Enjoyable getaway in Sonoma
This property is cozy and plenty of space, bedding and seating for 12 (we had 9 there). Kitchen had all the necessary amenities to cook meals in-house. Close driving proximity to activities in the area. Highly recommend olive oil tour/tasting, winery tours/tasting and Sonoma State Historic Park.

The property is gorgeous and well maintained. It was the perfect spot for celebrating a 60th birthday with friends and some family members! We loved the outdoor patio and the beautiful landscaping. We also made some wonderful meals in the well stocked kitchen.

Beautiful setting, cozy and spacious
We had a wonderful time swimming, sitting outside, chatting and cooking for a crowd. The property is lovely both indoors and out. It feels like a well-loved family home. It was a fun and relaxing visit. The property has beautiful landscaping and there were a ton of different birds frequenting the yard: quail, woodpeckers, hummingbirds and hawks. Stephen was very helpful with check in and any questions that came up. We only stayed a couple of days and I wished we could stay longer. I'll definitely keep it in mind for future events.

Thoroughly enjoyable family retreat
We have a large family that does a retreat each year in Northern California. For 2024, we selected Santa Cruz and booked. Unfortunately, that reservation was cancelled in March due to the owner needing to sell (for unforeseen reasons). We scrambled to find a replacement and luckily stumbled upon Secluded Arts and Crafts Style Family Estate in Sonoma. The reservation process was quick and easy and Steve (owner) was accommodating in allowing a third dog and provided a very clear rental contract and access instructions/house rules. We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived and fully enjoyed the house! Several high points - Area is very quiet (we were as well) and private. Downtown Sonoma is very close for those that wanted to venture in. The house isn't new, but it appears to have been very well maintained over the years. We had no issues with power, water, plumbing, furniture, etc. We had no need to contact Steve during our stay. House has many areas (inside and out) that are pleasant for gathering/relaxing/reading, etc. Parking is plentiful and easy (we had a max of six cars during our stay). Kitchen is well stocked and big enough to allow for several cooks to work simultaneously. While we generally try to go different places each year, several family members have already expressed a desire to return. The Harvey Clan NOTE - We had 12 adults in the house for most nights. There are five bedrooms and the loft above the dining room, so we had no issues '

Perfect Sonoma base
Came here as a group of 12 celebrating a 40th birthday. Suited our needs perfectly! The outdoor areas were absolutely the highlight, with most of our time at the home spent in the pool, hot tub, or patio. Steve was incredibly responsive and helpful. Thanks for a great weekend!

Beautiful property with lots of outdoor space. We visited on a very hot weekend (97F!) and the air-conditioned home, and the pool, were a lovely place to relax in. Outdoor space is ample and great for dog to run around in, the premises were clean and property manager responsive to questions. Thanks for a great stay!

Wonderful Family Gathering
A great house - inside and outside. The photos don't do it justice. Good sleeping quarters; we managed just fine with 2 bathrooms. The refrigerator needs an upgrade - missing shelves, broken drawer, making it diffficult to store and then later find our food. A quick wipe down of the table on the patio would have been nice. Also, we would have enjoyed the pool more if it was heated. Other than that we loved the house and the location. We would definitely rent this house again.

Lovely Location + Stay
We had a lovely time staying at this property! It was great to have enough bed space for our large group, we enjoyed the pool and close proximity to Sonoma and the many wineries! My only comment/feedback would be to be prepared to have to buy toiletries and, in our case, even toilet paper when you have a bigger group.

About the host

Hosted by Steven Mansfield

Host profile image
I am originally from Massachusetts and moved to California 34 years ago. I am a local dentist (Prosthodontist) and work in the city of Napa. Most weekends I can be found either skiing, motorcycling, or playing golf. My east coast roots shine brightly as I am a 'die-hard' ice hockey enthusiast.

Why they chose this property

My professional life as a dentist brought me to the Sonoma/Napa Valleys 34 years ago. I was fortunate to have purchased this idyllic location in 1995 and raise my two daughters here.

What makes this property unique

My Sonoma home remains very much the same as it was when we lived there and thus you should experience a very 'lived in, homey' feeling while relaxing in our home.
