This is a hidden, quiet gem. We loved our stay. The room was spacious and clean. The bed was comfortable and we loved having a porch to sit outside and have a glass of wine. It was too cold to take advantage of the public sitting area by the river but... next time!
Very cozy and discreet. Perfect getaway if you have a weekend planned in the area and want somewhere quiet and calm to unwind after. Communicative and helpful staff, lots of great little touches throughout made for a great experience. Would definitely stay here again!

My daughter and I had a wonderful stay in Cottage 1. Very spacious, clean and delightfully decorated room. The little snacks were a nice touch. Walking distance from the market, restaurants and a French bakery. Will definitely come back when the weather is warmer!
This is an ideal weekend getaway. Self check-in, in-room hot tub and fireplace, and very close to several local wineries. There’s also a convenience store within a few hundred feet that has craft beer, wine, and basic grocery items (open until 11pm most days). Highly recommend.
Lovely view of the water and there are so many thoughtful little touches in the room. Really appreciated the snacks and the jetted tub was the highlight of the stay. Plus there's a fireplace and it's right next to one of my favorite restaurants, the Glen Ellen Star! Perfect little getaway
What an awesome, quaint, peaceful little hideaway! We loved it. Glen Ellen is a short drive to all the Sonoma wineries and t min from multiple great hiking trails. Cant wait to get back! And the owners - Karen and Chris - are fantastic hosts and very helpful with great local advice!
Beautiful cottage on a beautiful property...and it feels like stepping into a warm fantasy retreat. Would highly recommend to visitors going to Glen Ellen.

A great quiet, beautiful, relaxing near lots of things to explore.
We loved this cute little inn! Such a treasure in Glen Ellen. Everything was perfect, from arrival to departure. Love how close it is to restaurants, small grocers and wine tasting rooms. We want to come back and stay again. Thank you for the best hospitality and care.
WONDERFUL! This Inn is a little gem. We stayed in the cottages and it was quaint, very pretty, treats left snd extremely comfortable. Our room had a refrigerator, jetted tub and a steam shower which was wonderful after a brisk walk around the town. We can’t wait to go back (we were there in Jan) to spend even more time enjoying the property and patio. Wonderful communications and the easiest checkin and out ever! 10/10 for sure!
The secret cottages are in a great location, perfect for a short stay in the tiny town of Glen Ellen. The proprietor is engaged and responsive. I stayed for 5 nights, which was a bit of a challenge as cottage #6 is small, a bit dark and not as functional as I would have liked. There is a lot of extraneous stuff in a small space and limited surface area for ones things. A few suggestions: please add towel hooks in the bathroom and replace one of the 3 benches with a small desk or vanity; counter space is needed to improve functionality. Also brighter light bulbs would be a nice improvement.
We have been to The Secret Cottages many times before, delightful and relaxing.
Very peaceful and convenient for Sonoma and Rutherford. Also close are the springs.
