Mark and Darrel are terrific hosts! This was the best summer I have had in a long, long time as the weather was beyond extraordinary. I have now come to the conclusion that one day soon I will live in this beautiful Wine Country!

I had the most incredible stay at this exceptional property in Kenwood, CA. It's a true triple threat, offering luxury, a stunning setting, and hosted by genuine, kind people who care about your experience. The unit itself has everything you could possibly need, but the true magic lies in the lush and curated gardens that surround it. As a vegetarian, I was in heaven with the host, Mark, going above and beyond, even gifting me fresh vegetables from the garden. The personal garden attached to the unit provided a private oasis with ample sun and shade, and the design was reminiscent of something out of a magazine. I was enthralled by the variety of birds, including hummingbirds, and the breathtaking mountain views. The gourmet kitchen, along with the spacious and open living room, made it a perfect work-from-home space. Everything was immaculately clean, and the multi-head shower in the bathroom was a luxurious touch. The main bedroom with a fireplace, high-quality mattress, and sheets ensured a restful night's sleep. The new and comfortable outdoor furniture beckoned you to spend most of your time in the beautiful garden. The area of Kenwood, CA, is a paradise for foodies and wine enthusiasts alike, with quick access to some of the world's most elite restaurants and refined wines. Most importantly, Mark and his partner were exceptional hosts - friendly, respectful, and always just a text away if I needed anything. I can confidently give this place 10's across the board.

Mark and Darrel were incredible long term hosts who made you feel part of a community and balanced that with great peace and generosity It’s a perfect long term stay for anyone wanting beautiful surroundings and a moment to regroup Thank you so much!

Very beautiful cottage, easy to find. Tucked away nicely, cozy comes prepared to relax. Close to all the best wineries & restaurants. When cooking open all Windows & vans. Very sensitive fire alarm goes of non stop then had the owner Mark call us multiple times while trying to enjoy my husband birthday dinner. Then same thing in the morning for breakfast which was very frustrating. We felt very bad for the alarm constantly bothering both parties.....but nothing wr could really do. Great place for couples who want a weekend getaway or who have a lay over flight very relaxing.
