We were very pleased with this unit! Very quiet and private and well protected in a quiet neighborhood. Never saw any neighbors Great location with close proximity to everything we chose to do. Golf at Northwood, walk in Armstrong Woods, time on the coast and dinner in town. Well appointed, clean, super comfortable bed. Beautiful view of the vineyard off the back deck and from the living area. We chose to have take out Pizza and wine for dinner on the deck one nite and it was lovely. So quiet and peaceful.We did not give this an overall 5 stars only because of the sulfuric odor coming from the kitchen and bathroom faucets when running hot water. Shower wasn’t as noticeable. Everything else was great and we thoroughly enjoyed it.

The cottage was clean and comfortable and we loved the front deck with the curtains for privacy, as well as the balcony which overlooks a small vineyard. The place is inaccurately listed however as a one bedroom where as it is a small studio. We rented it for a mother/daughter get away and were disappointed to see that it was a studio. We didn’t mind sleeping together, but I wake up early and she sleeps in. Also we booked for 4 nights and only one hand towel 2 wash cloths and 2 towels were provided. Which is ok for one or two nights but not enough for a four day stay. It states to leave the window open during showers although the neighbors can see in through the window. It would be nice to have a curtain or blinds to close. The sun also is very intense in the afternoons in the bathroom.

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.

Response from VrboOwner on 12 May, 2026
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!
