Charming, Well Located, 6.4 Acre Napa Valley Home with Views

We just returned from a long weekend in Napa with two other couples and this home is spectacular. Has everything you need and the environment surrounding the home is unbelievable. Quiet, calm and in the heart of a vineyard. Owners were terrific to work with and were very responsive when we had questions or needed things. Highly recommend this place and would absolutely stay here again!

We loved our stay in Napa Valley at the Rockin Ranch. Plenty of room both inside and outside to spend time together. The patio fireplace was a perfect ending to each day, while the pool served as a great gathering space for late afternoons with smells of lavender filling the air. And let’s not forget the cool mornings spent in the rocking chairs with a warm cup of coffee and hot air balloons rising in our view. I would highly recommend Rockin Ranch for your next visit to Napa. Nice location, well appointed and a perfect place to enjoy your friends.

I booked this house for a girls getaway. The house was absolutely amazing. When you drive up, it's very unassuming. You drive through vineyards and finally are welcomed to the house through a long driveway. First step in, SUPER CLEAN, vibrant, organized, modern. Stepping to the backyard, you have everything you could want / imagine. Again, super clean (perhaps fresh water) pool, hot tub, water slide, in ground trampoline, bocce ball with cute lights for night time ambiance, a garden, fireplace with outdoor seating, etc. In addition, the home is in a great location, in close proximity to most of my favorite wineries. Beyond the great house, the owner was super responsive to a couple questions and seemed really sweet. I will 100% be renting this house again. Thanks for a great stay!

Summary: OK house, nothing special; great location & outdoor space. I wouldn’t rent the property again – bad experience with the owner & the pool/hot tub were mostly not useable. Our stay was marred by a last-minute notification about issues with the pool/hot tub, a disagreement with the owner about compensation & because the owner is unwilling to engage in a discussion about the issue to come to an agreement. We rented this house for 5 days over the July 4th holiday based on its advertised heated pool & hot tub, size & location. I got notice from the owner 1 day prior to arrival that the pool heater was broken. The pool was supposedly warm (we found that not to be true) & the hot tub was not working. It would likely not be fixed during our stay. Due to character limits for this review, I won’t provide all details, but after telling us the heater would be fixed on the second day of our stay, it was not fixed until the last full day of our stay (giving us about ½ day with a working hot tub, the pool didn’t warm up much at all while we were there). Because the pool was pretty cold and we couldn’t use the hot tub to warm up & given we had rented the home based on the fact that a heated pool & hot tub were advertised, we requested a discount. The owner offered a refund of ~10%. I felt a refund closer to 25% was more appropriate. We went back & forth over the disagreement. I told her I would file a formal complaint with VRBO and did. She then withdrew her offer of any refund & said she only wanted to hear from me through VRBO going forward. I would never rent from this owner again. We didn’t seek a full refund, but a ~10% discount given the decline in the quality of the property due to the lack of a useable pool/hot tub was not adequate. The withdrawal of any refund offer once I told her of the formal complaint to VRBO is also troubling. She seems unwilling to discuss further. The home is fine, not special: Kitchen/living area & layout are nice; furnishings are a bit run down; bathrooms are small & not recently updated. For high cost of this property, I’d expect better. Great outdoor spaces & location. Front porch/backyard are well laid out; fun amenities. Although the weather was warm, because the pool was pretty cold, it was not pleasant to be in & we weren’t able to warm up in the hot tub. Instead of enjoying the outdoor areas, we spent a lot of time in a house that was just OK, & could have been anywhere in the world.

Thank you, thank you for having us at your beautiful home in Yontsville, CA. Our family made memories we will cherish forever. From trampoline jumping to bocce playing, there was no shortage of fun! We spent the hot afternoons diving in the pool and sipping wine on the patio, and the cool nights grilling & playing cards by the fireplace. The kitchen was well-equipped, which made it easy to cook and host family dinners. Located down the road from the quaint town of Yontsville, we enjoyed the fabulous local restaurants & nearby wineries. We will miss the views of the vineyards and sunsets. It was the perfect retreat to celebrate my parent’s 30th wedding anniversary with family & friends.

I love this house so much I want to buy it!!! Having grown up in Napa Valley, I am familiar with what makes a great wine country home. This place has got it all. Super centrally located among the vines with the dreamiest sunsets. Its the perfect set up for a low key, relaxing weekend in Napa Valley. Great kitchen, nice bedrooms and bathrooms, lots of space for everyone to spread out, yet still a cozy intimate feel. The backyard is to die for. The pool is EVERYTHING! Plus bocce and a trampoline and awesome grill/outdoor dining area. Truly everything I could have dreamed of. Lysa is a great host and really understands what wine country living is all about. Cheers!!! Michele

The house is just as it appears in the photos, but even better. What a beautiful and relaxing property, and a convenient central location. It was perfect for our group to spend mornings and evenings hanging on the porch and in the back yard, and easy travel for our visits to the vineyards and restaurants. We walked to Bouchon in Yountville in the mornings, and enjoyed the easy access to the walking/biking trail. Very well stocked, and we had everything we needed. Highly recommend it!

My daughter and I celebrated our birthday. This house was a true home. There was plenty of room for all eight of us. We loved that we had the ability to be together cook (kitchen has everything you need), drink wine, laugh and celebrate our birthday. The outside was amazing. Bocci ball, swimming pool. I watched the sunrise come up over the hill and the hot air balloons were being launched. Just truly a magical place. Lysa was wonderful to work with and we are truly grateful to have been able to stay in her home.

Came here with my husband and 3 adult children plus their significant others to celebrate my birthday. We had a great time and loved that we could all hang out together during our down time. The location is superb with it's proximity to Yountville. The house and the backyard are well appointed and you'll never run out of fun activities. Beautiful views from the front porch!

My husband & I love the Napa Valley & have been going there for many years. We recently stayed in this beautiful home for 4 days & highly recommend it for a family or big group. We usually stay at Meadowood or one of the other resorts in the area, but decided to stay here because our 2 daughters, their boyfriends & our nephew, all in their 20's, joined us for the long weekend. We were there for a wedding in St. Helena, but also wanted to relax, enjoy the valley & do some wine tasting. This turned out to be the perfect place for our group & we loved staying there. The property is tucked away in the middle of a vineyard & is quite spacious. The house itself is charming & comfortable & easily accommodated the 7 of us. We thoroughly enjoyed the large swimming pool, spa & outdoor fireplace in the back yard, as well as the numerous games & activities. It's in a great location, close to the restaurants & wineries in Yountville & an easy drive to both Napa & St. Helena. The owners, Lysa & John, were very helpful & easy to work with. I want to thank them for sharing their lovely home with us! We hope to come back soon!
