I can tell that Valerie puts a lot of care into making sure that this little cottage is cozy and welcoming. I was surprised to see the mini fridge stocked with some items for breakfast and coffee, and snacks, which was AMAZING after all long day of travel. The heating elements in the cottage were perfect after spending a day at Vichy Springs. I really enjoyed my time! Thank you so much!

When you’re taking your wife on a truffle hunt and you’ve never been to this area, you know you’ve found the right place when, upon walking in she says, “it looks like a professional designer staged this place.” And that’s just the beginning. A cozy and comfy place for two, Valerie’s cottage is like a miniature version of MacArthur Place in Sonoma (another favorite). Impeccably decorated, with comfortable seating, cozy robes, and the best stocked fridge of any place we’ve ever stayed… any place. Organic maple syrup? Check. Coconut milk creamer? Yep. Organic 2% milk? Of course. This is just the beginning, but if you want to know more… then book a stay yourself. After a day of walking and hunting, my wife said, “this place makes me want to put on my pj’s, order in and just relax.” There’s not a better recommendation than that. There’s a perfect little courtyard outside your door, just the place for your pooch to decompress. Our big boy worked all day hunting, and relaxed perfectly at Valerie’s. Communication was great, recommendations spot-on and located close to a park and Black Oak Coffee (something for everyone). We are already planning on returning to this lovely little retreat.

Wonderful amenities like snacks, bathrobes and toiletries. Modern, cozy cottage, clean with a lot of light. LED remote controlled candles were a lovely touch and made evenings relaxing. I was traveling for work and will definitely be back.

I would highly recommend this cottage and would definitely stay here again! It was quiet and is in an ideal location. The host was friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. We hope to stay again!

This was a magical cozy stay! We were so impressed with the cleanliness, everything so pristinely labeled and presented. We appreciated the variety of organic offerings. The communication was also outstanding!

My 78-year-old mom stayed in this cottage while we were visiting Ukiah for a wedding, and she loved it! The home is immaculate, has all the amenities needed, and was stocked with unexpected snacks. The property is secure, and the garden was tranquil for reading or enjoying coffee. The owners surprised her with breakfast pastries and were extremely helpful in retrieving an item my mom left behind.

Hosts are friendly and helpful. The VRBO property is right next to the hosts' house and the outdoor (backyard) spot is shared between you & the hosts. The property is in walking distance of downtown, but quiet at night. The hosts provided lots of snacks for weary travelers!

We had a lovely stay and enjoyed and how clean and well-stocked this little rental is! We have a 2-year old and they were extremely accommodating. The pack n play fit in the room, windows black out and there were delicious snacks and treats that made us feel at home. They really go above and beyond!

This accommodation was delightful. A gorgeous cottage, very beautifully appointed. Very comfortable, a garden outside the door. Had every amenity, a filled refrigerator with drinks & snacks, fresh pastries, good coffees. Just charming. A quiet tree lined street. A good sleep! Would definitely stay again, and recommend highly.

Such a nice and clean place! Our host was so helpful and kind! I will be back again to stay and enjoy the town more! Thank you again for such an enjoyable stay!

This is a small unit but has everything you need, including a comfortable back yard to enjoy a book and pet the owner's dogs if you like. It is very well stocked with snacks, toiletries and any anything you may have forgotten. It's a short walk into town to enjoy a meal and a good base to use for visiting the redwoods, the ocean or wine tasting.

This was an adorable place that we highly recommend. Valerie was so amazing! Traveling from across the country we were so grateful for the wonderful goodies and comfortability of her cottage. The cottage was beautiful, quaint and had all amenities which were perfect for our stay. We will definitely return next year!

We really enjoyed staying here. Highly recommend!

Wonderful spot. Super friendly and clean. Thanks for everything!

Cute cottage, the owners are so responsive, has the feel of an old fashioned, well run bed and breakfast

Communication and instructions were great. Comfortable and well Stocked cottage. Tasty local treats. I will definitely be back!

We loved this cottage. It was really perfect - clean, pretty, comfortable and cozy, and with lots of unexpected goodies like a snack basket, fresh fruit, toiletries, stocked kitchen, and pastries and bagels delivered to our door in the morning. The house was beautiful from the outside too and was only two minutes drive from downtown Ukiah. Valerie and Charles were friendly, helpful hosts and we will be coming back soon.

Dear Readers, I am one of the first to review this adorable cottage in the midtown area of Ukiah. It's easy to find, easy to park on the street or in the driveway if permitted. Walk up from the front to a key-coded lockbox on the side of the main house. The key opens up the backyard and which is a perfect retreat for a dog that also needs a little time. Several treats are in the fridge and in a basket and jars. This stay included a breakfast which was baked goods from what may be the best bakery in town and stuck in my head that it was an amazing scone! You'll see. Plenty of hot shower water, good heat, lighting and a cozy atmosphere. Kitchenett was delightful with plenty of what is needed for a full meal. Creamers of different kinds were made available for our morning coffee or pasta sauces. We ended up at Rivino for wine tasting and the view was spectacular. The prices were reasonable and the wine variety was indeed delish. Don't use the restrooms and do take a picture. They do have a cheese and meat board if you like that with your wine. The restaurant in the hood I tried was Patrona on West Stanley. There are three other ones on the same block if you don't like the vibe. There is a happy hour at the bar that is a very favorable pricing and you can ask for onion rings to share as a bar treat. (off menu). The bar crowd are inclusive and know each other. Great place for one person who is extroverted. We went to Vichy Hot Springs and it was a mixed bag. I happen to be a hot spring aficionado. Go to Orr Hot Springs if it's open. Book now since they take reservations. You can make a great picnic for Orr and the conversation is structured to be a little more quiet in the soaking tubs, private room tubs, and a swimming pool. The soaking is hotter there and I like that, myself. Just pop up out of the water every now and then to regulate yourself. Be sure to check holiday and summer months for live bands at wineries and beer halls. The weed stores in Hopland are very good. The dogs on this property did not NOT yelp and they were very well behaved and managed. So cute! Invite one on your lap. Bring a pillow case to keep your clothes from getting hair all over and have some dog therapy with these cuties. I hope you enjoy your stay with the delightfully decorated and cozy cottage. Valerie and her partner were very accomodating. I would return to again in the future.
