BJ ’s Nest is a great location for exploring wine country. Close to Downtown Napa (and Oxbo Market & Gott’s.) Very close to Silverado Trail and amazing wineries. It’s a lot of space for the price—a roomy basement apartment. Comfortable bed, updated bathroom. We loved our time and the host was great!

Thank you Joe, for the wonderful review! I'm delighted you had a great time in our valley, and enjoyed the accommodations. Please come back again....soon.
Warm regards, Barbara
This studio apartment was very cozy had everything you needed for cooking your own meals. Nice outdoor grounds. Close to all the restaurants and shops. We had great time.
Studio was beautiful, well appointed, and close to everything. Bed was comfortable, house was spotless and location was quiet. Didn’t get a chance to use the hot tub or back yard, but both looked very inviting.
The home was extremely convenient. Nice space, excellent location for the wineries, food and shopping in the area. Home was clean and very comfortable. Quiet area and great backyard for relaxing. Can't lose booking this place.
This is a perfect place with regard to location. So close to everything. Very comfy beds and nice place to sit and relax. Hot tub was a nice extra. Highly recommend. It is moderate on price compared to other choices. Great value!
BJ’s Nest is a great location for all things Napa Valley. Nestled nicely right off the Silverado Trail just 10 min from downtown in a quiet downstairs of a private home. No full kitchen but that’s what reservations are for. Perfect for two. More would be tight in my mind. Lovely backyard. Barbara our host is a good communicator which I always appreciate.

Disliked: Location
The hostess was kind enough to let us check in earlier so that was greatly appreciated. Unfortunately for us the apartment was garden level and it was dark in the unit. It was musty and smelled old. We did end up having some ants around the kitchen area. She was responsive and did her best to have them sprayed. The bathroom set up was great! Nice to have someone shower while someone was using sink or toilet. The hot tub would not warm up enough for us to get in. Even though we knew how to use the controls it didn’t warm up. Sad. Easy in and easy out. Just a few stairs to navigate with luggage.
We had a wonderful week stay in Napa at the Cozy Retreat, a great location, very easy access to downtown Napa or to travel north up thru Napa Valley. The apartment has everything you might need as well as a beautiful back yard. Would stay again!

About the host
Hosted by Barbara Schell
I'm an older lady, now single. Originally from Idaho (Boise valley), moved to California in 1970, then to Napa. Enjoy the ocean, love to garden, entertain, and cook! Enjoy people.
Why they chose this property
Property is 5 minutes away from Downtown, yet close to all activities. 1/3 acre of wooded grounds with lawns, and flower gardens. Most neighbors are on 1/3 acre to over 4 acres., so nicely spread out. Very private, older more upscale neighborhood and one that is safe as well. Plenty of off street parking. Come and enjoy our valley!
What makes this property unique
pets (dogs only) are welcome! Spacious yard, with fencing on 2 sides only. One street side open. Private hot tub perched on deck overlooking gardens & yard. Outside smoking is permitted.
