Great place for an extended visit

I've stayed here before and would not hesitate to stay again. This place is perfect for a short or a long visit as it is very clean, well stocked, quiet and in a great location. I especially enjoyed the fact that it is separate from the main house and is equipped with a washer and dryer.

Perfect Spot for Sonoma County Exploration

Mod Pod Lodge was the perfect spot for our anniversary trip. We wanted to explore the coast and wine country. We did it all! Sebastopol had everything we needed for food and night life - before and after a day of exploring. The rental was perfect both inside and out. Highly recommend.

Modge Podge Good Lodge!

what a great place to stay in the Sonoma area. Not only a great location but a nice plae to hang out. Private yard is a definite plus with all the plants. And you can help yourself to anything. We had grapes, herbs, peppers and a tomato. Not to mention the wonderful hosts!

Nice spot

We enjoyed our stay and the cottage had everything we needed. There was only one wine glass but the host quickly remedied that. We loved picking fresh tomatoes and grapes from the garden an Andy’s Produce just down the street is amazing. This was a nice base for our annual trip to wine country and close to one of our favorite wineries (Merry Edwards). We usually travel with friends and need a bigger place but this was great for just the two of us.

Thumbs UP!

I visited my hometown of Healdsburg and was back for a wedding, but was shocked at the rate of the standard hotel in the room block so I was lucky to happen upon this space. The guests are encouraged to visit the backyard and pick the vegetables which I loved. The space is also about twice as big as a standard hotel room, and the owners gave me total privacy, more generous to visit for a bit as I was leaving. Though it can use a little hose down outside and perhaps a little refreshing inside, would bring it back to the way the photos look. Andy’s produce is about a 12 to 15 minute walk if it’s very hot, but Andy’s has always been a great store for organic and beautiful food and every department, though you pay for it. When my sister picked me up, she was also very impressed and sure enough we ran into the owner and they knew each other and their kids. Glad I can still feel like a small town and I will definitely go back there and recommend.

Charming Hideaway

The property is just lovely and very comfy and beautifully equipped. Very convenient to Sebastopol/Graton/Santa Rosa. Although I didn't indulge, it was lovely to be offered a cocktail. Fully supplied with bath/beauty products, cooking condiments and seasonings. The garden is lush and must be even more so when fruits are in season. All in all a terrific stay and I hope to return.

The Mod Podge was perfect for my stay in Sebastopol. It has everything you need and is so comfy. It’s a perfect location to explore Northern California and I can’t recommend it enough. Close to restaurants, wineries, hiking trails, and great little shops. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again on my next trip to California.

Clean, well-equipped, amazing location

We loved this little casita behind the owner's home. It was clean and quite roomy for two, well applianced and very comfortable. The location is terrific; it's nestled among the trees and private, and if you're lucky you can let the owls sing you to sleep. It's close and convenient to everything, yet feels very private.

Peace and quiet

At the end of a lane I found peace and quiet making a great escape from family after sitting around the table with family for 8 hours. The hosts were kind enough to call after I left reminding me of my cup and pointing out I had left the wrong key.
