This is an ideal weekend getaway. Self check-in, in-room hot tub and fireplace, and very close to several local wineries. There’s also a convenience store within a few hundred feet that has craft beer, wine, and basic grocery items (open until 11pm most days). Highly recommend.

Lovely view of the water and there are so many thoughtful little touches in the room. Really appreciated the snacks and the jetted tub was the highlight of the stay. Plus there's a fireplace and it's right next to one of my favorite restaurants, the Glen Ellen Star! Perfect little getaway

WONDERFUL! This Inn is a little gem. We stayed in the cottages and it was quaint, very pretty, treats left snd extremely comfortable. Our room had a refrigerator, jetted tub and a steam shower which was wonderful after a brisk walk around the town. We can’t wait to go back (we were there in Jan) to spend even more time enjoying the property and patio. Wonderful communications and the easiest checkin and out ever! 10/10 for sure!

A nice place, perfect for short stays

The secret cottages are in a great location, perfect for a short stay in the tiny town of Glen Ellen. The proprietor is engaged and responsive. I stayed for 5 nights, which was a bit of a challenge as cottage #6 is small, a bit dark and not as functional as I would have liked. There is a lot of extraneous stuff in a small space and limited surface area for ones things. A few suggestions: please add towel hooks in the bathroom and replace one of the 3 benches with a small desk or vanity; counter space is needed to improve functionality. Also brighter light bulbs would be a nice improvement.

We have been to The Secret Cottages many times before, delightful and relaxing. Very peaceful and convenient for Sonoma and Rutherford. Also close are the springs.

If you are looking for a peaceful escape, the Inn and town of Glen Ellen is small and absolutely adorable. We stayed in Cabin #6 and the host Karen couldn't have been more friendly or accommodating. Everything you need is right in the space, with fireplace, jacuzzi, comfortable bed, amazing steam shower, coffee and a bonus of snacks! A Michelin "bib gourmand" restaurant, the Glen Ellen Star is a 2 minute walk away. We would definitely return. Thank you!!!

We really enjoyed our stay at Glen Ellen Inn. It was the cutest little cottages backing on to a beautiful creek. We enjoyed the patio, sipping wine in the evening or reading a book in the morning. The staff was also very friendly and extremely helpful when we had questions about the area.
