Great location and accommodations
Great location, stocked with tea, coffee, hair dryer and some toiletries. Joe and his adorable dog Fergus were very welcoming and also gave us privacy, despite the VRBO being a guesthouse on their property. Would definitely stay here again.

Cute cottage with good amenities.
We stayed 2 night at the end of September. Perfect for a couple of nights. The only complaint would be that’s not walking distance to downtown so you have to drive. There’s also no sidewalk so if you hence it and walk you have to walk on the road.

Perfect for us
This is a one bedroom house with large bath, bedroom, and living/dining with kitchenette. Everything worked. Very advanced large flat screen television which allowed us to watch the U S Open Tennis better than if we were there. The owner is very laissez faire which suited us fine. The house only accommodates two people.

Wonderful place for a couple’s getaway
My partner and I stayed for 2 nights at this very lovely garden cottage. The grounds are a beautifully landscaped garden setting which made for a very enjoyable, relaxing way to spend a couple getaway to wine country. After tasting some local wines we liked coming back to relax and refresh outside in the great weather we had. Joe was very available and communicative and responded to any questions we had within minutes, while also allowing our privacy. We enjoyed meeting his little dog Fergus who stopped by to say hello. Everything was as it looked on vrbo and spotless upon arrival. Next time we find ourselves back in Sonoma we hope to stay here again, if available. Thanks Joe!

Quiet, relaxing and great location.
Joe’s cottage was perfect for our 3 night stay in Sonoma. Very comfortable king size bed. Kitchenette is small, but all we needed for breakfast, coffeemaker, toaster and micro. Nicely decorated. I would warn anyone with mobility issues, like me needing knee surgery, this is not a walk in shower. It’s a beautiful claw foot tub with shower. Unit is nicely decorated. Highly recommend.

Was staying here for a weekend wedding and couldn’t have asked for a better spot. Centrally located, clean, and just as advertised. We had the pleasure of running into our host, Joe, one night and he was kind and cordial. Would recommend this stay to any 1-2 person group coming through Sonoma.

Comfy guest cottage in Sonoma
This guest cottage had everything we wanted for a stay in Sonoma. The space was roomy and comfortable. There is a small kitchenette; just right for breakfast before we went out exploring each day. It was a short drive to wineries, restaurants, or the Sonoma Plaza. And, like other reviewers, we loved visits from Ferguson each day.
