A lovely stay. House was well appointed and was decorated to be welcoming and cheerful. The outdoor area was extremely well designed for lounging, dining and strolling. Only 1 1/2 miles to the village market, Jack London saloon and French pastries. Great weekend away

We had a fantastic stay in this lovely home, perfect for two couples. The host's communication was excellent, responsive, and helpful throughout. The house was clean, comfortable, and well-appointed. We especially enjoyed the peaceful backyard deck and spacious yard, ideal for relaxing after a bike ride and wine tasting. The garage was a huge plus for storing bikes and prepping for rides. Located in a quiet neighborhood with minimal traffic. The hot tub was a welcome treat in the evenings as the temperatures cooled down. Highly recommend for a relaxing getaway!

We met up with long time friends and enjoyed a long weekend away to Napa Valley. The house was lovely and just as we had expected. We sat nightly in the beautiful back yard and enjoyed the hot tub. We would highly recommend this property to others.

Charming home with everything you need!

What a loveley little home! It was a perfect place for my husband and me to celebrate our anniversary! It was very clean and updated. The hot tub and outdoor shower were wonderful after a day spent touring the wineries! Located in a quiet residential neighborhood close to many wineries. We would love to go back!

Awesome!!!

We absolutely loved staying in this home. We were here for a wedding weekend, so we didn't get to spend as much time at the home as we would have liked to. The backyard is lovely. Beautiful trees, large, comfortable outdoor furniture, and the jacuzzi was a nice bonus. I highly recommend this property and I hope to have a reason to come back again soon.

Wonderful Glen Ellen Cottage!

This Glen Ellen cottage was so warm and inviting! We felt very much at home here and we really enjoyed our visit. The property exceeded our expectations - the pictures just don't do it justice! The home is beautifully decorated and the bedrooms are very bright and cozy. I loved the guest room with the window facing the hills. The hot tub is great and I particularly enjoyed the outdoor shower. Wonderful property! Thank you for hosting us!

Backyard Nirvana

This property is a gem--simple yet elegant. The backyard is heaven! Photos don't do the property justice. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay; the house has everything you'd need and is very cozy and peaceful. Super comfy beds, well stocked kitchen, and just the right size for two couples and their dogs. We'll be back next July!

Perfect retreat

With my French bulldog, went to wine country to relax and celebrate my new job. This house was exactly what I was looking for: - private hot tub - spacious backyard with lots of lovely little areas to hang out - backyard is completely fenced in so I can relax with my pup - great linens, towels, body soap, and spa robe (not the cheapo stuff) - easy parking - quiet and safe neighborhood - great heater (goodbye summer, hello autumn) - super functional kitchen, had everything I needed for making breakfast - very close to hiking trail with pup and great restaurants 💯 will stay here again. I need to figure out how to save this listing in the VRBO app 😎

Idyllic and Quiet. Sooo Quiet.

The backyard is a paradise. Three huge oaks canopy 90% of the backyard. Seating left and right, front and back. The spa was pristine. Heavenly. The inside was very well appointed. We couldn't stop ourselves from pointing out to each other how nice all of the fixtures were. The shower, the baths, the kitchen, wow!, the place just popped with class and charm. Out front we had room for two cars in the driveway, plus two more on the street (if needed). Fabulous!

Cute and CLEAN house with ginormous backyard

This was my 6th year coming to the Sonoma area to wine taste. We have always stayed in a VRBO during these trips. This was definitely one of my favorites! The house was clean and well stocked - down to having nice toiletries in the showers! Even the outdoor shower! Kitchen had everything we needed to cook and grill. The beds were super comfortable and I think I liked the pillow better than mine at home…might need to get the details on that! You can tell someone really cares for this home. The towels and sheets smelled like fresh laundry and were very refreshing. Can’t wait to reserve our next stay!

Incredibly cute home with all the little touches to make you feel welcome and comfortable (hello bath robes)! Very nicely appointed with pretty much everything needed. Plus, the backyard is a dream space for morning coffee, evening hot tub, or just soaking up the afternoon sun. Perfect for our stay and very responsive host and property manager. 10/10 recommend!

Indeed an Inviting Sonoma Wine Country Getaway!

This was our 23rd summer in beautiful Sonoma County. Our stay in your lovely home made this year wonderful! The home was very comfortable, the kitchen well-stocked, the bed nice and cozy, and the backyard was fantastic! The attention to detail did not go unnoticed. The bottle of wine welcomed us, and the comfortable outdoor sofas allowed us to enjoy summer reading. We dined alfresco on the picnic table and enjoyed the stars and the sweet smell of the oak trees! The house has easy access to Highway 12 and Arnold Drive where we shopped at Safeway, Oliver's, and the Sonoma Market and visited with friends we have met throughout the years. We dined at Les Pascals Patisserie et Boulangerie, the Jack London Saloon, The Yeti, El Molina Central, and took a drive to Sebastopol to visit Merry Edwards winery and partake in some some Screamin' Mimi's ice cream, plus so much more. A visit to Mayo Family Winery was fun and gave us a chance to support a family business. Kerstin and David ensure that their guests are comfortable, even purchasing folding chairs that we took to watch the 4th of July parade on Sonoma Square. Needless to say, the week flew by! Thank you, Kerstin and David for making our 23rd year so fabulous and memorable!

Sonoma Valley Charm

This home was ideal for our wine country week. Comfortable, well-appointed house with gorgeous backyard and deck, outdoor furniture and jacuzzi. Surrounded by wineries, this was an ideal location for venturing out to tastings. Tuesday night Sonoma fest was excellent. Highly recommend this home for 2-4 guests.

Our family lives in the Bay Area, where David grew up. Our daughter lives in Europe and our son is studying at UH Manoa in Hawaii. Since Kerstin is from Germany, we have been lucky to explore Europe. We enjoy the outdoors and learning about different cultures. It is exciting to visit new places. For a quick escape we love to come up to the Wine Country and enjoy Glen Ellen.

Why they chose this property

We love Sonoma! In fact we got married here over 30 years ago. Glen Ellen is centrally located in the Wine Country: Sonoma, Napa, Healdsburg, Russian River are all within an easy reach. This quiet little town is only about 6 miles north of Sonoma Square.
It takes only an hour from the Golden Gate to get here.
There are so many activities- you can enjoy wine tasting, eat at some of the best restaurants, hike, bike, play golf, enjoy a day at the Sonoma Inn or the Kenwood Spa. Shopping is always fun around the square in Sonoma..and of course you can just kick up your feet in our beautiful shaded garden with a good book and a glass of local wine!

This little house is cozy and comfortable with a beautiful garden. Everything is there for your comfort and convenience:
Two well appointed bed rooms with queen beds and luxury cotton linens, fresh robes and slippers are waiting. One bedroom has an en-suite bath with a shower. The other bath is located right next to the second bedroom. Both bathrooms have been recently remodeled.
There is a nice queen size travel bed, that can be set up in the living room, if you need additional beds.
A fully equipped kitchen with gas stove, microwave, blender, coffee maker, wine opener(very important!) and even a picnic basket. We do supply coffee and tea for you. There are spices and cooking basics in the pantry.
Dining room seats four comfortably, but fitting up to six is no problem.
