Incredible stay

The views overlooking the valley were phenomenal. We enjoyed the solitude but also being 5 minutes away from the action. Plenty of space for our group of 4, but 6 would definitely fit comfortably. Lastly the beds were extremely comfortable, which is not often the case in a rental. Topper and crew were a pleasure to work with and were extremely accommodating. We will be back!

Great House for Wine country trip

We loved staying at Trish and Johns place! We booked because of the pickleball court for something extra for us to do, and loved it! The views are amazing, and the pool and patio were great to hang by. Would stay here again if we come back to Sonoma! The house was clean and had the basic necessities (paper towels, hand soap and toilet paper) however they do not provide any shower supplies (shampoo, body soap etc) so make sure to bring some with you!

A beautiful home combined with a super cozy vibe. John was excellent at consistent communication, and Trish and Topper are wonderful people and generous hosts, always open to any thoughts or suggestions for the property. Our friends flew in all the way from Luxembourg and had nothing but a warm and positive experience. Thank you all for a fantastic weekend!

Spectacular location, well-equipped, comfortable home

Lovely wine country visit. Nice place to “come home to” after a day of exploration. Bedroom layout (3rd bedroom access is through master suite, but there is outside door access) is a bit quirky, but worked for our family. Owner instructions were spot-on, access to gate/property very clear.

What a relaxing home!

My family stayed here for a handful of days over the summer, and the home truly contributed to a wonderful vacation. The inside of the home is sufficient, and the outside takes it up a notch. The front porch, patio, and swimming area had the most beautiful breeze and views that we never got tired of (it was a vacation in and of itself). The close proximity to Sonoma (5 minutes) and Carneros (10 minutes) was convenient, and Napa was only a 25 minute drive away. We would definitely stay here again.

Wine country with adult children

We could not have chosen a better property to meet our oldest two children for an amazing visit to Sonoma and Napa. The location was perfect, 7-10 minutes from quaint downtown Sonoma, and proximal to numerous wineries and vineyards. Our gracious hosts reserved a pickle ball court right in the neighborhood so we could start our morning out with a bit of exercise each day. The property feels very private, has beautiful views and a relaxing back yard with pool, hot tub, and grill. The owners are extremely communicative and helpful and gave a ton of great recommendations. This is a perfect option for any group of 6 to book when visiting the CA wine country.

Beautiful home with views about 10 minute drive from Sonoma Square

Trish, John and Topper were great hosts. The house was exactly as described. Comfortable beds and beautiful grounds. Heated pool and hot tub were great. Pickleball is just down the road, with a nice shady area to relax outside an airstream trailer with plenty or racquets and balls. We never encountered anyone else using the courts, but it seems to be a community court for the 8-10 houses in the street. Only 10 minutes to great restaurants and wine tastings but feels off the beaten path. Thanks so much for sharing your home!

Our stay at beautiful High Home

We had a wonderful stay at "High Home" Our traveling group included two parents and four young adult "kids". The sleeping opportunities were perfect for our couples vs singles and the various spaces on site were perfect for privacy and togetherness. The outside spaces were great, loved the screened in porch and fantastic views. The pickleball arrangement was somewhat confusing with regard to how to know when it was okay to use - e.g. ten minutes in on one of the days, we needed to leave because others were signed up to use the court. When we were able to play, though, the pickleball was a highlight of the stay! All in all, a wonderful time and we would recommend to others and would return for a repeat!

Peaceful Views & Friendly Hosts

We really enjoyed our stay at the home - the views were amazing, and we spent most of our time outdoors on the extensive patio because we loved dining al fresco. The house is also sprawling and has a lot of room. The kitchen wasn't fully stocked for cooking needs as it was missing things like baking pans for the oven, however, the hosts were very communicative and extremely accommodating, letting us borrow items from their own kitchen to cook with for our Thanksgiving dinner. The only negative aspect was we found the kitchen to be dirty (fridge, dishwasher, utensils, etc.). Aside from this, we really enjoyed our stay overall! Thank you for having us!

Private pool!

My family of 4 adults loved our stay. Each of the 3 bedrooms has their own sliding door out to the pool/back yard area. The outdoor dining table had a moveable shade roof overtop. The pool was clean. The views are gorgeous, you can even watch the sunset from the pool. The backyard is so quiet and private, just you and nature. The pickleball court was pristine with its own great view. The hosts were friendly and responsive. The living room area was comfortable and spacious. The kitchen is very bare as far as pantry items, which they say in their listing. There is salt and pepper but otherwise plan to bring your own olive oil, etc if you're cooking. Good kitchen pans and clean fancy gas grill outside, easy to use. Overall made for a really nice vacation.

Pickleball, views and peace!

We can’t say enough about our stay at this property. The house is clean and comfortable with nice appropriate artwork, and pretty decorating touches. Topper was easy to communicate with and very friendly. We enjoyed the location so much. Just a short drive down the hill to the plaza. We used the pool and hot tub. We cooked one night. If you are going to need plastic wrap or foil, make sure to pack it. They have enough glasses, plates and utensils. Also pack shampoo. Other than that, the house is great! We used the pickleball court every day and one day we used it twice. Our group loved it so much, we want to repeat the trip next year! Thank you Trish and Topper for a fantastic 4days. Much appreciated.

Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy
We certainly want to give an honest review. This property had positives and things to consider: Pros: Views were stunning! High Home is a peaceful, quiet, charming getaway in the hills of Sonoma. The managers of the property were responsive to needs and remedied issues- such as the hot tub needing tending to. The owner has a terrific personal masseuse, Anne, who does home services. It was stocked with plenty of towels, blankets, paper goods, and a full kitchen. The bidet toilets were a luxury! The beds and pillows were so comfortable. The cozy fireplace and terrific screened in patio were wonderful.Before Booking: It’s called “High Home” for a reason! Navigating tight, twisting unlit roads was a problem. Beware that some Uber/Lyft drivers or a taxi service are not keen on driving through the hills. Safeway grocery will not deliver to the home. Layout: There are 3 bedrooms & 3 full baths. Only one is an “en suite”. To get from the back of the house to the front, guests must either walk outside OR walk through the primary, en suite master bedroom/bath. Communication: Professionalism matters! In an exchange of texts, the owner referred to us “a nightmare”. We requested a face-to-face meeting to address it but was turned down.That is unfortunate!

Family vacation

The property and view are very nice. My family and I had a relaxing 5 days there. However, there were some cleaning issues, I spent the first hour wiping the kitchen cabinets and knobs and frig. Also I had to clean the toilet in the far bathroom, which was obviously dirty and wipe down surfaces in the bedroom. In addition, the pillows in the last bedroom were old stained and the pillow cases were dirty. I found live moths living underneath one of the pillows. I brought it to someone's attention and within 2 hours I had new pillows and pillow cases. Other reviews stated that the kitchen is not well equiped, which is true. The cookwear was very inferior. Old PFAS stick resistant pots and pans were our only obtion. Except for one stainless steel pot. Spending 7,000 dollars for 5 days, I expected better. Cleanliness, good basic kitchen items and decent pillows should be without question, standard. Especially for this price.

Peaceful Escape in the hills

Beautiful, clean house with stunning views. It felt like our own oasis in Sonoma! We had 5 women (friends since high school) and it was perfect. 4 beds (1 was a king so it was shared), 3 bathrooms with showers, and everything else we needed from a kitchen perspective. I would recommend renting a car though. Although it is just 10 min from Sonoma Plaza, the neighborhood seems a bit remote and taxis and uber/lyft usually took about 40 minutes to arrive. It would be a very long walk. Next time we would rent a car. Also, the bedroom with 2 doubles and the 3rd bathroom are in a separate wing with the only indoor access being through the master bathroom. This was fine for us because we know each other so well but it did cut down on use of the master toilet because it was right at the doorway between the 2 halves of the house. Luckily, it is California and you could access the main house from the guest wing via the outdoor patio, if needed. This house was great for us and would be perfect for a family. The owners were very accommodating and helpful. We would rent here again.
