    Avalon B&B is tucked away in a beautiful redwood grove. The rooms are beautifully decorated and provide all the amenities one could want. The property has walking trails and quiet places to sit and contemplate nature. Hilary is a charming hostess and provides a gourmet breakfast. She also is a terrific source of information for all of the local wineries and eateries.

    I decided to surprise my partner for his birthday by taking him to a bed & breakfast in Sonoma County a couple weeks ago. I found Avalon on the internet, and was impressed with the description and pictures. So, I had high expectations. This place exceeded my expectations! It was just an amazing experience and we both loved it so much. It is by far the best bed & breakfast I have ever stayed at. We stayed in the Wizard's Quarters room. It was magical and great. The bed was very comfortable, the set up including the bathroom was nice, and we enjoyed the fireplace and of course the steam room shower. There was also a nice hot tub that is shared amongst the guests. Since there are only three rooms for people to stay, you usually can get the hot tub to yourself. One of the rooms also has a private hot tub. The property is surrounded by beautiful redwood trees. There is a stream connected to the property and you can hear the peaceful sound of the moving water. There are also options for hiking close to the property and you feel like you are in the middle of nature even though you are very close to wineries, etc.. Some of the other highlights were how welcoming the owner Hilary was, the comfort of staying in the house, wine hour by a fire pit which included wine, cheese and sausage, and Hilary's yummy breakfast. Hilary also was very helpful in providing recommendations for restaurants and other information. I highly recommend Avalon and we look forward to staying there again!

    My husband and I celebrated our Anniversary at Avalon Bed and Breakfast and stayed in the Enchanted room. We had our own private hot tub under the stars nestled in a beautiful wooded area. It was very romantic and relaxing. The staff are very nice and hospitable. We will definitely plan to return.

    Gracious hostess, superb food, wonderful setting (walk back up the moss filled creek if you dare). Loved our own private hot tub and the main hot tub which is quite luxurious with lot's of nooks and crannies to sit in. The tea selection was phenomenal. The conversation exceptional (talking with a doctor about his PhD on sleep, etc. etc.) Nice selection of games (the neodymium magnets will prove irresistible), and on and one. It was indeed a magical place to stay.
