There were five of us that stayed over Memorial Day weekend. Comfortable beds and space throughout the house. Enjoyed using the hot tub and the views. Would love to stay here again.
Perfect getaway for husband/wife and daughter/son-in-law; secluded on a ridge but close enough to both Napa and Sonoma; enjoyed sitting on the balcony watching the wildlife in the morning with a cup of coffee (and pastries from a nearby bakery) and by the pool in the early-evening after a long day of wine tasting; owner was very responsive and easy to work with.
We couldn’t have enjoyed the house more. Wonderfully well-manicured grounds, beautiful sweeping views, and a house that was made for relaxing. Would absolutely stay again next time we’re in the Napa are.
This property is beyond amazing. The mountainous views were beautiful. The house literally had everything you needed. I will definitely return to this spot.
We were a group of girls from central Illinois who most had never been to California before. Wine country was wondering and relaxing just like the property was. Easy to get into, pool, and view were just spectacular!! Thank you for a great stay!
What a great hidden spot! The home was clean, stylish and had everything we needed. The views were unmatched. Geoff was responsive and helpful. Would definitely come back to this little retreat again.
We picked this spot due to the amazing view and location between Napa and Sonoma. The house did not disappoint! Views are stunning and the house is great with outdoor showers, the pool, hot tub, and ample room for multiple people. We had a great time and would not hesitate to stay again. Host was also super communicative and provide plenty of information about the house and area. Perfect place to enjoy all Napa has to offer!
Wonderful stay with my family of five. The pool and house have wonderful views which make for memorable sunsets. The house also has wonderful design work inside and also the landscaping which my wife and I admired. I’m a big fan if Trinity road and the area for food and cycling (mtb is nearby and road is right outside the door). We will stay again.
My husband and I, along with my cousin and his wife stayed at this property for 4 nights. The home was extremely clean, the views were spectacular, and the homeowner was very easy to work with and friendly. We had a blast and we would go back again for sure. Thank you so much for having us!

What a wonderful experience. Everything was as beautiful as it presented online. The views are spectacular and the pool was so picturesque. Will definitely put this place on our list when we return to Wine Country.
Cheers,

Long weekend getaway with the kids before school started. What a place and what a view! We swam and watched the sunset from the pool over the Sonoma valley. Surreal. 10 min drive to glen Ellen and 15-20min to Sonoma. Paradise for a serious cyclist as well.
This property is absolutely fantastic. Just North of Sonoma outside Glen Ellen. Great grocery store in Glen Ellen and great coffee every morning in Kenwood. This was our first time bringing the kids and they loved the pool and star watching every night. You can see the fog rolling in from the o ran almost every morning and it burns off by 9a.m. Also, Napa is just on the other side of the mountain. Geoff is a great host and very responsive. I would recommend this house to everyone and we will be back. Thank you.
This place is perfect! Close to Sonoma wineries AND close to Napa wineries. You can place music everywhere in the house and outside. Top of the line appliances and bedding. Everything is easy to use. Beautiful inside and out. Pool and hottub. Great grill. Just perfect for anything you need.
We travel extensively and rent homes all over the world. We loved this for our family of 5 (3 adult children), and our kids said it was the greatest home we’ve rented as a family. Perfectly laid out, beautiful pool, well located close to everything yet remote enough to have plenty of privacy. And the views - wow. Geoffrey was a great host. Very responsive. The place was very well decorated and had everything we needed. We hired a chef one night and she was very impressed with everything the kitchen has to offer. I'd highly recommend.
Our family of 7 adults had the most wonderful time spending 10 days at this VRBO. I wish I could give it more stars!! We actually moved all our dinner reservations to earlier just so we could enjoy the most spectacular sunsets as a family back at the house every night.The house is extremely well equipped with detailed and easy to follow instructions for some of the high tech features like the automatic shades. The kitchen is particularly well stocked. The check in process was easy and communication with our host was great! The only call out is that the road the house is off of (Trinity) gains some decent elevation (hence amazing views) and can be quite curvy at times. We rented a Ford Expedition and were naturals by day 2! Any daily essential, world class dining, or range of commercial and direct to consumer vineyard options is a 15-30 minute drive with great access to the Oakville/Rutherford area on the Napa side.I hope you enjoy your stay here as much as we did!
If you’re looking for a place that is close to Napa and Sonoma valleys where you can enjoy the beauty and tranquility of nature, this is it. Geoffrey has curated a house full of artistic, eclectic and (above all) comfortable decor, The remote location, just 15 minutes from Oakville grocery, feels like you’re hours away from the hustle and bustle of tourism. The sunset. Wow. The beauty of a star filled night enjoyed from a giant and perfect hot tub. 5 stars. We’ll be back I hope. Thank you!
We were a group of four friends who’ve traveled the world; this property ranks as a top favorite for all of us. From the thoughtfully and comfortably appointed furniture, to the interesting and beautiful art, to the astonishing views at all times of day and night, this property is as close to heaven as I could dream.
Geoff was a responsive and helpful host. He’s thought of everything: beautiful landscaping drenched in lavender, games to keep everyone entertained, and everything you’d need in a kitchen to create a memorable meal.
The mountain road needed to access the house was a bit nerve-racking, but even a nervous rider would find the effort well-rewarded and worthwhile. I highly recommend this property: I’ll be dreaming about it for a long while.
Stayed for 3 nights with my wife for our anniversary trip to wine country. The house was wonderful. Probably too large for just two people, but we splurged for the beautiful views, pool/hot tub, and privacy. The house was clean, had all the ameneties, and the views did not disappoint. There was a red warning for high winds during our stay. The owner made us aware of this & what it meant. He was very communicative and super helpful in explaining everything. The house had backup systems and we had no issues at all. We were able to get to wineries and restaurants in Sonoma, Napa, and other surrounding areas easily. I would recommend this propery to any group looking for a private home with nice ameneties in wine country.
Awesome house with an awesome pool and stunning view
We were 3 couples visiting Napa and Sonoma for wine tasting. This location was conveniently located halfway up the valley and has great access to both wineries. It’s a windy road to get to the house but the views and hot tub are well worth it. And the wood burning fireplace was 👍👍
