    We’d stayed at the main inn before, and we wanted to check out one of the cottages. The room was spacious, clean, and very private. We slept on the best bed after enjoying a strong shower. Service was superb from check-in to happy hour and breakfast.

Company information

Dave and Katie have been avid B&B'ers and wine enthusiasts for decades. Their love affair with wine and the social appeal of saying in friendly inns began with annual wine country trips to California wine regions as an escape from the Phoenix heat. Eventually, corporate obligations brought them to California where the goal of owning a Wine Country inn was put in place. The dream came true in May 2012 with the purchase of the Edison Street Inn in Santa Ynez, CA with lifelong friends. Soon, the inn was rebranded ForFriends Inn and a new adventure had begun. We LOVE being innkeepers, meeting new folks every day, and creating wonderful lasting memories for each of our guests.
