About this property

Amazing grounds, pool, spa, & more!

IMPORTANT NOTES!! Please read our nightly requirements before requesting a reservation!! This serene and very private property is only five minutes from the Sonoma Square and very close to world class wineries and Napa County. We built this gorgeous 3,500 sq-ft home from ground up in 2013 with two things in mind: luxury and comfort!

Please read this about our minimum night stay: We have a five night minimum in April through end of May. We may occasionally do fewer nights if it falls during the weekdays or in between two reservations. We have a one week minimum from June 12 through August 20. For the Summer of 2020, we can accept three night reservations during weekdays. From August 20 through end of October we have a five night minimum. From beginning of November until end of March, we have a four night minimum but we would consider three night rental depending on the specific weekend. During Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day, and Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year, we have a one week minimum. Please send me a message if you have any questions about this, I'd love to chat!

Description: You will find here all top quality finishes, appliances, furniture, and amenities. Enjoy a swimming pool and built in hot tub. Enjoy outdoor lounge areas, large teak outdoor table under a trellis with grape vines, bocce ball court, and more. For kids, there are endless activities including swimming pool, outdoor playground (swings, monkey bars, etc), ping pong table, biking and more.

This is the perfect location in the wine country. It is very quiet and green. This home is 2 miles east of the Sonoma Square. You have access to all top quality wineries, most of them walking distance. Ravenswood, Buena Vista Winery, Sebastiani, Bartholomew, Gundlach Bundschu and other top wineries are a short walk or bike ride away. Of all wine country destinations, this location also is the closest to San Francisco, only 40 minutes away.

Enjoy a glass of Sonoma Pinot Noir on the deck, lounge by the pool, and enjoy an evening with the stars in the hot tub, all in an extremely private setting.

There is ultra fast wifi throughout the property, next to the pool, in all rooms and throughout the garden.

Unlike all the homes I personally stayed in the Sonoma Valley, this house is not built as a rental. Most rental homes in Sonoma look nice in pictures but are worn out when you visit them. They have old furniture, uncomfortable beds, dirty pools, etc. (no matter how nice they look in pictures). In contrast, this is a brand new home, built by the owners for the owners. We rent it only a fraction of the year. As such, it has all top of the line finishes, grounds, pool, furniture, kitchen, etc. The people who rented through other websites have said that this is the best house they have ever stayed in the wine country by far!

Here's the bedroom configuration:
* Room 1: Primary bedroom suite with a King size bed and grand, private bathroom
* Room 2: a Queen size bed, with a charming bunk bed. Ascend to the upper bunk, a cozy twin retreat Below, discover a spacious full-size lower bunk.
* Room 3: lavish Queen size bed. Adjacent to the bed, private ensuite bathroom
* Room 4: Brand new King bed
* Room 5: Brand new queen-size bed with a luxurious memory foam mattress along with a home office
* Room 6: Nestled adjacent to the main house, it offers the utmost privacy for a truly exclusive experience. An queen size bed with an ensuite bathroom awaits, providing a sanctuary of comfort and convenience

The main house has four bathrooms. Two in the bedrooms and two to be shared. The detached room has its own dedicated bathroom.

There is an additional fee required for heating the pool. Please inquire at the time of booking if you would like the pool heated for your arrival.

Important: Owner is severely allergic to pets. So absolutely no pets allowed. If you have a service animal, please disclose before requesting reservation.
*A damage deposit of $1000 will be held on your card used to book, for a period of 7 days, this hold will commence 2 days before your checkout
* We have a smoking-free environment. Smoking is not allowed in the House or in the common areas. If you smoke during your stay you must pay a $500 fine.
* We love animals too, but unfortunately we cannot allow pets on the premises
* The fruits and vegetables in the garden are intended solely for the owner's personal enjoyment. If you decide to bring home a basket filled with figs or tomatoes, a security deposit will be applied.
* The fire pit is not allowed to be used.

Wine weekdays

The property was just as described in the listing and photos. The spacious kitchen and dining areas were great for large family dinners for our group of nine. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms all with comfortable beds. The backyard was an oasis and provided for hours of relaxation. Although many of our wine tours were in Napa, this house was a reasonable drive away, and is very close to the shops and restaurants in downtown Sonoma. We really enjoyed our stay and would stay here again.

ENJOYING Life and Wine Country

Had - 4 couples from around the country - and this place did not disappoint. About the only negative comment we could make is that the property's curb appeal does not do the property justice. It looks very humble from the front -but is absolutely awesome inside. Bora - was great to communicate with -- -and all the logistics worked out great.

We had 10 people in our stay and there was plenty of room. the grounds are beautiful and the backyard is much bigger than even what you see in the pictures. we loved the hot tub. the kitchen had what we needed to cook at least one night. bedrooms were spacious and very nice! the location is great for easy access to downtown sonoma and to Napa given it sits on the east side of sonoma. we had a great time! I would highly recommend it!

Perfect Spot for Bachelorette Weekend

I had my bachelorette here and it was the perfect property! There was a lot of communal space in the house, and everyone had a comfortable bed to sleep in. The backyard is definitely what makes this house so special! The outdoor space is beautiful and really well-maintained. I would absolutely stay here again, it was perfect for a big group.

Couples Trip

We took this trip for our 30th Anniversary with 4 other couples. The property was perfect for hosting this many people, and our whole group loved the house. It is in a great location to visit both Napa Valley and Sonoma Valley wineries. The property is well maintained and managed. All in all it is an excellent place to stay. I would definitely stay there again. A big plus are the super comfortable beds. If you are traveling to the area with a larger group, I would definitely recommend staying here.

This place is fabulous!

We thoroughly enjoyed our almost two weeks at this great house/property! The house is great. The backyard is an oasis.... pool, hot tub, large table, grill, lounge chairs, covered area with great outdoor sofa/chairs (great place to read/relax), and beautiful landscaping/trees. Owner was great with communication, and the local manager was so helpful and great to work with. We had a family from ages 4 to 88. Highly recommend and would definitely stay here again.

My 50th bday celebration

This house was absolutely perfect for our group of 11 women celebrating my 50th in wine country! The number of beds and bathrooms, the kitchen was nicely sized and had everything we needed. The hot tub is very small but comfortably fit 4-6. I think most of the women suggest some more mirrors would be helpful since we had 11 getting ready every day at the same time. Loved the fireplace, but the tippy coffee table needs to go. The place in general was clean but it had an unusual odor. But not a huge deal. The property manager came over to help us with a few things…so nice and helpful! Loved the location! If in town you must get a sandwich at Sonoma’s best…! There was a lot of rules…be inside at 9pm with outside lights off. Bring garbage cans in from street, put garbage out to street, strip beds, start laundry. But we are all moms so it was fine. We had long days so it was easy to abide by the rules, but 9pm seems a little over the top. But I would do it all over again here in a heartbeat.

Great Sonoma Property

My family and I booked a stay in December, the property was incredible and we had a lovely visit. The house, pool, and hottub are all lovely. It was cold so we didnt use the pool, but the hottub worked great. All other amenities in the house were good. The house is in a quiet neighborhood so you have to be mindful of noise, but we didnt have any issues. The host was very communicative and helpful, we really enjoyed our stay. Would highly recommend this property.

Perfect Wine Country Home

This home was perfect for our group. The size, space, and amenities were great. We had 11 people and had plenty of space. The house is stocked with all the conveniences making our trip easy and relaxing. The proximity to downtown Sonoma, as well as wineries in the area, was very convenient and made the trip very enjoyable as we didn’t spend a ton of time in the car. The owner was very responsive and helpful. Overall, I would definitely recommend this property if you are looking for a relaxing wine country vacation!

Good Choice

Very nice property about 2 miles east of the square in a residential neighborhood. Lots of sleeping room and outdoor space is wonderful. Note however that contrary to the the photos, the fire pit and and trampoline are off limits to guests. Our family had a great 5 day stay for our daughter’s wedding but parking restrictions made it challenging to entertain extended family and friends -we had to shuttle folks back and forth a couple times. Am not keen on 100% payment, including security deposit, months up front but guess that’s the local market. All in all a good choice.

great yard

Great yard with lots to do for the kids. We had issues with AC, driveway work on neighbors drive (cut access to drive in half), some ants within the house, some cat dander (although not cat present). Issues with AC / drive are unpredictable. House was very clean although it is nearly impossible to perfectly clean from a cat and we probably would not have noticed except one of our members is allergic to cats. We bought some ant motels and placed out and significantly reduced ants. Owner was very responsive with AC although issue started on Sunday and could not be resolved until Monday. Overall we'd stay there again if available.

Amazing Property

The property was pretty amazing. We were 9 women meeting in Sonoma to celebrate our 40th birthdays. We nicknamed this place "the princess palace". The kitchen, living room, dining room lived up to it's nickname. The number of bedrooms and bathrooms were great for such an large group. The place was fully stocked in terms of linens and odds and ends. The backyard was amazing, though unfortunately the pool was a little cold, but it was the end of September, the hot tub was great. The only negative was that the beds ranged in comfort from OK to pretty uncomfortable. Also, the septic system was apparently quite sensitive (not that we had any problems) and we were asked to use only one square of toilet paper at a time - we managed by using the garbage cans for the toilet paper. I would definitely recommend staying here. The location was great - just a 7minute drive to Sonoma Square.

Host was difficult to work with

We didn't stay at this property. We were changed to a different and less desirable property because of plumbing problems. The property we were changed to had it's own septic plumbing problems, plus the built-in microwave did not work, the substitute micro was too small, the dishwasher was broken, all the dishes in the cupboards were dirty when we arrived and needed to be re-washed by hand, the dryer had to be run twice to dry a small load of clothes, the master bed door couldn't be locked or even would not stay closed, the overhead chandelier lights in the dining room could not be turned on because they super heated the wall switch which was a fire hazard, the walls were thin and you could hear what everyone in their bedrooms were doing, except for a couple of bedrooms the others were not suited for adults, the exterior lights did not work and you couldn't see to BBQ. The large back yard was not taken care of and was a landscape mess. We received no support or compromise from the host who was difficult to receive an adequate response from.

Septic Tank, Guest House, and Streaming Services

Overall, the house was very nice and very clean. We really enjoyed the location of each of the bedrooms inside the main house. We were very appreciative of the Keurig Cups that were available for use. In addition, the rental owner was very easy & quick to communicate with. However, there were a few comments that I would like to bring up related to the house. The first was the notice about the "very fragile" septic tank. I understand not everything has to be in the description for a house but I believe we should have been made aware of the fragility of the septic tank system prior to booking. This issue was a big inconvenience to all guests staying at the house. A possible solution to this issue would be to install a bidet in each toilet. Next, the family that stayed out in the guest house was disappointed by their bedroom. They had an eliptical sitting next to their bed that took up half of their room, there was a draft coming in from the door next to the toilet, there were no outlets or nightstands near the bed, and they were unable to use the television due to it being slow & the remote not working completely. Lastly, I believe that we should have been provided log in information for the streaming services that were used on the different televisions. This is because with exception to the television in the family room, none of the other televisions in the main house or guest house had access to even basic cable & required accounts for the streaming services.

A Perfect Week

What a perfect get away. We selected this spot to celebrate our very special 50th wedding anniversary and 70th birthdays with our kids and grand children. The house is exactly as represented and is a special place indeed. While not far from our homes it felt like we were in paradise. The house accommodated all of our needs. Located close to Sonoma Square so an easy run to town when needed. Located on a very quite street in an absolutely lovely area, the overall setting was wonderful. The yard was an absolute highlight! The pool (no need for supplemental heating in the summer) accommodated the entire flotilla of water toys and the spa and adjacent bocce were used extensively by all. The pool pavilion, outdoor dining and the mature garden and fruit trees provided the perfect backdrop for every activity. One of our most memorable getaways and celebrations ever.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the home and location first time we saw it. We rebuilt the whole house from ground up.

What makes this property unique

It is very hard to find a brand new home with luxury this close to Sonoma Square and to San Francisco. Also the privacy and quietness of this home make this a very unique destination.
