Summary of reviews
The property offers stunning views, well-equipped kitchen, and a peaceful retreat. Sally, the host, was gracious and accommodating with thoughtful touches. A perfect place for relaxation and creating special memories!
10.0
My wife and I, son and a handful of my son's friends had a great long weekend in Dry Creek. Sally Weed is an amazing host. We have stayed with Sally on four separate occasions. The elevated setting of the farm house looking East back across the valley is so refreshing. We enjoyed a handful of days enjoying the pool, cooking meals in the great/well stocked kitchen and on the BBQ and overall having an amazingly relaxing time. The location is while remote only 15 minutes from downtown Healdsburg and not much more than an hour from San Francisco. Special place and thanks for letting us enjoy in for a few days.

Everything about our stay here exceeded our expectations! Sally's home was an idyllic home base for our group of 4 as we explored Sonoma on a 4 night visit. From the drive through her vineyard; her gorgeous garden; pool and spa with beautiful sunset and sunrise views; and amazingly comfortable home; no detail was left unturned and we were in need or want of nothing. The furnishings were oh-so-comfortable, the books were fascinating, the kitchen was a cook's dream (and very well stocked), decor was incredible and Sally was the best host. She left us with fully detailed instructions and we never had a question about how to operate, access, utilize or leave anything. Her descriptions of the home and location were absolutely accurate. We quickly and easily got into downtown Healdsburg, Big John's Market, the 101 and if you are a walker or runner, the surrounding area around the house was perfect for that as well. I can't recommend this enough and hope we find our way back here soon!

A truly wonderful house & property!
Attentive & accommodating host. Private and tranquil, but close enough to great wineries and downtown Healdsburg. Great for adults and children. Comfortable rooms and well-stocked kitchen. Beautiful pool & spa. Incredible views.

We had an absolutely amazing time at Sally's home! The trip started out rough due to a wildfire north of the house. We couldn't check in on our arrival date, as there was an evacuation in place, so there was no way to get to the house. As stressed as Sally was about the fire and the potential for damage at her home, she immediately thought about us and went to work to find alternate accommodations for the five of us. We ended up staying at a hotel in Healdsburg for the first night and we worked out the financial ramifications with Sally in a very professional manner. We were able to check in on day two and were not disappointed. Immediately upon arriving at this beautiful destination all of our stress melted away. The home is beautiful, only somewhat outdone by the scenery. I can't describe just how beautiful the view is. Sally greeted us and I have to say, she is an awesome person! We will definitely be back and will recommend this VRBO to our friends! Thanks for making it memorable Sally!

This is one of the most magical VRBO’s we have stayed at. Our second time here and definitely coming back. Host Sally Weed is a magnificent, delightful person and also available when any small issues arise, which seldom happens. Amazing view, pool, hot tub and large rear patio make the home very enjoyable. Sleep on very comfortable beds with the windows open and fall asleep to the sounds of nature. You will leave relaxed!

The house was even more beautiful than the photos show! My friends and I were breathless when we arrived from the amazing views, the gorgeous furnishings and the personal touches, including lovely art, music playing throughout the home and fresh flowers in several rooms. Everything was of the finest quality including the linens, mattresses and even the dishes and cookware. The location of the home was perfect for offering a tranquil retreat after enjoying everything the area has to offer. Sally was super helpful and a pleasure to deal with. My party and I hope to return to her amazing property!

We had a fantastic time staying at Sally's property. The perfect spot in Dry Creek to enjoy views, time with friends, our dog, and simply relax. Sally could not have been more accommodating and gracious. Truly an amazing experience. Thank you Sally!

Our family had a wonderful week at Sally's place. It is hard to say which we enjoyed more; the gorgeous views and outdoor space or the cozy, beautifully appointed indoor space and the well equipped kitchen that allowed us to cook for the entire family. We could not have asked for a better getaway!
10.0
Sally's property is just spectacular. Truly an amazing spa like retreat. It's even better than the pictures. It's so well stocked. When we arrived, there were fresh flowers from the garden in many of the rooms. Wine from their vineyard and a note welcoming us. Sally was so accommodating throughout our visit and clearly wanted to make sure our stay was perfect.... and it was! We will be coming back.

What a perfect spot in Sonoma. Absolutely beautiful. Sally has thought of everything. And, if she hasn’t, she lives on the property nearby and will take care of it immediately. Property is spectacular. We’ve stayed there twice and plan to return.

Absolutely the nicest VRBO we have stayed in! And we have stayed in a lot. Beautiful home, property and location. Sally is wonderful and available if anything is needed. Will definitely stay there again, hopefully soon!

Sally was the perfect host - there when you need her while still offering as much privacy as you want. The house was perfect - the view was stunning, it had everything you might need [kitchen, towels etc] pool was great and all ages had a fabulous time making new memories. We will definitely come back. Thank you, Sally!

Our girlfriends get together annually to meet at different places. This estate on 20 acres was beautiful! Everything we needed was in the home plus Sally made us a maple breakfast loaf one morning. We definitely plan on returning next year to go kayaking and visit a few more wineries closer to the VRBO

We had a great return to trip to stay at Weed Farm. Sally does a great job keeping her farmhouse well stocked and in tip top shape. The view is outstanding! Our whole crew loved the "homey" nature of the surroundings with all the needed amenities. We will be back.
10.0
What an amazing house and location! All the amenities were perfect. So many extra-special touches, too, from the local wine to the fresh-picked flowers. Our host answered all of our questions and was there with anything we needed. The yard/garden was perfect and the pool a special retreat on a hot summer day. We will definitely be back!

We just returned from a week at Sally's Healdsburg property. The moment we drove through the gates up the long drive to the Nantucket style shingled two story home we knew it was going to be an amazing week. The home has a great layout for large groups. The kitchen was filled with lots of interesting cookbooks and well stocked with spices, dishes and appliances. The Garland stove was a treat to use as well as the Weber BBQ outside near the pool. We used the pool and the floats everyday. The views out the backyard of the valley filled with vineyards were breathtaking. The home was filled with fresh flowers and we enjoyed the nice bottle of Pinot that was provided as a welcome gift.
Sally was very accommodating with our request to arrive early with our older dog that needed a break from a long car ride. We greatly appreciated her flexibility! She lives on the property but never saw her. If we had a question, she was quick to respond. She is an excellent host. Thank you Sally for sharing your home! We plan to return!
10.0
Our family and dogs enjoyed a week long stay at the property. Sally is communicative, considerate, a perfect host.
We enjoyed the view, the pool, cooked family dinners in a well-equipped kitchen and bbq, and were able to let the dogs run without worry. Exactly the time away we needed this summer.

This was our second visit to this incredible home which in itself says a lot. It was very comfortable for 6 adults and two kids under age 10. The views are amazing, and Sally did everything possible to make our stay perfection. Since the weather was extremely hot, the pool was a wonderful way for us to stay cool.
10.0
This house I would highly recommend. Beautifully decorated, comfortable and we were greeted with fresh flowers from around the property. It had tons of space, clean, and all the items you would need to entertain. Not to mention the view was breath taking! The outside space was equally amazing plenty of seating along with pool and hot tub. Hiking and great restaurants were close by. I definitely hope to make it back someday:)
10.0
I can’t say enough good things about this home, the property, and Sally. It was absolutely breathtaking and the house immediately felt like home. Great Sonos system playing relaxing music on arrival, fresh cut flowers from the garden throughout the home. A screened in porch for lazy naps and a fountain trickling outside? Perfection. The kitchen had everything and I loved cooking there will all the natural light pouring in. My dog gives it 4 paws up too. The walks on the property were peaceful, as was the country lane where the home was located. I will definitely be back.
10.0
Sally's house was great and she was a great host of me & my family, therefore I'm happy to provide an endorsement. First of all, the house offered a beautiful views and was well appointed w/ all of the items anyone might need. Everything was well kept, clean and in great shape. The listing photos of the outdoor space undersell it and especially the view. The pool and spa were also both really nice. Sally was also very communicative and accommodating. She was available but not obtrusive...just what you want in a host IMHO. I expect we'll be back.

If you are looking to get away and relax in a beautiful location, this is the place. Host was accommodating and helpful. Truly special home with all needed amenities, great memories made.
10.0
There are so many wonderful things about this property: the views were spectacular, the outdoor spaces should be in a magazine, the house was spacious, comfortable and extraordinarily well-equipped. Sally was always available for any questions, but very respectful of our privacy. We could not have asked for a better home away from home.
10.0
This place is a true gem, and Sally was a perfect host throughout our stay. The views from the house of the rolling vineyards, and the mountains in the back were surreal and picturesque. The house is well stocked, and you can even get food/groceries delivered through your app. We highly recommend this place, and will certainly be visiting again in future!

We wanted a relaxing get-away just prior to Christmas. This home was just perfect - we even had Christmas decorations, a roaring fireplace, music playing throughout the house - and the host is wonderful to work with. She is very communicative and really wants to make sure you have what you need (including privacy if that is your preference). The house is beautiful, well-appointed, excellent location, spectacular views, and all the little details were a huge bonus (eg. host left us wine and snacks). We could not have asked for a better experience. I would highly recommend this home if you're looking for a wine country get-away! The descriptions and photos are all accurate (I personally loved all the detail that was available before I booked) but I'm sure if you have any questions, the host would be happy to answer them.

We LOVED this property. Sally was the best host. The views were incredible, the kitchen was a joy to cook in, the fresh flowers and wine waiting for us when we arrived were an amazing touch. We just can’t say enough about how much we loved our stay! It was perfect!

Absolutely a beautiful view…well stocked home with everything and more that you might need.
The owner is extremely easy to work with and she had fresh flowers and wine to welcome us.
Our only complaint was we felt the house needed a more thorough cleaning….one of the bedspreads had stains
Wine glasses were dirty .,.outdoor pads in the chairs were stained ….we felt we needed to wipe down the counters in the kitchen
There was plenty of room and the views were breathtaking

This is the second time we visited this home and will return again every time we return to Healdsburg! Amazing views and beautiful grounds. The kitchen is state of the art. Thanks Sally for sharing your home with us!!

This property was amazing. I was excited about it from the pictures and description on VRBO, but it was absolutely fabulous in person. Six of us were there on a girls' trip and this place totally delivered and put a wonderful trip, over the top.
The amenities, from the kitchen to the outdoor seating and the built-in hot tub, the comfortable beds and the views, OH MY, THE VIEW--Spectacular!
This house was also in a great central location to the many wineries we were tasting at. The booking was easy, the communication was easy, and this place delivered everything and more! I can't wait to come back here again.
10.0
The property was gorgeous! Every amenity you could need! Really one of the best places we've ever stayed at. We've stayed at several places around California and this was by far the best. Anything you want in the kitchen is there, also plenty of towels, toiletries, soap items, every little detail you could imagine was here! Sally is the best host. She is so receptive, open and kind. She got back to us after any message we left, or any question we had. Such a wonderful place and experience for your family. We will definitely be returning!

We wanted to take a family trip this year, but with everyone's busy schedules, planning something closer to home seemed to appeal to everyone in our family.
So we booked this home with Sally. This is a great house located in beautiful, picturesque Healdsburg. High atop a knoll the incredible vineyards and rolling hills views were a pleasure to experience and the pool was a great place to cool off. The kitchen was super, outdoor grill was convenient, the home seemed to have everything you could need. Internet access was superb. The beds were very comfortable, and the host, Sally was responsive and accommodating. Beautiful touch with flowers in the rooms, and even a tasting of the owner's delicious Syrah.
Wonderful, enjoyable stay had by all!
5.0
Photos don’t do it justice. It’s a sanctuary isolated from the hustle bustle but close enough to town and wineries for regular trips to the market, town and restaurants. We were a group of six adults and two young kids and all fit comfortably. Sally is such a gracious host and provided so many thoughtful details - bottles of wine w grapes from her vineyard, homemade strawberry jam (!), old New Yorker and Cooking Light mags, cookbooks and books galore, any toiletry you might have forgotten at home (including Covid tests which we thankfully didn’t need!). The kitchen is fully equipped. Beds super comfortable. Views supreme. Bird sounds so calming and sunsets indescribably beautiful. If you’re a cyclist the home has plenty of great nearby rides, and there so many beautiful nearby wineries nestled into the hills. You'd also be very content just staying on the property. We took full advantage of the pool and hot tub and backyard. We can’t wait til we can come back and stay again.

Absolutely wonderful!
Nestled above Dry Creek Road, this charming home has vineyard views for miles. It's very special. The house is pure charm, freshly cut wildflowers in ceramic vases throughout the home, comfortable rooms with excellent light streaming in, gorgeous bathrooms, and a well-equipped kitchen.
Sally, the owner spoiled us as I'm sure she does all her guests. We arrived to a jar of homemade strawberry jam that was possibly the best strawberry jam we have ever enjoyed! Wine crafted from vineyard Syrah grapes! We felt so welcomed and embraced. There is a warmth in this beautiful home that is restorative.
Sally is always available to assist and super responsive. Everything is clearly labeled, instructions provided for home, and everything is easy to use. Our family didn't need anything during our stay but we were able to text to confirm our arrival and departure, and confirm we were enjoying.
I also want to mention how awesome the pool and spa/hot tub area is. The poolside chairs and loungers are perfect, terrific umbrellas, and great covered, trellised outdoor eating area with magical outdoor lighting.
There are so many ways to enjoy this wine country house.
We stayed a week and it wasn't long enough. We can't wait to return. Thank you, Sally for an incredible escape and a true Healdsburg experience.
