Swimming Pool - as of October 2020 we installed a gas heater so pool is heated year round to about 80 degrees. During the winter we can heat the pool to 90 degrees for an additional $50 per day. It's truly a spectacular experience to swim in pool that warm and we hope you consider that option for your stay!

In the summer we use solar panels for heating the pool. Pool is only heated during the daytime.

Pool Cover - as of December 2020 we installed an automatic pool cover. The cover helps the pool retain heat at night or when it's not in use. It's also a great safety feature for families traveling with children.

High speed broadband Internet. We have a Google mesh wifi network so Internet connection is fast even outside in the backyard.

We enjoyed our stay and absolutely loved the pool! The neighborhood was quaint and quiet and close to grocery stores, shopping and wineries. The house was just a little more worn than in the pictures (carpets throughout could use a refresh) but comfortable and well stocked. We would stay there again and especially loved the pool in the backyard which was pretty and private.

Great stay for groups!

We had a great stay here. It worked perfectly for our group of 5 ladies as long as you don’t mind sharing a room (worked well for us!) The pool was a fun break between wine tasting and dinner. Booking was easy and exactly as advertised. Check out process was simple and the host was even willing to mail us a pair of earrings that got left behind. Thanks for a great stay!

Cute Sonoma Cottage

This was a great cottage close enough to bike to the Sonoma Square. Perfect for families. It was comfortable with room to dine in or outside by the pool. The owner was easy to communicate with and had some household items sent ahead of our stay. Check in & out were seamless and it was an easy turnkey stay.

Girl trip to wine country

Four women traveling to experience wine country. We had a nice stay as the house location is close to Sonoma Square shopping, grocery stores and wineries. The hosts were quick to respond to any questions we had and they checked to make sure our arrival went smoothly. Accommodations were satisfactory although the white woodwork and kitchen cupboards could use a good general scrubbing. That said, we enjoyed the fact that we could stay together and enjoy each others company in such a lovely location.

Very thorough communication

This is my first actual VRBO rental and I thought it was great. I stayed with my cousins and sister so there was 7 of us total. The home was the perfect size for all of use to celebrate my sister's relaxing Bachelorette weekend and I appreciated all the thorough communication from Michelle and Rohin. Although the weather and our plans did not give time for the heated pool it was still great to know it was an option and ready for use. I would love to bring my children and stay here again.

Location

Beening close to the center of town was amazing, if you are looking for peace and quite, forget it. First they need to added blackout curtains in the bedrooms, also they say the pool is heated, well if you don't live in Florida, you might be fine woth 80 degrees, my pool at home is set at 85, if you want the pool set to 90 degrees they want to charge 50.00 bucks more a day. The neighbor also has a dog, that barks right next to the master bedroom early in the morning, and they also decide to do some construction . If you like to watch different things on the TV, forget that too. There is only 1 TV. The fireplace doesn't work, why show a picture of a fireplace that doesn't work! We enjoyed going into town but the stay was rough. Last but not least, I found it odd they want you to pump the water off the pool cover if it rains. We were there for a vacation, not to babysit a pool cover.

About the host

Hosted by Michelle Ruettinger

Host profile image
We are a family who loves to have adventures that involve traveling & eating. And we enjoy sharing our favorites spots in the Bay Area with friends and family when they come to visit, especially those with good food (anything with noodles or coffee!) and good music. We have been regular VRBO users for years and are looking forward to being hosts.

What makes this property unique

Going for a refreshing swim after a day at the wineries is the ultimate relaxation. Then strolling to the square for a nice dinner is a great way to spend your night. Centrally located for ease of biking around. We created a comfortable space for friends and family to enjoy each other's company, like we do with ours.
