About this property

Private Sonoma Country Cottage

Quail Run is named after the families of quail whose habitat we share. It is a unique property that has been enjoyed by our family for 60 years. The recently renovated cottage has a great room with living area, kitchen and dining, and a bedroom that opens up to a private patio with hot tub. The great room opens up to a grape vine covered arbor and patio that transitions into a large lawn. Beyond the lawn is our orchard and past the orchard is the Freyer Creek bike path that leads to downtown Sonoma. The cottage is the only house on the two acre property.

Great cottage in fantastic location
Wonderful property, would definitely stay again. Very easy walk into Sonoma plaza, nice pathway behind house. Outdoor green space is amazing! Loved the hot tub. Hosts were very friendly and responsive, and provided a very helpful “things to do” for local winery, restaurant, and activities recommendations. Would definitely recommend Repris winery and the in town hike they suggested, both fantastic! So many things to do on the plaza from cheese shops to chocolate to wine tastings, would definitely recommend a VRBO location like this close to the square to take advantage of all the things nearby.

Quiet, cozy home on the outskirts of Sonoma
We came to Sonoma for 5 days and stayed in this cute little home on 2 acres. It felt secluded/private which was exactly what we were looking for. The hot tub and wood stove were nice bonuses after a long day of drinking wine! The only bummer was that we didn't have the deer and vultures come visit (see someone else's previous review)! We would stay here again.

Sonoma Stay
The property in Sonoma is very welcoming. We booked this particular house because of the quiet area and we could bring out dog. The description did not include the animals that lived on the property. There were deer on the first evening and the following evenings. We were surprised to find a vulture staring at us and flying above the yard. There was also some type of dead animal in the brush in the front that the vulture was hoarding. We tried to sit in the backyard, but the vulture kept flying over us as our dog was outside with us. Then there were the neighbors roofing one of their buildings started hammering and had their music on starting at 7 am and finishing at noon.Given the animals, including a dead animal I will not be returning.

Shangri-La in Sonoma
We came to Sonoma for a celebration of life so this was the perfect place to unwind and relax. Our daughter and granddaughters live a couple of blocks away and this gave us an opportunity for extra family time. The cottage was clean and well supplied but the beautiful lot and yard was the best. Graham the owner was gracious and helpful. We would definitely return here for another visit.

Absolutely Perfect!
My husband and I have just spent 3 weeks in the Quail Run Cottage. It was the best VRBO property we have ever stayed in and the best VRBO experience we have ever had. The cottage was even nicer than it looked in the photos. It was the perfect size for the two of us. It was extremely clean and had all the amenities we needed. And Susan and Graham were so kind, responsive and welcoming. We loved our stay! Thank you!!

Beautiful cottage in Sonoma!
Property was only a mile or so from Sonoma square but yet so secluded and quiet. Best of both worlds. Close to everything but sitting on 2 acres of a quiet peaceful lot. Fruit trees everywhere! There were deer snacking on all the fruit and we were able to sit there and watch. So gorgeous! You can walk or bike to the plaza via the beautiful path behind the home.

Great cottage centrally located
We booked the cottage for our anniversary trip with our dog. The location was perfect, the cottage was cozy and comfortable, and it was well-stocked with everything we needed. We enjoyed the beautiful property and the cottage was a perfect size for our family. We really liked the easy access to the bike trail to take daily walks and the access to various wineries and eateries. Thanks Graham and Susan for a wonderful place to stay! We will definitely stay here again!

Perfect for a couple
We stayed here for our 25th anniversary. The location is great. The home is perfect for two people. Bed was comfy and we loved sitting under the lights on the back patio after a day or 3 of wine tasting. Communication was great. We would stay again.
