About this house rental

Our house was extensively remodeled in 2021. We upgraded with a Gourmet Kitchen, dining room, family room and all 3 bathrooms (new vanities/showers). We widened all 3 sliding doors so you have incredible views from the kitchen/dining room/family room/ master bathroom.

Save money on dining out with our amazing new kitchen! It has everything you'll need to prepare a great meal that you can eat while sitting on the deck looking at the view. Would rather BBQ? Sit on the deck while monitoring your food in the BBQ. Don't like to cook? Pick up food in downtown Healdsburg and bring it up. Downtown is only 1.5 miles away!

Healdsburg Bliss House is a noted unofficial hillside landmark. This comfortable open floor plan ranch style home is high up on a ridge above the stunningly gorgeous Dry Creek Wine Valley. Just 1.5 miles from downtown Healdsburg, the home is a blissfully peaceful escape surrounded by 80 acres of lush vineyards. (.6 miles down West Dry Creek rd). The 100ft deck and expansive windows provide endless opportunities to take in the literally 100 mile-180 degree views of vineyards, forests, mountains, big skies and florid sunsets. Watch the hot air balloons rise to the south or the plumes of steam from The Geysers in the surrounding northeast mountains. Bring binoculars and check out the myriad of birds swooping by. Read on the deck, bbq while sipping wine and taking in the views. An outdoor dining table for 6 is a commanding location from which to dine and leisurely watch the sunset. The master suite opens to the deck and the spacious gourmet kitchen/dining/family great room has views as does the generous living room.

Bliss House Hillside Setting: This truly unique location is up a 1/4 mile shared gated and paved drive which is in great condition and suitable for all types of cars.

Bring the camera and the binoculars and no matter what season-warm outerwear as evenings can be cool.

House has 3 bedrooms. Master has a King bed and AMAZING views as well as an attached bathroom with soaker tub. Other 2 bedrooms have queen beds and are on the back side of the house

Kitchen: Has everything you need! New and updated. Has an island with stools so you can sit and talk to whomever is working in the kitchen. Kitchen has Keurig coffee maker (also a drip is you like that better). 4 burner gas range with plenty of pots/pans to cook what you need. Rather BBQ? Thats located on the deck.

Parking: Lots of easy free parking in the driveway! (4 cars max)

Some notable comments from our reviews:
"The kitchen had all the needed equipment for gourmet meal prep, which we did nightly, to take advantage of the wonderful atmosphere of the house."
"The owners provide everything you need for a great stay and have a pretty well stocked kitchen - lots of cooking supplies, dishes, etc."
"We enjoyed sitting on the deck each morning and evening- so much so that we cancelled our dinner plans the last night to enjoy sitting on the deck. Book this place if you can!"

The Weather: From April through August, most afternoons are pretty and bright with breezes. Mornings and nights are usually cool and sometimes the early morning fog comes in to kiss the grapes. Temperatures can range 30-40 degrees in a 24 hour period. September and October is almost always warm and there is less early morning mist or fog. However, there are exceptions...so don't forget the pullover or wrap. Even in winter, when we get the rains that make this such a lovely place...there are many many break through days with crisp sunshine.

Note: We do have some security camera's outside the house (not inside). They are not actively monitored and are in place to see around the house (we had a water leak once and had no way of knowing, with the camera's we can).

Note: Our internet is usually 12mbs or a bit higher. Its worked for me for zoom meetings. But you can't have a 4 or 5 people trying to stream video/download files at the same time. Internet access is limited in our location (no fiber/coax), but its usually fairly fast.

The location is great. It’s minutes from Healdsburg and a staggering amount of wineries. Less than an hour from the coast. It’s situated in the middle of a gorgeous vineyard. The view from the deck is absolutely stunning. The pictures simply do not do it justice. The house looks/feels brand new. It very, very well equipped and furnished, and was spotless. Just outstanding.

We LOVED our stay at the bliss house in Healdsburg last weekend! The open floor plan connecting the living, dining and kitchen were perfect for our group. And the large balcony with spectacular views was well-used for morning coffee and evening family dinners. Woke up to a beautiful sunrise viewed from the master bedroom. The kitchen was fully stocked with lots of cooking, serving and coffee options. The location is ideal - just a short drive to downtown, Next time we are in Healdsburg we will definitely stay here again. Thank you!! Deb and family

The property was lovely. Well appointed. Everything you need for a nice stay. We enjoyed sitting on the deck in the evening and playing games with a glass of wine. Easy accessibility to town and many local wineries.

Very easy check in process and communication with the owner. The house was immaculate and looked exactly as advertised. It is in the middle of a what appeared to be a working vineyard. We ate several meals in and the kitchen had everything needed to cook and grill. The house was also very well supplied with toiletries and cleaning products, often not the case in other homes we have rented. A great experience.

This is a rare gem. The Bliss House is even more beautiful than the photos on VRBO. We appreciated the stellar views from the large deck and from the living room and dining areas. The location is wonderfully quiet and peaceful, in the middle of a vineyard. It is a very short distance from the town of Healdsburg, and it is extremely well stocked with kitchen materials and spices, for those who like to cook and have wine in situ. The beds are very comfortable, there is plenty of closet space with hangers, and ample room for toiletries in the bathrooms. The air conditioning works like a dream, even when it's sweltering outside. I particularly appreciate that the bed linens and towels are washed using unscented detergent. This house is immaculate and has neither mold nor fragrances. Everything was perfect and we hope to return soon.
