Perfect location
A short trip for me and my adult daughter, so the two rooms and shared bath were perfect! Comfy beds! Kitchen had all our basic needs met- we ate our meals out since everything was in walking distance in the town! Really appreciated the location! Owner was very attentive and the process to check in was easy. They even gave a birthday cake for my daughter’s 26th birthday! Very thoughtful!! Definitely a great place to stay!

I have to rave about the great beds, the wonderful down pillows, and the interesting antique furnishings. Including the wall tapestry. The location is very convenient to downtown dining and shopping. The only likmitation was the lack of counter space or a table in the small kitchen.

We loved our stay in Calistoga. Adele was a wonderful host! The cottage was perfect for our weekend in the area. I loved how close the house was to everything in town. I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a great place to stay in Calistoga. Adele was also super sweet to leave us some freshly ground coffee. My husband thanks you for that. I can be a bear without my early morning coffee.

Living room needs tweaking for comfort. Bathroom too.
First off, when I walked in I thought "This isn't the place I rented." The furniture was different from shown in the photos and the one I rented had an outdoor fireplace. This unit is half of a duplex and the other side was the unit with the outdoor fireplace. But since there were already people staying there I decided to let things slide. The reason I'm marking this as three stars rather than higher (I'm usually a really easy grader) is the lack of comfort in the living room and the fact that this could be fixed with a bit of effort. Explaining: The living room is a long rectangle with a loveseat on one end (by the door) with an arm chair beside it. There is no coffee table in front of the sofa, nor a side table by the chair--basically no place to sit a drink down. The tv is on the wall way at the opposite end of the room. To watch tv you must look over the dining table and chairs. There is only the ceiling light; there are no floor or table lamps in the room so don't plan to read a book. One corner of the room is taken up by a large floral arrangement. At the opposite end with the tv there is a massive table to hold a few books and tv components. The table to be used for dining is an ornate antique in the middle of the room, one where there is so much carving that you can't fit your legs under it. The chairs are very straight, small and uncomfortable. Room could work with a bit of effort. I suggest moving the massive table under the tv down the wall to the corner. Then I'd move the big floral display on to that table, place in corner next to the window. Since the kitchen is so far away, I'd utilize that table to hold the coffee maker and toaster, basically convert it into a 'breakfast room'. I'd purchase a new smallish round table with comfortable seating and put that where the flowers currently are. Move the sofa up to the front window and angle it slightly to face the tv. Pull the arm chair up as well. This would be better for watching a movie. Definitely add a coffee table and some lamps. For the bathroom: a small stand under the blow dryer and a narrow bookcase behind the door would give spots for multiple toiletry kits and to hold those extra towels. Honestly, this place just needs a bit of rearranging for comfort. The location is great and the front garden is lovely. The two beds were very comfortable and checking in and out was a breeze!

Great Napa Weekend
Cottage was perfect for our wine tasting weekend. Location was great as it was an easy walk to town (restaurants, etc.) but far enough away to be quiet during the evening. Also easy access to wineries in the north end of the valley.

This property is best for younger folks that really enjoy vintage fixtures. It was hard being older getting into the claw leg bathtub. Also the refrigerator was hard to figure out. Or soda froze because it was in the freezer part and we had no way to know that

Lovely Property Owner
My friends and I stayed at the Cottage for a retreat while in Calistoga - There was an issue with the cleanliness and when addressed with the owner, the situation was made right. If there is an issue, make sure you check in with the owner ASAP as she's really great. Based on this interaction and resolution, I would stay at Calistoga Cottages again.

Great location - perfect home to lay your head on holiday
The nicest hosts! This house was perfect for our family. The beds were comfy and the place was clean. We really didn't spend much time because it was in the best location and we could walk to all the shops, restaurants and tasting rooms. The only odd thing is the kitchen is at the back of the house and you have to walk through a bedroom to get to it.

Love the quaintness of the property and the location was walkable to downtown. Property managers were very accommodating to us even though our arrival was delayed to the wee hours of the night due to delayed flights. The beds were very comfortable; the front patio had a nice sitting area as well as the backside patio. Only downside was the internet was slow, but hey, we were on vacation so it didn’t matter much. I would definitely stay here again.

Filthy outdated cottage
It seems like were the first renters for the season, because we were hit with a pungent odor when we walked into the cottage, which was very musty, dusty, and dirty. What I liked - the two bedrooms and the bathroom were a good size. One BR had a king-size bed and the other had a queen. Both beds were comfortable, had clean linen and pillows. The bathroom had a claw-foot tub, with a shower, a sink, a toilet, and a basket with clean towels. What I didn't like - the odor, the dust, the overall filth, the poor drainage in the tub/shower combination, and the kitchen. The kitchen had an "ice-box" and you had to go through one of the bedrooms to get to it, which led to a lack of privacy for the people in that bedroom and an inconvenience for those sharing the cottage. The living/dining room area had a love-seat, a wing chair, a round dining table with four chairs, a large rectangular table, which held books and dvds, and a tv. The chair cushions were dirty, saggy and lumpy. Overall, the furniture in the living/dining room area is not only dated and dirty - the comfort level rates a zero. In summary, I would not recommend this cottage due to the filth (extremely dusty and musty), poor layout (all guests must go through one of the bedrooms to access the kitchenette), and the furnishing, which are musty, dirty, and lumpy. Thorough, regular cleaning and an update would go a long way.
