Loved the coziness of the cabin -- undisturbed, no television, plenty of coffee, and a lovely light breakfast in the frig! Easy access to the winery where there was a great ambiance and such friendly service. Loved the wine flight, and Chef made a custom, hot brunch for us! Kimberly made our stay comfortable and we loved the friendly dogs roaming the property!

We arrived exhausted and checked into the small cabin on the property. We unloaded our suitcases, from the car, and headed to the winery. The Winery lacked ambiance to say the least. The food and wine were excellent. The Cabin: Beware! After dinner we returned to the cabin and laid down to rest. Immediately we noticed the bamboo used for the ceiling which would allow insects to drop through and possibly onto the bed. A closer looked revealed spiders crawling on the walls and no TV. We promptly loaded up our car and got out of there. The property manager was notified, via text, but our complaint went unaddressed. I wish I could upload photos! Honestly I don’t know how they can continue to accept reservations for this shack.

No Showers during stay
I understand the concept they are trying to achieve with the little bungalow. it's one room with a bathroom, however there are no amenities. the refrigerator barely works I was unable to shower the entire time I was there as the shower only was good enough to rinse the body it was impossible to be able to wash your hair and getting the soap off after you soaped your body was a half hour process. (They have a new refund policy so checking out and moving to a different place was out of the question or I would have lost my $400 for my three-night stay) Unfortunately the bed was okay but it seemed to lean towards the center but I think it needs additional supports as the mattress is one of those foamy ones.

We are very sorry for your experience. We generally do not have this response. This is a basic cabin more luxurious accommodations are at our INN as listed on our website. Most people really like it, but its not 350 its was 89 dollars, less than motel 8 or any other motel in town. Next time, please let management know so they have the option to upgrade you to another room if you are not satisfied

Remote cabin peaceful nights
The cabin is remote and quiet. I did not stay or visit the Inn. The cabin is an older building, with it's issues. If you want a place to look perfect, you will pay more for it. AC took a bit to cool the place down, ( July 2020) no ceiling fan to assist in air flow. Being remote, in the woods, means you have a few more insects than a hotel, but I did not mind getting back to nature. No wifi, no TV, just you, a room, and a bathroom. The porch looked nice, but too hot to enjoy when I was there. Simple stay for a decent price.

Overall it was an interesting experience. The grounds are gorgeous. The main B&B exceptional (for the area way too pricey) The cottage where we stayed was rustic and quaint, however, it was in need of a few minor repairs (sealing wall openings, clearing outside weeds, removing bees nests, cleaning porch furniture etc) Once these minor fixes are done it will be outstanding. All in all we liked it. The Cellar Door (on site wine tasting & eatery) it’s self was relaxed and comfortable, service very laid back (perhaps too much -we said we were checking in cottage they never asked ours names or for ID) We had the cheese board... very nicely done, however, again a slight miss, they left items listed on menu off (nuts & jams). They did prepare us a nice bundle of breakfast items for the cottage. The sourdough bread was awesome and the wines fantastic. My only other comment - while pets are permitted signage asks they be leashed, there were a number of large dogs unleashed roaming from table to table (while eating) - these were I assume management or owners pets as guests had their pets leashed. These few things are why I can’t give it a 5 star review. I would stay here again.

Cupid froze us in the Gone with the Zin Room
A beautiful 100 year old B&B with some updated amenities. The winery has spectacular wines and delicious food! Unfortunately, when we were there the heat wasn't working properly in our room even though the rest of the house was cozy warm during a cold night. I know we weren't there to watch TV but it is good for you to know that there isn't one in the room but in a common area. Also, we had a breakfast suited for a King! It was "Cook's choice" and it wss the morning after Valentine's and we had steak and eggs. Since it was Valentine's Day and also our Anniversary we spent a lot to stay there but not compensated for the freezing room!

The thermostats must have gone haywire due to the storm earlier in the week. Also thank you for your kind comments on the rest of your stay. We do not advertise TVs at all, so no one expects to0 much in this area. But we value your feedback.

Very awkward and misleading experience. The staff is lacking in how to treat and great a guest thats driven hours just to stay at their establishment. This place is beautiful but chaotic. My husband booked the "cottage" for a romantic weekend getaway. I was so excited! We get to the vinyard at 2.30pm on Friday 5/3. The cottage wasnt ready because they didnt book our reservation. We were understanding. Went into town for dinner and came back to settle in for the night. We were surprisingly taken off of the vineyard and that's where it gets sketch. The cottage aka shed was in the someone's back yard. The surroundings were not tidy and put together to say the least. My heart sank but I put on a happy face. We walk in the shed, and it smells of old mold, the furnishings look like it came from Goodwill, the shower had a clump of hair, stale coffee in the pot, trash on the floor. The place looked like a 20 year old guy lived there complete with electric guitar and amp.

The property is in a beautiful private setting with vineyards and a winery bar/patio for tastings and a small restaurant. Down the road is the big house with rooms. It is beautifully decorated. Yet, when you stay there, you are on your own to figure things out, if you can. Bed was so uncomfortable and lumpy it took until 4am to briefly doze off. The room was stiffling hot. Yet the control outside didn't help. The only solution would have been to sleep with door wide open which we didn't want to do with others in inn. The lights were on in the landing outside our room and we tried every switch to turn off but couldn't. Our door was glass covered with a curtain so light shining in room all night. There was not a single cup or glass in room..and no bottled water anywhere. So if you were thirsty, you had to use your hand as a cup in the sink. Way over-priced for such negatives. Food in restaurant mediocre. $45 for waygu filet that was dry and grainy.

Cabin was peaceful just seemed like it was thrown together for us. Sheets were covered in hair or something.. just felt dirty.. Was woke up by a barking dog on our porch which was ok but when we opened the door to leave we were greeted by a German Shepherd that growled an the hair was up on the back of his neck so we had to wait a little bit then he left but heard us outside an came back , we finally scared him off an got our truck loaded... I guess if we stay again. Give earlier notice.. Very friendly people an stayed late to let us in just wish we had a room in the house ...

The cabin looked like it hadnt been cleaned. I found 10 or 12 dead wasps and killed 4 or 5 more inside the room.. the tile step in the shower had tiles broken off on it. I called and complained. We got "upgraded" to the gone with the zin room in the main house. My wife lifted the sheets and the mattress cover. We found what appeared to be bed bugs or fleas on the mattress. We packed our stuff and left. All of the staff was at the restaurant for the big grand opening so we didn't have anyone to tell why we were leaving. I'm contacting Expedia in an attempt to be refunded. This ruined our 19th anniversary.
