The cottage was warm, cute, and quiet. We enjoyed our night, but felt strange on the property. It would have been nice to have a note telling us if we could walk around, as we had hoped to do that. Enjoyed the cottage and the pleasant view.

Complete joke. Video of property over sells the property.50 years of deferred maintenance. Would not recommend to anyone. We have stayed at two Verbo properties that were outstanding. This one was a shock. The one picture of the "cottage" is deceiving. Verbo should require the owners of properties to provide multiple pictures so traverlers do not get blindsided.

The Carriage Cottage was charming and perfectly decorated with Seabiscuit's memories. The stud barn museum was a wonderful way to truly understand the history of the ranch. Great time as we celebrated our 57th anniversary. Thank you!

Cottage was quaint, quiet and charming! Very cute inside and the bed was super comfy! Dawn, the host, was great to work with. Seabiscuit's stud barn was informative. Being attached to the carriage house was a neat bonus. Best part was being able to see all the stars in the darkness.

Seabiscuit

The property was all about the legendary horse Seabiscuit. 16 Thousand acres of horse property, produce farming and wide open spaces with amazing views. The internet was out all 3 days I was there which was inconvenient because I was there to look at property in the area.The room I stayed in was fairly small with a tiny refrigerator, so a longer stay really would be hard to navigate with food and beverages. There's just no place to put food. Also a T.V. would be nice, especially with no internet connection.Also you are in the middle of a community of homes and some apartments with lots of residents and ranch workers. There was one resident who walked by my room several times a day to make sure my dogs were on a leash and saying several times "there are rules here". The room had a nice deck and my dogs and I sat outside a watch the sunset and this is when the resident actually walked onto the deck and complained about the dogs not being on a leash.I guess there's always one of those, and I got the feeling he didn't like the fact that there was a VRBO in his neighborhood.

Wonderful and relaxing place to stay!

This place was great, just what we needed. It rained must of the time, but we still loved it. The carriage house was a fun bonus. There is plenty to do around the area, with great food options in Willits, not to mention the home of Seabiscuit!
