Sweet 1BR/1BA cottage on a working farm about 10-15 min. drive into Healdsburg. Very nice amenities like bedding, large throw, 2 chairs, table, small fridge, kitchenware. Small gas furnace--takes almost an hour to warm up comfortably. Tiny bathroom with shower but no counter for toiletries. Downside was bed was too soft and lumpy. Porch area w/ BBQ, table & chairs--didn't use due to rain.

We absolutely loved our stay! It was a charming cottage overlooking the vineyards with a fireplace to keep us cozy. The grounds were beautiful and it was a fantastic location close to Healdsburg shopping and dining and close to many great wineries. A perfect couples getaway for a wine country getaway.

This one room cottage had everything you need for a short stay. The bed is super cozy and the views are beautiful. It is a short dive to town and right in the middle of wine country.

My best friend and I had a lovely time at the cottage. The bed was cozy and the grounds were beautiful! During the day, we walked into town. After dark, it was a very short drive.

Cute little cottage near Healdsburg on a pretty property. Five minute drive to downtown.

The Nest was perfect for our two-night stay in the fall. The corner fireplace kept the morning chill at bay, while the porches were perfect for an afternoon read in the sun. The views of neighboring vineyards was incredible. Everything was well appointed, and the location is so convenient to Downtown Healdsburg. The bathroom is tiny, but the hosts are upfront about this, so nothing unexpected. We definitely will be back!

I don’t know if I will enough space to tell you how wonderful our stay was. It was our first time visiting wine country and Lele (host) did not disappoint with all her amazing recommendations. The property grounds are absolutely gorgeous. You will find grape vines, fruit trees, olive trees, and the most beautiful landscaping. The pictures on the listing don’t come close to how beautiful this cottage is in person. The cottage is perfectly equipped with everything you need to have a relaxing time. The views from the wrap around deck and the kitchenette were breathtaking. The bed is like a dream! I have never slept as good as I did that week. We initially had plans to go to other parts of Sonoma and Napa, but with hundreds wineries with in minutes of the cottage, we stayed local. If you book, be sure to check out Bella and book the immersive experience, you won’t regret it. Everyone was so incredibly friendly and helpful. This place is truly magical. I cannot wait to go back!

Well-appointed cabin with beautiful views, an amazingly comfortable bed and close proximity to town and wineries.

Fresh white paint outside, rows of vineyards next door, calm grounds and stately, historic barn alongside walking paths, and spotless interior with a comfortable new bed and just enough sitting area--everything one needs for an effortless getaway. We made the best coffee we've had with the new, electric pour-over pot, found great dining and bakery suggestions from the hosts, and we definitely did not want to leave after two sunny days. Thank you Lele and LJ!

After a long drive and busy day, arriving at the aptly named “Nest” was like stepping into a cozy hug. The cottage is one of just two rentals on the property - which includes a private event space used several months of the year - and the outdoor “curb appeal” lived up to all the charm of the photos, set off from the property’s main driveway by a wooden gate and curved pathway winding through a small garden… leading up to a quaint wraparound porch. The cottage interior may not be huge (bathroom micro-vanity, I’m lookin’ at you!), but the overall living space was actually ample room for two. The view of the vineyard is picture-perfect - and since we arrived after dark, provided a special wow when opening the shades in the morning. The Adirondack chairs overlooking the vineyard were the perfect place for coffee in the morning and a pre-dinner glass of wine. We enjoyed our stay, and would definitely recommend!

We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay at Nest. The location was convenient and the grounds were absolutely stunning. While not a large space, it is thoughtfully appointed. Wish we could have stayed longer!
5.0
This is a cozy cottage excellent for a couple who appreciate a small space in a great location. The cottage is clean and tiny, but perfectly adequate. Much more space outside on a be wrap around deck surrounded by herb garden, vineyards, in wonderful setting. Quiet setting just 5 minutes from downtown Healdsburg and the doorstep to Russian River River Valley and Dry Creek Valley vineyards. Just a bit further to Alexander Valley. Would stay again.

First of all, it is called the nest which is so appropriate. It is cozily tiny, but we had everything we needed: little kitchen with coffee cups and wine glasses (no stove
which was no problem! Who wants to cook anyway?), nice tv, and a very comfortable bed. I booked based on the outside. The Nest has a wrap around porch with beautiful views of gorgeous landscaping and of green vineyards. We enjoyed the sun setting on the vineyard every night. We met Leighann while strolling the grounds, and what a delight she is. After inquiring about any needs we might have, she let us peek at the only other rental visible to us, The Coop. We fell in love! Anyone who wants a family getaway with peace and quiet, the beautifully appointed Coop is for you. Modern with rustic touches, the Coop has a dream kitchen, gorgeous dining area, and cozy, but elegant living room. This is a house with lots of room and rooms that invite you to relax. As the Nest is little and cozy, the Coop is a home with lots of outdoor decks with a hot tub with views of great landscaping and vineyards, a grill (which we had at the Nest as well), and a large patio table nestled under a sweet trellised pergola. Large windows are everywhere you look, so it’s light and bright and spotlessly clean. I am a recent widow so the privacy and soothing atmosphere was just what I needed. Each residence is private, large separate gates beddecked with vines… I’ve used up my space, so go and see for yourself. ❤️

Very nice. The place is small, as expected. Conveniently located to downtown Healdsburg and the wineries. But far enough out of town that it is quiet.
5.0
My schedule only allowed a 2 night stay here while in the area. But so worth it! Charming cottage & surrounding gardens & vineyard vista! And the most comfortable bed & linens I've slept in! So close to town (Healdsburg) & enjoyed a couple meals at Braves & Barndiva on final night. Both were recommendations when I booked this cottage. Was partly a work trip so didn't have time to visit town during the day but, would love to on a return trip. Thank you for a wonderful couple days away! Surpassed my expectations :)

What a delightful little cottage and the perfect spot to spend a long weekend in wine country! The cottage was a quick drive into town, had easy access to the highway, and was truly the perfect quiet location I was hoping for. The grounds here are lovely and there are killer views of the surrounding vineyards. I’ll definitely e staying here again during future visits to the area. Really a great place for one or two people looking for a quiet spot close to Healdsburg!

Couldn’t have been more perfect, thank you Lele and ru’s Farm for a beautiful stay. Can’t wait to come back.

Though small, a beautiful and relaxing cottage close to the Dry Creek Valley and downtown Healdsburg. Would recommend if you are going wine tasting.

The “Nest” is the best place that we have stayed in Sonoma. We would get up early each morning and hike nearby at Shiloh Springs Regional Park.Then on the way back we would stop at Quail and Condor for bread/goodies. We enjoyed the French Press and Fellow water heater and would enjoy our breakfast on the back porch overlooking the vineyard.
We always find our way to the Healdsburg Market on Saturday morning for gourmet foods and beautiful produce. We also check out the Bohemian Creamery for great cheeses.
It was delightfully cool in the mornings and late evenings so we could open the screened windows and enjoy the country air.

Cute little cottage. Peaceful, clean, comfortable, and private. Great location to visit local vineyards! First day was really hot so we sat on side deck and let the wind tunnel cool us off while we enjoyed the view. We loved our stay!

This magical cottage is absolute perfection! Every detail was flawless, from local whole bean coffee, to the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in. Waking up to birds chirping, with views of vineyards from the Adirondack chairs on the deck, was the perfect way to spend a few days in wine country. I can’t wait to stay here again!

The small and cozy cottage was very clean, quiet and perfect for the two of us. We loved the porches and the view of the neighboring vineyards. The surrounding garden is beautiful. We enjoyed our stay.

We loved the porch areas… perfect for enjoying a nice wine with occasional visits from a friendly cat. The gardens were lovely and the entire vineyard was very quiet during our stay. I think a nice addition to this property would be a hottub😁….. overall a fantastic getaway

This was an absolutely perfect place/location/property. I was here for my high school reunion that is further up Bailhache. The place is beautiful, cute, has just enough in it to be comfortable and not cluttered.

This is my third time staying at nest! I love visiting in the winter, this little cabin is SO COZY. In the non-summer/fall months, the property is quiet and I feel like I am in my own private oasis. After being out and about, I just love coming back to the gas fireplace and snuggling in. The cabin has its own little character and charm, and there's little touches that make it feel like you're being taken care of.

Ru's Farm is a beautiful and quiet location close to Healdsburg and all the wineries. We had a perfect and easy stay. Lele was easy to get in touch with, although we didn't really need anything. The cottage is just as advertised. Small, but everything you need. We enjoyed the grounds, gardens and porch very much. Definitely recommend and would stay again!

Great little spot to reset your mind and relax. Very quiet and peaceful area. Tiny, but just as advertised. Spent more time relaxing on the front porch than inside too. Good location for local wine tasting.
4.0
We gave it a 4 out of 5 stars for the location and privacy. The Cottage was nice but I think for us the cons outway the pros.
Pros
The Cottage is perfectly located in the wine country of Sonoma. When we stayed, the Cottage was totally private and only 1 time did we see a landscaper but no other guests. There is lots of room to enjoy the outside.
Cons
The bed was a problem for a few reasons. It is a murphy bed pushed up against the wall on 1 side so that person has to crawl out of the bed every time they want to get up. There is a 1' to 2' gap between the bed and the wall so it swallows pillows like a dryer swallows socks. It was impossible to sit up in bed to watch TV before we went to sleep. The bed is also very noisy so every time my wife or I moved, we woke the other one up. As noted by others, the bathroom is small, especially the shower and I had to open the shower curtain to soap up because there is no way to get out of the water. The view of the wineries on the porch is blocked by overgrowth of trees. You have to move your chairs about 50' out to the lawn for a good view.
