Wonderful property to host a birthday party with family!!! Fit my group of 16 excellently. The house was beautiful, the grounds were exquisite, and there was plenty of room and activities. Completely stocked with everything you could need — plenty of cooking supplies, dishes, cookware, Tupperware, spices, board games, outdoor games, indoor & outdoor towels, etc. Enough for a private chef! Great charcoal grill & smoker as well, plus a separate beverage refrigerator. Hot tub was a great touch. Fruit trees (lemon, orange, plumcot) on the property to pick from too!! Only wish we had spent more time on the property! Will definitely be back again.

Excellent spacious layout for groups, inside and out. One of the best stocked kitchens we’ve seen — perfect for those big family meal plans. (maybe bring your own knives and just have patience with the oven display) Beautiful grounds (with disc golf!) and well maintained hot tub with plenty of towels. Downstairs great for kids and cold preference sleepers downstairs.

The property is absolutely beautiful. The kitchen is well-appointed, with many cooking supplies and appliances. The beds are very comfortable and the bathrooms are well designed. Outdoor landscape design is accessible and there are many game options within the house. Everything was very clean.However, communication with the host was painful. He was unresponsive to messages through the VRBO app and demanded information via phone on the day prior to check-in. Though his communication was professional throughout, I did not find it hospitable, accommodating, or even kind. The stress of engaging with him weighed on the weekend.

Perfect place

This house is amazing and our stay was fabulous. Clean and well supplied, beautiful grounds and very comfortable bedding.The showers are a bit difficult but other than that the place is fabulous.The time of check in did change from the 11:00 listed on VRBO to 4:00 and then the instructions on the day of arrival changed in to 5:00.

Had a great time at the property. The outdoor area was really well done, lots of activities and a large hot tub. The inside had plenty of space and an open floor plan that accommodated our large group and let us all hang out together. George was very responsive and had great attention to detail. Would definitely stay here again.

Amazing location close to many activities!

The home was amazing for 13 people and very clean! It had everything we needed, such as comfortable beds, towels, kitchen items, and outdoor games. The geographical location was really great as it was only 17 minute drive to Santa Rosa but was closely located to many vineyards and the downtown area. Check-in was simple and the binder all the necessary details about the home. Thank you for this amazing home.

Great time in wine country!

We booked The Lone Palm as a homebase for my wife’s 40th birthday celebration in wine country with a group of 18 friends. George the owner was very communicative the whole way, and the property is absolutely wonderful. We enjoyed the hot tub, the short distance from Sebastopol proper, and did spur trips to multiple wineries, breweries, and natural points of interest. Bedroom accommodations and home amenities were excellent, and we would definitely book again and couldn’t recommended more!

Company Leadership Planning

We are a completely remote company who brings our leadership team together every quarter for a planning offsite! The home was a perfect size for our team and had lots of meeting spaces. We loved the deck for morning sunrise yoga and had a great time unwinding in the hot tub during the evenings😍. Also that walking/biking trail down the road was so beautiful.

Great House for a large Group!

This property is excellent for a larger group. There is plenty of room and it is layed out very well. The outdoor space is gorgeous. There are plenty of activities at the house and in the surrounding area. The host was very easy to communicate with and the rules of the house/ check out process was very easy. I cannot recommend this house enough. I had a large group for a week and it was so relaxing and easy.

Overall we had a wonderful stay. The house is in a beautiful location and has a wonderful outdoor space and hot tub. The house had plenty of space for our group of 10 adults and 3 kids. Check out process was a bit more laborious than your typical VRBO rental. There were some minor issues with communication - the address on VRBO did not match the address given to me by the host, but it turns out they both take you to the same place. I had a difficult experience with customer service when I reached out with a question about this booking - they were not able to find my booking because it is an external booking (not managed by VRBO). It was not clear that this was not managed through VRBO when I made the booking, so this caused some confusion.

Reunion of Old Friends --perfect place for us

The landscaping is beautiful, room set up good for us, and the kitchen supplied with all we need. We ran out of towels and toilet paper pretty quickly --had to do laundry and shop. The first few days were terribly hot and not having air conditioning was difficult. We loved watching the woodpecker colony! Overall, we love this place. It was our second stay and did not disappoint. Thank you

The Perfect Spot

Visited the Russian River with about a dozen friends and cannot say enough about how great Lone Palm was for our group. Beautiful grounds, spacious house with plenty of rooms and beds, a well appointed kitchen and plenty of grilling tools outside. We also took advantage of the property’s proximity to Sebastopol by walking into town on the bike bath every morning. Can’t imagine a better home base for a weekend of tasting Pinots. Owner was communicative and helpful in all interactions, but they also left us alone and let us enjoy their home. Highly recommended.

A nice home but the owner was kind of mid

My wife’s father passed away unexpectedly and our family decided to have a celebration of life at George’s house in Sebastopol. We wanted to check in a few hours earlier than the 5pm check in time (extremely late compared to many other vrbos I’ve booked) and asked the owner if we could. He stated we could but we would be charged an hourly rate to do so. For a weekend stay this place is already quite expensive so being charged another 10% on that to check in at a reasonable hour felt like getting nickel and dimed. The fee is annoying but if it was delivered with empathy I’d accept it but instead I was told we were lucky to even have had the opportunity to stay at his home in the first place. There was no compassion for our loss, no kind words or even condolences and this was the last thing I wanted to think about given how grief-stricken everyone was. One of the party did leave something and the owner was kind enough to get it back to us so that was helpful and saved him a star. Overall, I’d recommend looking elsewhere.

Please read all of the other reviews. People love the property. Xialong fabricated his review. Xiaolong wanted to Check In at 11am, we had to rearrange the cleaners schedule to accommodate this (most hotels charge a half day rate, we only charged a quarter day rate for a six hour early Check In) When we explained our rates he became irate, started yelling and hung up the phone. He then called back and said he wanted to Check In early but that he was going to give us a negative review unless we waived the early Check In charge. Our prices are very competitive for the number of people we can sleep, the size of the property and the value we deliver. Xiaolong was a nightmare guest, we would not rent to him again. But we are professional and mailed back some personal items one of his guests left behind in the house at no charge (we paid the shipping)

30th birthday trip

This was a trip that me and my friends have been planning and looking forward to for so long and omg was it the best trip ever! This house was absolutely perfect for our group! Plenty of beds and rooms and bathrooms for our group of 14 (7 couples). It was so clean and spacious. Plenty to do at the house! They have bikes, cornhole, hot tub, foosball, etc. We actually spent a decent amount of time at the house to hang out and we were never bored. We even had plenty of space and the kitchen was big enough to have a private chef come in one night! (Which I highly recommend. It was so fun and delicious) There's nothing to complain about the house. One thing I would just say to keep in mind if you go here is that ubers/lyfts were not the easiest to get so if you need one just allow yourself ample time to order one. And definitely do not rely on them to get to and from wineries. We rented buses both days and it worked out so well and was definitely worth the money! The house was so close to the town of Sebastopol which was so so nice and there were so many good restaurants and breweries to do in town. And also close to the grocery store which was helpful! Would recommend having at least one rental car. And there was also a cute market/coffee shop in walking distance (about a 10-15 min walk so not bad at all!) They had good coffee, matcha, smoothies, etc. Everything was perfect!!

Great Location Unpleasant Experience with Owner

The property is large with a spacious yard amazing hot tub & location Unfortunately the negatives outweighed the positives The check in was unsettling as it required I text my license to the owner Upon arrival I was told to read the rule book. My group would have never had any issues with the rules but are not disclosed ahead of time. Rules included, $20 per cigarette found, quiet after 10, noise complaint you will be kicked out no refund, no amplified music outside at any time, if any leaves are in the hot tub you will be charged $185, charged $175 if cornhole is left outside The 2nd night I got a text from him stating he was going put covers over plants bc of the temp which would be no problem. However in a house of all 30+ yo girls it was very uncomfortable having a man walking around at night on the property. The girls left the spa for obvious reasons It was clear the visit was to count people & check noise. When outside he commented on indoor decorations which was clear he was watching us inside The next day I got a text stating he counted 10 cars & questioned how many people were there He sent another text re: decorations/cleaning/rules He returned to the house the next day & spent the majority of his time staring at us/inside Our final day he text me again about the rule book. I booked a house for a large amount of $ to have the property to ourselves. Instead we were micromanaged, uncomfortable, & not able to relax for even 1 full day.

Please read Elizabeth’s review, she stayed for a whole week (after Lauren’s group) and loved the place. This review was not written by Lauren, it was written by a disgruntled person in her group. We have over 40+ reviews and have never had anyone complain about privacy. Her rambling review is full of fabrications and misrepresentations. They were not charged anything extra. We had a rare cold front come through that delivered snow to the mountains nearby and there was a freeze warning for plants. I texted Lauren that it was going to freeze on Friday and that I wanted to swing by and cover a few delicate plants with blankets to protect them from the frost so they wouldn't die. She replied “No problem. I totally understand” It took me only 10 minutes to put up the blankets. Unfortunately, Lauren forgot to tell everyone in her group that I would be outside for a few minutes. When I removed the blankets the following afternoon (which took 5 minutes) one of the ladies in her group, lost it and started yelling at me that I shouldn't be here. I explained to her that Lauren approved it and apologized that she was not made aware. Their reservation was for 4 days and 3 nights. I was there for a total of 15 minutes during their stay to put up and remove the plant blankets. Our landscaper does an incredible job, it would have been a shame to let some of his favorite plants die from the frost.

Nice Stay in Sebastopol

Very comfortable home for a large group. The kitchen was very well stocked with cooking utensils and appliances. beds were very comfortable. The downstairs rooms (2nd living area and 2 BRs) don't get as much heat in cold weather, but we lived primarily on the main floor, and just slept under the heavy quilts downstairs. Some of the plumbing fixtures are showing a bit of age, but most everything worked fine. We had a blast playing cornhole during cocktails every afternoon!

Magical Property

What a magical property! The grounds are absolutely stunning with lots of fun activities. My friends spent hours playing frisbee golf, corn hole, and board games under the trees. You'll likely get to meet the neighborhood dog, Zeus who comes to visit and is very friendly. I absolutely recommend this property.
