This is on a small side street of cute little cottages just off a main drag. People walk dogs, ride bikes, and stroller kids. Also, they stroller dogs. It is vibrant, fun, multi-cultural, and a little bit funky! Just around the corner is TripAdvisor's #1 rated breakfast place, Dierks Parkside Cafe. No need to cook breakfast, they crank up the bacon every morning. Spinster Sisters is a popular California Cuisine dinner restaurant one block away.

Great base in an interesting historic and artsy neighborhood central enough to enjoy everything Santa Rosa has to offer, even without a car. The cottage is nicely decorated, wonderfully comfortable, and equipped with all that you could need for a longer stay: full kitchen, 2 real bedrooms with ultra-comfortable beds, great shower and bathtub, washer and dryer, and lovely backyard area for sitting, sipping drinks, stowing bicycles, watching hummingbirds, and enjoying the breezes.Communication with Patti was friendly and seamless, and we felt right at home and, on leaving, already eager to return.

The Best Vacation Rental!

I have stayed at The Cottage multiple times and each stay gets better than the last! I can’t say enough good things about it: Safe & quiet neighborhood, great location, super clean, fully stocked, great patio, lovely front porch, communicative host and great little touches that make it feel like home. Highly recommend and I’ll definitely be back!

Great property for a visit to Santa Rosa

We loved the property and had a great experience in Santa Rosa! The location was perfect for us as it was walking distance to downtown. Everything was perfect and as advertised. We will stay here next time we travel to Santa Rosa and would recommend.

Property was very clean and quiet, which are the two things we most value in a property. It was close to a lot of great restaurants , maybe a 5 minute drive to most of them. Owner was easy to deal with. Overall a great stay.

The Old Cottage

The property was an excellent selection for our 4-night stay. So much nicer than a hotel. Very clean, well appointed with full kitchen, 2 bedrooms, bath and nice den. Quiet neighborhood with on-site parking. The owner was delightful to visit with while we toured the back yard flower beds. Would certainly rebook in the future.

This cottage is clean, cozy but spacious, and in a great location for both walking around downtown Santa Rosa and driving around Sonoma County. It has a wonderful outdoor space and is fully stocked. Patty makes this place feel like a true home away from home. I will definitely be back!

Absolutely Wonderful!

The cottage met and exceeded our expectations! Comfortable beds; very clean; very cute porch and patio. The neighborhood is walkable and safe. There is guest parking provided in front of the porch. We had the opportunity to speak with Patti a couple of times and she is delightful. I highly recommend this VRBO and if we ever find our way back to the Santa Rosa area again, I hope it is available.

Patti is a joy to talk with. James and I just love our time here at her beautiful cottage. We always hope that when we visit Santa Rosa that the cottage will be available. Would not be the same somewhere else. The location is perfect and the neighborhood is lovely to walk around.

2nd Stay at the Cottage

It was my 2nd stay at the Little Old Cottage and it was even better than the first! This is one of the best vacation rentals I’ve ever stayed at and I can’t wait to come back again! Patti is a great hostess who pays attention to everything. The house has ample supplies and all of the little things that really make it feel like “home”. The location is great and is walking distance of downtown. Plus, you can’t beat morning coffee on the beautiful porch! Highly recommend!

Great little cottage near downtown SR!

I stayed at the cottage for two nights. Patti was a wonderful host! The cottage was very clean and well-equipped. The area is quiet and residential, but close to downtown and convenient to freeways. Folks with mobility issues should be aware of a large step down in the middle of the cottage, but it is well marked and wasn’t a problem for me. I would stay here again if I’m in Santa Rosa!

Super spot in Santa Rosa

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the cottage in Santa Rosa. The cottage had everything we needed and was very well equipped in the kitchen although there are so many good places to eat. The neighborhood looks a little run down on initial impressions but feels very safe and is situated perfectly for accessing downtown. Definitely a case of not judging a book by it's cover. The porch is a super place to hang out and watch the neighborhood wander by. Beds are comfy and garden looks great but didn't take advantage of on this visit. All communications with host Patti were prompt and efficient. Would happily stay here again.

Clean, comfortable property in good location. AC worked well and bed was comfortable. Plenty of room for two but could easily accommodate 4 if willing to share a bath.There is a well marked and lit step between living room and kitchen that takes some getting used to but we were fine. Could be an issue for someone with poor balance especially in middle of night.Good communication by host made everything easy. Overall a great experience!

Wonderful stay!

I loved the cottage ! Everything was better than it appeared in the online photos .. extremely clean, plenty of amenities if needed, stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and adorable front porch and back yard for enjoying morning coffee or evening wine. I also visited Taylor Mt. regional Park which was only seven minutes away for my morning run. Lots of trails and dog walkers ! Great place!! I would highly recommend this place and Patti was great!!!

Patti was charming, as was her house. She thought of everything, and, while we didn’t need to ask for anything, I’m guessing she would have been as present and responsive as she was throughout the entire experience. Highly recommend

About the host

Hosted by Patti

Host profile image
We love living in town, although our neighborhood feels like the country, with giant redwoods, heritage oaks, and rambling cottage gardens. We garden, do a little light carpentry, bike, and volunteer with Meals on Wheels. We enjoy practicing the art of being hospitable, which we learned at the knee of our folks, who hailed from Texas, where nuestra casa es su casa!

Why they chose this property

Walk to everything!

What makes this property unique

Close to everything, with plenty of outdoor spaces in which to relax and enjoy that fabulous California weather!
