Very nice property & home w/ a beautiful guest house. Guest house is huge. Both houses were very clean & smelled fresh when we walked in. We were quite pleased with the comfort of the mattresses, bedding & luxurious bathrooms/showers. Kitchen is gorgeous & fully stocked with many items to help entertain. Owner was very helpful & communicative leading up to our stay & answered any questions I had in a timely matter. Well stocked with extra towels, paper products, cleaning supplies, as well a few basic pantry supplies in the kitchen. There are some details however that were frustrating & could be improved. Neither house had central AC & we needed it in mid July, especially traveling with 89 yr old and 3 other seniors. Portable AC units came with no instructions & were not put together with hose & funnel. The unit for the guest house was in the main and was a bear to relocate. We never had relief from the heat during our stay due to the fact we didn’t know how to use the units. Would have helped to at least cover this in guidebook. Another frustration & disappointment was to have planned a BBQ tri tip meal last evening there, only to find out the provided outdoor BBQ lacked propane. Reached out to owner to find out if there was a backup tank on property any where but by this time in evening it was really time to come up with plan B for dinner. Overall we enjoyed our stay here but just feel like these details are important and should be shared.

lovely home

Loved our stay near Occidental! Great location for exploring Sonoma County. Nicely kept and updated rental that was setup well for our family. Outdoor patio space was really nice. Owners were very responsive and friendly!

I highly recommend staying at this beautiful property. My friends and I truly enjoyed our stay. What better way to wake up in the morning with a delicious cup of coffee soaking the beautiful scenic views of the vineyard and a lovely field. The house is spacious, perfect for a group. There is even a guest house. Perfect for a couple or even a small family to stay in. -The hosts are so kind and communicative. When I had any questions or needed anything, they were quick to respond and help. -The house has everything you could possibly need. There is coffee and sugar. Baking and cooking ware. If you need to wash your clothes, there is a wash room with all the necessities and more. -It truly felt like a home away from away. -The beds were very comfortable. I could keep singing their praises. I surely would love to come back for another stay. If you are looking for a nice, relaxing stay with a view of the vineyards, I would look no further. The family hosting really is wonderful, hospitable, kind and responsive. Dare I say, the best hosts I have had :). I'm so happy I booked this. I hope you are able to enjoy your VRBO stay here as much as we had. Have a Happy New Year ahead! Happy travels!

We enjoyed our stay here! The grounds are truly beautiful and the home is very charming. Communication was A+ from the hosts and check-in was straightforward. (One thing to note is that someone needs to exit the car to open the parking gate. This was fine for our group, but may not be ideal for everyone.) The kitchen was well stocked with cooking essentials and the bathrooms had nice body wash, shampoo, and conditioner, which was appreciated! The guide book was great for recommendations. I removed one star from cleanliness since some of the dishes and kitchen towels were dirty to the point we had to rewash or not use them, and there was nowhere to hang more than 1 shower towel in the bathroom. Draping wet towels on furniture isn't good for the furniture or sanitary for guests. (Add some hooks to the walls and/or an over-the-door hanger and problem solved). There was also just one hand towel in the bathroom and it was very thin, so it didn't dry. With regular hand washing, we were all drying our hands on a sad soggy towel. Considering the overall cost (including cleaning fee) plus the time we put into clean up at checkout as requested, these were little things that ate into the value of the experience.

We really enjoyed staying here. After long days enjoying western Sonoma County, this was the perfect easy retreat to relax and unwind in comfortably. The house is well organized and furnished and provided us with the space and amenities to enjoy our time. The kids especially loved playing outside in the spacious yard with wonderful vineyard and redwood views. Thanks

The house and property was in stellar condition. Renovation of this home was done in excellent taste. Very comfortable and homey! Frankie and Mike are excellent host and at your service to help with anything. Just call a phone call away and they will help you with what ever you need.
