Philo Apple Farm Guest Cottages

Top choice in Along Highway 101


Set within the orchard, guests of bucolic Philo Apple Farm choose from four exquisite cottages, each built with rustic materials. With bright, airy spaces, polished plank floors, simple furnishings and views of the surrounding trees, each one is an absolute dream.

Red Door cottage is a favorite because of the bathroom – you can soak in the slipper tub, or shower on the private deck under the open sky. The cottages often get booked with participants of the farm’s cooking classes, so book well in advance. For a swim, the Navarro River is within walking distance.
