PET FRIENDLY, FIREPLACE, VIEWS & SPECIALS!

Summary:
As featured in Sunset Magazine, our contemporary 2-bedroom/2-bath cottage is a celebrated pet friendly retreat nestled in picturesque Ukiah Valley. Dogwood at Long Valley Ranch feels like remote wilderness yet is minutes from town and the wineries of Mendocino County. Set 100 miles north of San Francisco within an 800-acre private ranch, Dogwood offers its own freshwater pond and 83-acres of serenity while the lodging provides all modern comforts featuring floor-to-ceiling windows, a wood burning stove and both indoor and outdoor deep soaking tubs for two. The cottage has a perimeter fence for pet security.

A beautiful 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom, 1,220 square foot wine country residence situated on one of Boonville Road’s (Hwy 253) most exclusive ranches, DogWood is a private retreat with a multitude of features. Floor-to-ceiling windows offer forest and rolling valley views and bring in plenty of sunlight and moonlight from every room. Perhaps the property's most impressive features can be found outside the front door where you will find a private pond for fishing and swimming, miles of trails to explore and numerous shade spots and knolls for picnics, naps and reading. Perched on a hilltop ridge, DogWood was designed to enhance its picturesque surroundings to maximize privacy and encourage relaxation.

INTERIOR DETAILS AND AMENITIES

The Cottage features a modern and spacious floor plan planned around maximizing the indoor/outdoor lifestyle that Northern California is known for. Decorated with handsome fabrics, contemporary furniture, modern lighting and local artwork, DogWood creates a feel of Mendocino elegance for our guests. Urban comforts for both humans and their pets, include central heat and air-conditioning, a fully equipped kitchen, ceramic tile flooring throughout and a laundry room. For multiple guests, traveling together doesn’t mean you have to be on top of each other as the two bedrooms are separated by a large open living space.

Open Living Space: Airy Living, Dining and Kitchen combo provides an open-concept environment to disconnect, relax and entertain.

Living: Comfortable leather sofa and viewing chairs provide seating for six whether relaxing around the fireplace or watching movies on the 65” Samsung TV, featuring Chromecast for customized viewing. Sofa can be utilized as a bed for one extra guest.

Kitchen: Cooking enthusiasts will enjoy a fully-equipped kitchen includes gas stove, large cutting board island, variety of pots/pans/baking equipment, microwave, dishwasher, Capresso coffee grinder/pot, Nespresso coffee, tea kettle, long-bread toaster, Belgian waffle maker, rice cooker, wok, hand mixer, Cuisinart Blender and a water filtration system. Locally sourced, organic produce, seafood and meats are abundantly available year-round via farmers markets, the Ukiah Co-op and individual seafood mongers and butchers.

Dining: A salvaged wood French bakery table featuring bentwood/rattan seating provides workspace and dining accommodations for up to 8 people. Entertaining is enhanced by stoneware, flatware and a selection of placemats and napkins to fit every occasion.

Main Bedroom Suite: Wake up to the views of Sherwood Forest in a modern, minimalist California King Thuma platform bed featuring a Tempurpedic mattress and high-quality sheets and bedding, alpaca blankets and a selection of soft-to-firm pillows either in down or down alternatives. The extra-large bedroom offers two cozy reading chairs, ample closet space with storage drawers, 40” Samsung television featuring Chromecast for customized viewing and a modern desk. All windows feature privacy/room darkening roller shades. It’s a great space for solitude!

Main Suite Bathroom: A true private spa getaway with views of the country and plenty of on-demand hot water fed from our private well, the extra-large bathroom features a soaking tub (for two) and a separate rainfall Shower. Plush Turkish towels, bubble bath and bath salts are provided.

Second Bedroom Suite: A cozy version of the Main Bedroom, the second bedroom offers the same high quality sheets, bedding and pillows for a rejuvenating sleep. Includes ample closet space with storage drawers and all windows feature privacy/room darkening roller shades. A private en suite bathroom includes stand-up shower and plenty of comfortable Turkish bath towels.

Laundry Room: Commercial grade Speed Queen Washer and Dryer, Cleaning Equipment and Supplies, Wet Sink, iron/ironing board and general pet supplies provide the added conveniences of home.

Other Modern Amenities: Central HVAC, Screened windows, Wireless High-Speed Internet, high-grade water treatment and softening system. While the cottage has central air-conditioning there are many days that you can open the windows (that all have screens) to let the country fresh air in, especially during the cool Spring/Summer nights.

DogWood Pond: The property features a 2-acre pond (commonly referred as Piano Lake due to it's shape) that is managed by a professional aquatics manager every month throughout the year and is safe for swimming and fishing. We have plenty of towels for swimming (separate from the bathroom towels) for both humans and dogs. For those who enjoy fishing, the pond is stocked with Bass with some Blue Gill. After the Bass spawning season is over (late May), caught Bass has ranged from 10-14 inches (3-4 pounds). Most folks that come up are catch-and-release but we have had folks (especially our aquatics manager) that enjoy a good pond Bass dinner! :)

Wonderful property and hosts
When you combine a truly lovely property with exceptionally responsive and kind hosts, you can't help but have a lovely stay. That was our experience at the DogWood cottage. The cottage sits in an idyllic setting, and the cottage did not lack for anything. The owners clearly had put a great deal of thought into everything a guest would need (even our four-legged guests). We LOVED our stay and cannot wait to return!

The Perfect Getaway
Perched on a narrow ridge with commanding views of the surrounding hills, Dogwood Cottage is the perfect getaway. The house has windows all around to take advantage of those views. It is obvious that a lot of thought and planning went into the house design and furnishings. And the lake! It was the ideal temperature for a hot August day. That the lake is professionally maintained is apparent in the freshness of the water. Some sort of floatation device and sunscreen are all you need for the ultimate in relaxation. I definitely recommend a stay here.

We had the best stay at the property! Jeff and Trey were so communicative and provided the best experience. The house is beautiful and comfortable- so well stocked for a relaxing stay. The surrounding property was so great to have access to swimming, soaking in the outdoor tub, relaxing on the hammock and just enjoying the peaceful outdoors with patio furniture. I can't wait to stay here again!

This is the only property that my husband and I have ever stayed at more than once! We had a wonderful first visit last year and just came home from an even more amazing second visit. The property is beautiful, and the house has everything you need with views from every window. We traveled with our two dogs who had the absolute best weekend there! I cannot say enough wonderful things about this place -- we will definitely be back again! Thank you for sharing this beautiful place with us.

Perfect Getaway!
What a wonderful place to stay! I cannot say enough good things about this cottage and the absolutely breathtaking land around it. My husband and I (and our dogs) stayed here for a weekend and had the most relaxing stay. The house was clean and well stocked and perfect for our dogs. The views out of the floor to ceiling windows were spectacular and we took full advantage of the trails that were right outside the house. Our dogs had a blast swimming in the pond! The owners were so welcoming, both before and during our stay, and were extremely responsive to any questions or concerns we had while staying at the cottage. Within the first couple hours, we were already planning the best time to come back again. Thank you Trey, Jeffrey, Basil, and George for sharing such a wonderful place!

Nice, small house for 4 adults! Comfortable beds, good sheets and pillows. Kitchen has everything you need. Medium drive from Anderson Valley wineries, but definitely doable, and it’s nicely remote in the evening. Check-in and checkout were the easiest we’ve had on Vrbo (in 10+ years of renting).

Perfect Remote Getaway
The house is a perfect combination of modern touches, efficiency, and comfort. Everything is so thoughtfully appointed and it may be the most well stocked kitchen of any rental house where we have stayed. We thoroughly enjoyed cooking, watching movies, and hiking around the ranch for a couple of days before we mustered up the will to go into town and encounter people again. The property is spacious and beautiful. Our dog enjoyed it so much that I think he's depressed we came home.

Peace and Quiet
My husband and I spent a relaxing holiday week at Dogwood and would go back in a heartbeat. Jeff and Trey are terrific hosts and go above and beyond to ensure guests have what they need. They provide clear instructions about the property ahead of time and helpful recommendations to maximize your stay, whatever your interest. The pictures of the property are great and it is even better in person: clean and spacious, with a chef's kitchen and a bottle of bubbly waiting in the fridge. It has excellent internet connectivity, a cozy fireplace and jumbo tvs should you find yourself with a rainy (snowy!) day or two like we did. The property is fenced and our dog had the best time running around, and the walk from the house to the main gate is just long enough should you need a walk/run before heading out to Boonville and beyond. Dogwood Cottage is one of the best of the many VRBO properties that we've stayed in over the years. Thanks again, Jeff and Trey!

It was an absolute beautiful stay. The hosts were so communicative and helpful. They have a very well stocked abode and really care about making sure you have a good experience. The sunrises were majestic, the occasional acorn dropping on the roof was whimsical and the location is heavenly. The only recommendation I would make is to have window coverings for the master bath, as the area outside is a shared space, so just be sure to let everyone know when your taking a shower/bath as they are exposed. I have zero stars for checking in because of VRBO failing to send me the check in information, this was not the hosts fault. The hosts are marvelous.

This is our third time staying at the property and will not be our last. Such a peaceful location and plenty of fenced property for our golden retriever to wander. Wineries and restaurants are a short drive away if you want to include those in your itinerary, but the property is also perfect for getting away from civilization and enjoying some peace, quiet and a sky full of stars.

This is honestly the coolest house maybe I’ve stayed in after accumulating some rentals over recent years. Awesome small house with perfect layout and amenities, including indoor and outdoor tubs. Large windows with views of oaks, madrones, and little valleys with a cute pond. Seems to be completely fenced in—so we will bring our dog next time for sure. Just 15” to Ukiah and should be fairly easy to Boonville although with the ‘bomb cyclone” we mostly hunkered down and very much enjoyed ourselves in place. Many thanks to the owners who were extremely accessible and helpful. Hope to come back soon!

Your Little Piece of Heaven on Highway 253
If you are looking for a relaxing, clean place to stay, away from it all, this is the place. Except for a drive into Philo for 2 wine tastings, we thoroughly enjoyed the peace and quiet of Dogwood. “Highly Recommend” and “Excellent Space” reviews below are very accurate and much more concise. We have rented a fair amount of VRBO homes, and this was the cleanest, best stocked in the kitchen (cooking utensils and paper goods) that I have stayed in. Things I always travel with (foil, napkins, saran wrap, paper towels) one would not run out of while staying at Dogwood, as we have at other homes. The tubs were very tempting, but with the water shortage I couldn’t bring myself to use them (I did save a lizard in the jacuzzi). Pictures show exactly what you get and it was worth it. We changed our coffee drinking seat every morning, finally ending up outside at 7am, as the animals started making their noises. Traveling light, we couldn’t begin to fill up the large master bedroom closets (even had a shoe rack), but we did use a drawer for our kitchen dry goods. The bedroom black out curtains did their job well, as you could feel the heat when you walked by them to get to the patio. We closed the house up in the afternoon and the air conditioner worked great, until it cooled down outside in the evening. We were able to sign into all our TV stations, that we pay for at home, with no problem. We enjoyed the hike around the Meadow and walking around the pond. Our Springer Spaniel enjoyed running the hills (next time I would bring her “Out Fox” mask, not for COVID but for the foxtails). Although there were only 2 adults and Tara, Dogwood would be very comfortable for 4 people. Noon check in/out also is a very nice convenience. We stopped at El Molcajete in Ukiah, on Jeff’s recommendation and brought Mole Chicken enchiladas up to eat for lunch, delicious. I always received a quick response when I was communicating with Jeff and all my questions were answered. Although Jeff sent us excellent directions, the turn into “Your Little Piece of Heaven” comes quick (and we missed it the first time), but a little turn around led us to a wonderful long Labor Day weekend that we hope to return to in the future.
