Lovely Property, Great Host.

We had an amazing time at Harry’s estate. The property was more grand in person than it looked in pictures. There was every amenity that we could imagine and more. Harry was very easy to get in touch with and responded promptly when we had questions. The gifts and thoughtfulness went well beyond what we expected. This was our best experience with VRBO yet. We would definitely rent this place again.

Wonderful place to stay with a large group

We really enjoyed our stay here. The home was clean and comfortable. The outdoor spaces were amazing. It was an easy drive to downtown. The host really took care of everything and was very thoughtful. There are many different spaces in the home to spend time in and was perfect for a large group. I would absolutely come back.

Amazing Oasis

One of my best experiences with VRBO. The house was perfect for our group of 10. The back yard is stunning and the perfect place to enjoy time with your group. The hosts were great and even left us a full spread of local treats upon arrival. I would come back in a heartbeat.

60th Birthday Celebration

We had a wonderful time during the long President’s Day weekend at the Wine Country Redwood Estate. This place is nothing short of incredible. It’s very large with several nice spaces for friends and family to stretch out and enjoy the nice accommodations. The house is clean and Harry the owner has everything marked clearly. He has thought of everything, so you really do not need to bring anything with you. Harry made a point to ask us the type of wine and beer we liked, and then had a very nice welcome package for us on arrival. A few bottles of wine, 2 six packs of beer and an excellent charcuterie board with high end cheese, meat and crackers. It rained most of the time we were there so we could not enjoy the yard and deck, but we could tell the outside areas were well maintained. Harry was always on the ball with communications, and you can tell he really cares about your visit. The location is great, it seems we were never more than 30 minutes from any place we wanted to go in Sonoma and Calistoga. We cannot recommend this property and owner highly enough, you will definitely not be disappointed. If we ever make it back to wine country we will try to stay here.

In appreciation of the Wine Country Redwood Estate

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Wine Country Redwood Estate. The home was beautifully appointed and had everything to make our stay comfortable. We enjoyed being surrounded by the beautiful redwood trees, hearing the rain on the roof and snuggling into comfortable beds with lovely soft sheets. The house was ideally located for local outings into Santa Rosa and neighboring communities. Your welcome gift of wine, cheese and more was delightful. Thank you for the clarity of your communications and kindness in making your home available to us. In gratitude, Jana and friends

Great work retreat location

The house was amazing for our office team retreat and provided plenty of space for us to hang out and chat both inside and out. There were plenty of rooms, beds, and bathrooms and the kitchen was just enough for us to cook all of the group meals needed. Harry was amazing with giving us the property details ahead of time and was an amazing host throughout our stay. The outside deck area was amazing to enjoy the nice weather on and all of the trees made it feel like we were secluded away in the mountains but with the convenience of being relatively close to groceries and stores.

Girl’s Weekend

We were there for my birthday weekend/girls weekend, there was 8 of us, there was more than enough room for everyone to be comfortable in their own bed (2 ladies shared a King). The house and property is absolutely gorgeous, the host has about every amenity you would want from a charcuterie, snack tray with wine and beer, as well as coffee and creamer. There was shampoo, conditioner, and body wash in the bathrooms. We got to enjoy the Jacuzzi both nights and one night around the fire pit, but we wish we had the whole two days just at the property because that would’ve been amazing but we had tours scheduled so we were not there during the day. We will definitely stay there again in the future, and just have our food and wine at the property to enjoy it. Our host was very accommodating, and we loved everything, thank you so much.

Great stay.

Overall an amazing place to rent and relax. Amenities are awesome! Host was very generous in giving us a few items to consume. One small thing about the neighbors. They don’t like noise one bit. Not sure why they would call in noise complaints when our noise level were at a minimum. Not a reason to ding this rental down on a negative review. Thank you for the stay. You made our wedding weekend special.

Redwoods Hideaway

Perfect spot for weekend in wine country or just relaxing in comfort. A great house for family gatherings with thoughtful owners who make everything welcoming and easy to find. It is in a residential area, with neighbors who apparently object to noise that isn’t of their own making. But moving inside to spacious living room and game room is a great alternative. Loved our time here!

Treated bad by neighbors!

Do not rent if you are planning on utilizing the backyard of this property at ANY time during your stay!! The neighbors are very rude and offensive to the guests. The neighbors do not tolerate short term rental at all. At 5pm in the evening the neighbor to the left had a problem with a group of 8 sitting outside and having a conversation. She came through the fence and started yelling out expletives. She then proceeded to turn on loud music facing where we were seated hoping to get us to move inside. Soon after she turned on her garden hose and proceeded to spray us intentionally with water. This went on for an hour or so. When I informed the owner of the property, he was not at all sympathetic to what we had gone through. He directed me the the house rules that were inside the home. These harsh rules were NEVER communicated to me at anytime during my reservation process and were not posted on VRBO. “Out door music is not allowed. We recommend earphones should you wish to listen to music on the property”. Or that “Without anything other than very very soft talking”. If I knew these rules, I would never have rented this place. The house rules on VRBO does not reflect the one page rules that I was directed to after checking in. Our time at the property was very stressful and we did not enjoy our stay as we had intended. We paid good money for our stay and were treated like delinquents with multiple neighbors peeping through to fence to either yell vulgar

Family Weekend Away

The property is wonderful! Big house with many different living spaces which allowed all of us to have time together and also time apart or in smaller groups. We did not leave the house a ton but had access to close by grocery stores etc. (whole foods, safeway). It is obvious that one of the neighbors is not pleased that the house is a VRBO as they have signs up proclaiming "Houses not hotels" facing the property but we had no issue with nieghbors as we followed the directed quiet hours. Outdoor space lovely and well managed! No complaints whatsoever!

About the host

Hosted by Harry Albers

The property took 5 years to find and 4 years to build. The house was originally build in the 70’s and was doubled in size in the 80’s with the addition of the library and extra bedrooms. The house was once filled with hundreds of dental-medical journals in which Dr. Albers used to write his text books on dental bonding. At the time his texts were among the first on the subject and translated into 5 languages and used worldwide. With the advent of the digital world all of the needed journals and books became digitalized and the need for a library was gone. Presently, the worlds journals can be accessed from a laptop anywhere in the world there is a wifi connection. The estate and its grounds are so beautiful Dr Albers wanted to share it with anyone who visits the area and would appreciate its surroundings.

The home is all mid century modern with technology upgrades. Most lights go on and off as you walk through the home and charging stations for your electronic are everywhere. The plush leather and satin furniture is a pleasure. We hope you enjoy your stay and are inspired by the surroundings.

The host can provide any desires extra services from massages, private chefs or drivers.
