                        I was in charge of our family reunion this year, and being from the Bay Area, i choose the Wine Country as my gathering spot. Finding two large homes side by side that could accommodate our extended family AND also handicapped accessible, was a challenge. I hit the jackpot when i found the Black Sterling properties, as the villa comfortably sleeps 12 and the vineyard estate sleeps 14,and the owner kindly allowed us to bring our family dog to our family reunion celebration as well. While January is not considered high season in wine country----we had spectacular blue skies, warm weather, we ALL enjoyed the jacuzzi's----NOT just the kids, and the Friesian horses were an incredible perk----the truly are magnificent creatures imported from holland. If you have a large group ---- you won't find two homes more conveniently located next two each other, easily walking distance to each other, than these two, in the heart of sonoma wine country. We were very comfortable, and my family was thrilled with my choice:) We WILL be baaaaaack!!!

                        Our group of 8 all traveled from the East coast for our first ever wine country experience. We stayed at the Black Sterling Villa as opposed to the Vineyard Estate, which I thought was the right decision. The villa sits on the side of a hillside, overlooking the beautiful countryside and vineyards. It was the perfect setting to start and end our wine tasting days. At night we would make dinner and sit out on the patio eating and drinking wine. Since we went in mid-November the pool was of no use but we were in the hot tub almost every night. For 4 couples this house was a great size, however the loft bedroom upstairs is VERY open with zero privacy, especially with another bedroom being up there. The couple who was going to stay in that bedroom ended up in the basement living room, which worked out just fine. Everyone was comfortable and we had an enjoyable time. Overall, great experience and very reasonably priced. Thank you!!

                        This well appointed Mediterranean home was Ideal for our family reunion. We had family members coming from coast to coast, including the middle, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time in wine country, at the Black Sterling Villa. What a treat it was--not only having vineyard views from most windows, but also we enjoyed watching the owner, Janna, working some of her beautiful black horses---which i guess are imported from somewhere in Europe. Home was everything and MORE than we expected. Cooking in the well supplied kitchen was a breeze, and even my picky aunt was happy. Great room has soaring ceilings an just a great place for all of us to gather. W rented both homes and will be back. susie

The view is phenomenal and then to be able to relax in the hot tub after a long day of wine tasting was perfect! Thank you to Janna for making our vacation unforgettable!

                        Had the BEST time at this amazing home in Sonoma. It is overlooking the Sonoma Valley, close to winery's and has gorgeous horses right on the property. Pool and hot tub were perfect at night to drink a bottle of wine and relax. We had 12 girls in our wedding party and had tons of room, this place is nice! Everything was clean and beautiful. I would HIGHLY recommend this place!

                        Our friends arranged this house for all of us to stay. It was spacious but if you happen to get one of the many pull-out beds (wine cellar) they are not comfortable AT ALL! Full of springs poking you in the back. My wife and I could not even sleep in the same room and 3 weeks later I am still paying the price for trying to sleep on that contraption they call a bed. Others in the house had the same feedback on the beds. Some of the towels had burns and were torn as well. The garbage disposal did not work the entire week and when the handyman finally showed up, he had no tools and used a "dime" in the outlet to verify power. There was power, but after the sparks flew it turned out the next day he had shorted out the circuit in the laundry room so I could not iron my shirt before wine tasting. The black beverage cooler also overheated and did a poor job of keeping our water and drinks cold. The dishwasher stopped working but we were able to get that going again on our own. The upstairs bathroom toilet also stopped working and was down a day and half. They also left the pool cleaner with the long hose etc. in the pool the entire time and we were skeptical about trying to remove it for fear of breaking something. It made it tough for swimming. Overall it was an average place due to functionality and comfort. If I am going to stay in a home some of the most important amenities to have is a reasonable bed to sleep on, nice towels/linens, and functional appliances/bathroom fixtures. These owners appeared to me to just be getting by with as little up keep and maintenance as possible and over sell the property when they say they can sleep 12 people (not comfortably). Overall, this house has somewhat reasonable accomodations for about 6-8 people. Beyond that your guests/friends will be extremely uncomfortable like I was. If you are a group of 6-8 people looking for a spacious house at a reduced price for the area and want to risk the disruption of what we had to tolerate in this house then this is the house for you. At first appearance this is an incredible house, but once we started using it, our opinion of the property went down hill fast!

                        Owner response: We always appreciate input, as we strive to make your stay in wine country as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. The rental agreement for the rental reviewed above listed a total of 10 guests legally staying in the villa. With queen beds in 3 separate bedrooms, a king in the master, ad two queen sleeper sofas in separate sitting rooms, we would NOT recommend using a cold wine cellar with no windows or heat, as a sleeping area for an adult, nor do we recommend it in our listing, as a valid sleeping area. We are SO sorry someone was made to sleep on an uncomfortable couch in the wine cellar and can only suggest that they ask for a refund from the person in charge of their rental. The maximum capacity of this home is 12, NOT including anyone sleeping in the wine cellar! The Bosch dishwasher is 3 yrs old and still under warranty. We DID find a broken wine glass and excess food in the drain on aug 30, removed it, and the dishwasher has worked fine for every other guest in 2011. Because we are on septic, we DO ask guests to use the plunger located in the bathrooms, should they clog the toilet. The plumbing works fine in this luxury home, but if someone clogs the toilet, unlike a hotel, we do ask that you plunge the toilet yourself when renting this country home. The "black beverage cooler" is not a beverage cooler. but a state of the art WINE cooler equipped with the newest thermoelectric hating technology should the ambiant temperature fall below set temperature, which for most wine is 64 degrees. We suggest guests utilize one of the two large refrigerators in the home to cool their beverages and beer, and use the wine cooler for storing wine, as intended. In most rental homes, the pool is serviced weekly, thus a pool sweep is maintained in the pool during the week (hotels have pool service daily, most homes in the country have weekly pool services). The hose for the pool sweep is easily put to the side, if the sweep is in the way when swimming or pool is in use, and we recommend guests ask our on site full time groundskeeper to show them how to automatically open and close the pool cover, and put the pool sweep to the side, during use, if they are unsure on how to operate pool equipment. We DID appreciate this guest suggestions re: linens and towels and have equipped the home with ALL NEW linens, towels, bath mats, sheets, and comforters. Thanks for your suggestions!

                        All i can say is... the photos do NOT do this place justice!!! What a nice luxury home, with views to absolutely DIE for!!! I got married at Cornerstone and we rented both the Black Sterling Villa, and the sister property next door, the Black Sterling Vineyard Estate. We thoroughly enjoyed BOTH properties, annd they were walking distance to each other. My friends and family had a superb time sitting on the various decks and sipping wine, while gazing at the adjoining vineyards. Bonus: watching the baby friesian horses. My bridesmaids even surprised me with a riding lesson one one of the stunning friesian horses!! This was the nicest vacation rental we have ever experienced. We WILL be back!!! I would highly recommend this home to anyone visiting wine country. Lauren

                        Our family of twelve had a wonderful relaxing time at the Villa. The house is very spacious, well appointed and comfortable. The pool, fountains, and grounds were beautiful and very private (kids had a great time feeding the horses!). The location is also excellent - quiet neighborhood very close to hiking, bike trails, 2 incredible parks with lakes, wineries, restaurants, farmers market, etc. We had a fabulous family vacation with this house as our base. This is a wonderful home, in an ideal setting. Our week was delightful, thanks in part to the rental of a very nice home in an ideal location. I would highly recommend the Villa --ideal for a family reunion!

                        We planned a get together with college buddies at Wine Country, and rented the Black Sterling Villa sight unseen off the web. Wow--what a great experience! House was exactly as stated, everything was just as we had seen in the photos. And the owners provided such warm hospitality--we were pleasantly surprised at such prompt answers to our questions...something we have not found with other homes we have rented. Additional bonus : the gorgeous black horses on the property. A group of us took riding lessons on the frisian horses housed in the owner's private stable. It was the highlight of our trip. We will be back. This was the nicest home our group has ever rented. Susan in Ohio

                        Just wanted to say thank you, we had a very enjoyable weekend at your lovely home in sonoma wine country. I must say, i can't imagine why you don't LIVE there, what a nice, well kept gigantic home, with views, views, views..... We especially enjoyed your older horse (i think his name was Sterling?) who roamed the property, greeting newcomers. My daughter is still talking about him.... Thanks again, we will recommend you to anyone wanting a vacation home in Napa/Sonoma
