Lovely Large House in Sonoma

Lovely spot in wine country

House had great layout for family/friends. Plenty of space to relax and enjoy. We especially appreciated the wood burning fireplace on colder days. If you like to get up and go walking from a property this one doesn't really have that option - short walk down to main road but a minor quibble when you can get quickly get to many parks/trails. If we come back would definitely stay again!

Communication between VRBO and homeowners

Home was excellent and beautiful. But owner was not informed by VRBO of our reservation. He was staying there. VRBO needs to coordinate better with the homeowners.

Fantastic Bachelorette Getaway

My friends and I had a fantastic stay at Michael's property. It was tucked away from most of the Sonoma area which was perfect. It felt like we were nice and secluded! The pool was amazing. We had a little bit of trouble with the cover closing but I texted Michael and he came over the next morning to attend to it.he was super friendly and we ended up running into him out in downtown Sonoma as well. We had about 12-14 girls coming through the house for the whole weekend and there was plenty of space for everyone to sleep. Would highly recommend this property!

Great property for a chill family getaway!

We rented this property for three days and had a great time. It’s a quick drive to downtown, had a lot of activities for kids - basketball, bocce ball and ping pong, overall clean place, nice place to chill - we loved our stay and the owner was quite flexible and easy to work with. Overall, we’d come back if we are to look in the area again!

New Years Weekend

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property is fantastic and the house is large and accommodating including the great guest house. The only slight downside is the kitchen is very dated although everything works. Michael was very responsive during our stay. We’d like to come back in the summer/fall to better enjoy the pool and outdoors.

Sonoma Stay

Home is great with understanding owners. With the threat of rolling power outages looming this time of year the owners worked to secure a generator and water in case of emergency. It ended up not being needed but the owners were committed to helping our stay be the best it could be. They were very flexible and understanding of the situation which was greatly appreciated.

Serene Get-Away

Private, yet close-in property with lovely views and grounds. Spacious accommodations for all-love the 2 bedroom guest house-perfect for the guests that need a little extra privacy and quiet (my 9 month pregnant daughter and hubby). I had the absolute best 60th birthday at this property. Michael is a wonderful host. Very helpful with all our needs and requests-highly recommend!

Well maintained and clean property.

This was a wonderful house for a family gathering where the family could congregate for breakfast and snacks at leisure. It is in a great location close to Sonoma and its many nice restaurants. The on line photos set the stage for a memorable and relaxing retreat. The house and its vast property were well maintained and presented a warm and peaceful setting. We look forward to going there again. All members of our family loved it!

A Perfect Place for Us in Wine Country

Our group of 10 friends (40s) spent 4 nights on this lovely property centrally located to both Sonoma and Napa County Vineyards. It was perfect for our group with plenty of comfy beds and bathrooms! We wine toured for for two days and took a day to just relax and enjoy the property. It's too nice of a location to not spend some quality time there while sipping on some wine. The owner was very helpful with directions (flooding had closed some roads), restaurants, and any other tourist related questions. He also made sure that a coat that was left behind, made it's way back to Nebraska. The kitchen is amazing and we prepared some delicious meals while we were there. Upon the owners recommendation, we also had a meal prepared by a local chef and catering business. It was indeed a special treat that made the trip complete! We enjoyed the hot tub and outdoor fireplaces every night. It was a perfect place to celebrate a 40th birthday with good wine and even better friends! We'll definitely keep Buena Sonoma in mind when we return the next time to Wine Country!

Our Home Base for a Wine Country Wedding

We stayed at Buena Sonoma for a week in advance of attending a wedding nearby. The house is very spacious with an open floorplan, beautiful views from the deck and pool area, and easy access into town or the surrounding wineries. Michael the owner was a pleasure to work with and made himself available for a handful of questions we had during our stay as well. We would highly recommend!

Wine Country Trip

This house was awesome! Beautiful grounds, lovely location, everything we needed. We had 6 couples total and it was perfect for all of us. We toured both Napa & Sonoma wineries and this was a great location for both. We were able to fix breakfast in the mornings and cooked supper one of the evenings, and the house was equipped with everything we needed. We would definitely consider renting Buena Sonoma again!!
