~ ABOUT THE INN ~

The Hidden Oak Inn is a tastefully restored California Craftsman Bungalow with beautifully decorated rooms. Built in 1914 by Ralph E. Murphy, this large, two-story house has a high gabled roof and a front porch framed with Wisteria. The Inn was originally a home for families and later a home for teachers and nurses during WWII. In the late 1940's the Episcopal Church (which use to be next door) purchased the home to use as a refectory. The home was lovingly converted to a Bed and Breakfast 1984 and has been home to Don and Valerie Patterson and their son Taylor since 1999.

The casual elegance of this historic bed and breakfast reflects a time of serenity and beauty. In an effort to preserve the past, the innkeepers have added many antiques and collectibles throughout the Inn. The spacious rooms provide a restful interlude for two after a day of wine tasting or exploring the town. Romance abounds while reading by the cozy fireplace in the parlor, enjoying the mild Sonoma climate on the front porch, or sharing a glass of wine by the pool.

Come and join us for a romantic weekend getaway, celebrate a special occasion, mini family reunion, girl’s night out, or just a relaxing vacation amid the unforgettable wine country splendor.
