Among the various comparable options in the Healdsburg area, Dry Creek Villa is without comparison: comfortable, private, quiet, sophisticated and relaxing. Perched on a 40-acre hilltop right among the grapes at Lavender Hill Vineyards and about a mile up a paved private road and behind automatic gates, this secluded home comfortably sleeps 4 - up to 6 people max - and is the perfect retreat in wine country. It's just 12 minutes to the downtown Healdsburg plaza and is very close to many award-winning wineries. Lake Sonoma is also 10 minutes up the valley. The iconic Dry Creek General Store is a short drive away.

The full electric kitchen with granite counters comes complete with all the accessories to prepare light snacks or a complete gourmet feast, while a dishwasher helps make cleanup a breeze. Outdoors, there's a gas BBQ to grill your favorite foods. The vaulted, airy main room with its bamboo flooring has a rectangular dining table that seats up to six.

If business calls, there is a built-in desk for use with your laptop to connect to the available Wi-Fi network throughout the villa. After a long day of adventures, soak yourself in the secluded, six-person Sundance Spa while viewing the deep starry sky and then rinse off under the private outdoor hot-water shower. By prior arrangements requested during your stay, you may also be able to take a dip in the 48 ft. solar-heated lap swimming pool at the owner's house nearby (from approximately May until October).

The best thing is the view-truly spectacular. As stated in the description, and other reviews, there is a long winding drive up the hill on a very narrow road. You do have to drive 5mph to stay safe. The bedrooms are small but adequate. The bathroom is nice. The unit was clean. My main critique is that the place is "tired." The kitchen really needs to be updated. The toaster is old with burnt brown/black crud. Same with the coffee pot. The refrigerator and stove and dishwasher are very old. The cabinets appear to be 25 years old, or so, and the finish is deteriorating. The kitchen is functional but not esthetically appealing. For the price, one would hope for an updated kitchen. Again, the view is fabulous.

We had a great stay here! They owners were incredibly responsive and flexible. They also stopped by to make sure we had everything we needed when we checked in. The place is amazing - it's a secluded mountain retreat that is both removed from wine country, but also an easy 5 min drive to the heart of wine country and wine tastings. They have amazing views from the patio, where you see and hear only wildlife. There is almost zero light pollution, allowing you to see Milky Way Galaxy with the naked eye from the hottub in the evening. Incredibly quiet stay. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Sonoma Wine Country - especially Dry Creek and Russian River Valley.

We flew into SFA and made our way to the property with no problems. The road leading to the property is very dark, steep and windy so I recommend arriving before sunset. The location is perfect if you are visiting the area wineries. Visit The Bar and General Store at the bottom on the hill. The villa is very comfortable with comfy beds. The water takes its time heating up so plan for that. We enjoyed the views and our time on the terrace watching the sunrise/sunset. The kitchen is stocked with everything you'll need. I was happy to find a French press and electric kettle. We would highly recommend!

It was a beautiful setting. We stayed 5 nights but never met or heard from the owners at the other end of the driveway. Maybe they were not home during our stay or it may have been their practice to not bother renters. It is a nice home but could use a little bit of care. The fronts to all of the kitchen cabinets are in need of some sanding and a new coat of poly. I like to work with wood so I notice these things, but it is pretty apparent. We thought that the patio door should have had a screen so that we could have left the door open to get some breeze, but the mosquitos and flies were too abundant in the early evening. Not that I need bathroom towels to match but it is the little things that matter sometimes when you are renting a place. The screen over the sink has a decent size hole in it too so we could not have that window open either, one screen in the room that we stayed in was bent also so we could not have that particular window open because the wind would blow the screen in. Overall we enjoyed our stay but just felt that the home needed some updating. A little attention to detail, it would not take much to make it shine It has a great patio with great views, and is most definitely in a wonderful area.

We enjoyed our stay here! Steve was a very kind and responsive host and the views from the property were stunning. The only thing I would note for future guests is that the driveway is STEEP and we were not able to fit more than one car comfortably. When leaving the property, I was not able to turn my car around so I had to back out of the driveway down the major hill —without a backup camera, this proved to be challenging. That being said, if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city, this is a great place to do it! We had coffee on the patio every morning and listened to the birds chirp (without hearing cars in the distance which was fantastic). Thanks Steve!
