Summary: Property is amazing. Very clean. I would caution anyone with difficulty climbing stairs to choose one of the ground floor units. Bring your own soap and shampoo for bathing. Overall a great accommodation in the heart of wine country

Summary: The fire alarm went off for no reason at 1:30 am and earlier that day. No hot water in the shower in master bedroom the duration of stay. The sink did have hot water. Called before booking and was told there were stairs but they were not steep. But that was not true, we had a person using a walker. Part of accommodation were rustic looking and part modern. It was a nice experience.

Summary: We found this gem last year when we were looking for a cozy place to stay while visiting relatives for Christmas. It is hard to be away from home for the holidays, but we wanted to be with family. We fell in love with this cozy alternative so much that we booked it for Christmas 2023. We were every bit as pleased this year!
