Our House exceeded our expectations on all accounts! True to the website photos, it is a beautiful home inside and out. I was there with a group of friends to celebrate a 50th birthday. We have visited wine country as a group for the past 7 years and have stayed in other VRBO properties. This house is our favorite by far! The owners were very attentive and personal from the day we booked through the day we left. Upon arrival, the owner met our group and gave us a very thorough tour and helpful information which allowed us to fully enjoy the house. The large open kitchen and living room space was perfect for us. We enjoy cooking and eating in together and the kitchen is equipped with everything you need. The kitchen leads out onto a beautiful outdoor patio overlooking the pool and hot tub. It is a great space to hang out and enjoy the serene landscape and gardens. Coffee on the patio and an early morning hot tub became a ritual for us. So relaxing! One of the best things about this house, although perfect for a group, is that you can find a nice quiet place if you need some time to yourself. The bedrooms are very comfortable and spacious and provide the right sense of privacy without feeling removed from the group. The guest house is located a few steps from the main house and has its own kitchen which was a nice addition for those mornings when you wanted some fresh brewed coffee but didn't want to walk to the main house in your pajamas. And the location of the house is perfect for wine tasting! It is easy to visit a number of wineries within a few miles of the house. All in all we found the house absolutely fantastic and can't wait to stay there again next year. In fact, I'm not sure we will try to book any other house for our annual visit. We really loved it!

I just spent a weekend at this beautiful home in Healdsburg!! I couldn't have been happier. The grounds are breathtaking and everything was well beyond my expectations. The pictures do not do this place justice! Every detail of the home is thought out. The owners, Jim and Viola, are so welcoming and ensure everything is just right as you start your stay. This is hands down the best vacation home I have stayed in. A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
