Lovely place. The backyard/deck was a great place to spend time. We had our dog with us and it was a comfortable. The house was very clean and the kitchen was well stocked with dishes and appliances. The primary bedroom was a great size but the second bedroom was on the small side. Time as responsive and helpful.

Perfect gathering for old friends

Sweet cottage and tiny adu tucked amongst Redwoods, next to a creek. Very well equipped kitchen, comfy beds, and a lovely covered area with heaters in the back. We mostly spent our time at the house--it was so pleasant!

This was a gem of a property! A very nicely renovated 1947 home welcomed us for our gals birthday celebration wine week. Warm and cozy with all the amenities. The kitchen has everything you need. Nice coffee maker greeted us each morning. The deck under the redwood trees is comfortable and magical! The neighborhood is very quiet in the evenings. The town of Healdsburg is close by and adorable. Lots of shops and fabulous restaurants. Many wineries nearby. Tim is a great host, quick to respond to any communication, friendly and helpful. I would return to this gem in a heartbeat.

Delightful and convenient!

A great secluded location with a great deck (we are outside nearly every night). Plenty of parking and very close to downtown Healdsburg, while being "in the woods" - we had deer wander across the drive! Even if it was hot during the day, it cools off at night and the house stayed cool and comfortable.

Great creekside house.

This is a fantastic house and location. Easy 10 minute drive to the Healdsburg plaza, and central to numerous wineries. We have never stayed at a rental with such state of the art features and high end kitchen wares. Wonderful back yard, fenced among the large trees and with a pergola with seating. Creek running alongside the house. Will definitely stay here the next visit to Healdsburg.

Fantastic stay!

The cottage was adorable, the location was perfect and the outdoors areas were delightful. I can't imagine there was anything not available the kitchen, the bed was supportive with just the right amount of blankets (hint: leave the windows in the house open during the night: the woodland creature noises, the creek and a light breeze were sleep inducing) and the living room was super comfy for reading and chatting. The outdoor spaces were truly breath taking in comfort and being one with nature - one of our favorites! It was a 5 minute drive to Healdsburg, with plenty of fun places to eat and have a glass of wine, shop and enjoy being away. I highly recommend, you won't be sorry.

A real gem - we can't wait to return

This is a really great place! The first thing you notice when you arrive is that this inviting home (actually a full home and separate cottage with its own bathroom) is nestled in a grove of ginormous redwood trees that tower above it. The ample parking lot is nicely lit by strings of lights at night and the large front porch is inviting with its Adirondack chairs. Inside you will see the attention to detail in the new mid-century modern décor theme. The kitchen is well-appointed and features new appliances that make cooking an enjoyable experience. And it was important (and surprising) to us that there is a gourmet coffee machine. The two fireplaces (one in the dining/living room and the other in the larger bedroom) give it a cozy feeling. The back patio is truly unique and features a large pergola under the redwoods. It is close to various amenities but has a remote feeling. It’s only ten minutes to Safeway and close to many wineries but has a feeling of being at the end of the road. We cannot wait to return!

About the host

Hosted by Tim Irvin

Host profile image
Hi, I'm Tim. I live in San Francisco full-time but enjoy escaping to the Wine Country or the Mountains as often as possible. I have been a vacation rental host for nine years, and this is a newer property for me. I hope you enjoy this serene getaway as much as I do.

Why they chose this property

I love how peaceful this location is, nestled in a redwood grove. The creek flowing through the property is so relaxing. I especially appreciate how close it is to Healdsburg, yet it feels like a million miles away.

What makes this property unique

This property is a one-of-a-kind gem, especially the peaceful outdoor space. The back is generally shady and cool among the redwoods, and the front porch is usually sunny and warm—take your pick.
