We came in for wine tasting and an early dinner on a Friday afternoon. They just opened up for dining Friday-Sunday. It was excellent! The salmon tasted like a delicious home-cooked meal and the burger was great. This is a great spot on your wine tasting journey in the area. Warm and hospitable. Looking forward to returning in November.

We recently had a baby shower here for my sister, we were coming from out of town and we can't believe how lucky we were to find this place. This place was amazing handled everything for us and decorated it for us. The food was unbelievable and the attention to detail sure stood out. Not to mention they have and amazing selection of beer and wine on tap and the bartender was awsome the whole time. We ended up staying the night here and the rooms were so nice and comfy we felt right at home. We will be staying here whenever we visit definitely and can't wait to come back and do another event we'll worth it.

Great place to stay. We arrived late and the hosts greeted us, gave us a nice welcome, very nice people. The hotel was very peaceful. The neighborhood felt very safe, especially compared to chain hotels in the middle of town. Check in and out was easy and instructions were clear. Muffins in lobby and restaurant up the road, coffee and fridge in room. All amenities worked nicely and the bed was very comfortable. Would stay here again anytime were passing through.

Lovely place to stay! Very quiet, and in a convenient location, very close to the Sacramento River. Room was comfortable and the proprietor was very accommodating.

love this place! Hidden gem for sure! Fantastic wine tasting, delicious food, friendly staff. They sometimes have live music as well. Check them out if you want a full wine tasting experience but don't want to drive all the way to the SugarMill or Napa. You won't be sorry! Great little local place that's NOT a chain restaurant!

We booked a last minute Mothers Day reservation here and we sat outside. The buffet brunch was awesome! So much variety. The weather was perfect and there was even live music to entertain us. The staff was super friendly. I didn't know this place did anything for Mothers Day and I am glad I called to check since every other place in town was booked already

What a hidden gem! Quiet, clean, on the river, and great dining all around. We have stayed twice and will definitely only stay here if we are in the area. Excellent responsiveness and customer service too.

We had a wonderful stay! The owner was kind enough to allow us to check in early, which was much appreciated after our long journey. The room was spacious enough to comfortably accommodate three people. Parking was very convenient, located just behind the house and easy to access. We also enjoyed a lot of privacy during our stay. Overall, it was a great experience and we would definitely stay here again.
