What a wonderful find. This place was beautiful. Rooms are gorgeous with a deep jet tub, extra large shower and the bed was huge. The outside patio led out into the vineyards. Can't wait to go back with friends and family.
The rooms are perfect temperature, clean, balcony is amazing with views and the staff have customer service talent. I would definitely recommend the Carter
We stayed here for one night, but next time we’ll stay several days. One night was too short, and all the staff here were incredibly kind, so I highly recommend this place.
The room was amazing. The views of the vineyards were beautiful especially early in the morning with the hot air balloons. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We will be back in the future.

Such a nice hotel to stay at. They were actually like little bungalows with your own private patio over looking the vineyard. Staff was so nice & rooms were nice & big & clean. Will def be staying here again if we come back to Temecula
We had a great one night stay. After a day of visiting wineries, it was nice to spend the night, relax, and drive home the next day. The room was clean and well appointed. We also liked that every room had their own parking spot out front. Although our room was not ready at the check-in time, we were offered a complimentary tasting and late check-out, which was a nice touch on their behalf. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay and would return.
Room is always clean, comfortable, relaxing, spacious shower and bathroom. It was a joy watching the hot air balloons from our patio outside our room. The room was quiet and relaxing.
We stay in the Vineyard Bungalow and enjoyed it very much. Room was clean. Very spacious bathroom with walk in show and a tub large enough for two. Recommend to anyone looking for a quiet room with great service.

Liked: Cleanliness
The reception staff was very welcoming. The location was perfect! The views from the room amazing. We walked to nearby wineries for tastings.
The room was very 80’s and totally outdated. Pillows extremely uncomfortable. Phone didn’t work which is not a big deal unless you want to reach front desk. The resort fee is ridiculous.
I would definitely stay at this property again and hopefully they will have comfortable pillows.
Stayed here for our wedding last weekend, along with many of our guests. We had such a lovely stay, and appreciate the staff being patient with us and all of our guests. We loved the huge tub and the complimentary wine bottle at check in. Beautiful views,too!! We could see our wedding venue from our patio 🙂
Easy check in. The room was clean and comfortable. It has an electric fireplace which made it cozy on a cold and raining night. It also has a private covered patio open to the vineyard. We enjoyed the free wine we received at check in.
Amazing place to reconnect with your loved one. Complimentary bottle of wine and great view of the vineyards. We had to switch rooms because of a malfunction in the shower but staff was quick and upgraded us and no hazle. Friendly staff.👍
