Brand new heating and air will keep you comfortable any time of year.

Your cottage has its own fenced patio space (open on one side), and there is a common yard with a gas fire pit that you and other guests are welcome to use. There is a walkway that leads to the front of the property and gives you access to Alisal Road or you may exit the property on 1st St. as well. Parking is easy and within feet of your cottage. The surface of the parking area is made of decomposed granite, which is a firm and even surface, making it easy to roll suitcases. However, during rain events, the surface may be less firm. It’s important to us that you are well-informed about the cottage before booking. Below are a few important things to note about the Pendleton Suite and Roaming Gnome Property: -The studio space is roughly 300 square feet, about the size of a spacious hotel room. -Strict two person maximum including children and infants. Note that there is no sofa or second sleeping accommodation. -Parts of the yard and parking area are still under restoration, and so you may notice piles of dirt, empty planters, and fences under completion. We don’t believe this will impact the quality of your stay, and we will not be doing any loud projects while you are there, but we think it’s worth mentioning.
