Very cute property overlooking the vineyard. Guerneville was warm when we visited but the unit stayed cool and we opened up all the windows at night to let the coastal air in. I would stay again!
The property is very cute and well appointed. Thoughtful details throughout the loft. The decor is a bit fragile - two small lamps, for essential lighting, teeter when touched. I didn't appreciate having to request that excessively high 1,500 refundable deposit be returned.

Thank you so much for the feedback re the lamps! I will
Look into those. And just so you know, I don’t control how much the deposit is nor when you get it returned to you. That seems to be between you & VRBO. All I can do, as owner, is make a claim if there is damage & since I did not, I gather there is a set window of time the company uses to allow for claims & then it gets returned to you. Hope you had a nice stay otherwise!
Beautiful view from the back deck. Covered front deck with comfortable clean patio furniture. Clean studio with nice furnishings and decor. Kitchen had everything we needed. Standard coffee maker bring grounds not pods like us. Quiet at night with good stargazing.
