We recently finished the 2 nd weekend of our "pick and press" stay at Hope Merrill. Our first weekend was in September to pick and crush grapes to make our own wine. We shared this project with 3 other couples. Last week we went back to taste, blend, bottle, and label our wine. Not only was it a great time,... More

From our check in to our departure we were treated to a unique experience by proprietors Ron & Cosette. Their friendliness and knowledge of the area were true assets an added to our enjoyment of the weekend. Room was very nice, large and well appointed. Comfortable bed. The town is small but close to a number of areas with just... More

Geyserville is the perfect location for wine tasting in the Dry Creek Area. Quaint town and friendly town folks. Checked in and were rudely treated by Innkeeper Cosette. I agree that she is odd and judgmental. On a very busy weekend event Annual Winter WINEland the four of us were the only ones in the Inn. Very bad sign. This... More

We stayed here for two nights on a random wine country trip. It was great. Our breakfast was awesome, not just for the food but our hostess Cosette gave us all sorts of good info about the wineries in the area. We were in the downstairs room with the jacuzzi bathtub which was great to say the least. And their... More

I had the same experience as shgr8escape describes. Cosette is odd and judgmental. She came out to lecture everyone at breakfast, while she was holding the fruit bowl (which made it impossible for anyone to access to fruit!) She seemed to take a lot of joy in making negative comments about pregnant women she had observed at winetastings, and how... More

Hope-Merrill house definately needs some sprucing up, to the outside paint and gardens. Our Room had spotted carpets and and air conditioner that was loud all night. Taking a shower meant you were either freezing or scalding when someone else used the shower. The sheets were thin as was the comforter. Couln't use the fireplace since there was no key... More

A Little off the beaten path made this a Perfect get away for us! They had several advertisements from other wineries nearby that made our wine tasting Free! The rooms were lovely, and breakfast time was a great start to each day!

Great location Large delicious breakfast Comfortable bed Lush grounds Helpful Hosts We stayed in Geyserville for our first trip to the California wine country. You do not have to drive too far (10 min) from Hope-Merrill to get to one of the many beautiful & delicious wineries that dot Sonoma. Cosette & Ron helped us choose which wineries to visit... More
