This quaint home sits on a very nice lot about a mile from the center of Sonoma. The owners have planted a wide variety of fruit trees, flora, and––of course––grape vines around the home. The interior spaces are spartan, yet adequate for relaxing after a day of touring or tasting. Most importantly, the beds are very comfortable.

I wanted something different from modern living. This did not disappoint. Beautiful and spacious. I was so impressed with the home. Our plans changed and we ended up leaving one day early (which made me very sad).
If you are looking for something unique and quiet, this is your place.
Host communication was fantastic as well.

Reviewer Comments:
Located in the heart of wine country, this house has the Sonoma feel. The house has been upgraded over the years, but maintains the original feel. the owner should invest in a water filtration system to remove the smell of the water and to soften it. Aside from that more of a hit than a miss.

Great views! Close to downtown - we biked every morning to the square. Quite peaceful neighborhood, will definitely book again.

This is a delightful home for exploring wine country in Sonoma and Napa. House was very clean and had everything we needed. Rockers on the front porch looking out into the vineyards! Highly recommend it!

I could not believe my luck with being able to snag this place. The location was perfect for our weekend of wine tasting, and the house was clean and very comfortable. We had no trouble finding nearby places for good food, either. I can highly recommend staying here.

The house was accurate according to their listing. Very clean, easy check-in owner responded quickly with any questions. The grounds has a walking path around the beautiful flower garden. We really enjoyed the front porch people walking by saying Hi as they passed by. Kitchen was awesome lots of amenities, beds were very comfy. Close to the town of Sonoma not really walking distance (not for us anyway) but a short drive into town. We drove to town walked the square lots of fun shops. We would stay here again!

Very clean, comfortable home in a great location!
Excellent location!!!! Extremely clean and comfortable home. We really appreciated the open communication, ease of entry, fully appointed kitchen, the added extra's that were provided (shampoo/conditioner/body wash, bathroom air freshener, coffee, filters, creamer, cookies/chocolates, kitchen detergents, etc.). Nice touches!
It would be nice if the 2nd bedroom had a queen size bed vs. full (we had 2 couples and a full is kinda small for 2 adults...). We knew in advance that there was only one bathroom but it was nice that there were large mirrors in the bedrooms for 'getting ready' while others were in the bathroom. So, some thought was put into convenience for all, despite only 1 bathroom.
The grounds/gardens are beautiful as are the views of surrounding vineyards!!!
Overall great experience, great hosts!!!! Thanks!!!

Comfy and Good Location
This property was delightful, well appointed and cute. It was a very easy walk to downtown.
Drawbacks:
- if I cannot use the disposal, give me alternatives - like food waste bucket
- the garbage for removal on checkout was not where it said it would be
- the checkout instructions were vague regarding how the owner wanted us to leave the place (e.g. garbage, linens, etc.)
- the owners of the property seem to be on the property in the back and at one point they were walking in the yard right in front of the bedroom window (nothing shady, it was just startling and a bit weird).
- if you are not bringing a car, this might not be the property for you. The walk to downtown was fine, but there is not much Uber/Lyft/Taxi activity and there is nothing but homes in a one mile radius.

Our thoughts for a stay in the the beautiful CA wine country
The location is wonderful, but the local traffic that races by on Denmark Rd is at times not pleasant. It is a spacy home (we were 3 persons for 2 nights and 4 persons for 2 nights. We especially enjoyed sitting on the front porch after we returned
from dinner taking in the surrounding beauty, vineyards and all.
Following is what I consider a constructive criticism:
While the mattresses are of good quality, the size of the bed in the room on the right of the bathroom is too small. My recommendation would be either either 2 singles or a queen bed, and by the way a king size bed in the other bedroom, but a queen is ok.
Best regrds, Ursela Austin
