We really enjoyed the Loft -- it was the perfect retreat, and Cloverdale is so quaint and cozy. We ate dinner at the Thai Time restaurant -- it was first rate! Met a bartender from Cloverdale at the Bear Republic brewpub in Healdsburg who recommended the Hamburger Ranch for breakfast -- very good!
We rode bikes 25 miles in the Dry Creek valley one day, then 25 miles along the Russian River the next day. What a way to see the wine country, and what a great time of year, during harvest.
A wonderful experience -- if I live long enough and save enough $$, we'll be back. Have already recommended your place to several friends and acquaintances...

Dear Claudia,
We loved staying in the loft. The beautiful decor reminded me of the style and ease of a Four Sister's Resort suite. Very classy and very comfortable. I would highly recommend your loft to anyone traveling in the wine country.
Upon arriving, we had the good fortune to attend the music concert in the square. Our daughter loved scoping out all the street vendors and we enjoyed the BBQ food being offered. The event added a hometown touch that is often overlooked in other places.
Thank you for the opportunity to experience Cloverdale with relaxing comfort. |

The loft is a wonderful Oasis after a long day of enjoying great wine, delicious food, beautiful scenery and wonderful weather. Claudia has outfitted the loft with all the extras needed to make a get-a-way simple and enjoyable. The kitchen is well stocked so that guests can eat in if you wish to enjoy the quiet of downtown Cloverdale from the deck. No detail is overlooked to make this so much more than a place to sleep.
The only thing to keep in mind is that Cloverdale is a bit north of the majority of wineries. We however, enjoyed staying away from the traffic of Healdsburg. The drive to wine country is literally minutes away so should not be a deterrent, but something to be aware of.
We will be returning to stay again! |

| Thank you Claudia for thinking about all the "little" things that make a vacation rental just perfect. The care you put into decorating the loft made it so comfortable and enjoyable. The location was ideal for taking walks in the town and it couldn't have been more perfect for our small dog! The kitchen is especially nice for cooking and it's obvious you gave a lot of thought to our every need. Thank you for making our stay wonderful! Caren & Eric Danielson |

Everything was great.
The bed was extremely comfortable.
The loft is very nicely decorated, and supplied with everything one may need.
Claudia was a pleasure to deal with.

This is a wonderful cozy and comfortable place to stay. I would highly recommend it and will plan on returning. It was exactly what we needed to get away from the big cities.
A friend and I stayed in the loft during the last week of August. One of us is from Phoenix and the other from LA. Staying in the small quaint town of Cloverdale was a treat for us. We spent two mornings bicycling in the area, and then spent the afternoons wondering around the various wineries in that immediate area. There was no need to travel south to the Napa region, as the northern part of the valley has more than enough to explore. Plus it has a cozier more intimate feeling. |

| We recently stayed at The Loft while visiting the area and riding in the Wine Country Century bike ride. The Loft was lovely and very comfortable. Claudia was so helpful in recommending places to eat, but we loved the newly remodelled kitchen so much, we ate in. She also helped with a place to lock our bikes before and after the ride. The Loft is very close to sleepy downtown Cloverdale, and the biking in the area is unbeatable!! Spectacular views and rolling hills anywhere you ride. We'll definitely stay again. Marie |

After a long and tiresome art show set-up in San
Fran The Loft was everything we needed, and more!
I can sincerely say that all of my expectations were
surpassed. I had never even heard of Cloverdale.
My partner booked the stay weeks ago (while The
Loft was still under construction) and Claudia
delivered beautifully! And, what's more My partner
and I were the very first guests at the loft!! We will
most definately be back. What a charming and
meticulously crafted home. Claudia made us feel
right at home and even left us an amazing bottle of
Domenichelli 2005 Petite Sirah! One word. . .
YUMMY!! I can't wait to taste the '06 Zin. The Loft
is a true gem and a great value. I can't wait to
return to it, and that precious little Cloverdale.
XOXO, Inga & Shawn
p.s Are there really dales of clover in Cloverdale?
We'd like to visit them when we return. |

Rumor has it that there are a few dales in the clovers, but we have yet to see any.
Thank you for the kind words! Claudia

We recently attended a wedding in the Healdsburg
area and stayed at this lovely vacation home. We
had our 4 year old twins and found this property to
be just wonderful. We were within walking distance
of a couple of neighborhood parks that the children
enjoyed completely. Eating on the porch with the
warm sun on us, was a treat. There are wonderful
views of the mountains. The bed was very
comfortable and we had everything that we could
ever need. The furnishings were all very new and
tastefully decorated. Claudia was very
accommodating in helping us to schedule a
babysitter and arrange transportation to and from
the wedding. She also recommended a wonderful
Italian food restaurant that we were able to walk to
with the twins one evening. We will definitely be
back and wish that we had more time to explore
the local sights and wineries! Highly recommended! |
