Aurora Park Cottages Reviews

We can’t say enough good things about our stay at Aurora Park Cottages during the weekend of October 15th. Joe and Celeste are wonderful innkeepers and make your stay as comfortable, informative and enjoyable as possible. The directions on their website and printed materials are spot on. Once there and checked in you enjoy the ambience of your own personal cottage complete with very comfortable bed, 2 wonderful overstuffed chairs, nice eating area with high top table and chairs, coffee from a local Calistoga roastery (be sure and stop in town to meet the owner), a fridge and separate bath with shower. Each cottage has it’s own deck with recliner and table and chairs and separate parking. We enjoyed sitting on our deck and watching the sunset light up Mt Helena across the valley. The colors were beautiful with the vines and leaves changing color. Joe and Celeste are wonderful innkeepers and will provide you with discount coupons, private tastings and much knowledge and insight into the local wineries. We spent 5 days touring and tasting and never travelled farther than 15 miles. There are so many wineries to visit that you won’t be going far. We have to mention the help that Tom at the Wine Stop in Calistoga gave to us. He arranges tastings of local winemakers who don’t have their own tasting rooms and we enjoyed so much of one winemakers wine (Dave Chelsea) that we purchased 2 cases of his wine. Tom was very helpful in providing bottles of wine for us, shipping cases that we bought at wineries and just generally being another fount of knowledge. Before closing, I have to mention the wonderful breakfasts that Joe provides each morning. He bakes and delivers wonderful pastries, fruit and juice to your cottage. It was a wonderful start to our day. Aurora Park Cottages was a wonderful place to spend 6 days. We will be back.
