About this property

Wine Country In-law Unit with Patio

Enjoy a slice of the Sonoma life in this charming in-law unit. It's great for eating in or relaxing on the garden patio before dinner reservations. Many amenities are within walking distance and its just a few minutes drive to great wineries and the historic downtown Sonoma Plaza. I have many favorable reviews on another well-known rental site, which I also use to advertise this rental, so don't let the lack of reviews stop you for now.

This charming unit is on my home property, so lovingly cared for. It's comfortable, clean and the perfect place for a couple's hideaway in wine country or someone needing a home away from home. Patio is inviting and neighbors are friendly.

Living/Dining space with kitchen and all the supplies you might need. Large single bedroom and bathroom.

The patio and garden are a great place to sit and enjoy a glass of wine while watching friendly neighbors out walking their dogs. Recently added a couple of Adirondack chairs and a table with an umbrella in the garden.

A local favorite breakfast cafe is just a 30-second walk away, or if you prefer just coffee in the morning, the unit has a Keurig coffee maker with a selection of coffees provided. If you enjoy a walk in the morning to get coffee and pastries, another local favorite, Barking Dog Roasters, is just a 2 minute walk.

For the ultimate in relaxation, the Spa at the Sonoma Mission Inn Fairmont Hotel is also just a 2 minute walk. A variety of restaurants and small markets are also within walking distance.

Peaceful, spacious gem

This place is so spacious and welcoming! It was much larger than the photos show and it’s sparkling clean. It has everything a guest could need for a long trip. My stay was very peaceful. The bed was unbelievably comfortable and the black-out curtains were perfect for blocking out the morning light. The yard and house are so beautiful as well. Parking was easy every night. I enjoyed my stay so much and am very grateful for your hospitality. Thank you!

Lovely space in a great location with a nice yard for outdoor eating.

The apartment is clean, comfortable, and spacious, with everything you need for making your own meals, such as full size fridge, microwave, oven and stove. Just be careful about parking under the tree outside your entry gate - a large branch fell from the tree and scratched up my car. I would stay here again!

Comfortable and convenient

I enjoyed my stay as it provided an easy transition for a permanent move from Malibu to Sonoma. Very spacious and comfortable bedroom and bathroom. The apartment is fully equipped with all that one needs for a long stay. Nice garden. Christine was a gracious hostess and assisted with mail delivery. Thank you very much.

Nice place and location, deposit refund too slow

Well appointed place and quiet neighborhood. 10am checkout is too early especially considering the region. $1500 damage deposit is excessive and 17 days after checkout still not refunded. Owner was responsive and sent great details before check in. Will consider increasing rating dependant upon refund outcome.

Perfect home base for a weekend in Sonoma

We had a wonderful stay at Christine's rental! It was clean, spacious, had all the needed amenities, and then some! There are so many eateries and shopping options within minutes. We definitely recommend it!

Quiet, relaxing spot in Sonoma

This was the perfect place for our week long stay in Sonoma. For the two of us, there was plenty of room and everything was well maintained. It is walking distance to a nice breakfast place, and less than a 10 minute drive to the Plaza. The patio area was a perfect place to unwind at the end of the day. We would stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Christine

After living in San Francisco for 15 years I wanted the quieter, slower-paced life of wine country! It has lived up to all my expectations and now I am happy to have the opportunity to share it with visitors to the area. I live on the property (the rental is an in-law unit to the house), so I take pride in caring for the property. After many years in the software business I decided to shift careers and am now a Certified Specialist of Wine and work at a local winery. I also do vineyard tours on horseback! I've traveled all over the world and am now very happy to call Sonoma home--which is like being on a permanent vacation!

Why they chose this property

I settled in Sonoma because I wanted to live the "wine-country" life and it has been great. I purchased this property after living in the area for a while. I loved the house as soon as I saw it because it met all my needs, plus had an in-law unit. The neighborhood is wonderful with a very nice mix of neighbors from different backgrounds who are all really friendly and always up for a chat when out walking.

What makes this property unique

There is a patio in the garden with a table, umbrella and chairs, which are perfect for relaxing with a glass of wine or for dining outside. You can cook in after shopping at some of the markets within walking distance or driving to larger stores in the area or you can select from restaurants within walking distance with several options for take out food or fine dining. A breakfast and lunch place and a coffee house are just a block away.
