Vintage Merlot Bed and Breakfast

Debbie and Walter offer a very comfortable, clean, quiet, centrally located and welcoming Bed and Breakfast. They provided lots of information about the local hiking trails, wineries, restaurants and where to find reasonably priced produce stands. The two homemade breakfasts were exceptional and exceeded our expectations. Debbie served: home made pancakes, scones & egg cups, with bacon and an assortment of fruit mostly picked from their property. You can even enjoy a hot tub!

The breakfast was delicious and hearty and even incorporated some fruit the owners had grown. The hot tub was glorious to soak in at the end of the evening. The hosts have thought of every detail: fresh water, a kuerig coffee maker, towels for the hot tub. The bathroom was very clean. A mini refrigerator in the room is a nice touch to keep leftovers or wine. The hosts were very accommodating to our lab retriever.

A small 2 person cafe table may be a good idea in the indoor lounge area as a more comfortable option to dine, perhaps by reconfiguring the lounge furniture (which is a lovely outdoor set and coffee table, however a bit awkward to eat a meal at as you must lean over to eat on the coffee table) to create more space for one. The robes were a pleasant touch however we suggest having larger size options.

It was super close to everything, you drove 20 minutes and you had so many amazing wineries! Not only that, but Walt and Deb are some of the kindest and loveliest people we have ever had the pleasure of meeting they made you feel like you were at home, not to mention it was an added bonus that they had their 2 absolutely beautiful bloodhounds with them! Deb makes some of the most delicious breakfast, every morning we started off our day with full and happy tummies. Not only that, but it was so nice sitting outside and chitchatting about anything and everything

The location made it perfect to explore Oliver vineyards. Deb and Walter were such considerate hosts, well-informed about all the wineries in the area and so thoughtful with their recommendations. Their beautiful dogs made a little diva of a chihuahua feel very welcome.

Honestly, there’s nothing to dislike. The perfect stay for people looking for a winery/desert b&b experience.

Walter was welcoming and friendly. He engaged me in great conversation about my trip and volunteered information about the track, points of interests nearby (beach, walking route, etc.). Overall, I felt comfortable, safe, and well cared for. Thank you Walter and Debbie! I have already shared my great experience with my wife and shall look for reasons to stay with you during our next family road trip.

Hmm... I suppose I didn't like that I had to leave :D I would have enjoyed staying longer than 1 night - maybe next time I will book at least two nights so I can explore the area more the evening after a track day. Seriously, I liked everything about staying at Vintage Merlot B&B!

Walter and Debbie are incredibly warm and welcoming hosts. Check-in was a breeze, Debbie’s breakfasts were delicious, both Debbie and Walter were excellent company and gave us great tips on what to do in the area and wineries to visit. We will definitely be back!

The beds were so comfortable. Quiet area. Close to town and a great swimming beach. Breakfasts were delicious with fresh fruit. Debbie and Walter were very warm and welcoming. I would stay there again.

We had a lovely time staying with Walter and Debbie. The breakfasts were delicious and the conversations delightful. The hot tub was a great way to end a perfect day of exploring wine country.

Walter was a fountain of knowledge regarding wineries in the region and Debbie’s breakfasts were outstanding! They were very friendly and hospitable. We couldn’t have been happier with our stay.

Debbie and Walter are amazing hosts serving home made breakfast from scratch including fresh baked scones! Yummy!!! 5* Very nice B&B in a good quite location with easy walk or drive access to lakes and restaurants. Very comfy mattress. When I’m back in area I’m not looking for a different accommodation! This was GREAT experience!
