1-acre Private Backyard with Large Pool

Glen Ellen getaway 1 hour from the Golden Gate Bridge. The indoor/outdoor format allows you to flow back and forth between climate controlled comfort and swimming in the large custom in-ground pool (not heated), lounging on the deck, perusing the flower gardens, picking fresh produce from the garden in the back, lawn games or bocce, al fresco dining and refreshments on the deck, decompressing in the hot tub, or just letting the warm sunshine wash over you in one of the chaise loungers until you enter a Zen-like state. Spacious indoors and out, a dining room and two large common rooms with masonry fireplaces offer gathering places to relax and wind down after a full day with a meal and fire.

We are located in the heart of Sonoma Valley wine country. Several wineries are walkable, and dozens more are within a 10 minute drive. Hiking, biking, and picnicking in Sonoma Valley Regional Park, as well as guided nature walks in Bouverie Wildflower Preserve, are both a mile away. Charming downtown Glen Ellen is 1.5 miles down a country lane. The entrance to Jack London State Park and amazing hiking, picnicking, and historic buildings are two miles away; guided horseback riding is also available. The renowned Sonoma town square is 7.5 miles down Highway 12. Glen Ellen and Sonoma both offer great restaurants, Sonoma a wider selection. Your spirit of adventure will be met in full by the world class recreational activities at your fingertips.

The house itself is remodeled with abundant light from skylights, picture windows, and sliding glass doors. Almost every room has views of the lush, private back yard with extensive lawn, mature trees, and flowers in bloom most of the year. The house has 3 full baths including an en-suite master bath.

peaceful location, close to several towns and wineries
The home is located in a quiet and safe neighborhood. It is an easy 5 minute drive to Glen Ellen and 10-15 minutes to Sonoma. We spent a day in Healdsburg as well (highly recommend the French bakery there!). There is a master with bath on the main floor and 3 additional bedrooms upstairs sharing a bath. There is also a room with twin beds off the living room. The house was clean. The kitchen was well-stocked, and we cooked several meals during our stay. The backyard is lovely and private.

Five stars, absolutely above and beyond
I booked this stay for my best friend’s bachelorette trip, six people total. The home was outfitted with everything we needed to luxuriate and was perfectly close to Sonoma and many wineries. We spent most of the time poolside near the huge pool and in the hot tub. We felt so rested, it is a perfect home. Robert left detailed instructions and was responsive to any question we had, he went above and beyond and left a bottle of bubbles chilled in the fridge for us so we could toast our arrival (for a charge and by request of course). We would not hesitate to book again next time we visit wine country, this listing has it all!!

Better than the photos!
This house met our needs perfectly even as a large group of 9. We all commented on the beds and bedding being comfy, and the upstairs bathroom is set up great for sharing with two vanities. Multiple seating areas with comfy couches and beautiful outdoor area, fully stocked kitchen supplies for cooking. Host responded immediately even at 9:30pm about issue with hot tub that was quickly resolved. There were even extra pool floaties and an air machine to fill them. Would definitely recommend for a group gathering either with kids or adults!

Wonderful Wanderings
Our family of 10: 5 adults ranging from 56-88 and 5 adults ranging from age 21-30 found great comfort in this beautiful home and on the property. The kitchen is INCREDIBLY well supplied (spices and pots and pans, plenty of dishes, cutlery and glasses for indoor and outdoor use. There are plenty of pool towels and pool floats and chairs around the beautiful pool. It is a gorgeous property to wander and explore. There are lots of birds including a family of quail. There are lots of hang out spaces. This is an ideal home for a large gathering. The neighborhood is full of beautiful homes and beautifully landscaped yards- its a treat to wander through the neighborhood. Downtown Sonoma, with fabulous restaurants, in less than 1/2 an hour away and there are more wineries in the vicinity than any group could reasonably visit in a month. There are a couple wineries very close- including Loxton where 8 of our 10 were able to just walk in without reservations and the tasting fee was applied to the cost of a bottle (or 2 or 6) of wine. Their port is exceptionally good. We ate incredible meals that we prepared in the kitchen and while there is much to do beyond the house it is a wonderful house and yard in which to just disappear from the world for awhile.

By far one of the best rentals I’ve ever stayed in. Plenty of space, lots of activities (hot tub, pool, bocce, game cabinet, just to name a few). Comfortable beds, clean bathrooms, ample parking, and close to all the wine you could ever want! Rob was a great host and communicated great!

Good stay
We rented the house as three families with kids. The house was spacious and provided good accommodations for our stay. We enjoyed spending time in the hot tub and took advantage of the wood burning fireplace. The house is very well stocked for kids, there's a whole lot of toys, games, pack n' play, feeding chair, and kids plates. That makes the stay with kids so much easier. The kitchen was generally really well stocked and has everything needed to cook. Everything in the kitchen is nice and it looks newly renovated. There were some pretty minor things we didn't like about the place: the heating system is uneven with the upstairs bedrooms staying rather chilly when the rest of the house is warm, the shower has a low-flow showerhead (though it's a fancy big one, there's just not enough water!), and some parts of the house feel a bit older/worn. However, overall it was a great stay. The location and the property are amazing and we generally enjoyed our stay! Would definitely recommend this place.

This place was perfect for our group. The house has a nice layout that works well for family / friend get togethers: multiple living rooms, fully equipped gourmet kitchen, very good indoor outdoor connection, lots of amenities (pool, hot tub, bocce ball court). Location is also very good - quiet neighborhood, wineries within walking distance from the house, 5 min drive to grocery store, restaurants and bakery in Glen Ellen. We really enjoyed our stay.

My family (3 adult couples plus 2 grandchildren ) gathered for several days before my sons wedding at a local vineyard. The home is well equipped, the property is wonderfully maintained and the pool provided entertainment for all. The collection of scooters was such a treat for the 6 and 3 yo.

Relaxing in Sonoma
This was a great house for family to gather during my son’s wedding in Sonoma. The house is well laid out to accommodate a large group very comfortably and the beds are comfortable too. We loved the outdoor spaces and the large pool was enjoyed by all ages. Overall the house was very clean, but the pool area could have used a sweep and the pool chairs were a little bit dirty. We used towels over them so not a problem. Overall everyone had a great time!
