This property is amazing! The management company is the best I have ever dealt with. They make me want to explore other properties they manage on our next California adventure. They were very responsive and helpful in all aspects of our trip from the property checkin, vineyard tour planning, pantry pre-stocking, transportation and any issues/questions. I would definitely recommend this property if you want a secluded private and beautiful space.
Such a beautiful site, so perfect for our son’s wedding.
It was a beautiful intimate gathering, we couldn’t imagine it any where else. It rained on the day which somehow made it a more special - family and friends coming together to support and celebrate. Pure magic!!
This property was perfect for all 8 adults for our family reunion. The weather was a bit chilly but we all still had a great time. Having the van to take us for the day was wonderful. Thank you
The home is beautiful. The pictures did not do it justice.
Traveled with my spouse and 3 other couples. It was spacious with the perfect amount of room and bathroom for each.
The property is truly gorgeous and an elegant place to stay and enjoy the beautiful home and grounds.
The property manager, Gaetan, was extremely helpful with additional services such as pantry stocking, personal chef recommendation and coordinating vendors, etc.
No complaints just praises.
My brother & his girlfriend came into town to visit and celebrate our Mom's 89th birthday. I found the VRBO, Sonoma County Escape, and we were delighted! The grounds are like a botanical garden - so many beautiful & interesting planting materials & trees, all manicured so beautifully. The house was very comfortable and well-appointed. We had everything we needed and enjoyed every minute. If anything, the photos don't do it justice. We will be back for another special occasion! I can't wait!
We had a wonderful stay at this property. Five girlfriends get-a-way to enjoy wine country. The management company was very communicative and offered an array of add-ons to make your stay and specialized as you want. They answered all questions timely and provided helpful information. We were greeted upon arrival to make sure we knew everything needed about the property as well as given some of the property's very nice wine. Conveniently situated between Napa and Alexander Valley (approx 45 to each) made winery days easy to get to. Glen Ellen and downtown Sonoma also easily accessible from the house for closer exploration days. The house is up a mountain road so be prepared for some windy and at time bumpy (although paved) roads. Nothing too bad but due to our group size we had a mini van that probably didn't have the best suspension. We do wish we spent more time at the house as the property is just amazing, spacious, relaxing and comfortable. No neighbors in view. Complete privacy. And the gym on-site was great for the few of us who wanted to get in a workout before starting the day. Pictures of property and house are 100% accurate. We do look forward to staying here again.

Amazing property but a great amount of disappointments
The property is amazing. I mean it’s just gorgeous. The below issues though made this experience less than ideal.1. We were told someone was going to meet us for check-in and provide a key - this didn’t happen and we were able to get instructions to get the key out of a lock box but again communication was off 2. There was tons of trash in the parking spot in front of the guest house. I wish I would have taken a picture.3. One of the ovens didn’t work and we weren’t notified until after check-in4. The jacuzzi also didn’t work - it had an E6 heater error on it and was unusable. Again very disappointing when we are paying a lot to use ALL the amenities.5. The pool heater wasn’t working - again the hosts said the solar heater was on but the pool cleaner guy who came by on Friday said the solar heating system wasn’t even hooked up. It was clear the hosts didn’t want people using the pool because they refused to turn on the gas heater. Again when I book a place I want to be able to use ALL of the amenities. Lastly water pressure throughout the house was pretty poor. We did still love the property and location but probably wouldn’t stay there again.
4 sets of couples booked the property to celebrate us all turning 40 over an extended Veteran’s Day weekend.
Overall the property was very pretty and it was perfect for what we needed - each couple had their own bath and bedroom and there was plenty of communal space. The kitchen was well equipped and we needed for nothing. The drive up the mountain was not short - and a bit challenging for those that get car sick - but not a huge issue.
There were a few issues during our stay that may be notable. After requesting the pool be heated upon our arrival is was still well below a temperature that would have allowed swimming. It basically took until the 4th day for it to get to a temp that made it possible but still a bit of a disappointment. I’m not sure if the heater is on its way out or the nights were just too cold but we wanted a heated pool and would have picked a different house if we had known it would not have worked. On the second day the hot water and fire pit stopped working during the morning. This caused an issue since we were all getting ready to leave for the day - cold showers all around. My assumption was the propane tank puttered out and it was in fact empty. Not something you would expect to happen given the price point.
In all cases the issues were remedied quickly and professionally by the property manager. We were not charged for the pool and also compensated for our inconvenience. Still it was not the best experience having to chat with the property manager daily or have them/maintenance at the property each day of your vacation
Perfect Wine Country escape and overall experience. Property is beyond expectations, words can’t describe - perfect. Management service is the best, makes the scheduling/planning…easy. This is the perfect selection for those interested in the best wine country experience.
Amazing stay and can't say enough about how beautiful this property is. The home is absolutely amazing and the views stunning. So thankful we got the opportunity to stay in this gorgeous home.
Excellent management company that goes beyond all expectations. We were able to get answers from WiFi to AC to pool operation within minutes of asking!
This is a secluded, lush and charming property nestled into a gorgeous little valley complete with a vineyard and views of redwood groves. The main and guest houses are either new or redone and everything is tastefully appointed. The outdoor spaces are perfect for families, with nooks and crannies to explore in addition to the gorgeous main pool area. We would definitely return here, it's a magical place. The management team is highly responsive and helpful.
Our family vacation was just absolutely perfect - all communication was easy, the house was stocked/appointed with everything you would need, the property is stunning and well kept, and the site was very private and quiet! We will definitely be booking another stay soon!
I recently visited this property with 7 of my friends for a girls weekend. The property is absolutely gorgeous and everything we could have hoped for - the pictures don't even do it justice. The outside area (pool, and firepit) is perfect for hanging out during the day or in the evening and the little gym area was perfect for girls who wanted to get a workout in before we started our activities for the day. All beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of space for all of us.
Christina and Cole were wonderful to deal with. Pre-trip, they provided recommendations for a chef that we brought in for dinner one night and helped us stock the fridge so we had what we needed upon arrival. They were there to greet us and give us a tour of the house when we arrived and to make sure we had everything we needed. We also utilized the transportation that they provided throughout the trip which I would highly recommend. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and I would love to come back. Cannot recommend enough.
We were excited about staying at this property as a place to stay in between our wine tours but this property was truly an oasis of its own. We were thrilled to get up every morning and take in the views, even when it rained. We took advantage of all of the amenities including the gym and the hot tub which gave us plenty to do even when the weather took a turn. So much so that we re-arranged our schedule so that we could enjoy the property more.
The Property Manager, Cole, was incredibly responsive, accessible and tremendously helpful throughout the entire weekend. He made sure we had everything we needed throughout the weekend and was the best chauffeur we've ever had. Finally, the kitchen. We cooked throughout the weekend and this was the first property we've stayed at with knives that are sharp, tupperware for leftovers, two ovens for big meals and appliances for baking. Most importantly, all of the drawers and cabinets were labeled so we could find everything quickly. We will absolutely be recommending this property to our friends and family and will make plans in the future to return ourselves.
We had a fabulous time at this property for my Dad's 75th bithday weekend. It was absolutely gorgeous and very comfortable for our group of nine. Cole took great care of us and was super responsive to any questions or needs we had while at the house. Excellent property and service by the Menth group.
This an amazing place! We couldn't have asked for more. The property management team did a perfect job and the house and grounds were spectacularly beautiful. The natural beauty surrounding the property made it feel so peaceful. The house was spotless and had everything we needed. We would stay here again.
Gaetan looked after us incredibly well, and made sure everything was easy. We had a fantastic time. Property was perfect for lots of friends, family and babies to all hang together.
Great house. Every thing you need. Nice cooks kitchen .
House a little remote. Nice grounds , pool, gardens and grape vineyard. Management group the best.
