We had a wonderful stay at this quaint vineyard retreat! The property is absolutely beautiful—surrounded by vineyards, rolling hills, and gorgeous sunsets. It was the perfect getaway for both us and our two dogs, who loved exploring the area. The cottage was spotless, cozy, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed. We loved waking up to birdsong and enjoying our morning coffee overlooking the vines. If you’re looking for a relaxing escape filled with nature, wine, and comfort (plus a very dog-friendly environment!), this is the perfect spot. We can’t wait to come back!

The casita was adorable, clean, and quiet, which is exactly what I was hoping for. I was in town doing a book signing, so I was exhausted from talking to people when I got there. It was perfect to unwind with a glass of wine! The views are so lovely. I wound up coming alone because of a last minute change, and I was a little worried in advance about staying out there on my own instead of at a hotel. I didn't have a single issue! Everyone at the tasting room was so nice, and they gave great recommendations for things to do in the area while I was there. I didn't bring my dog, but I think she would have loved it. Sometimes people want to know about kitchens: fridge, nespresso (a true blessing), toaster oven/air fryer, microwave, and dinnerware. I would not plan to cook anything big there, but I did make breakfast for myself in the toaster oven every day and reheated some leftovers. Very romantic and perfect for a couple!

Wine was a bonus!

Property was beautiful - we wish we could have stayed longer. We did a tasting and the bartender was very helpful and friendly (I don't remember her name, but she said it might be her last shift before having a baby....).
