About this property

4 BR/4 BA Vineyard Retreat - Solar Heated Pool, Spa, Views

Discover "Mona," a hidden gem named when our daughter innocently mispronunciationed 'Sonoma'. This four-bedroom retreat is, accompanied by a charming one-bedroom guest house and lies in the heart of Healdsburg's iconic Dry Creek Valley.
Picture this: A serene acre of pure escapism, enveloped by the poetic tapestry of Dry Creek vineyards. Not just a spectator to this breathtaking panorama, Mona boasts its very own private vineyard, adding to its exclusive allure. Imagine waking up to endless vistas of lavender blooms, majestic mountains, and acres of vines dancing with the breeze.

Upon arrival, be welcomed by a sprawling front porch, where four timeless rocking chairs invite you to bask in the mesmerizing sunsets. Retreat to the tranquil backyard, complete with a shaded patio to escape the heat, a grill for culinary adventures, and a luxurious hot tub. Dive into our solar-heated pool, thoughtfully designed with dual shallow ends with stadium-style stairs allowing for extended in-pool seating. Lounge under the walnut tree or find respite under the covered poolside porch, equipped with extra loungers.

Inside the house, sunlight streams through the row of French doors illuminating the expanse from the gourmet kitchen to the cozy living area and the master suite. Slumber in luxury with high-end linens gracing every bed, from the regal queen in the master (with its romantic gas fireplace) to the uniquely designed second bedroom with twin built-in bunk beds, a queen bed, and a trundle, and a supremely comfortable pull-out couch in the third bedroom. Each bedroom has its own full bath.

The guest house, a haven in itself, flaunts a spacious queen bedroom and a private bath. French doors open to a shaded porch with more rocking chairs — a perfect nook for morning coffee or twilight musings.

Stay connected and entertained with two state-of-the-art Smart TVs, lightning-fast internet, and a Sonos system ready for your playlist. On chillier evenings, bask in the warmth of our grand wood-burning fireplace, fully stocked to keep the cold at bay. For those with a culinary flair, our kitchen is your canvas. Outfitted with a 6-burner stove, double oven, and an assortment of top-notch utensils, showcase your gastronomic masterpieces on a dining table that accommodates 10-12 guests.

Mona is not just a house; it's an experience. Besides the vines, you'll find fragrant roses, fruitful apple and peach trees, and ageless walnuts and olives, making every moment here seem like a page from a fairy tale.

Second year in a row
My family loves this property! The location is nice and quiet but central to everything. There is plenty of very comfortable space to house two families and a grandparent. We love the indoor/ outdoor flexibility and flow…. It is perfect for a relaxing weekend. The house has everything you need for cooking and plenty of linens and towels. We will be rebooking this for many years to come.

Truly wonderful stay!
What a spectacular place! This home is perfectly located to get to downtown Healdsburg and the local wineries. The pool, hot tub, and grounds were perfectly maintained and we enjoyed every minute of our stay. The beds were comfy and the home and casita were clean and well appointed with everything we needed. When a wildfire warning came up, the hosts were quick to communicate with us and gave us helpful safety information. Can't wait to go back!

We were all in the pool and spa for hours. We shared a special catered 50th anniversary dinner with our family & enjoyed a magnificent sunset over the vineyards. It was a very special weekend for all of us. The owners’’ assistants were very helpful, & everyone far exceeded our expectations.

Spacious and warm!
My daughter has always dreamed of having her bachelorette party in the wine country. This couldn’t have been a more perfect setting! Besides being a beautiful property it was the perfect location. We could walk to Dry Creek General Store for delicious food and drink, and any snacks or deli selections. Although we didn’t use the pool as we were there in November, the hot tub was wonderful! The spacious kitchen was so helpful and the outdoor space was beautiful! Bonus points for the adorable guest house in the back! Plenty of room for all of us. I highly recommend this Vineyard Retreat!

Healdsburg Gem
We used to live in Healdsburg and came back to enjoy some time with family. "Mona" was perfect for our visit. The home has everything you need to relax and be comfortable. The weather was rainy and the wood fireplace was wonderful during a fall weekend. We didn't get to enjoy the outside because it was raining but looks like that would have been very relaxing. It is close to Big John's (superb grocery store) and downtown Healdsburg. A memorable weekend was had by all.

Healdsburg Getaway
We had a wonderful stay in Healdsburg! This property had a gorgeous yard with a beautiful pool. We loved the location because it was not in town and so it was quiet and serene out there but still close to town. We celebrated our daughter's 14th birthday there with five of her friends and the house fit all 9 of us very comfortably!

Wonderful Wine Country Estate Getaway
House was very clean and nicely outfitted with all we needed for our stay. The pool and outdoor space was truly lovely and we spent a lot of time just sitting in one of the covered seating areas by the pool or hot-tub. Property manager was very quick to reply to any of my questions in the months prior to checking in. A group of mom friends got away for Mother's Day and it was a magical space to be able to just relax and reconnect. The house and grounds were just perfect and I would say we would be back again for sure!

We enjoyed our stay. Accommodations were great for extended family including young children. Plenty of outdoor space for young children. Kitchen well equipped. Bedroom with bunk beds also has a queen bed and good for parents to stay in the same room with young children. Guest house private and good for another family. Everything clean and wel kept.

We're a family of five based in San Francisco, with cherished homes in Healdsburg, CA, and Nantucket. These properties, which we've shared with guests through VRBO for over two decades, hold a special place in our hearts. Drawing from our extensive hosting experience, we strive to offer our guests the same warmth and comfort we feel, hoping they create memorable moments just as we do during our stays.

Why they chose this property

The sunsets are breathtaking, and the pool feels like a spa retreat. Surrounded by vineyards, it feels like a true escape. We've made great family memories here, and we hope you will too.

What makes this property unique

Nestled in the picturesque heart of Healdsburg's Dry Creek Valley, "Mona" is an exquisite blend of casual elegance and nature's charm. Beyond its tastefully appointed interiors and state-of-the-art amenities, Mona's essence is its profound connection to the the outdoors. Here, the line between indoors and out blurs, as sprawling vineyards seamlessly meld into its private confines, inviting guests to experience vine-to-wine at their doorstep. With its very own vineyard, a tableau of lavender, fruit-bearing trees, and aromatic roses, Mona isn't merely a stay; it's an immersive experience in the lap of nature, infused with the sophistication of modern comforts. The property, with its panoramic views and enchanting aura, is a poetic retreat, making every moment feel like an escape into a timeless, wine-soaked fairy tale.
