I really could not say a bad thing about this place. I felt comfortable and welcomed immediately when I walked in. They have a cabin log journal that everyone writes down the experiences they had and it was such a lovely touch to see how others had a great time, and to learn other spots to check out. Snack basket was a great perk too! If in the area again, I would choose the wine loft a thousand times.

Perfect Wine Trail Accomodations

Centrally located to all the wineries and was a great place to stay. Steve was super responsive to the few questions and we couldn’t ask for a better trip. The gas grill and fully stocked kitchen allowed us to cook dinner in and enjoyed the fire pit and hot tub each night. The beds were comfortable, AC was cold and furnishings were well appointed.

Loved our stay at the Loft! Was so easy to travel the wine trail. The Loft itself was perfect for us. We were looking for a weekend of R & R, this was the perfect spot! Hot tub was a perfect spot to relax before hitting the wine trail and then a perfect spot to relax after a busy day to relax with a nice bottle from the wine trail. We will definitely be back!

Perfect Getaway Spot

Alto Pass Loft is a great property located perfectly close to wineries and other amenities, yet far enough away from the hustle and bustle we were looking to get away from. From booking to check-in, through our stay and check-out, was convenient and hassle free. The property is ADORABLE and exactly as shown in the pictures. Everything we needed was already there (kitchen items/spices/coffee, extra towels/toiletries). The hot tub was such an added perk and made our stay even more relaxing and enjoyable. Our host, Steve, was amazing with communication from booking to check-out and the welcome basket of snacks was super thoughtful!I would absolutely recommend Alto Pass Loft and being hosted by Steve.
