This vineyard was absolutely gorgeous. The house is in the middle of farm where other workers stay. We had our 2 families stay here with 4 adults and 4 kids. The kids loved the pool/hot tub and lounging outside/inside. The house was well stocked so that we wouldn't need much but food which we were super grateful for since we were only there for 1 week and wished more properties did this (such as TP, paper towels, bandaids, laundry detergent, etc). The house had plenty or rooms and an office to work. The beds were large and with 3 of us being over 6 feet this was extremely enjoyable. Heather and Kurt were extremely responsive and gave us warnings when crews were around. I loved that this was a working vineyard since I wake up with the kids at 6 and would hear the him of some tractors by 6:30. If you are sensitive to early morning noises, be warned that this is not going to be a location where you can sleep in. I loved it but we had 1 who didn't. We did order their charcuterie board so that upon arrival we wouldn't be hungry which was extremely helpful. Overall we had a great experience and would just mention that we had to sign an additional contract which wasn't mentioned in the description. Also not a big deal except that there was language on showing the property while we were there that we asked to have taken out and Kurt happily did. We just don't believe in showing a property when you are paying to vacation there and wanted our privacy.
The place was lovely, spacious and full of high quality details. The pool with the view of the vineyard was amazing, the downstairs living space open, lightfilled and spacious and the beds were high quality and comfortable. We all had a great time and I highly recommend this lovely place. It was worth the price for sure. It was a short drive to Johnson Beach and Healdsburg both. Made for a wonderful end of summer holiday.
The check in was awesome, management was fantastic and super responsive. It's a working ranch but still felt very private. The house was awesome and we had a really good time.
Everything about our stay was beautiful inside and out. We spoke about wanting to gather together yearly.
Great property, lives the pool!!!
If you're looking for an oasis, look no further! Staying at this beautiful place was just the thing that my fiancée and I needed for a getaway weekend, celebrating 10 years together. There's nothing like being in wine country with everything you need, at the place you're staying. This place also has the perfect balance of seclusion and easy access to get to restaurants, local grocery stores, and wineries. Incredible views of the forest and vineyards (from your hot tub too!), fire pit, board games, several restrooms (one with a steam shower!), jacuzzi tub, and enough room for a group. Kurt was also an incredibly hospitable and kind host as well. Upon arrival, he greeted us with a warm smile, and we received a quick tour from him personally. He was also incredibly responsive if we had any questions. I can't rave enough about this place and will absolutely recommend it to friends and family that come out to the area. My fiancée and I will definitely be back, thank you for everything Kurt!
This house & property were even more beautiful than the pictures. We thoroughly enjoyed the pool, hot tub and outdoor area. Absolutely beautiful views! The layout worked perfectly for our group of girl friends, we each had our own bedroom and plenty of space to spread out. The kitchen was huge and we ate a few meals out on the outdoor patio. We enjoyed walks a few times as well - very quiet area and it was fun to see and the different flowers & trees. Communication with Kurt was wonderful. I would definitely come back to this property!
Spent4 days at this spectacular ranch. Phenomenal views great amenities comfortable beds and everything you possibly need in the kitchen oh .... and delicious wine. We also had Lori cook a gourmet meal that was fabulous. Highly recommend having her cook for you or email and just prepare a welcome charcuterie platter that was out of this world. Kurt and Lori were gracious and very accommodating hosts. Truly beautiful and delightful. Would come back in a heartbeat.
Treat yourself to a stay at this amazing property! I would 100% recommend it to anyone without hesitation. The house and grounds are fabulous and the owner is the best host that I've ever rented with (and I've rented dozens of places over the years)!! Kurt truly went above and beyond the call of duty to make our family Christmas at his property one of our best holidays ever. He is a rock star and made sure that everything was perfect. The layout of the home is idea for a group, with a super spacious and cozy open floor plan that joins the living room, kitchen, and dining room in an ideal way, and there is a wonderful fireplace to boot! All the bedrooms are spacious and cozy and there are plenty of bathrooms. The home is well maintained and sparkling clean. Outside, the grounds are well cared for and I can't wait to go back during the warmer months when we can take advantage of that pool! It was also super fun to be situated in the middle of a working ranch and vineyard. It was great to see folks outside working on the ranch while still having plenty of privacy on the house grounds. Can't wait to come back!
