About this property

Wine Country Cottage in downtown Santa Rosa, CA

This lovely home is over 100 years old, built in 1885. Our lovely cottage is the place to stay.
Make yourself at home in our newly renovated craftsman cottage, with traditional wood accents and original hardwood floors. Comfortably blending modern conveniences with historic charm.
Our cottage has all your comforts from home and then some. You can relax in our garden suite, the french doors open up to our beautiful backyard garden. Enjoy sitting by our outdoor firepit or, relax in our classic suite that opens into the living area, for an even cozier atmosphere. Both rooms have large skylights in them for natural lighting. That may be an issue if sensitive to light. Play board games, watch T.V. or just relax by the fireplace with a glass of wine.

Curious to know what makes downtown Santa Rosa so wonderful? Well take a 5 minute stroll down the road, and visit our downtown district and enjoy some of the local crafted beers at our famous "Russian River Brewery", have some wine and cocktails at "Perch & Plow" or "Bird & The Bottle" (best Cosmo's in town). While you're here, visit some of our great restaurants, like our 5 star Ca'Bianca's Italian Restaurant, where every dish just melts in your mouth!
(PLEASE NOTE: because of it's location to our cottage. some noise after 10 pm on weekends may be a factor),
La Rosa Taqueria (Mexican Cuisine), Belly Left Coast Kitchen and Tap Room. (American Cuisine) and so much more. Shop at some of our cute, swanky boutiques or grab a coffee at one of our local coffee shops. Wine tasting galore at many of our tasting rooms, whatever you fancy, Santa Rosa has it all.


During our spring and summer months, enjoy the weekly farmers market every Wednesday night , as well as many weekend events in our historic downtown and railroad square.

A pleasant stay

The cottage is easily accessible and attractive. It is also amply supplied to meet most needs. There is some noise from the restaurant next door that has garden seating for lunch and dinner, but the sounds of diners is mostly muffled. One plus for sure in that Starbucks is about two blocks away! Overall it was a pleasant stay.
