“Great spot close to downtown Santa Rosa! The place was cozy, homey and had a lot of amenities. We appreciated the hot tub and arcade room. Wonderful hideaway but still close to a lot of shops, restaurants and wineries!” - Chirag

Step outside and immerse yourself in nature with direct access to the scenic hiking trails around Lake Ralphine.

“We stayed at their listing with a large group. Each of the couples had their own room. Our group selected this house due to proximity to Sonoma wineries. It took approximately 15 minutes to get to Kunde winery and 10 minutes from our last winery Chateau St. Jean to the property. It was an amazing stay..” - Matt
