Comfortable Two Bedroom Two Bath shingled cottage in the West Sonoma wine region

Cute comfortable cottage was clean and easy to access, would stay here again

This was an excellent place to stay. If you are looking for a place hidden away from the city.. this is the place!

The home was exactly as described on VRBO. We had one question for the host and she responded and answered. She even offered earlier check in and later departure which was nice. Home was located near activities we were visiting. Saw the wild turkeys! Enjoyed our stay.

We loved the fireplace!

Lovely garden and deck to sit with pretty lights to sit at night. Beds were very comfortable and good location near Sebastopol. Great quick check in and reaponsive property manager.

Very nice, serene place in beautiful surroundings!

My husband and I lived in Occidental for at least 50 years before moving out of state for business. So when our niece was getting married in Santa Rosa, we needed a place to stay with my daughter and her husband. I found Owl Hill on line @ VRBO. It is so comfortable, casual, fully equipped, very private and lives bigger than the square feet advertised. The two bedrooms are at opposite ends so very private. Highly recommend.

We were two couples who were looking for a relaxing getaway near wine country and were so excited to find this cottage. It's surrounded by beautiful, shaded landscape and we loved that we felt like we were camping, but with the luxury of having a cozy house to sleep in! We loved seeing the deer and wildlife every morning.Our beds were comfy and the kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed. The bathrooms were clean and well maintained and there was plenty of room for the four of us. The location was great and we enjoyed exploring wine country and then coming back to our retreat. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway in nature!

My daughter and I had a great time here. It was the perfect location, close to all the places we wanted to see (Armstrong Woods and Bodega Bay - about 35 minutes away) and had all the things we needed to cook some of our meals.This is one of the best stocked rentals I have been to - I'd venture to say the best. We didn't use all of the items, but for those wanted to cook at the rental, it had all the things: blender, coffeemaker, wok, tea kettle, pots and pans, etc. I would imagine it would make life easy for a family or group who wanted to save and cook meals at the rental.It's about 10-15 minutes from the big chain grocery stores as well as some of the cutest little shops ever. We made some meals at the rental, but we also ventured out and ate at Wild Poppy Cafe (just a few minutes away and so yummy), Cozy Plum (pricey but delicious vegan options), and Acre Pizza. Also, yum.My point of this is you can choose to eat locally or at the rental. Either is great. I loved having the options.The backyard is peaceful and gorgeous. If my kids were little, I would have loved to let them play outside while I just drank some tea and relaxed. Instead, I just drank tea by myself. HAHA.Dawn was one of the most communicative and accommodating hosts I've had to date. I really appreciated her allowing us early check-in and late check-out. That really helped since we had some time issues.I would most definitely stay here again and highly recommend this rental and host.

Really enjoyed this property; we were looking for a quiet spot reasonably close to Sebastopol (10 minute drive door-to-door). This fit the bill, lovely older (but renovated) house w/beautiful mission style trim in redwood, a fireplace, etc. Screen doors galore for fresh air but are a bit fussy, need adjustment so they can slide w/o being so careful.The cleaners used were not heavily scented, a nice thing for those of us who find the scents irritating. Didn't use the trail, it's rough so assumes good knees. Even w/o walking the trail we saw owls, turkeys and heard the coyotes yipping to each other for a bit, very peaceful. Access road is a bit rough and narrow, pretty tight for 2 SUVs meeting, not a problem for most cars. Finding it could be a bit rough without GPS.

We enjoyed 3 days in this nice quiet cabin

The Owl Hill Cottage was the perfect spot for a winter getaway. We loved the cozy fireplace and seeing deer in the yard. Close to conveniences, yet feels very secluded.

This cottage is secluded and comfortable. Just minutes away from Sebastapol, you feel as though you've escaped to your own private hideaway. Highly recommended.

Kitchen well equipped. Good location. Very private.

If you’re looking for a rustic but well appointed get away in the woods in the wine country, this spot is PERFECT!

Just amazing location and house was really wonderful. Cozy and roomy for a cottage. Comfortable beds and lovely bedding. Warm welcome and very responsive host. Just perfect for a quiet weekend. We even got to walk to a local winery for a lovely tasting. Highly recommend.

This is a charming little cottage surrounded by a simply marvelous garden on the backside of the home. The listing is slightly misleading as the property may be 4.5 acres, but most is not easily accessible and there is another home immediately next door (streetside) of the cottage that is occupied by multiple individuals. Nevertheless, it is quiet and peaceful. The house has all you should need for a comfortable stay. My wife found some parts of the home in need of a good cleaning, but it was mostly surficial dirt and no big deal to me. Wifi is terrific. Climate is just awesome for leaving the windows open all night for a nice cool sleep. Sebastopol is great little town that is readily accessible for good shopping and food. You are surrounded by wineries, so no complaints there. Good access to the rest of Sonoma as well.

We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage. The place was clean and set up well for our stay. It was easy to communicate with owner and she was very helpful when we were making our plans. Overall, it was the perfect get away spot for us.

We enjoyed our stay in this cozy, well-appointed cottage in the woods. It reminded us of staying in our family lake cabin where things were a bit rustic and very peaceful. The only downside for us in particular since were are both tall is that there was not a king-sized bed. We would go there again! B&C
