About this house rental
Shaded by a 100-year-old oak tree, this very special home ‘lives’ on 30 vineyard acres and is off Dry Creek Road, just one mile west of the north end of charming, upscale, historic, Healdsburg in the heart of Sonoma County’s Wine Country. Newly renovated, this 3 bedroom/2 bath, Ranch House with central heat/AC is beautifully landscaped and decorated with European styling, wall paper, draperies, clean Scandinavian lines, and warm wood flooring throughout, and newly landscaped backyard with Sundance Spa.
Enter and enjoy the open flowing floor plan with the living room area to your left and the dining area to the right, and the kitchen just beyond.A decorative fireplace with candelabra, sleeper sofa (full size), 2 leather chairs, and a lovely area rug with coffee table, grace the living room; entertainment is provided by the Sharp LCD HD 26” wide screen TV with a Sony HD DVD player and a Panasonic compact audio system with CD, cassette, and radio.
The dining area with beautiful built-in floor to ceiling cabinets, is a warm, welcoming, and wonderful space for sipping, supping, and good conversation, and the dining table expands to seat 8+, with 2 more spaces at the counter. All new kitchen cabinetry (one is lighted with glass shelves and doors), black granite counter tops and all new GE stainless steel appliances, contribute to a wonderful cooking experience.
Your chef will enjoy using the very efficient ceramic cooktop with oven below and a built-in microwave-exhaust vent combo above; the fridge, dishwasher and large stainless steel double sink complete this very efficient and well designed kitchen..
A short hallway leads to the master suite with a luxurious king bed, wood floors and area rug, vineyard views, and a newly redone ensuite bathroom with a granite topped vanity and large beautifully tiled shower. The second and third bedrooms are also wood floored, one with two double beds and one queen bedroom.
When also using the living room double sleeper sofa, ‘Big Oak’ can accommodate as many as 8 guests, if you do not mind getting cozy with family and/or friends, although ideally suited to smaller gatherings. The lovely second shared bath also has a granite topped vanity and a tastefully tiled large shower to facilitate preparing for your dates!
Beautifully landscaped, the front yard, shaded by the Big Oak, has two lawn areas, abundant plantings & shrubs, and a front porch seating area to watch the world go by. Leading to the 2-car garage, is a large driveway and the backyard is fenced with acres of vineyards just beyond and a back patio with table and chairs, umbrella, and a Wolf propane BBQ for your grilling pleasure (a Weber briquette grill is also available for the ‘kingsford’ purists). Enjoy the Sundance Spa in the newly landscaped backyard.
The Big Oak Vineyard House is very conveniently located and a great ‘home base’ for exploring the diversity of Sonoma County Wine Country. Only minutes away from Healdsburg, the ‘crown jewel’ of our ‘Tuscany’ in northern California, you will need plenty of time for wine tasting, fine dining, shopping, art & antique galleries, and enjoying the Russian River with many more adventures nearby.
In addition to overlooking the beautiful vineyard of West Wines, the West Wines Tasting Room is just next door to the home for an up close and personal wine tasting experience.

Excited to have found a new place to stay in Healdsburg! I’m sometimes a bit nervous about VRBO’s but this one fit the bill very well. It was extremely clean (always a “must” for me), comfortable beds and linens, lots of extra thoughtful details (living room throw blankets, a bag of ice in the freezer, etc.), with a backyard setting that cannot be beat. The property management company responded quickly when one member of our party felt the hot tub filter noise was a bit too loud outside her bedroom window. The only “negative” I’d say was the living room furniture wasn’t very comfortable, but that won’t prevent us from staying here again. Will definitely come back, especially to spend more time relaxing in the backyard overlooking the vines and at the tasting room next door.

We loved the location, the kitchen and the garden. We felt that the sofa bed needed to be replaced and that the inside should be repainted. The house needed some tender care but overall we liked the house.

Ok stay
The house served a purpose for a wedding we were attending. The house needs a little TLC.
We were a party of 6 adults. No seating available
For us except a small couch and 2 bucket chairs in the living room. The only other seating was the table in the dinning room.
The guest bathroom shower was covered with mold. The windows in both bathrooms and bedrooms were covered with bird droppings, cobwebs and dirt. There was a tractor running from 1: 00am to 3:30am in the vineyard the night before the wedding.
Overall we were not impressed.

While this is an older home it is filled with warmth and charm. When I arrived I was concerned the tasting room was so close that activity and noise may be intrusive, but that was not the case at all! I would definitely recommend this home for vacation in Healdsburg!

We loved Big Oak. It was perfect for 4 women during a birthday celebration weekend. It's a great location about a mile from downtown Healdsburg, the kitchen is well-equipped, and we loved walking through the vineyards and soaking in the hot tub.

Very nice
Great overall. A few comments. Hot tub was nice but was 108 when we arrived, too hot! It got extremely hot quick even when we turned it down. Also we didn’t receive our welcome email with instructions until the day of arrival. We were a bit concerned with delayed checkin that morning as a result. Overall everything was very good!

Big Oak House
Enjoyed location and view. Short drive to Healdsburg. Great access to dry creek wineries. Ideal for biking or boating at Lake Sonoma. Property located adjacent to winery which is great for tasting, but also lacks a little privacy during busy weekends. House was clean and comfortable.

What a pleasure it was for my family and me to stay at Big Oak Vineyard. It's location provides a slice of what it feels like to be among vines. A sweet house with a big view and grounds for kiddos to play provided a perfect long weekend. The only issue we had was the arrival of the gardners at 8:30 am, complete with gas-powered blowers and lawn mowers who for nearly 2 hours groomed the property. NOT pleasant. Otherwise, it was pretty darn wonderful.

The property is far from the largest or most upgraded - but it makes up for it with an abundance of charm and amazing views. Was the perfect spot for a central location getaway with two young families.

Exactly what you want from a rental in wine country! This is my second time staying here and it was great, just as the first stay was. We had 6 people (3 couples) and more than plenty of room/space for everyone. It's a perfect location at the start of beautiful Dry Creek Road and less than a 5 minute drive into downtown Healdsburg. The home is on a gorgeous vineyard right next to West Wines, so don't forget to stop by next door for a free tasting.

Property location is short drive to town and the lawn is beautiful. The furniture is not comfortable. Beds are soft and the living room furniture is hard and cheap.

This house has an amazing location- literally 5 minutes from Big John's grocery and 7 minutes from the Healdsburg plaza. The house is actually in a vineyard. The views are spectacular. The house is the original home owned by the founders of West Wines. It is charming, clean, and just the right size for a group of 4-6 people. We cooked dinner in on our last night and the kitchen was well equipped. We will definitely stay here again!

We were looking for a house for 5 of us to stay near Healdsburg for a trail running race at Lake Sonoma. The Big Oak Vineyard House was absolutely perfect for us. The location was great- just far enough from Healdsburg to feel "in the vineyards" but really only about a 5-10 min drive to town. Hot tub overlooking the vineyards was great after the race. We loved the layout of the house as well for our group. House was very clean (and we have a few very particular travelers). Also loved the Weber BBQ in the back. Would definitely stay here again!

We had high expectations about the house before we arrived and it delivered. Lots of open space. Big bedrooms. Great to come home to after a day of wine tasting to sip purchases staring at the rows of grapevines out as far as you can see. Hot tub was a plus. The sky at night was full of stars. Morning walks through the vineyard right outside you back door was a great way to start the day. Woulvery convenient to Sonoma wineries especially downtown Healdsburg.
