Retro Retreat: Cozy, Moderne, Affordable House in Wine Country.

3 bdrm, 2.5 bath for the price of 2 bdrm 1 bath rental!! We are offer low prices. We would rather book more nights at low rates than fewer nights at higher rates.

The Retro Retreat is a fabulous little house built in 1951 and recently updated for comfort and convenience with central heat and A/C. It is centrally located in a very quiet neighborhood just north of the town of Sonoma, with easy access to highway 12. We have an updated kitchen with new cabinets, appliances and granite counter tops.

The main living room, kitchen and dining area is open, providing an extra large space for entertaining and relaxing with family and friends. A great space for celebrating holidays, birthdays, anniversaries, or just long weekends! One entire wall of the living room, dinning and kitchen area is glass, looking out on a covered patio and large back yard. The floor plan is ideal for two couples or a family. Two bedrooms, a full and half bath are in one wing of the house, another bedroom and full bath are in the other. The living room, dining area and kitchen are in the center of the house, providing complete privacy between the two wings.

The Retro Retreat is just minutes from the Sonoma Plaza (2.4 miles) for shopping and dining experiences, and within walking distance of the world famous Sonoma Mission Inn & Spa. In just a few minutes, heading North on highway 12, you will visit dozens of the best wineries California has to offer.

If you want to stay in after a day of wine tasting, dinner is a snap with provisions from Whole Foods or Sonoma Market. In addition to the new kitchen, there is a BBQ, dining table, chairs and lounge seating on the covered patio. Plus, staying at the Retro Retreat is a great way to save your $$, so you can splurge all that much more on Sonoma’s fine wines and dinning.
When you book with us, let us know if you like red or white, so we can greet you with a bottle of one of our favorite Sonoma wines.

Girls Trip to Sonoma Valley
This place had everything we needed for a great trip to Sonoma Valley. It's location is perfect to go many directions to check out wineries and very close to Sonoma where we took the wine trolley from. Check in instructions and directions to the place was clear and easy to find. We would definitely stay here again.

Great place to stay in Sonoma!
My husband and I and 2 of our adult children stayed here for four days over Christmas. It was perfect! The space was clean, lots of amenities in the house, plenty of towels. It was easy to travel to see our family in Napa. Quiet neighborhood too. I would definitely stay here again. The owners were quick to respond to our questions. Again, a great place and great value! Thank you!

Thanksgiving in Sonoma
We have family members that live in Sonoma, so staying at your property worked perfectly for our Thanksgiving holiday. We were so grateful for your 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath house. It was the perfect size for my family (husband, and two adult kids). The weather was a little chilly, so we weren’t able to enjoy the lovely backyard, but it certainly looked inviting. Thanks again!

Second Stay
This was our second stay at this house for our annual wine tasting trip. We love it! The house has everything you need. One of our group loves to cook and was impressed with the well stocked pantry. The outdoor space is nice and the neighborhood is walkable to several places for food and ice cream.

Clean, convenient, and wonderful retro retreat house
This was a good find for what we were wanting ... married couple traveling from Colorado to meet with our adult daughter who was flying into SFO and then together spending time in Napa to see friends and clean out a storage unit. Two of the bedrooms are on one side of the house (with 1.5 baths on that side), and the third bedroom (with it's bathroom) is on the opposite side of the house through the main living area. So although we didn't need all three bedrooms, it was nice that we had some privacy from each other, private bathrooms, and then wonderful shared living space, kitchen, and DR that are open concept. Plus there is a nice covered porch on the back that provided outdoor seating and relaxing. Everything was clean, well-maintained, well-stocked, and in great condition. The hosts even left us a complimentary bottle of pinot noir to enjoy. We would definitely stay here again if we were to return to Napa-Sonoma area.

Don't overlook this property!
The owners are very honest in their description of this house. While they use "retro", I would use "dated", but it is still a great value for the area. It was the perfect size for 4 adults and the extra bathroom was great. The house was VERY clean and in a great location. The neighborhood felt very safe and was super quiet, even during 4th of July week. Very close to downtown Sonoma, with a fun ice cream store and a great coffee house (Barking Dog) just down the hill. The owners left a binder with tons of useful info. There are also board games and a gift of a bottle of excellent wine. The outside space was a bonus; we spent most evenings out there with wine and charcuterie. It was so pleasant. I would definitely come back - highly recommend!
