Full of hand-crafted, vintage, and one-of a kind decoration and details, this space was designed with love by all members of our family. We look forward to hosting you in our beloved home town. The Garden Room sits in the ideal location to enjoy all that Healdsburg has to offer. Just a block from the central plaza, fine-dining, wine tasting rooms and so much more.

Most-welcomed guests,

We hope that you, as visitors to this wonderful place, feel good in turn about your contribution to our community.

Happy stay!

Ann and Colin

Our stay at The Roost was awesome! Colin was a very attentive and gracious host. He met us immediately upon our arrival, showed us to The Roost, and went over all the amenities. If we had a question or request he was highly responsive and went that little extra to ensure we were taken care of. We found the bungalow to be very comfortable and we used the outdoor patio often, especially when having our morning coffee. There is no parking on property but street parking close by wasn't hard to find. Overall, we would definitely stay here again when we visit Healdsburg!

We had a fabulous time staying at the Roost! The location was perfect (less than a minute walk to central Healdsburg), and the room really comfortable and well equipped. Terry and Colin couldn’t have been more helpful - provided us with filtered water on demand and even dropped off umbrellas for us when it was raining!

Can’t say enough good things about this cottage! Colin was a perfect host, greeted us for check-in and gave us excellent hiking and winery recommendations (do yourself a favor and ask!). The cottage itself is small but as represented in photos, very nicely appointed, full of unique details and quality amenities (including local coffee and biscuits in the kitchenette, chilled water in the fridge). You have privacy yet it’s in an INCREDIBLE location just a block from downtown Healdsburg. We hope to be back!

perfect for a couple

We loved the location to the downtown activities of Healdsburg, so convenient for walking. Very clean and up to date apartment for a couple with small , private sitting area off the back for morning coffee or an afternoon book. Our hosts were very friendly, helpful and accommodating. We would definitely recommend the "Roost".

Excellent property in perfect location. The room is two blocks from the Healdsburg town square and all of the restaurants. It is very clean and decorated beautifully. The property owners live in site in a separate house and had excellent communication. Ann met us outside right when we arrived and showed us the property. She made sure we knew house to use all the appliances as well as the thermostat. I would absolutely stay here again.

Quick weekend getaway

This was a perfect spot for our quick 2-night getaway to Healdsburg. Perfect location just 1 block from downtown Healdsburg. The hosts were extremely welcoming (met us personally to check us in and show us the space and answer any questions, amenities were nice, etc.). No TV, and no speaker for streaming music from your phone, but for us that didn't matter because we just were not in the room very much.

We enjoyed our stay in the charming Garden Roost! The hosts were welcoming and easy to communicate with. Some suggestions we would offer to further enhance guests experience include: softer bedsheets, a microwave and toaster, and a user-friendly range. The gardener entering the private patio during the morning hour while operating a gas-powered leaf blower was somewhat intrusive. If not for the aforementioned elements, we would have rated the Roost as a 5 star accommodation.

Perfect location and price

We couldn't have been happier to have stayed in this ultra convenient cottage that allowed us to park our car and walk to all of the great shops and restaurants that Healdsburg has to offer. The cottage had all that we needed (maybe a TV would have been nice to catch the basketball game after dinner or watch a streaming show given the cold weather). The hosts were very helpful and gracious, and the communication was timely and appropriate. We look forward to staying again in warmer weather so we can take advantage of the spacious patio.

Great home away from home.

The garden roost was the prefect home base while in town for a family wedding! Colin was a wonderful host and provided lots of thoughtful extras (coffee and tea, with fresh cream in the fridge, and cookies from a local bakery even) he also had lots of helpful suggestions for places to eat, and places to go! The place was clean and bright, and he had even adjusted the temperature to make it very comfortable when we arrived! We would definitely stay again, the location was excellent - just a couple blocks to the square with lots of great restaurants and shops and the neighborhood was very quiet and charming!!

About the host

Hosted by Colin Carney

Host profile image
I grew up in Healdsburg and love all the ways this town has changed as well as those in which it has stayed the same. I truly enjoying welcoming visitors to this special place and helping them take advantage of everything it has to offer.

Why they chose this property

Healdsburg is a wine and food mecca that brims with world class cultural events throughout the year as well. It is uncommon to have such diversity and depth of culture in a small agricultural town setting. The natural beauty of Healdsburg and its surrounding valleys, as well as Sonoma County and the North Coast more broadly is demands to be explored between sipping and eating.

What makes this property unique

The main house on our property is an old farmhouse built in the 1850s. It is one of the original homes in Healdsburg and on the historic buildings list. Built in the town's earliest days, the house is within throwing distance of the plaza and right up against the downtown area. Location is everything. It truly makes all the difference to essentially be able to treat the downtown as an extension of our property. We hope you will enjoy the proximity as much as we do.
