Jacqui’s retreat “cottage” was perfect for my 9 night local getaway. Immaculate, like-new, well stocked with everything I needed and more, incredibly comfy bed (I slept better than at home!), beautiful views of Annadel State Park from the kitchen window and deck. Great location, too!

Thank you Janet for this lovely review. I’m so happy that you enjoyed your stay in my cozy retreat.
We loved everything about our stay at WCR! Check in was easy, the apartment was so clean and perfectly appointed, the neighborhood was safe, and check out was a breeze. The location was perfect for splitting our time between Sonoma and Napa. Thank you, Jacqui, for having us as guests!
My wife and I stayed at this property and had a wonderful experience. The location was centrally located between Sonoma and Santa Rosa. The accommodations were perfect. Clean, spacious and stocked with everything imaginable. Would highly recommend for those traveling in this area.

The guest unit was the perfect place to stay for my work trip. It was clean, well stocked, and maintained the perfect level of privacy. It is located near wonderful restaurants, as well as all grocery stores, shopping, and all the beautiful wineries in Sonoma Valley.
This is a very well-run vacation rental. Everything was clean and well-stocked. The owner was very easy to communicate with, and the outdoor deck is really nice. Highly recommended.

About the host
Hosted by Jacqui Smail
Jacqui was born and raised in East Lothian Scotland. She had a very successful career in the travel and tourism industry in Edinburgh for twenty five years! In 2009, Jacqui, her husband Andrew and their two sons were given the opportunity to move to Sonoma County and the rest was history!
The whole family fell in love with this stunningly beautiful part of California and wanted to share it's beauty with their nearest and dearest. When choosing their new home, they decided to buy a property that would allow for just that. Nestled in the beautiful Skyhawk area is their home with Wine Country Retreat, right on the property.
Why they chose this property
The moment I saw this property, I knew it was the one for us. It was love at first sight. I never tire of the location, the mountain views, or the bright airy feel. The choice of food and wine options are endless. We love how close it is to Annadel Park and Spring Lake where we enjoy walking.
What makes this property unique
The location of Wine Country Retreat is superb. The open views are quite stunning and the host is so friendly and welcoming. The property is spotlessly clean and bright. The bed linens and towels are of superior quality and the space is bright, comfortable, clean and private.
