The Space:
The Retro Bungalow is simple and neat. Great for a weekend in the beer and wine country of Sonoma County. The kitchen has all the tools you need to make your own meals. The bathroom has a wonderful claw foot tub and tall shower. We are dog friendly so the backyard has a small lawn and is set up for people and their pooches.

The Neighborhood:
The West End Neighborhood is a downtown neighborhood. There are a mix people that work and live here. The neighborhood has two wonderful parks and some very interesting homes to look at. The Franco American bakery is located on West Seventh street across the street from a small market. This is an urban area of Santa Rosa not the countryside. You can walk to Railroad Square and Courthouse Square. The neighborhood is a great place to start a bike ride. Bike paths can take you beyond road traffic out of Santa Rosa to some of the greatest road biking anywhere.

The SMART train stops in Railroad Square starting in the Summer of 2017. The train will connect to the Sonoma County airport and south to Marin County.

Cozy place with an amazing dog-friendly backyard
Cozy place with an amazing dog-friendly backyard. My wife and our dog had a great long weekend at this house — the yard, the living room, and the big kitchen were all highlights. Plus there’s a dog park just a block and a half away. One note for improvement was the TV: the cable box wouldn’t work so we had to unplug it from the back and let it restart. Then after 20+ minutes the TV would begin working. But every time we turned it off, it needed to be unplugged and restarted for it to start working again. I’m sure this can be fixed in the future, so it’s certainly not a big deal, just something we had to figure out during our stay.

Darling dog-friendly destination
Myself, my husband and our 3 under-25 lbs dogs had a delightful stay in this historic West End home. The house is absolutely charming with its whimsical landscape in both the front yard and spacious back deck & garden. The interior of the house offers even more with the mix of modern conveniences and retro style. The claw-foot tub and vintage Westinghouse stove were a favorite. If you are traveling with dogs, this house is perfect. The mud/laundry room off the back is fully stocked with pet blankets, bowls, toys, and even pet stairs. The wine barrel dog bed in the living room was a favorite spot for all 3 dogs. The neighborhood is fairly quiet & very walkable, plenty of places to dine and enjoy the beautiful spring weather. If you like nature, the historic Luther Burbank house & garden is a short drive away, along with lots of wineries and parks. There’s also lots of grocery stores, drug scores, gas stations, and chain restaurants options within a 5 mile radius. Our host made check in/check out an absolute breeze, and was quick to reply to all communication. Allen really made our stay relaxing with all the thoughtful touches throughout the property. It really felt like we were visiting a cozy and familiar family member’s home. We will definitely book this house again.

Sant Rosa Bungalow
Great location with close proximity to downtown and the trail system along Santa Rose Creek. I was in town for the Santa Rose Marathon and could easily walk to and from the start/finish line. House is small, but really cute and well equipped. Owner was very easy to communicate with and we especially appreciated that the property was dog friendly. Our dog Kona loved it too!

Cute place
The house is a nice old gem. Fun vintage decorations. All the good stuff you want: clean usable kitchen, Wi-Fi, nice backyard. Overall rating of 4 is mostly for preferential reasons. It’s in an area that doesn’t really have anything within walking distance without walking through some rough areas. Gotta drive to get to coffee, food, etc. Beds are full size, which is a bit too small. Security seems a bit iffy as old doors have old locks. Front door latch was broken so it wouldn’t latch shut or lock; security door fully latched and locked though. I alerted owner; wasn’t interested in doing anything about it. Would I stay there again? If the front door latch were fixed and the house were in a different area, yes. For location alone, no. If you don’t mind the location, it’s a decent stay.

Great Experience
The entire process from booking to checking out was seamless. The property is truly special with a charming and welcoming vibe, a beautiful front porch and backyard. The location is perfect, incredible bakeries walking distance (minutes) away. A great experience all the way around. We will definitely book again.

Absolutely Wonderful!
I have already tried to make a follow up reservation at this lovely home and it is booked for my dates. Bummer for me, but I am happy for whoever gets the opportunity to stay in this sweet home. It is super clean, secure, and well stocked. Allen is kind and caring and very accommodating. Looking forward to my next stay~
