This was the second time we stayed here. The first being 2 years prior. Both visits were wonderful. The inn is beautifully restored and very well maintained. The rooms and common areas are immaculate. the location is perfect for hitting all of the Russian River wineries. We have our favorites but Diana as well as other guests at the inn recommended a few others that are now on our must visit list.
Diana and Allen always goes above and beyond to make your stay perfect. They share their lovingly restored home with you (as well as the freshly baked cookies).
we'll definitely return.
a few notes:
this is a traditional B+B with a large (and delicious) breakfast served every morning at a common table with the other guests (about 10 if the place is full). Conversation about the day's activities is a must. So if you don't like socializing with other guests or are looking for a solitary retreat- you might think about somewhere else. That said- it's just breakfast and it's a great way to meet other folks who might have some inside tips about local happenings, wineries or good river spots.
The inn is on a quite small street which is great but can be a trick to find your first time. Make sure to get good directions for that last right turn.
The rooms are all upstairs except for the master suite which is in the back. it has a jacuzzi hot tub and tiny kitchenette. not enough to make a full dinner but good enough for making lunch to sit out in the lovely yard. The web site photos seem current and don't artfully crop out some hideous feature. it's as nice as it looks.
For the eco- conscience, Allen has installed a solar system which came in handy while we were there. It was so hot in Sonoma, the area experienced a brown-out but Case Ranch still had power AND a/c!
