My husband and I have been to many B&B's over the past 19 years. This is our favorite! The H.S. Clay House is beautiful and whimsical. Each room is amazing and the attention to detail is fabulous. Alan's breakfast was by far- THE best breakfast we have ever had at a B&B. Phenomenal. Most people looking at ratings are looking... More

This was my first time staying here, and the experience was absolutely amazing! It's in a great location, within walking distance of several wineries, local eateries, and shops. The main house and the guest cottage are gorgeous. The pictures don't do it justice! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, Alan and Leigh showed such kindness and generosity, and the food... More

My boyfriend and I absolutely enjoyed our trip to this B&B. He took me here for an early birthday gift. How romantic! Fabulous food and friendly company. This was my first B&B experience and it will be very hard to top! More

You may prefer motels and food chains and theme... More

From their welcome tour of the beautiful and historical Clay House and grounds, to the most delicious welcome "punch" concoction - to our cozy and romantic suite in the "Tree Top" - every detail was well thought out and fully appreciated! We will definitely be... More

We have stayed in almost all of the uniquely decorated rooms, but our favorite is the Turret Suite. Leigh and Alan are incredibly welcoming hosts. Alan's breakfast creations are... More
