Carol was a fantastic host. She was very friendly and offered items like fresh linens and towels throughout our stay. Her place is beautifully updated. The bed is VERY comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked with cookware. Many items/decorations from Restoration Hardware and Pottery Barn.

The bed was like sleeping on a cloud. Highly recommend this place. Walkable, comfortable and nice!

We want to thank Carol for her hospitality. The place is so comfortable, quite and super clean. We are definitely going back this summer! Thanks for everything Carol!

Carol was a most wonderful hostess . . . extremely helpful to us and always available if we had any questions. Would love to stay in her !cottage again!! The décor was well done and the cottage itself was very clean. We would recommend Carol's cottage to anyone who is interested in staying in Sebastopol!!

This cottage was very nice, clean and well appointed. It has obviously been recently updated. We were very relaxed while staying there... and the bed is comfortable! For us, a good thing was how close it is to stores, restaurants and other things we wanted to see and do. If you are able to walk a bit, it is a great location. Carol was easy to reach and very responsive through our planning and staying. If we're ever in Sebastopol again, we will definitely stay here.

My husband and I had a very restful Thanksgiving break in this property. We found the property very clean, the bathroom and small kitchen modern and beautifully remodeled and the house conveniently situated near downtown Sebastopol. We could walk to grocery stores (very useful for us since we fixed a simple Thanksgiving meal in the house!) and restaurants and explore the beautiful city of Sebastopol. We particularly enjoyed the unique "junk" art on Florence Avenue! Carol the owner was very accommodating and allowed us extra time in the house if we needed it.

This cottage, attached to the main bungalow, is beautifully appointed. It is quite luxurious with a new, large bathroom, high quality towels, a kitchen one can cook in, and a deck on which to relax. This is a very quiet corner of charming Sebastapol. One can walk to delicious restaurants. Our host was appropriately attentive without ever being intrusive. We enjoyed tomatoes from her garden. She was most helpful since the day we left wildfires had erupted in Santa Rosa overnight, and parts of the main highway were closed. While we saw the ash and the brown sky, we were unaware of just what had caused these phenomena until her text to us explained the situation. Luckily, as she said, we were heading west and up the coast (although there was smoke in the air everywhere). I would certainly stay here again.

LOVE. LOVE. LOVE!!!

LOVE. LOVE. LOVE!!!

My wife and I had a great time in Sebastopol and absolutely loved saying in Carol’s cottage. She is an awesome host and very much gave a good deal of though into how to setup and stock this wonderful home. It was nice and quiet and very comfortable for us. The location is perfect and within a short walk to the downtown area where lots of shops and great restaurants are. We definitely will see if the cottage is available when we visit the area next time. Thank you Carol!

We had a great time. The property was beautiful. Carol was a wonderful hostess.

Carol's cottage was perfect for our anniversary wine country getaway. Sebastopol is a quick drive from cute towns, beautiful coastline, and many wineries. The town itself offers a lot to do and Carol's cottage is within walking distance to it all. The cottage is attached to Carol's house, but feels private. It has everything a couple needs for some time away, and we found Carol to be very kind and accommodating. Carol's place is a much better option to expensive hotels, and it's likely nicer. If we find a way to return to the area we will do so hoping Carol's place is available for us.

Beautiful. I wish I could have stayed much longer. Clean and comfortable. And Carol is a joy to chat with.

This is our 2nd. stay in Carol's beautiful cottage. We're so grateful to have found her because we can't imagine staying anywhere else while we're in town visiting our family. Carol is so wonderful and gracious. She treats us like we're her family. Her cottage is adorable and clean. It's stocked with everything you'll need to make your stay comfortable. Thank you Carol for your kindness. We're looking forward to seeing you again soon!

Carol is a gem and very sweet host. The home is very clean and will stocked. The home is easily within walking distance to Whole Foods as well as other restaurants. The home is quiet and location is perfect. This is our second stay and we are already planning our third.

First, Carol the owner is a doll! The place was gorgeous and fully equipped. So quiet, shady and peaceful. Comfy bed great living area and kitchen, terrific shower. and softest towels. I couldn't add a thing. Carol was so accommodating of my changing schedule, I was very grateful. I can't recommend highly enough!!!!

We have just completed a month-long stay in this wonderful cottage within walking distance of downtown Sebastopol. We knew from our interactions with the owner ahead of time that we would like it -- but we never imagined we would like it as much as we did. Truthfully, we didn't want to leave. The owner, who lives at the front of the property but who was all but invisible unless we needed her for something, is one of the nicest, kindest people we've ever met. (Plus, she's fun!) Best of all, she has an eye for detail which becomes obvious the minute you enter the property. Everything we needed was right there and there is no question that if we'd needed anything else, the owner would have provided it immediately! The bed, I should mention, is more comfortable than our bed at home -- so much so that we copied the information off the mattress so we can replace ours with one just like it! Sebastopol is a quaint little town with surprising amenities -- including at least a half-dozen superb restaurants. Whole Foods is within walking distance, along with Safeway, RiteAid, and a terrific bookstore. We walked to the movie theatre once a week and of course did the requisite wine tours all over the valley. In addition to the wine tours we took a few day trips while we were there: to the Russian River, Bodega Bay, and Sea Ranch. Napa, Sonoma and Petuluma are all worth checking out and Healdsburg was our favorite -- just 20+ minutes away. For those who want an even larger town, Santa Rosa is less than ten minutes away and boasts a full shopping mall (Macy's, et al.) We also went to the Charles Shultz Museum -- the birthplace of Charley Brown, Peanuts, etc. Fun! We found a nice private gym close by (don't ask me why) -- and it was reasonably priced for a month-long membership. The City Library and public pool are only a few blocks away. Seven paragraphs ago I said we didn't want to leave -- and just typing this review, and remembering our wonderful time at this property, makes us miss it terribly. As we warned the owner as we left, "we'll be back!"

This is the third time I have rented this cottage and it is as charming as it was three years ago. It has everything you need for a comfortable stay and a relaxing weekend. The property is quiet and within walking distance to nice restaurants and Main St. the bed is super comfortable too! Very nice details...the porch is great! I'll be coming here again for sure. Thank you again, Carol!

We loved our stay... Carol's cottage is wonderful! It's cozy, quiet and well equipped. Great location - close to restaurants & convenient for day trips. Carol is a fantastic hostess... She is very prompt in communicating and making sure you have everything you need - yet, respects your privacy. We hope to return and would definitely stay here, again. Sandy Houston, TX

We loved our stay in downtown Sebastopol! Carol's cottage is sunny, recently renovated, and ideal for two people, within blocks of restaurants, shopping, farmers market, and the famous Barlow district, which is packed with boulangeries and gourmet chocolate stores and has a ton of little bistros and restaurants. The location is on a very quiet cul-de-sac, in a neighborhood with stunning gardens, quirky sculptures, and friendly neighbors. I bike for exercise and this is a super spot to base rides (head West towards Oakville, east on Guernesville/Piner, or up into the hills on the other side of Bodega road. But one caution: the roads are full of potholes!). There are hundreds of wineries (some famous and some that will be someday but haven't yet been discovered), organic fruit markets, you name it. The broader area has rolling hills with vineyards, redwood forests, and the ocean is within biking distance. For those seeking the best California produce, breads, etc, you'll find them within a short drive. And finally, the cottage was clean, comfortable and true to pictures. Carol is a wonderful host, very helpful, and very welcoming.

This was our second stay at Carol's cottage. It is the most charming and comfortable rental we have stayed in. The Sebastopol location is a perfect starting place for so many Sonoma county adventures. Within an hour are San Francisco, Point Reyes National Seashore, Bodega Bay where you can find the best clam chowder at the Spud point Crab Company, Jenner at the mouth of the Russian River, Calistoga and the Peteified Forest, Lake Sonoma and numerous wineries. The porch at the cottage is a comfortable spot for reading and relaxing. We hope to return. Thanks to Carol for being a wonderful hostess. Always available and helpful.

We loved Carol's little cottage. Quiet, great bed, beautiful kitchen and bath. A perfect choice for our five-night stay.

This was a wonderful place very peaceful and the places was. Super clean and very inviting

We loved everything about this sweet and well cared for abode. A very special place. We will stay again. Carol, our host, is the best - can't say enough wonderful things about how comfortable and cozy our stay was.

Wow, I would have moved in if I could! This is such a sweet, clean and quiet little place. Carol is great and communicative while also giving you your space -- was very responsive to texts but respected our privacy too. We were up there for a wedding over Memorial Day weekend, and it was a perfect distance from the venue (Vine Hill House). Clean, orderly, has the basic essentials, and is close to HopMonk and Ninja Star Coffee Bar, two new finds that we really enjoyed. The place has everything you need to spend more time there, with a beautiful sunny patio, games, kitchen, large bathroom and open living room -- we weren't there all that often due to wedding festivities, but I loved being able to return there in the evening. I kept telling my fiance that we should move in, but I guess we'll just have to find a place of our own :)

We had a perfect stay at Carol's cottage in Sebastopol. Her hospitality is unmatched! She was very communicative during the pre-trip booking, our arrival, and our stay. She truly went above and beyond for making us feel right at home. The cottage itself was great for our weekend getaway - especially with two little kids. The space was excellent and extremely clean, and the amenities were top-notch. Carol did a fantastic job of creating a modern space with all the amenities, but still felt like home. The location couldn't have been better - walking distance to downtown, and in a very quiet residential neighborhood. The whole experience couldn't have been any easier or better for us. We would HIGHLY recommend this location - for the service, quality, and price - to all of our family and friends. Thank you, Carol, for making this such a pleasurable weekend excursion for us!

The house was great and Carol was as pleasant as could be. We had a great time in Sebastopol! We enjoyed some wine tasting in the area and checked out the Barlow. Make sure you stop at the Village Bakery for a breakfast sandwich. It will change your life...SO GOOD! Thanks for everything Carol. Matt & Becky - Detroit, MI
