About this property

Windhaven Cottage Overlooking the Carneros Vineyards

Windhaven Cottage sits atop knoll, on 5 acres of land, overlooking the eastern hillsides and the vineyards of the Carneros wine region. Windhaven Cottage is an excellent stay for a couple to celebrate an anniversary, spend a honeymoon or just get away. Our home is also on the property. (TOT#408)

Major wineries are within a 5 to 10-minute drive. (Viansa, Cline, Gundlach Bundschu, Buena Vista, Sebastiani, Ravenswood just to name a few.)

The deck off the back of the cottage offers complete privacy and a wonderful place to enjoy morning coffee with the rising eastern sun, relax with afternoon tea, or celebrate the day with evening wine and cheese. The views are marvelous over the top of the oaks and vineyards. On cool evenings relax by the fire and enjoy music, snuggle up, view a movie or sit back with a good book.

Two Morgan horses graze in our pastures. See them on our website

The area is safe and quiet for evening or morning walks. Walk a mile or take on four.

Remember to check with us even if the calendar is full. Cancellations occur or have us put you on a waiting list.

Cottage in the country with beautiful views.
The cottage exceeded our expectations. Sitting on the balcony in the evening, glass of wine in hand, watching the sunset on the hills over the vineyard. This was topped off with a dip in the perfectly heated spa. Bob and Wendy were perfect hosts and gave us a very warm welcome. Their property is a perfect, tranquil hideaway to spend a few days, in the Sonoma wine region.

Cozy Stay In Beautiful Wine Country
We absolutely loved Windhaven Cottage! Comfy and cozy with a lovely view from the back deck. We enjoyed the fireplace and hot tub, and the location was perfect for visiting wineries in Sonoma and Napa. Check in was perfect as the owner met us there and explained everything. A wonderful stay!
