Tuscan Petite-Villa at Dorner Family Vineyard

10/10 Excellent
"Such a charming place, perfect for a mini getaway. I enjoyed everything about the space, that ventage villa vibe, and especially the mini vineyard, chicken, and birds right outside the doorstep. Even got to see a few deer/elk roaming the area. From booking to checkout, oh, how the little details matter: host messages(thanks Michele), very detailed information booklet, all necessary amenities, decor/ personal touch, handy notes/labels, and little treats, which provided that true home away from home feel(it's a self-catering stay). Even staying as a solo female, it didn't take long for me to feel secure. It is a short drive into the mountains, so I would recommend picking up a few groceries before driving up and settling in. It is closed during the week, which is when I stayed, so I definitely would love to visit again over the weekend, when the winery is open to enjoy the full experience. It was nice to have the opportunity to take in a small piece of their paradise for a few days. Thank you Michele and Mike"
