Why Stay Here

The Signature Cottages sit alone among rows of vines, each unit built as a freestanding structure rather than connected wings. Outdoor showers run hot year-round, and patios stretch wide enough to leave breakfast dishes out while you walk to the on-site beehives that supply the honey served at the property.

  • Signature Cottages include outdoor showers and gas fireplaces
  • On-site beehives produce honey served in cottages and restaurants
  • Culinary gardens grow produce used in resort dining
  • Dog-friendly cottages available with no size restrictions
  • Pickleball courts and bikes for use across the property

The Experience

Guests walk garden rows in the morning, picking tomatoes and basil that appear on lunch menus hours later. The spa offers treatments in rooms that open directly to private courtyards, and pickleball courts sit near the pool. Dogs sleep on cottage patios while families bike between the main building and their units, passing chickens that roam near the kitchen gardens.

The Setting

Carneros Resort and Spa setting

Cottages are spaced apart across the property, separated by culinary gardens that grow herbs and vegetables for the resort's restaurants. Gravel paths connect the units to a central town square where live music plays on weekend evenings.
