Fantastic Wine Country Home
Our rental in Glen Ellen, CA was the perfect home for our wine country trip to Sonoma and Napa. The house is stunning. Plenty of room for three couples to spread out. The owner was able to push the 2 twin beds together in one of the rooms so we all had king sized beds. There was plenty of seating, both inside and out for all of us to have nice dinners and drinks. The grounds were spectacular with apple and pear trees and the pool was warm and perfect for relaxing. The house is close enough to Glen Ellen that we could walk to restaurants and the market but it was secluded enough to make us feel like we were the only people in the area. We had high expectations for the house and it exceeded them. I highly recommend this home if you are spending time in Sonoma or Napa.

Exceptional Property for Relaxing Family Gathering
Our family loved this beautiful and relaxing property. The layout allowed for indoor gatherings for meals and games, while ensuring everyone could have a feeling of privacy at the start and end of the day. There were multiple outdoor areas for meals that had beautiful views, yet the property still felt completely private. We agree with all of the positive comments from the previous reviewers, especially that the pictures can't do this home justice.

Perfect wine country retreat!
We just returned from 10 blissful days at this beautiful property in Glen Ellen. It's just a short drive (walk) from the charming downtown area of Glen Ellen, which has a well-stocked supermarket, fabulous restaurants, a French bakery and gourmet breakfast spot. It's conveniently located to several wineries and all the restaurants in downtown Sonoma. The house itself is perfection - a great layout for a family with children, teens, grandparents...everything on one floor, but spread out so everyone has their own space and bathroom. Two communal areas for hanging out and socializing make it a excellent space for family gatherings. The ping pong table was a HUGE hit with our teens. The pool area is tranquil and relaxing, ideal for enjoying a cup of coffee in the early morning and a glass of sparkling wine at the close of the day. We had a great experience with the property manager. This home is well maintained. It had all the right touches to make it feel homey, but luxurious. Gorgeous wine country views from each and every window was the icing on the cake. We will definitely be back!

Quiet Luxury in Glen Ellen
I have been a Vrbo renter for over a decade and I would have to say this might be the best North American property I've ever stayed in. We were a group of three couples and the accomodation couldn't have been more perfect - everyone with their own rooms with ensuite, large well equipped kitchen and great outdoor spaces and gardens. Excellent dining (and groceries) a short walk away. Everything was simply perfect - including the hosts who were welcoming and easy to contact.

Perfect, perfect!
Where do I begin - this was the most perfect rental ever. The house is absolutely stunning, pristinely clean, spacious, appointed with everything you could possibly need, and beautifully decorated (and with really nice housewares and furniture- not your typical cheap rental things). We cooked a few meals in and it was so nice to have a fully outfitted kitchen and even some nice-to-have decorative pieces that made it feel like a home and our celebration feel special (i.e. charcuterie boards, cloth napkins, placemats, serving platters, etc) The outside was equally (if not more) stunning - the landscaping is an absolute dream - and we even ditched our winery plans one day to take full advantage of the pool. Our group kept saying we felt like we were at a wellness retreat the whole weekend. The location couldn't have been better - a quick walk into Glen Ellen town - we did a bakery visit, grocery run, and evening dinner all on foot. We were also then very centrally located to do winery excursions during the day. We had a relatively easy time getting an Uber to dinner one night, (which I know in some of the less-centrally located parts of Sonoma County can be a challenge) just give yourself a little more wiggle room for the ride to be picked up/arrive than you might be used to in a more urban/suburban location.

Lovely, peaceful property in charming Glen Ellen
Our group was celebrating a 60th birthday and the house and yard provided lots of space for people to both spread out and be together. Kitchen and master bedroom are very spacious and nicely appointed except for the fact that there were no wine glasses, a necessity for most I would think! We loved the yard and pool area although seating was not particularly comfy nor was the living room seating comfortable. Overall a very nice house with lots of interesting books, walkable to town and a gorgeous setting!

Relaxing Stay in Glen Ellen
This secluded Glen Ellen home is exactly as described and photographed. The home has all modern amenities except air conditioning. Several days were quite hot and only two of the three rooms had an “a/c” fan (the owner should consider adding a third “a/c” fan for the third bedroom). My son with asthma had a flare at the home as we needed to keep all the windows and doors open to allow the cooler night air to flow into the home. The pool is not heated, per se, although our kids didn’t mind as it was pretty hot during the day. The home is set atop a hillside so we saw lots of deer and wild turkeys roaming during our stay. The backyard itself is a sanctuary and offered plenty of relaxation. The town of Glen Ellen is sleepy but has a wonderful grocery store and restaurants that offer carry out if you decide to dine at home. Also the home is well stocked with cleaning and paper supplies so we didn’t need to bring. I would recommend that the home owner replace the towels as they are very dingy, stained and worn. Overall great property and would recommend more for cooler Sonoma months.

So much better than the pictures
The pictures of this property are just amazing...and then you arrive and it's insanely better! We picked this property for the pool and the location being central to almost everything in Sonoma Country. The pool and backyard area are stunning. Such a secret gem. The home is comfortable and spacious with top of the line everything. The location is basically 30 minutes (or less) from Healdsburg, down to Sonoma, over west to Petaluma and Napa (and north) to the east. It's a wonderful home base for a relaxing vacation.

Stunning property in private location near Glen Ellen restaurants/shops! We walked to the French bakery each morning and enjoyed the day by the pool with our young kids. The backyard pool and landscaping creates the perfect wine country atmosphere to relax and enjoy the company of friends and family. The property is overall kid-friendly, but if you have toddlers you may consider bringing your own plates/cups or disposable items for the trip as dinnerware is really nice Heath ceramic items. Property manager is very responsive.

Magical & Perfectly Located Home
This contemporary and comfortable home has it all and is perfectly located. The large open spaces and the layout of the bedrooms and accompanying bathrooms is ideal for gathering a group of 6. The bedrooms are well insulated - so not to worry about the snoring in the room next door. The outdoor space has a lot of seating and a great lap pool, resident blue birds and is absolutely beautiful. The grill and all of the kitchen utensils and tools are fabulous (and complete). The shops are within walking distance and the grocery has everything you need; a great meat selection for grilling and a nice veggie selection. Oh, and do not leave Glen Ellen without going to the French bakery La Pascals (Oh my - so good). There are several great restaurants if you don't want to cook. Glen Ellen is located perfectly between all of the winery areas; Yountville, St Helena, Napa, Sonoma and an easy drive to Healdsburg and Calistoga. Without exception, we all absolutely loved this home (and I would say that we have high expectations so believe me - it is fabulous).
