Clean, comfortable, and nicely decorated home with great views. 15 minute drive to downtown Sebastopol and 30 minutes to bodega bay. Very easy to relax and take it easy on the deck.

We stayed here 9 days. It was just my husband and I and our old dog. It was a good size for our small family. We enjoyed the well appointed furnishings, it did feel like a warm friend's home, instead of a an Air B&B. I loved seeing the hot air balloon go by the window in the morning.
My husband had to work and said the setting was comfortable, and the internet worked great.
The linens and towels could use a refresh, but otherwise the house was great.
One thing to note is that the fireplace is not usable, due to county restrictions, but its is nice to look at.
It was winter, so we could see some of the neighbors roofs, but it is really quiet, so it did not bother us at all. In fact we actually enjoyed meeting, and sharing a glass of wine, with some of them.
The location is a highlight. Extremely easy to access some of our fav West county spots, like Graton. Super easy to get to Both Healdsburg and Sebastopol!
We would stay here again.

What a beautiful place to stay. So stylishly decorated. The beds were super comfy. And the house is so centrally located with a lot of great restaurants and attractions close by.
Booking and check-in went without a hitch. Our only regret is that we didn't book for a longer time.

This is a great property. Out in the country, between Forrestville and Sebastopol, and 20 min from Healdsburg. Excellent kitchen, comfy beds, great shower. We enjoyed the hot tub as well as the deer as we had a glass of wine on the deck. We highly recommend this property!

We enjoyed this home and its quiet location. There were a few minor things that could be improved upon. The pillows are old and flat and need replacement. There was also no shower soap or shampoo upon our arrival but that was quickly resolved. Overall, we were happy with the house and had a great weekend there.

Great house with all the needed amenities. Awesome deck with hot tub, webber grill and amazing views.
5.0
Great communication with the property manager. House is in great shape although some small things need re-pair e.g. there is a note that says 'be careful with microwave handle as it is broken on the bottom' which could be fixed rather than leaving a note. Also the shower curtain liner was ripped through more than half of the holes- an easy $15 replacement. But dont let that discourage you, the house is amazing, deck has a beautiful view, and location is perfect for wine tasting. I will stay here again.

We rented the house to visit Sonoma county during barrel tasting weekend. The location was perfect. The house was clean and well stocked. Plenty of cookware, dishes, etc. Beautiful view in distance and can only imagine how it looks with all the vines and flowers blooming. The beds were comfy. The only disappointment was the fire place was not usable. We thoroughly enjoyed it.

We stayed here almost a week and it was very convenient to all areas of Sonoma County. There are more neighbors than it seems like it from the pics but it was very quiet nonetheless.

My cousin and I, and our husbands, celebrated our 50th anniversaries together in Napa and Sonoma and thoroughly enjoyed our week-long stay at this lovely home. Being interior designers in Wisconsin and Virginia, we appreciated the tasteful style and care that went into this exceptional property. It was a pleasure to treasure the ambiance, the comfort, and the extraordinary views.

This house is nestled in the vineyards in a quiet court. We were just a short drive away from vineyards and wine tasting. We also enjoyed the Redwood forest and a trip to Napa. Healdsburg was about 20 minutes away and less commercial than Napa.

It was in a quant neighborhood unplugged from the local towns, which is exactly what we wanted! Everything we chose to do with within 15-30 minutes so it was the perfect home base. And the backyard views gave you the experience of wine country on the times you didn't want to leave the property.
