About this property

Lovely Home & Cottage with Pool, Bocce and Game Room Near Sonoma Square

Welcome to The Fir & The Fig!

We are set on a private road 2 miles east of the Sonoma plaza and walking distance or a short bike ride to some of California's oldest and best wineries. Our location is in the heart of the wine country and only 40 miles from the Golden Gate Bridge. We're on Sonoma's coveted east side so Napa is easily accessible in 15 minutes drive. You can start your day with a drive to Napa or just enjoy the laid back historic wineries all around you in Sonoma. We are uniquely positioned with wineries all around on old country roads so minimal traffic. This offers a unique opportunity to tour the area by foot or on bikes. There is a great article on our direct website along with a map with more details. Our favorite mode of transportation is cruising the bikes to a couple wineries en rout to the famous Sonoma plaza which offers an abundance of tasting rooms, 5 star restaurants and great markets. The plaza also hosts many great festivals throughout the summer and fall so you never know what you might roll up on.

Now that you know what's around us let's talk about the great property you would be enjoying when you're not out and about. We just finished major renovation so everything including the beds are brand new. We have a large hot tub just off the back deck that overlooks our brand new in-ground swimming pool. The pool features an auto-cover and solar heat which keeps it very comfortable for at least 6-7 months of the year. We can monitor the heat remotely, and if needed, we can use our gas heater to get it to your desired temperature in the off-season. There will be an additional charge if gas heat is desired. We have just completed our new bocce court and installed new landscaping for 2016.

5-Star Review for this Sonoma Stay!
We couldn’t have picked a better spot for our family getaway in Sonoma! The house was perfect for our group of 11, with plenty of space for everyone to enjoy. We made great use of the game room and kitchen, and the location was fantastic—super convenient with easy check-in and check-out. One of the highlights was how stress-free the stay was, especially compared to other rentals. There weren’t any extensive check-out instructions, so we could simply pack up and go, which was a huge plus for our group. The pool cabana would be perfect for bigger kids or teens, but it was a little small for two adults. However, we made it work and appreciated having that extra space! Overall, this place was a gem, and we’d absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend it for families or larger groups looking for a relaxing and fun stay in Sonoma!

Wonderful place to stay with friends
This is a great property and was so comfortable for our group of friends. The game room and other amenities were perfect. Also, the location felt very central to everywhere we went. Would definitely like to come back. Two minor recommended improvements: most premium properties we’ve stayed provide more paper products and didn’t expect us to do much of the cleaning on departure day. Both felt stingy given the rental rate of this property.

Comfortable Venue
We were pleased with the cleanliness of the property. The beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was well supplied. We especially enjoyed our time around the pool even though we never rolled back the cover. The cabana was smaller than anticipated but manageable. We had to contact the owners once, and they were quick to respond. We enjoyed our stay. We would recommend this property.

Very nice home to stay in!
This property is very nice & the owners are very attentive to any needs that come up. We were a group of 3 couples who are close friends & this provided a homey setting for cooking, playing games, watching sports & home base for our wine tasting excursions etc. The kitchen & open living area were very nice & updated well. Our only complaint would be that the 2 bedrooms in the villa were quite small & cramped. I would suggest trading out one or both of the king beds with bunk beds. Otherwise a wonderful place to stay!

Great home for family
We booked the property for a wedding and had our entire extended family stay here. The group loved the pool and outdoor garden and patio areas, and the kids spent a lot of time in the separate game room. It was quite close to the Sonoma downtown area and a beautiful neighborhood to walk around.

Kumquats and Lemons and great Kitchen
I stayed at this property with my extended family; we were a group of 9 adults. The weather varied during our late April week but when the sun was out, no matter the temperature, it was delightful to sit outside on the varied decks or by the pool. The figs were not ripe at that time of year but my husband did make fresh kumquat/lemon juice every morning! The best part of the main house was the large dining table and its proximity to the kitchen island. Everyone pitched in (which I love) to cook two big dinners and a big breakfast! What a beautiful area and place!

Wonderful holiday house
Our family of 11, ages 7to 77, stayed a this property and it met everyone's needs. We cooked all of our meals there and there was plenty of cooking gear for our gourmet cooks. We had rain for all but 3 ours of our three and a half days there and it was never an issue. The children used the fame room, we played board games on the dining room table, charades in hte living room and never turned on the TV. There are terrific walks nearby. We took one before the rain started up again. Chris was very responsive to my calls. We hope to return next year.

Wow! What a gem!
Booked this for my friend’s 40th birthday celebration and WOW did it deliver. Lots of comfortable bedrooms. Well stocked kitchen with dishes/pots/pans. Fun game room and comfortable living room. Hot tub is A+. Close enough to town, but still out in the country so it’s nice and quiet! It was a treat sitting on one of the many decks and listen to the creek in the back of the property while having a cup of coffee. Will definitely be looking for more opportunities to stay here! We had one child with us. And the guest house is close enough to the main house that we could have a baby monitor set up. This place is a great stay for families.

We were able to enjoy the new year with room for everyone and lots of activities. The pool and hot tub were a treat for the entire family. The kitchen and dining room were a fun place to gather at meals. The beds were all comfortable and the best part was enough space for a large group. Thank you so much! It was so clean and easy to spend time here.

Fabulous 50
We rented this as a retreat for our ladies group celebrating their 50th birthdays. It was PERFECT!!!! The house was stocked with accommodations we needed, and it felt like a home away from home! Everything was beautiful and clean, and the space allowed for people to spread out and retreat away from the group once they have had enough “peopling”! I would HIGHLY recommend this home for families and groups wanting a quiet Napa experience!

Sonoma Nine
We loved the house, especially the warm pool, hot tub, the game room, very well stocked kitchen with spices and condiments. Being coffee lovers, we appreciated the coffee pot and large mugs!! The grounds around the house were beautiful, with lots of spaces to relax and talk. We have very few negatives to report. There was a room that we expected to have 2 beds but only uas one in the cottage. In spite of the noise requirements, there was a noisy rooster very early in the morning who obviously didn’t know the rules. Overall, we highly recommend this house.

About the host

Hosted by Chris & Maura

Host profile image
We are East Coast transplants who moved to San Francisco 20 years ago. While we enjoy life in the city, we truly love escaping to Wine Country. We were drawn to the natural beauty, tranquility and local charm of Sonoma's East Side. After a very long search, we found the property of our dreams and remodeled it to create The Fir & The Fig. We take great pride in managing the property ourselves, staying involved in the community, and doing all we can to provide our guests with a truly memorable Sonoma Wine Country experience.

Why they chose this property

The Fir and The Fig is just a short 1 hr drive from San Francisco, is easily accessible from the greater Bay Area, but it feels a world away. It's the perfect escape to enjoy peace, tranquility, and an authentic small town feel without the long travel time.

What makes this property unique

Location, location, location! We love the secluded feel of our property while being such close proximity to so may great wineries and the Sonoma Square. We especially love the ability ride bikes or walk to nearby attractions without getting into a car.

Please note that this is a property for those who want to relax, regroup and unwind. It is not a suitable location for groups that want to party into the night.
