A lovely, relaxing ,perfect little abode for 2. The outside is relaxing, and thoughtfully arranged. Table, chairs for outside meals, card playing, etc! Adirondack chairs with a foot stool and side table. Fresh fruits and veggies on the vine (as ripeness allows) . Near complete privacy, even from home owner…. your own courtyard, with no one else sharing. Quiet, peaceful, relaxing, to sit and read without interruptions! A vacation essential!
Inside… The bed was comfortable, plenty of pillows, bedding as needed. We did hear the neighbor’s rooster… but JUST barely! If we had had the fan on, would not have heard it. No TV -just a very basic bedroom.
Living room is simply arranged, TV with many channels, including sports; a trunk Full of movies. The comfy couch can accommodate 2 people sprawled out at the same time (“L” shaped couch). Carpet had just been cleaned.
Kitchen had enough coffee stocked to last… about 4months (really!) of dark robust coffee. We could grind it ourselves with the grinder provided, for the freshest coffee available. (If you don’t like strong coffee, bring something else). Full size fridge and stove, microwave, toaster and blender. No dishwasher. Kitchen table for four… Pots, pans utensils, etc provided.
Bathroom, no tub, but full shower with ample toiletries! Stacked washer and dryer - they worked very well. Water is hot and pressure great.
As for availability of host/hostess… impeccable. Donna answered questions, came over immediately to orientate us upon arrival, per my request. Easy entry and communication.
Distance: 25 mins from Bodega Bay/ 40 from Jenner/ 15 mins from Santa Rosa/ 1hr from Napa. The rides are full of gorgeous views- Red woods, Vineyards, you name it.
Don’t be fooled by thinking expensive = quality. Not the case here. We are so pleased we stayed here!! Just can’t say enough to this topic. We lacked for nothing and were very comfortable.
Did I mention that there are regular and organic grocers just ½ mile away? We walked to the organic grocer and coffee bar! And… you MUST go to Mom’s Apple Pie in Forestville, 5 mi. up Rte 116 for THE BEST chocolate cream pie and apple turnover (and likely every other item offered!) We ate at Fandees… delish breakfast! Loved our coastline hike from Shell beach north and south (And Bodega Bay!) Wineries… there are hundreds! And so many more things to enjoy close by.
You will do well here!! Enjoy what California has to offer in this area.
