About the host
Hosted by Bennett Martin
Our story begins with a deep, lifelong love for the Golden State. As California natives, we have spent decades exploring the rugged coastlines, hidden valleys, and sun-drenched peaks that make this state iconic. But while our roots are firmly planted in California soil, our hearts have always been open to the world.
We have traveled across the globe with our 3 children, from bustling international metropolises to quiet, remote villages. Those journeys taught us a universal truth: the soul of any great travel experience isn't just the destination—it’s the feeling of belonging. We’ve stayed in countless homes along the way, and those experiences shaped our philosophy as hosts. We know that a truly memorable stay is found in the details: the scent of the garden, the quality of the linens, and the warmth of a genuine welcome.
We simply LOVE people. There is a special kind of joy in meeting travelers from different walks of life and play a small role in their journey. Whether you are here for a milestone anniversary, a solo hiking retreat, or a weekend of world-class wine tasting, we are honored to share our slice of Sonoma with you.
Why Sonoma? To us, it is the most beautiful corner of the world. It’s a place where you can spend your morning under the canopy of ancient redwoods and your afternoon strolling the historic, sun-drenched Sonoma Plaza. We created this cottage as a serene hideaway—a place that reflects the natural beauty of our home while providing the "attainable luxury" we always looked for in our own global travels.
As your hosts, our goal is to provide a seamless, restorative escape. We’ve combined our local knowledge with our international perspective to create a sanctuary that feels both high-end and deeply personal. We invite you to stay, breathe the vineyard air, and fall in love with Sonoma just as we have.

Why they chose this property
What drew us to this specific corner of Sonoma is the rare sense of hidden discovery. We chose this neighborhood because it is perfectly tucked away and off the beaten path, offering that elusive "worlds away" feeling while being incredibly close to the vibrant heart of the valley. It is the kind of place where the pace of life naturally slows down the moment you drive through the private gate.
The true crown jewel of our location is the expansive open meadow right in our front yard. For us, nature isn't just a destination you drive to; it’s our daily landscape. Living with this much open space means waking up to golden light hitting the tall grass, watching the local hawks circle overhead, and enjoying a level of quiet that is hard to find so close to the historic Sonoma Plaza.
We often say this neighborhood offers the best of both worlds. You can spend your morning immersed in the "wild" side of Sonoma—exploring the quiet garden or heading just a few minutes down the road to world-class hiking and biking trails—and yet, you’re never more than a short trip from a perfect espresso or a legendary meal.
Nature is truly our thing, and we’ve designed this experience to share that passion with you. Whether you’re sipping wine or mocktail on the patio as the sun sets over the meadow or simply listening to the wind through the trees, you’ll quickly see why we fell in love with this sanctuary. It’s a neighborhood that feels like a well-kept secret, and we can’t wait for you to experience the peace and privacy that define our home.

What makes this property unique
This property is truly unique in the seamless harmony between secluded natural immersion and refined, artisan living. While many destinations claim to offer an escape, few provide a private sanctuary where the "wild" side of Sonoma greets you at your doorstep.
The Meadow & The Garden
The defining feature of our property is the expansive open meadow right in our front yard. It provides a rare sense of openness and tranquility that is virtually impossible to find so close to the historic Sonoma Plaza. Also, your private garden oasis, a curated outdoor room designed for stillness, perfect for practicing morning meditation or enjoying an alfresco dinner under the stars, these spaces ensure you are always connected to the earth.
Artisan Craftsmanship
We believe that a property’s soul lies in its details. Unlike cookie-cutter rentals, our cottage features bespoke elements: the hardwood bedframe handcrafted and sold by a local Sonoma artisan. We’ve prioritized "attainable luxury" in every detail.
A Wellness-First Approach
We’ve designed this stay for the "active relaxer." This property is unique in its commitment to your physical and mental well-being:
The Explorer’s Gateway: We are a literal jumping-off point for the region’s premier hiking and biking trails.
The Yoga Connection: We offer access to a private yoga studio on property, bridging the gap between a standard vacation rental and a dedicated wellness retreat.
The "Close-In" Hideaway
Perhaps the most unique paradox of our cottage is its location. It is tucked away and off the beaten path, offering a level of privacy that suggests a remote forest retreat. Yet, you are a mere five minutes from the Sonoma Plaza. Spend your afternoon enjoying world-class culinary experiences and boutiques, then retreat within minutes to a silence so profound you’ll feel worlds away from civilization.
This is more than just a place to stay—it is a thoughtfully curated nature escape built by travelers, for travelers.
