Stayed at Rust Ridge beginning of April. My sister and brother-in-law introduced me to Rust Ridge in early 2007. Every year I return to clear my mind and enjoy being off the grid and surrounded by nature. No traffic noise and hundreds of acres to hike and explore. This working horse ranch and winery is for those that enjoy nature... More

First, I have to comment on the people giving this B&B poor reviews. After reading their reviews, it reminded me of why I could never work with the general public. There are some people who will never be satisfied, or happy. I would bet they give sour reviews for everything they encounter. For my wife and myself, the ranch/winery/B&B was... More

When we arrived at the property (about 7pm), the owner met us and seemed angry that we arrived so late. She kept demanding to know why we were "late." Since the property does not have a restaurant and there are no restaurants within many miles, it seemed strange we were "in trouble" for stopping for dinner. My friend needs some... More

The owner greeted us and offered a taste of their wine and some cheese. We were able to cook dinner in their kitchen that evening and sit by the fire. It was quiet and beautiful for our walks after a hearty breakfast. We enjoyed feeding apples to the horses and tasting wine at the tasting room. A wonderful place to... More

We arrived prior to check-in time and tracked someone down to see if we could check in early. The small staff seemed to treat the B&B like a distraction, they were nice but very busy and overwhelmed with the harvest and taking care of the ranch. Most communication was absent, and we received minimal information of what to do and... More

If you are looking for a trendy spot, then keep on moving. But if you are looking to unwind, unplug and enjoy the company of great hosts (human and furred) and guests alike, then you must absolutely stay at Rustridge. It is off the beaten path, and for us that was exactly what we were looking for. Susan and Jim... More

We chose this place mostly based on these Trip Advisor reviews and a perusal of the website. This is not a critique of the hosts Jim and Susan as they were very nice and made super breafasts, but for the life of me I can't figure out why the other reviews don't contain the problems of location and quality that...

I believe that the reviewers made a last minute single night booking for our very horsey "Seabiscuit Room." Had they done a bit more research, they would have realized this was not their kind of place. We are off the beaten path, but not an hour from St. Helena, more like 20 minutes. The only way it could have taken... More

Based on TripAdvisor ratings, we decided to book Rustridge for a couple of days whilst in California this August. It turned out to be an excellent choice. What we really liked: - Great hospitality of the hosts, Jim and Susan - Jim was always around making us feel comfortable, offering free wine tastings of their delicious wines and enterntaining us...

I don't know what else I can say that the other reviews haven't already said....Jim and Susan are excellent hosts. They made us feel at home the minute we arrived. Our group of family and friends took the whole place and we did utilize the kitchen. It was so nice to be able to venture through Napa wine tasting and... More

RustRidge is the best place to go if you are in the Napa/ St. Helena area. The hosts, Jim and Susan, are the most amazing people! There dogs, cats, and Thoroughbred racehorse are beautiful creatures... Ever! Just off of the Silverado Trail all of your dreams await! The comfortable beds, cleanliness, hospitality, wine, landscape, food, atmosphere are all beyond expectations!... More
