Great House, Great Location
My husband and I had a wonderful week at the Carma Cottage. The location just off Healdsburg Square makes it so easy to dine, shop, and visit wineries — no car needed! The house itself is very comfortable and there is an ample kitchen and dining area for nights you would rather stay in and cook. Would recommend with enthusiasm!

Fabulous cottage in downtown Healdsburg
What a perfect spot from which to explore Healdsburg! The location couldn't be better for walking to everything downtown, and also to the Seghesio winery. The home is beautiful, well decorated, and stocked with everything you need in the kitchen. Good attention to detail. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Cute house; great location. It’s a little farther than I thought to drive back and forth from Napa, but still a great place. Happened to be there during the big parade which was an added bonus. Only issue the upstairs bedroom was very hot; never cooled down and had to sleep downstairs on the couch.

Amazing location, so walkable. House was incredibly clean. My only issue was that I thought the couch would be a pull out, but it was just a couch so one of us was sleeping on a couch vs. a bed.

Great spot steps from everything
Perfect for a family or two (close) couples - beds are cozy, kitchen is well-equipped, and the place is perfect. Worth noting that the only bathroom opens up to the dining/kitchen area, so modest cohabitants might find that awkward. All in all, a great place!

Darling home yet please see important notes below
First of all, I want to say how adorable, cozy, well equipped and inviting this historic, well kept home is. Close proximity to everything and within walking distance to it all. However, as much as I really want to give a 5 star review, I was torn on what to accurately choose because of two very important things that played a very big part in the stay. One thing was the old authentic stair case. Very high step between each step, narrow in size. This made bringing up a larger suitcase very difficult. The second thing, even more of a detriment, was the shower/tub. My mom, being a fairly "young" 83 year old, was absolutely unable to "climb" into the tub to shower. Fortunately, she slept downstairs and did not have to endure the stairs. But, unfortunately, she was not able to shower one single time. Thankfully, our home was a 5 minute drive away, so I had to pick her up whenever she wanted to bathe. This should be indicated in the notes as to the difficulty in carrying larger luggage pieces up the stairs and the difficulty in an elderly person safely getting into the tub/shower to bathe. I believe if these things mattered to a future guest, they should be made aware ahead of time. In the past I had two rental properties myself. I made it very clear that there was a lengthy staircase and provided pictures just incase that was important to someone before booking.

This property is really charming and super comfortable, very well stocked. Slightly busy street, but within walking distance of the Square. Everything is very high-quality. there is only one bathroom. We stay in VRBO properties a lot and everything in this cottage is high-quality, comfortable, and well thought out.
