A cozy cottage just 1 hour from San Francisco by car but a world away in small town ambiance.
Sonoma offers you your choice of outdoor adventures or in-town comforts with a small town feel. Drive 10 minutes to award winning wineries, art museums and galleries, historic sites and museums, parks, sports and nature. Take a 20 minute walk or 10 minute bike ride to the square in Sonoma.
There you will find great restaurants, wine tasting, wonderful boutiques and an old-time town square. Year round, the square is the site of festivals, music, a weekly farmers market or just friendly get-togethers. For a truly relaxing experience, book in at one of Sonoma's world-class spas within walking or driving distance of our house.
The house combines modern comforts - newly remodeled bathrooms and kitchen with the comfortable lived-in feel of a house well-loved. There is a very private Master Suite with a Cal-King bed. A double bed in the front bedroom, and a queen bed in the third bedroom. Guests who sleep here never want to leave.
Outdoors, there are places for those who like the sun and those who like the shade. Have morning coffee on the front porch surrounded by beautiful landscaping. Grill and eat outdoors at a generous dining table under umbrellas. Watch the beautiful sunsets from the back patio, and stay out under the stars and the amazing Sonoma moon.
Everything is provided. Bring yourselves, your friends, and enjoy!!!!

Map & Owner's Profile
Peace and Quiet Walking Distance from Sonoma Square
Year Purchased: 2004
Why the Owner Chose Sonoma
We love the Northern California wine country, and wanted a cottage to escape to when the fog of San Fransisco summers got too much. most summer days, there is a 20 degree difference between San Francisco and Sonoma. We also wanted something we could enjoy with friends, after great days of walking, shopping, and wine tasting.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Outdoor dining is special at our cottage: gas grill on back patio, dining table on arbor covered deck, the moon shows off why this place is called Valley of the Moon. Living on the front porch is also special, reading on the bench, private and very peaceful. This is a place to relax and come home to at the end of a day of exploring, or just to stay and read for a day.
Owner's Map of Sonoma
We enjoy wine and sun and warmth, and chose Sonoma because it was an easy drive from San Francisco. We even enjoy the rain, just put on the fire and listen to music or read.

so quiet and serene

This cottage had everything we needed to really enjoy our time in Sonoma. The inside is very comfy and the gardens are wonderful. the location was perfect to explore this part of California or just sit and watch the world go by. We did have to share our outdoor table with the bees but we so enjoyed the resident humming bird,too. The mattresses could use an upgrade for our older backs but other than that the accomodations were wonderful. It was so great to have the homey touches available, like coffee in the freezer and wonderful towels in the bathrooms. We would highly recommend staying at this cottage and we hope to return sometime in the future.

We just spent a week at the cottage and the pictures didn't do it justice. It's more spacious that you perceive from the pictures and the deck and yards look like they should be n Subset Magazine. The owner is a pleasure to deal with. Well located with the Sonoma Highway and great shopping a few minutes away by car --- kind of an ambitious walk to the square, but if you have bikes you're there in minutes. Highly recommended.

We all really enjoyed my family's stay at your home. The place was perfect, plenty of room and nicely suited for children. They especially enjoyed the back yard and we especially enjoyed them staying there at night so we all had some down time. It was perfect and they say they will be back each year now so I will definately be keeping this listing.

What a fabulous place this is! Four newly-minted 50 year old women chose your home for our girls' 50th getaway and we could not have chosen better. The property is immaculate inside and out with all the amenities (and more!) that one could ask for. The house was so warm and inviting and comfortable that we ended up spending the majority of our time hanging out there in spite of our previous plans to shop and wine taste etc. We especially appreciated the beautiful gardens, front and back, whether reading the morning paper or enjoying an al fresco meal. We discovered the park that is just two blocks away and enjoyed its many trails for our daily walks. A walking trip to the nearby square yielded a great meal at The Girl and The Fig and cheese and wine tasting without having to drive all over. We look forward to returning to your little slice of Heaven!

Nice girls weekend in Sonoma
Guest: Kellie C.
Date of Stay: 07/08/11
Review Submitted: 07/12/11
This was by far the most affrodable place I could find in Sonoma for 7 ladies. It slept all of us very well. 6 in the beds and 1 on the fold out couch. The hot tub was great after a day of wine tasting and the patio out back was simply gorgeous and so relaxing. Our first night there we just kept it simply with take and bake pizza and wine on the deck. It was perfect outside. The only complaint was we couldn't find the DVD player and we couldn't find the spa chemicals. We were only there for two nights so we didn't want to bother the manager, but if you read this we couldn't find them. Other than that the house was great, nice and quiet, and was much better than we all expected. It was such a bonus to have two bathrooms with 7 ladies. The next time we have a girls weekend in Sonoma we will be sure to stay at this cottage.

We absolutely loved this amazing place...it completely exceeded our expectations! My family and I were in Sonoma for a wedding...we were visiting from both Santa Barbara and Detroit, so it was a perfect getaway for us all. The backyard completely blew us away~breathtaking and so peaceful! We enjoyed all of our meals outside on the beautiful patio. The master bed was one of the most comfortable beds I've ever slept in. All-n-all, we truly did not want to leave. So, there is no question that we will be back~thank you!

Beautiful & Comfortable Home Away From Home!

The pictures of this house don't do it justice! This cottage is adorable and has everything to make your stay comfortable. The backyard is gorgeous and we had to have a BBQ one of our nights just to enjoy it even more. We used the hot tub everynight and you get a great view of the moon. The cottage is close enough to the Sonoma Square but far enough away to be in a quiet neighborhood. We had a great time and can't wait to come back! Just a few recommendations: We loved The Girl & The Fig and El Dorado Kitchen restaurants on the Sonoma square. We did wine tours with Platypus Tours and they were great. We also enjoyed Fume' Bistro in Napa. Our favorite wineries in Sonoma were Loxton (where the owner Chris did our tasting and taught us a lot about wine) and Robledo (just a beautiful place with an even better story!). You will love it here!

For my first attempt at using vacation rentals, I couldn't have picked a better cottage for the three of us to spend time in Sonoma. My husband and adult son were very surprised and pleased with how everything turned out, as was I. The cottage was easy to locate and we were within minutes drive to downtown Sonoma. We really loved the back yard and spent time there each evening. We would definitely stay here again.

I have had the pleasure of visiting this amazing property on many occasions and for different events as well. Weekend getaway, healers retreat, family vacation. All of my experiences are way above expectation. All the amenities of home and that is why this is our home away from home. Who needs a timeshare when this gem is available. Thank you ladies for making such a special place to get away from it all.
