Recently my we had a "girls get-away" in Calistoga. Our original reservations (for 9 gals) did not work out and, just by luck, a group had cancelled at Hillcrest leaving some rooms vacant. The ambiance was perfect for us, with antiques, fantastic views of the valley and an incredible breakfast included. We practically had the whole place to ourselves and... more

My sister and I always stay at Debbie's. We have a dog and really like to escape from SF. The property is so huge and quiet, it's everything we look for to wind down from the loud city of SF. It's just a 5 minute drive to the "strip" where there is music while you eat everywhere. We drive down... more

Hillcrest was a perfect getaway spot. The property is beautiful, poised halfway up Mt Helena and overlooking the vineyard. It boasts approximately 39 acres of walkable roads, trails and off trails with a large pond and benches strategically placed for a great view. Our dog had a ball. It was very relaxing knowing she could go anywhere at anytime and... more

I just came across a brochure from Hillcrest B & B - a year later - death in family etc. Anyway we originally had July 1-6 reserved. Upon arrival, OMG, I have never seen such a mess, unkempt, dirty. I would actually say they make a lot of their revenue from non-refundable nights, like ours. It was very sad as... more

Do not consider this place to be a 'Bed & Breakfast.' You will be staying in a dated, cluttered, grubby house. The site is fine, nice view of the valley, even the geyser. The first clue as to how 'rough' this place is, is the open trench and the back-hoe when you drive up to the house. There is a... more

First and foremost, this is more than pet friendly, it's positively welcoming! You and your animals will be greeted first by Debo, the sweetest dog you are ever likely to meet. (He's the "vicious pit bull" described in one review--not a vicious bone in his body, and we watched him with our tiny scared yorkie: Debo was ultra gentle, and... more

"My Home is Your Home" says the sign at the door, and that's what you're going to find at Hillcrest: a modest, comfortable home overlooking the Napa valley. The proprieter, Debbie O'Gorman, is a friendly, welcoming hostess, and a great cook. She's also a foster mom who looks after a number of kids at any given time. The guest areas... more

The proprietor is a warm, charming hostess with lots of historical knowledge about the house and the surrounding area. The rooms were very nice and comfortable, and very clean. I've read some of the other reviews about housekeeping but maybe they were there on off days. I found everything about the house fabulous, including the homey atmosphere and the outstanding... more
