Bohemian Artist's Cottage in Wine Country

The Bohemian Cottage:
Our charming 100-year-old cottage has been gently refurbished with all of the conveniences, for your comfortable and pleasant stay in the center of Sonoma County's Wine Country. Enjoy your coffee on the front porch, or lounge on the back patio with a glass of wine under the party lights, sheltered by 300-year-old oaks.

The Area:
Burbank Gardens Historic District is 4 blocks south of downtown, and is the perfect base to explore wineries and the coast. Walking distance to shops, cafes, galleries, theaters, parks, plus very easy freeway access. One block from a network of walking/ biking trails that extend throughout the county.

This is on a small side street of cute little cottages just off a main drag. People walk dogs, ride bikes, and stroller kids. Also, they stroller dogs. It is vibrant, fun, multi-cultural, and a little bit funky! Just around the corner is TripAdvisor's #1 rated breakfast place, Dierks Parkside Cafe. No need to cook breakfast, they crank up the bacon every morning. Spinster Sisters is a popular California Cuisine dinner restaurant one block away.

We garden and make jewelry at the rear of the property, where we have the art studio.

This cottage is handy, attractive, clean, and just what we wanted. Nicely equipped kitchen; outdoor seating both on the porch and in a backyard patio. The bed was perfect. Walking distance to downtown St. Rosa, and not far from the railroad museum district. Cannot recommend enough.

This home was absolutely wonderful! The attention to detail was exceptional—it was beautifully and thoughtfully decorated, comfortable, and clearly designed with guests in mind. The ownerstruly thought of everything to make our stay enjoyable.We especially loved the wonderful porch, which was the perfect place to sit with our morning coffee, and the great backyard for grilling, relaxing, and enjoying the outdoors.The little extras really made a difference: half-and-half waiting in the refrigerator, paper and a pen, a flashlight, a lighted step-down, a cozy comforter for cool nights, and even toothpaste along with the other bathroom toiletries. These thoughtful touches made us feel so welcome and cared for.It’s clear that a lot of thought and care went into creating this home. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily return!

This has become our go-to place to stay in Santa Rosa. The location is convenient, the gardens in front and back are beautiful, the neighborhood is friendly and quiet, and the actual cottage is spacious, welcoming, clean, and comfortable. The laundry access makes this ideal for packing light and/or extending a stay. We think of it as “home” now when visiting the area. Patti is a perfect host. We look forward to returning soon!

Great property for a visit to Santa Rosa

We loved the property and had a great experience in Santa Rosa! The location was perfect for us as it was walking distance to downtown. Everything was perfect and as advertised. We will stay here next time we travel to Santa Rosa and would recommend.

The Best Vacation Rental!

I have stayed at The Cottage multiple times and each stay gets better than the last! I can’t say enough good things about it: Safe & quiet neighborhood, great location, super clean, fully stocked, great patio, lovely front porch, communicative host and great little touches that make it feel like home. Highly recommend and I’ll definitely be back!

Patti is a terrific host! This was our third stay, and the place was even more perfectly set up than on previous visits. In the Santa Rosa winter, the heating in each room kept the cottage warm. The lighting is great, bed is super-comfortable, kitchen is fully equipped, and shower is delightful and stocked with toiletries and towels of every size. Everything works great, including the laundry in the outdoor area. The place is quiet, making it easy to sleep, work, read, and relax. We had a perfect stay, and look forward to returning to this cozy, colorful, and welcoming home away from home.

This cottage is clean, cozy but spacious, and in a great location for both walking around downtown Santa Rosa and driving around Sonoma County. It has a wonderful outdoor space and is fully stocked. Patty makes this place feel like a true home away from home. I will definitely be back!

Great base in an interesting historic and artsy neighborhood central enough to enjoy everything Santa Rosa has to offer, even without a car. The cottage is nicely decorated, wonderfully comfortable, and equipped with all that you could need for a longer stay: full kitchen, 2 real bedrooms with ultra-comfortable beds, great shower and bathtub, washer and dryer, and lovely backyard area for sitting, sipping drinks, stowing bicycles, watching hummingbirds, and enjoying the breezes.Communication with Patti was friendly and seamless, and we felt right at home and, on leaving, already eager to return.

The Old Cottage

The property was an excellent selection for our 4-night stay. So much nicer than a hotel. Very clean, well appointed with full kitchen, 2 bedrooms, bath and nice den. Quiet neighborhood with on-site parking. The owner was delightful to visit with while we toured the back yard flower beds. Would certainly rebook in the future.

Absolutely Wonderful!

The cottage met and exceeded our expectations! Comfortable beds; very clean; very cute porch and patio. The neighborhood is walkable and safe. There is guest parking provided in front of the porch. We had the opportunity to speak with Patti a couple of times and she is delightful. I highly recommend this VRBO and if we ever find our way back to the Santa Rosa area again, I hope it is available.

Great little cottage near downtown SR!

I stayed at the cottage for two nights. Patti was a wonderful host! The cottage was very clean and well-equipped. The area is quiet and residential, but close to downtown and convenient to freeways. Folks with mobility issues should be aware of a large step down in the middle of the cottage, but it is well marked and wasn’t a problem for me. I would stay here again if I’m in Santa Rosa!

About the host

Hosted by Patti

Host profile image
We love living in town, although our neighborhood feels like the country, with giant redwoods, heritage oaks, and rambling cottage gardens. We garden, do a little light carpentry, bike, and volunteer with Meals on Wheels. We enjoy practicing the art of being hospitable, which we learned at the knee of our folks, who hailed from Texas, where nuestra casa es su casa!

Why they chose this property

Walk to everything!

What makes this property unique

Close to everything, with plenty of outdoor spaces in which to relax and enjoy that fabulous California weather!
