Anniversary Get Away

The little one bedroom house was perfect for us. A great location, very comfy bed and lovely property. Wish the weather had been a little warmer so we could have enjoyed the outdoor space. Would have liked to have a traditional coffee maker.

Comfortable and Quiet

Our stay at the little cottage in Sebastopol was especially comfortable and relaxing. Located on the outskirts of town, it is very quiet and private, and at the same time close to beautiful walking trails that we enjoyed as well as an easy drive to Muir Woods, beaches and fun towns like Pt. Reyes where we had two excellent meals. We also loved the short walk to Andy’s grocery in the morning for coffee and a doughnut. Everything you will need is provided, but if you should be missing something, Donna and Keith are close by to help.

A perfect convenient cozy private guesthouse in magical Sebastopol, Ca.

This was our 4th winter visiting friends in Sebastopol, our new home away from home.We loved our 3 week stay at Donna and Keith's Hodge Podge Lodge located behind their house at the end of the country lane. It was convenient to downtown, grocery stores, shopping, entertainment, and all of surrounding wonders of Sonoma County wine country, Redwoods, and coast. We loved that we could walk everywhere. Having bicycles available would have made it an even more wonderful stay. Next time we'll bring our own or rent some. There is a beautifuloutdoor yard space with furniture, completely private. There were even chickens next door making for a perfect country setting for us. We loved the eclectic tasteful decorations. The vintage kitchen table and chairs were our favorite touch. The house was so clean and the kitchen completely stocked with anything you could imagine you might need. We appreciated having condiments, honey, peanut butter, coffee, and so much more provided. Donna was very responsive to our texts when we had questions. We hope to come back next year and stay longer. Dennis and JoelChampaign, Il.

Perfect spot in Sonoma County

This was a perfect spot for a family visit. Just 15 minutes from our son’s home and close to Sebastopol was very convenient. The property was very cozy and the owners do a great job of stocking the kitchen and bathroom with just about anything you’d need. Everything was clean and comfortable and the property was quiet and well kept. We’ll definitely stay again.

Great place for an extended visit

I've stayed here before and would not hesitate to stay again. This place is perfect for a short or a long visit as it is very clean, well stocked, quiet and in a great location. I especially enjoyed the fact that it is separate from the main house and is equipped with a washer and dryer.

Perfect Spot for Sonoma County Exploration

Mod Pod Lodge was the perfect spot for our anniversary trip. We wanted to explore the coast and wine country. We did it all! Sebastopol had everything we needed for food and night life - before and after a day of exploring. The rental was perfect both inside and out. Highly recommend.

what a great place to stay in the Sonoma area. Not only a great location but a nice plae to hang out. Private yard is a definite plus with all the plants. And you can help yourself to anything. We had grapes, herbs, peppers and a tomato. Not to mention the wonderful hosts!

Nice spot

We enjoyed our stay and the cottage had everything we needed. There was only one wine glass but the host quickly remedied that. We loved picking fresh tomatoes and grapes from the garden an Andy’s Produce just down the street is amazing. This was a nice base for our annual trip to wine country and close to one of our favorite wineries (Merry Edwards). We usually travel with friends and need a bigger place but this was great for just the two of us.

Thumbs UP!

I visited my hometown of Healdsburg and was back for a wedding, but was shocked at the rate of the standard hotel in the room block so I was lucky to happen upon this space. The guests are encouraged to visit the backyard and pick the vegetables which I loved. The space is also about twice as big as a standard hotel room, and the owners gave me total privacy, more generous to visit for a bit as I was leaving. Though it can use a little hose down outside and perhaps a little refreshing inside, would bring it back to the way the photos look. Andy’s produce is about a 12 to 15 minute walk if it’s very hot, but Andy’s has always been a great store for organic and beautiful food and every department, though you pay for it. When my sister picked me up, she was also very impressed and sure enough we ran into the owner and they knew each other and their kids. Glad I can still feel like a small town and I will definitely go back there and recommend.

Charming Hideaway

The property is just lovely and very comfy and beautifully equipped. Very convenient to Sebastopol/Graton/Santa Rosa. Although I didn't indulge, it was lovely to be offered a cocktail. Fully supplied with bath/beauty products, cooking condiments and seasonings. The garden is lush and must be even more so when fruits are in season. All in all a terrific stay and I hope to return.
