Great place, close to most things. Very clean and had a fully stocked kitchen. Could have used a throw blanket, but otherwise everything we needed. There were no check out procedures listed anywhere, so it would be nice to have that visible in the house.

Great Place to Stay

We were in the area for a wine tasting event and found the Alto Pass Wine Trail Loft to be the perfect place to stay. The rental was comfortable and well equipped and the location was perfect.

Absolutely perfect! The place is spacious, clean, stylish, comfy and classy! We are already planning a return! We visited Owl Creek, Also Pass and Von Jakob wineries, Flam's orchard and Alto Clay Works all so very close! I recommend hitting all those spots! The bar across the street looked very nice but we ran out if time and saved it for the next time! Don't hesitate to book this gem!

Perfect Getaway Spot

Alto Pass Loft is a great property located perfectly close to wineries and other amenities, yet far enough away from the hustle and bustle we were looking to get away from. From booking to check-in, through our stay and check-out, was convenient and hassle free. The property is ADORABLE and exactly as shown in the pictures. Everything we needed was already there (kitchen items/spices/coffee, extra towels/toiletries). The hot tub was such an added perk and made our stay even more relaxing and enjoyable. Our host, Steve, was amazing with communication from booking to check-out and the welcome basket of snacks was super thoughtful!I would absolutely recommend Alto Pass Loft and being hosted by Steve.
