Weekend getaway

The property was very clean and well kept. The property manager was the most attentive property manager we’ve ever dealt with. The room was decorated nicely. We will be back!

Lovely time

My husband and I went back to the Container Retreat after our first trip there in early November. The Container Retreat does not disappoint. It is cozy, relaxing, and romantic. I would recommend the Container Retreat to anyone and everyone.

Container House

This is exactly as advertised. Perfect for a couple just to stay the night. Absolutely do not recommend for a restful vacay to stay in. It was so tiny. Very cute! The bed was not comfy. But it worked great for our purpose of not having too far to drive after winery touring.

Container stay

This container was just as described. Check in was easy, place was clean. We arrived late, but was easy to find. I did have a request to have a few more towels & washcloths because we were staying 3 nights. No problem at all, they dropped off extra the very next morning. I would definitely stay here again !!
