Santa Rosa, California
The Acorn House cottage is located approximately one hour north of San Francisco on scenic Highway 12 in Kenwood. It is a peaceful retreat on four private acres. Your hosts, Bev and Jerry Stemach, invite you to turn down their country lane, and indulge yourself in this charming vacation rental nestled among ancient oaks and grapevines in the heart of the Sonoma wine valley.
Acorn Cottage is generously appointed: shelves of books and movies, private hot tub and patio, and a bottle of petit verdot made from grapes grown on our property. If you are inclined to explore, an array of exciting activities are minutes away: hiking in mountains or along coastal beaches, golfing on nearby courses, dining in restaurants in Kenwood, Glen Ellen, and Sonoma, and wine tasting through Sonoma County's 13 viticulture regions. Napa Valley is just over the hill.
Private parking for one car.

Amazing property with extremely gracious and generous hosts. Quiet, clean, private hot tub for a reasonable price. Will definitely stay there again ?
Count yourself lucky to be able to stay at this private, vineyard cottage in the best part of Sonoma wine country. Kenwood has its own stunning vineyard estates nearby and is an easy drive to Sonoma town center as well as within easy range to the Russian River Valley, Napa, the Pacific coast, and more. Bev and Jerry are the most gracious hosts; inviting us for wine and accompaniments in their private cellar for great conversation as well as area recommendations. Those being where to go for tastings and other adventures such as the Armstrong Redwoods and the Jack London estate. They even provided us with a great packing box for travelling back with our wine; and we filled it :-) The property itself is basically your own private vineyard Acorn Cottage with wildlife, on beautifully landscaped grounds. A very unique setting. Looking forward to a return stay. Thank you Bev and Jerry.
Beautiful, clean and accomodating! Our hosts keep a very lovely and well thought out rental! Complete with welcome snacks and wine from their own vineyard! We would 100% stay on this property again as it was homey, quiet and peaceful.
This is more of an experience than a rental property. Acorn Cottage was accurately described and the perfect size and privacy for two. There a several Sonoma wineries within 5-10 minutes and Napa Valley a nice 35 minute drive through the mountains. Jerry and Bev were great host and we look forward to coming back.
Beautiful property/accommodations, private, quiet, well stocked amenities, attention to detail throughout, and the most friendly/gracious/generous/knowledgeable hosts we have ever experienced. We will definitely be looking for availability in our schedules to come again!
We had a fantastic stay at the acorn house. The place is beautiful and immaculate. The grounds were gorgeous and we used the awesome hot tub day and night. By far the best VRBO I’ve stayed. Bev and Gerry we amazing hosts as well. We’ll be back!
Acorn cottage was amazing 10/10 from us. Bev and Jerry are delightful. Very knowledgeable about the area. Go above and beyond any place we’ve stayed before. I felt like I was on a retreat.
From the moment we arrived, Bev and Jerry took great care of us! From the homemade banana bread, to the wine, cheese and other goodies left for us, we couldn't have asked for more. The property is stunning in its location and landscaping. Very private and secure.
We had a great time and enjoyed our stay. The property was beautiful and the hosts were amazing. We'd love to come back.
The Acorn House is a lovely cottage and the hosts were exceptional. They were very accommodating and generous, including leaving us a Marin cheese and crackers, homemade banana bread, wine, beer and bottled water. The hot tub was great and the property is private and secluded.
Our stay at Acorn House was a wonderful, relaxing retreat in a beautiful setting with the most welcoming hosts we’ve ever had. The property is beautiful and very private. The cottage is so cozy and comfortable, and there is a lovely view of the 500-year old oak tree from the living room. We enjoyed an evening in the hot tub under the full moon. We had dinners at the Salt and Stone restaurant just down the road, which we highly recommend. Thank you Jerry and Bev for making our stay so special. We’ll be back!
This cottage is all you need to step back and relax. Bev and Jerry have been so thoughtful in making the experience a time to recharge. We enjoyed getting to know them. The giant oaks and beautiful gardens are a setting made to help you unwind.
The property is on 4 acres of immaculately kept property/vineyards/Cottage in Kenwood between Santa Rosa and Sonoma. The hosts treated us like family/best friends. UNPRECEDENTED - We were welcomed with a time of wine and hors d’ouevers to get to know our hosts when we arrived. I am encouraged to “pay forward” their hospitality to all people that God sends our way.
What a great property. Just as advertised. Close to great eating and wineries. We wish we had stayed longer. Bev & Jerry are the perfect hosts. The hot tub was well used and private. The home was stocked with wine, some munchies and drinks. The grounds and inside were in perfect condition. We will be back!!!
Acorn House is a beautiful escape! The peaceful grounds and clean, well-appointed cottage make for an ideal visit. Bev and Jerry are friendly hosts and you may even have the chance to sample wine made from the vineyard outside the cottage. Acorn House is an idea base for adventures in Sonoma, Marin, or even Napa. Stop looking and book it now!
The Acorn House isn't just a property... it is an experience! Everything about our time here exceeded our expectations! It's located in a perfect central location for day trips to everything that wine country, the coast, and northern California has to offer. Bev and Jerry are the most gracious of hosts! They really are doing this right and you will see that in all the special details and thought that goes into everything they do for their guests! This was perfect for our 20th wedding anniversary getaway. We will forever cherish the memories!
The cottage and attention to detail both inside and out is incredible and still amazed at the landscaping around the property. Beverly and Jerry were great hosts and went above and beyond helping us navigate the area, activities etc. Would highly recommend and looking forward to going back in the future.
Delight… that feeling of finding a place that is more beautiful than the pictures, more comfortable than the descriptions, and more hospitable than we could have imagined. From the first day, we began calling the Cottage ‘home’. Our hosts we wonderful, accommodating, and gave great advice and suggestions for restaurants, wineries, and places to see. We’d like to suggest a rating of more than 5 stars for this one!
Great hosts! We enjoyed the gardens and hummingbirds on the property. Very comfortable house. Ditto the other 5 star reviews!
Acorn House exceeded our expectations. Private, quiet relaxing vacation rental with a ton of charm. Bev and Jerry go above and beyond to insure you enjoy your Sonoma stay. Especially the many little touches like robes and slippers, local cheese and crackers, drinks in the fridge and a bottle of their wine. Hot tub, gardens, vineyards and bird watching outside. Clean, well provisioned and comfortable inside. Close to many great wineries. Would definently return.
The Acorn Cottage was the perfect home base for a week exploring the Napa and Sonoma Valleys. The cottage was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen was fully equipped to prepare our own meals as needed. Bev and Jerry are terrific hosts. The gave us wine, cheese and crackers upon arrival and invited us for wine and snacks one evening. The location was ideal for winery tours, hiking, and an easy drive to the coast. We loved it!
