About this property

Wine Country Getaway with Panoramic Views-5 min from downtown Healdsburg

Welcome to Bliss House – Your Healdsburg Wine Country Escape
Perched high above the stunning Dry Creek Valley, Bliss House is a peaceful, beautifully remodeled retreat just 1.5 miles from downtown Healdsburg. Surrounded by 80 acres of vineyards, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers panoramic 180° views, a gourmet kitchen, and a 100-foot deck perfect for sipping wine while watching the sunset.


Recently Remodeled for Comfort & Style In 2021, we gave Bliss House a full makeover:
– Gourmet kitchen with island seating and modern appliances
– Spacious dining and family rooms with open-concept flow
– All bathrooms upgraded with new vanities and walk-in showers
– Widened sliding doors in the kitchen, dining, family room, and master bath to maximize the breathtaking views


Dine In, Grill Out, or Grab & Go
– Cook like a chef in the fully stocked kitchen with a 4-burner gas range, Keurig & drip coffee makers, and all the cookware you need
– Prefer to grill? Fire up the BBQ on the deck while enjoying the view
– Not in the mood to cook? Downtown Healdsburg is just 1.5 miles away—perfect for takeout or a quick bite


Unmatched Views & Outdoor Living
The 100-foot deck is the heart of the home:
– Dine al fresco at the outdoor table for 6
– Watch hot air balloons rise in the morning or steam plumes from The Geysers in the distance
– Spot birds with binoculars or simply relax with a book and a glass of wine


Comfortable Bedrooms
– Master Suite: King bed, deck access, and ensuite bath with soaker tub and views
– Bedroom 2 & 3: Queen beds, located on the quiet back side of the house
Easy Access & Parking
– Located up a well-maintained, gated ¼-mile paved drive
– Plenty of parking for up to 4 cars


What to Expect from the Weather
– April–August: Warm, breezy afternoons and cool mornings/evenings
– September–October: Warm and dry with fewer foggy mornings
– Winter: Rain brings lush beauty, but expect sunny breaks too
– Tip: Bring layers—temperatures can swing 30–40°F in a day

What Guests Are Saying
– “Peaceful, private, and the views are unforgettable.”
– “We enjoyed sitting on the deck each morning and evening—so much so that we canceled our dinner plans the last night just to stay in. Book this place if you can!”
– “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.”
– “As a first-time VRBO user, I was nervous about our accommodations; that is, until we walked in—absolutely stunning views, spacious and immaculate home with views from every side and window.”

Other Notes
– WiFi: ~12 Mbps—great for Zoom, but not ideal for multiple simultaneous streamers
– Security: Outdoor cameras only, for safety and maintenance (e.g., water leak alerts)

About the host

Hosted by Peter Carroll

Host profile image
Peter is the 3rd generation to work this property. Irv originally bought the land below and behind the house in the 1930's. Peter's mother, Andie grew up in the house down the hill from the current house. Irv was a farmer in the area where he grew crops and raised cattle and sheep. Andie was a longtime school teacher in the bay area.

Currently, Peter is managing the rental property and wishes he had more time to spend there!

Why they chose this property

The property was inherited from my Andie's father and was part of the property where Andie was raised and grew up. The view is amazing, the people are nice and the town is small and has a certain charm. Its location is perfect as you get to live in the country, but only be 5 minutes from downtown Healdsburg.

What makes this property unique

Incredible views of the valley from the deck. Quiet location a very short drive to downtown.
