This home is an absolute dream, on top of a hill with outside views from every room. There is ample outdoor space with swings everywhere—perfect for our family Christmas.

The views (in all directions) make this home feel like a once-in-a-lifetime vacation, especially in fall when the foliage and vineyards are yellow, orange and red. The house is modern while remaining cozy. The property is a private escape, but is minutes from dozens of wineries and tasting rooms. The grocery store in Glen Ellen (Glen Ellen Village Market) is spectacular and there are plenty of restaurants nearby in case you don't feel like cooking. We just love this little slice of earth and can't wait to come back.

This house was absolutely lovely and we woke up every morning to the sound of woodpeckers and to all the animals roaming around. Wonderful views and amazing kitchen. It is a bit far from Napa and St Helena and other reviews have mentioned a windy road, but you can easily take a different route to avoid and the travel time is around the same. William was very responsive and communicative to all our questions and needs during our stay. We hope to be back again someday.

The house and the views on this property were STUNNING! The cozy couches by the fireplace were a great place to enjoy conversation and coffee. The morning sunset outside overlooking the mountains, deer, and hot air balloons were mesmerizing. The backyard was so perfect for fun moments and memories! Fortunately we were able to enjoy the pool on a super hot day and then bundle up in sweaters the next day to enjoy the cooler temperatures. An absolutely must for anyone who wants to enjoy this property to its fullest potential is to hire a private chef for a personalized, in-home meal! The cons- just for those looking to get a true layout of the home- is that there are only 2 showers in the home and only the primary bedroom has a shower/toilet combo. The other two bedrooms don’t have bathrooms, but there are two bathrooms in the hall for those guests to use. The extra cottage house is great too but a little walk to and from it. The converted garage was the coolest room but scorching hot! We were there on very hot days and with no AC it was tough to stay more than a few mins. Luckily we were so busy with wineries and restaurants we didn’t miss it.
This home is approximately 40 mins from Napa and on very very VERY swirvy, mountainside roads that are not for the faint of heart. If you’re planning to do most of your wineries in Napa, plan for this.
All in all, we could not have had a better birthday trip! William was an incredible property manager! Thank you so much!

The property itself is showing some age, but you can't beat the views! We encountered a few issues, but the property owner and manager were impressively responsive. Just be prepared for a decent hike to the wineries. Overall, our family of 8 adults + infant had a wonderful stay.

We had three great nights at this property. Had a private chef come and the kitchen was perfect for that. The grounds were lovely too, and gave us plenty of opportunity to take in the beautiful scenery. I would absolutely come back.

My family had an absolutely wonderful stay at this magical home and we can't wait to return. The property is stunning and there is so much to do on it for adults and kids - it's the perfect spot to get away with friends and family.

We stayed here for a wedding in August 2023! Property was absolutely incredible and described perfectly! The only issue was the bunk bed situation was a little weird. Fair warning it’s very hard to get Ubers if you don’t schedule ahead so either get a car for schedule one ahead of time! Overall great experience & would absolutely stay here again.

We enjoyed this beautiful property and all it had to offer! Our kids loved the swings, tennis, foozeball, nature to explore and of course the lovely pool!

We had a magical time at the lavender house. The setting views and house are next level and it doesn’t get much better than this. The moment we arrived we felt like we shed all our stress away! It’s a little far from everything but 15 minutes from Glen Ellen grocery store. We arrived around 4ish and Christy the property manager was there for a bit cleaning but she was nice. There's something for everyone here and the house is so spacious that adults and kids definitely can have their own space. William was super conscientious and accommodating and quick to fix little issues that we had. We can’t wait to book our next vacation here!

The home/property is just beautiful with stunning views from the decks, patio and pool as well as from inside. The house and decor is also beautiful but feels like a home with everything you could possibly need. Secluded but easy access to stores, restaurants etc. it was the perfect relaxing getaway for our family.,

Four of us had an excellent time at this beautiful property. It takes a few minutes to wind your way up the hill to the gates of the house, but it's worth it for the views and it's a very quiet area. However, it's close enough to all of the wineries and great restaurants to have a fabulous stay in wine country. And it's close to the Santa Rosa airport as well if you can fly into there. Will is a great communicator, the house has all of the amenities you could want (jncluding pool, hot tub, tennis court and basketball net), and we would all highly recommend staying here. Hope to be back again!

Wonderful property with magnificent views. Pool, tennis, basketball and other activities.
Very comfortable and quiet. Architectural beauty.
Some glitches and about 30 minutes to most excellent wineries were the only negatives. The owner was very helpful and quick to respond with answers. I would highly recommend this property.

the house worked out great for us and our friends, but the location was a bit of a drive to all the areas we visited. The view was outstanding but it was not a great location for us.

This home surpassed our expectations! Set on a hillside with amazing views, Lavender Hill House is enchanting. Peacocks and turkey stroll thru the yard, as you sit by the pool or play a game of corn hole. We cooked amazing meals and dined Al fresco. Hiked the hills to find a lush olive grove - just minutes from the Sonoma County vineyards.
The home is well stocked for entertaining, comfortable and beautifully curated with art and natural curiosities. Our host was quickl to respond with any questions we may have had. I am so grateful to have found this gem!
Thanks again!

This is an incredible property and the pictures don’t do it Justice. Fully stocked home with. Loss access to wineries and restaurants. The host was kind and communicative and even extended our check out due to flight delays. We had such a beautiful, peaceful time here and felt very cared for by our host. We couldn’t recommend this VRBO more highly.

We had a group of 8 adults and 1 infant and all fit into the home comfortably between the variety of bedrooms and seating within the house. The kitchen is huge and well stocked, and the view from the porch on a clear morning was breathtaking. The big windows make such a statement! I would suggest staying in the prime seasons because it appears prices are not much higher and you can actually use much more of the property. Our appreciation of the outdoors was limited because even the chairs in covered areas were soaked with water from the rain. We did have some problems with things not working, starting with the lock box to get into the house. The home owner is incredibly responsive and kind so it did not turn into a large issue. I am taking a star off the rating though because of the troubles we faced with a variety of broken/missing things, and a couple of people ended up sleeping on the couches because they found them more comfortable than some of the guest beds. Our schedule was much too busy to try and reach out to the owner for every little thing. Long story short, spend the money on this place when the weather makes it worth it.
