Wine Country Retreat with Panoramic Views-5 min from downtown Healdsburg

Wake up to sweeping vineyard vistas and the tranquility of California wine country. This private retreat offers the perfect blend of serenity and convenience — just a short drive to Healdsburg Plaza, where world-class tasting rooms, farm-to-table dining, and boutique shops await.

This is the Bliss House – Your Healdsburg Wine Country Escape Perched high above the stunning Dry Creek Valley, Bliss House is a peaceful, beautifully remodeled retreat just 1.5 miles from downtown Healdsburg. Surrounded by 80 acres of vineyards, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers panoramic 180° views, a gourmet kitchen, and a 100-foot deck perfect for sipping wine while watching the sunset.

Some of the highlights:

Panoramic Views: Expansive windows and a private deck showcase rolling vineyards and breathtaking sunsets.

Spacious Comfort: Open-concept living with vaulted ceilings, abundant natural light, and cozy furnishings.

Chef’s Kitchen: Fully equipped for preparing wine-paired meals, with modern appliances and ample counter space.

Outdoor Living: Dine al fresco on the patio or sip morning coffee surrounded by nature.

Convenience: Washer/dryer, Wi-Fi, and easy parking make longer stays effortless.

– Prefer to grill? Fire up the BBQ on the deck while enjoying the view
– Not in the mood to cook? Downtown Healdsburg is just 1.5 miles away—perfect for takeout or a quick bite


Unmatched Views & Outdoor Living
The 100-foot deck is the heart of the home:
– Dine al fresco at the outdoor table for 6
– Watch hot air balloons rise in the morning or steam plumes from The Geysers in the distance
– Spot birds with binoculars or simply relax with a book and a glass of wine


Comfortable Bedrooms

– Bedroom 2 & 3: Queen beds, located on the quiet back side of the house
Easy Access & Parking

– September–October: Warm and dry with fewer foggy mornings
– Winter: Rain brings lush beauty, but expect sunny breaks too
– Tip: Bring layers—temperatures can swing 30–40°F in a day

About the host

Hosted by Peter Carroll

Host profile image
Peter is the 3rd generation to work this property. Irv originally bought the land below and behind the house in the 1930's. Peter's mother, Andie grew up in the house down the hill from the current house. Irv was a farmer in the area where he grew crops and raised cattle and sheep. Andie was a longtime school teacher in the bay area.

Currently, Peter is managing the rental property and wishes he had more time to spend there!

Why they chose this property

The property was inherited from my Mom, Andie's, father and was part of the property where Andie was raised and grew up. The view is amazing, the people are nice and the town is small and has a certain charm. Its location is perfect as you get to live in the country, but only be 5 minutes from downtown Healdsburg.

What makes this property unique

Incredible views of the valley from the deck. Quiet location a very short drive to downtown.
