Set in the peaceful beauty of Sebastopol, CA, this spacious 3,500-square-foot wine country home offers comfort, fun, and relaxation in equal measure. Surrounded by redwood forests, open meadows, and nearby vineyards, it’s a private retreat where you can truly slow down and enjoy some of the best weather in the region.
**Outdoor Living•• The expansive patio and deck are perfect for gathering — complete with outdoor sofas, a barbecue, firepit, and multiple dining tables for long al fresco meals. The large 20′×40′ pool is great for laps or play, with plenty of inflatables and pool toys to keep everyone entertained. Relax on the property's multiple hammocks. After a swim, unwind in the spa, roast s’mores (supplies provided) around the firepit, and watch the stars fill the night sky. The fully enclosed yard gives children and dogs a safe space to play. Start your day on the covered front porch with coffee and hummingbirds, or use the binoculars to spot local wildlife in the trees.
**Inside Comforts•• The kitchen is stocked for serious cooks and casual snackers alike. You’ll find a KitchenAid mixer, blenders, a food processor, a panini machine, an espresso machine, a shaved ice maker, a popcorn popper, an electric fondue set, and even a hand-turned pasta machine. Pantry staples are included too — from oils and vinegars to spices, baking ingredients, and other essentials — so meal prep is easy and enjoyable. There are place settings for 12, plus plenty of large serving platters, bowls, and glassware for family feasts or casual poolside lunches.
**Entertainment for Everyone** Inside, the game room and shared spaces offer something for every mood. Play foosball, ping-pong, basketball, cornhole, or giant Jenga. Settle in for puzzles or board and card games of all kinds and for all ages. Try your hand at crafts at the dedicated craft table. Or just relax by the wood-burning stove with a good record spinning on the turntable, stream your favorite shows, or enjoy a movie night with freshly popped popcorn.
**Room to Relax** With multiple levels and plenty of space, everyone can find a cozy spot to unwind. Linens, towels, and a pack-’n-play are provided, so all you need to bring is your sense of adventure. Whether you’re soaking up the summer sunshine by the pool or getting cozy by the fire in winter, this Sebastopol getaway is a perfect place to reconnect, recharge, and make lasting memories with the people (and pets) you love most.

The house, location, grounds, everything is gorgeous. The house is well-maintained and wonderfully set up for guests. So many amenities and activities to enjoy!
This home is in a really beautiful private area. The backyard is really nice with the pool, hot tub and seating areas. The kitchen is fully stocked with every kitchen appliance you can think of and everything was very clean.
The place is great. Definitely felt welcoming and kid/family friendly. Lots of supplies and tools and toys for for eating and having a great time. No A/C upstairs was a real bummer. Was baking upstairs. But overall, great. Note that the management company — Vacasa — SUUUUUCKS tho. Not helpful, not informative, poor communication. (I asked to have the pool heated and they told me I needed to get an app to control the pool heater, without any instructions on how, but also charged me 200 per DAY! like what?! So yeah, good job on the house poor job on the management company.

Thank you so much for sharing your feedback. We are glad to hear that you found the home welcoming and family-friendly with plenty of supplies to enjoy your stay. However, We are truly sorry to hear about the discomfort caused by the lack of AC upstairs and the frustration you experienced with the pool heating and communication from our team.
Regarding the pool heat, we apologize for any confusion and the unexpected charges. Typically, pool heat requests need to be made at least 72 hours in advance to ensure proper setup, and we are sorry if this wasn’t clearly communicated. We understand how important clear instructions are, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Your feedback is invaluable, and we will be sure to share your concerns with our local team to help improve our guest experience. Thank you again for choosing Vacasa, and we hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a smoother experience in the future.
unfortunately no wine bottle opener - had to make a trip back into town to buy one. It's WINE country!!!
The as advertised fire pit - worked only about 5 minutes - the tank out of gas. Disappointed.
Beautiful home, and garden and pool area - quiet - I live in Santa Rosa so close and we loved it.

Beautiful home, terribel communication with VRBO and pool wasnt useable for over half the time we we
Im not even sure where to begin. There was a propane leak which we didnt find out until after 24 hrs we were there. The nest carbon monoxide alarms were going off at night, but didnt make any noise, they would go on anytime we would move in the beds so we just thought it was an annoying nigjt light. The pool top wouldnt open until after someone came to fic it FOR FIVE HOURS and we only ended up having 1, of the 3 days i rented the house to use it.the hot tub got warm finally on the last evening we were there. The other thing is the pool guy showed up un announced on a day he wasnt supposed to be there, he was very rude and strange. He wouldnt gwt out of the car and i had to tap on the windoe to get him to even talk to me. That was when we were all in our bikinis trying to actually finally enjoy the pool. Then i know this isnt the houses fault, but a ups truck with 2 men on the last night we were there, dropped off 2 HUGE boxes that were very heavy, infront of the gate! Side by side, totally blocking the obvious 4 cars in! I tried to talk to a manager and left many messages in the VRBO about the complaints and what the hell was going on with everything. I wanted some sort of refun for everything. It took 3 days AFTER we left the house to finally talk to someone and after 2 hrs on the phonr i got a a partial refund. And upon further inspection of reviews we saw this wasnt the first complaint of the propain tank leak. It was a very beautiful house but ive been using VRBO and for

Thank you for sharing your feedback. While we’re glad you found the home beautiful, we’re sorry to hear some aspects of your stay did not meet expectations. For clarity, the Google Nest smoke alarms were functioning properly. The nightlight feature was disabled at your request, and we demonstrated that the alarms remained fully operational. Please note that Google Nest alarms cannot be disabled in the presence of smoke or carbon monoxide. After a full inspection, no propane or gas leaks were detected. We take all safety concerns very seriously, which is why the matter was professionally investigated for your peace of mind. As a goodwill gesture, we issued a refund to acknowledge the inconvenience with the pool equipment and communication delays. Our team also made multiple attempts to assist during and after your stay. We welcome constructive feedback, as it helps us address concerns appropriately and inform future guests. Thank you again for staying with us, and we wish you all the best in your future travels.
