved visits from Ferguson each day.

We had such a lovely week here. Location was so close to Sonoma Plaza and all of the great restaurants and wineries in Sonoma. House was clean and comfortable, especially the bed. Joe was friendly and helpful. Best part of staying here is hanging out with Fergus who visited every day. He is going to love his new brother and sister in Las Vegas! 😉
