Bed and breakfast vacation rentals in Northern California

My sister, brother and I had a magnificent stay at Jeannie and Skate's beautiful home. We wish we could have stayed longer! The bedrooms were cozy, bright, and clean, the parlor is the ideal gathering spot, and the outdoor space is completely magical. This home is imbued with creativity, art, and joy and we feel so lucky to have stayed in it. Will 100% be returning here on my next trip to San Francisco.

What a beautiful and relaxing short stay we had at Sea Otter Cottage! From soaking in the soothing hot tub to playing in the charming garden, every moment was delightful. Our 5-year-old loved exploring the lovely surroundings, the toys in the house and we truly felt at home in this cozy, welcoming house. Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful space with us—we will cherish the memories made here and hope to return at some point!

We had an amazing time here. We stayed with our 3 year old son and he had a great time playing with the toys provided and exploring the property. Staying in the caboose was a unique experience and one we would love to do again. Pat was very responsive to any of our questions and available for anything we needed during our stay. We would love to come back and stay someday.

ee is great

We enjoyed our stay and the peaceful surroundings of the location. It was the perfect location for an anniversary party we attended in Aptos.

Our stay was amazing, the house is so magical and we will remember our experience there forever. Skate and Jeannie were lovely hosts always made us feel at home and were always very attentive to any needs. Thank you! Hope to come stay again in the future !

Easy & convenient, perfect for my partner and i to stay in this quaint small private house attached to Marie’s home. Everything we needed for a night’s stay in Sonoma. Would definitely recommend~ thank you, Marie!

The house was charming, welcoming, and very comfortable. It was in a great, very quiet, location. The neighbors were all friendly. We appreciated the host's communication and flexibility with check in time. We appreciated that the host left some avocados from their tree for us to enjoy. We'd highly recommend and are excited to return for another visit!

My stay with Emily was excellent. The proximity to UC Berkeley and various stores makes the room a very good accommodation for visiting scholars (and others working at the university). I also got to know Emily's son and her dog, everyone made me feel at home from the beginning, even though I was far away (from Germany). I can only recommend Emily's place :-)

Bill was our host while we stayed and he was wonderful. Everything looked even more beautiful in person. They had a breakfast bar in the morning and it had so many great options, something for everybody. Thank you for the lovely stay!

This historic home was absolutely breathtaking. We felt like we took a step back in time, extremely fitting for the beautiful historic town of Virginia city. I definitely plan on coming back!

Susanna and her husband are terrific hosts. They met and welcomed us to the area. We felt right at home and really appreciate their kind hospitality. It was a great place to stay! Thank you, Susanna and John!

The private space is a lovely, clean and comfortable bedroom with a private bathroom. Diane is friendly and gracious, offering wine in the evening and great coffee in the morning. It is truly a room within a lived in, cluttered but artsy home.

Susan and Rich made us feel like we were visiting our friends without being intrusive. They were engaging, informative, flexible and fun. We shared meals together when suited but ate separately when appropriate. We loved our stay here and can’t recommend it highly enough. The facilities were clean and beautifully presented. Breakfast was time flexible and there were plenty of choices including Susan’s own recipe of Granola that was yummy. The title of super-host is well deserved. We will be recommending Susan & Rich to any of our family / friends heading to the area. Thank you guys for your hospitality 🫶

Nancy and Roger are very generous, welcoming and proactive hosts. They made sure that we felt comfortable and enjoyed our time here. The house is a short ride from Santa Cruz and the Henry Cowell State Park. Our hosts had excellent recommendations for hikes and food. They also paid great attention to detail in setting up the room — there were a lot of thoughtful touches and we had everything we needed. The room, the bathroom and the house in general are very clean. The surroundings are beautiful and calm. We definitely recommend!

Beautiful garden in a nice Berkeley home. Very quiet and clean room with good private bathroom. Great location with many locations including our favorite store Berkeley Bowl (which should be added to your recommended places) in easy driving distance. Comfortable bed and Rachel had welcome goodies waiting for us in our room’s refrigerator. She was very accommodating with our delayed flight and helped us inside after we lost our instructions. Snacks in the refrigerator helped us late at night when we arrived. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Fantastic spot to stay in Healdsburg! Breakfast and early morning coffee were exceptional as well.

The place looked just like the photos! It was clean and neatly set up. We checked in pretty late, but Emilie was really helpful and made everything easy. We didn’t get a chance to use it, but there was a small play area outside that would be great for kids.

Perfect for my wife, daughter and I. VERY comfy master bed (adjustable). Quiet location. No full kitchen (as we knew) but had fresh muffins out for us and a well-stocked coffee bar which we appreciated. Will likely use again when visiting family in Merced.

This is our third stay, and always a special one!! The land will envelope you with peace and beauty, and Lael’s hospitality is full of friendliness and warmth. The creativity put into this incredible Tolkien Hobbit world that he and his wife designed is an absolutely stunning experience. It’s done so well that you have all the conveniences of the modern world along with all the magic and lore of another world all together. Not to be missed! We ordered the “shire-cuterie” board again, which is an incredible spread of deliciousness. Their complimentary home made breakfasts are something we always look forward to as well, absolutely five star. And their welcoming of our doggies is much appreciated. It’s quiet, private and such a cozy escape that we always look forward to. Until next time! Thank you, Lael and family.

This room was perfect! Clean, smelled nice, had a coffee bar with instant oatmeal, fresh bananas and a little Madeline cookie. This was a really nice touch and we appreciated it! They also had water bottles which was great since Reno water smelled like chlorine. The bed was very comfortable and not too hard. The closet was good sized with hangers. There is an iron and ironing board as well. This room has a nice shower/tub, its own toilet and sink. There were clean towels, shampoo, conditioner and body wash. Way to go Roman and Marie, your place was excellent! Looking forward to coming again. :)

For a same day reservation, the listing was accommodating & peaceful for a long drive. The host was super communicative & proactive; he sent clear instructions both email & by text. Upon arrival, the place was warm & cozy. Extra sheets & towels were provided for my pets. I used the jacuzzi with the fireplace on - what a morning joy! A delicious breakfast was included, and the presentation was superb & was at a perfect time. The view of the place in the morning sun with the trees in the background was relaxing & calming. Definitely a must if you are visiting Shasta area!

Super nice hosts, communicated very well and were welcoming and friendly. Made us feel at home. We ended up having to check in later than expected and there was no issue. The rooms were very clean and family friendly, the main room was way bigger than it seems to look in pictures which is a plus! And the main bed is so comfortable, after a long day that bed was heavenly! Due to traveling we had to leave very early so we didn’t get to see much of the area around the house, but the host did give us recommendations on cool places within our travel path. Overall a great experience and if we were local we would definitely book again!

Amazing location for accessing Yosemite coupled with the beautiful property itself. The Glacier room is on the far end of the property and feels most private, it also has a outdoor globe that would be lovely to relax in(we didn’t as it was very warm out). The bed is the comfiest we’ve ever had in an Air BnB. Takes about 30 mins to drive to El Portal, and another 30 to get to Curry Village. We left very early to access the park so the breakfast that was prepared by Horizon in advance was a great touch, and very welcome. I would recommend staying here to anyone looking for accommodation to either access Yosemite, or for just a place to unwind and relax
