The house is beautiful and a perfect getaway for a trip to the Napa/Sonoma area. The views are breathtaking as well. A peaceful retreat in wine country. The house was also well stocked with everything we could need and the best customer service of any VRBO I’ve stayed at before. We will definitely be coming back. Thank you.

My family, ranging in age from 24-78, stayed here for a weekend celebrating a milestone birthday. The house and property exceed our expectations. The location was good, about 5 minutes from Beniziger Winery and 20 minutes from the restaurants in Sonoma.The view was gorgeous, the place was immaculate, and directions for check in and everything else was clear. The pool was beautiful and clean and the view, particularly of the sunset, was amazing. It's definitely the place to stay if in the area!

Despite the super windy road to get to the location (caution if you have been out wine tasting all day!) this place was beautiful! Additionally there was so much to do from the pool to the karaoke to using rhe gorgeous kitchen and grill. Owners were super communicative and kind. Would definitely recommend to anyone

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at this VRBO! The house was stunning—spacious, impeccably clean, and stocked with everything we could possibly need. The pool was a dream, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. The location couldn’t have been better—close to incredible wineries, top-notch restaurants, and all that Napa/Sonoma has to offer. The hosts were truly exceptional! Their communication was quick and clear, and they went above and beyond to ensure we had a seamless experience. Friendly, thoughtful, and detail-oriented, they made our stay even more special. Without a doubt, when we return to Napa/Sonoma, this will be our go-to place to stay! Highly recommend to anyone looking for the perfect getaway!

My husband, adult daughters, significant others and cousins all met up for a couple of days in wine country. This location was so awesome that we actually had to drag each other out to do things. Both nights we just parked on the back patio for the 3 hour sunset show!! After darkness and star gazing we used the game room for some ping pong tournaments. Beautiful space (cooked in both nights and for breakfast). Beautiful drive over to NAPA for wine-tasting (we went to the Balck Stallion Estate and had Eric as our guide- fantastic)! Also roamed around the Jack London State Park (also fantastic). Thank you for a piece of heaven!!!

Thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed review! We're absolutely thrilled to hear that you and your family had such a memorable time together at our property. It sounds like you made the most of everything—from sunsets on the patio to game nights and wine tasting adventures. We’re especially glad the space provided the perfect setting for connection and relaxation. We’d love to welcome you back anytime for another piece of heaven!
Ten stars for the wine country views alone…stunningly beautiful. Cozy, yet roomy, updated, home, clean, and bright. Such a lovely outdoor setting for dining, hanging out, as well as a nice-sized and well kept pool. Had six adult women for a family reunion and it was definitely spacious enough. And on top of everything else, you get a hang out room with karaoke (and disco lights if you choose…we did!). A winding drive to get to property, and a bit off the beaten path, (nice!) which is why you get the amazing views. We had an issue outside of anyone’s control and the property management company was responsive and worked with us in a professional way. All around lovely…!
