About this property

Updated Vintage Farmhouse -- walking distance to stores, dining & wine tasting

Enjoy a leisurely walk to the town of Boonville for morning coffee at the Mosswood Café, the Farmer's Market or dinner at the Lauren’s Pub or the Boonville Hotel from the charming Tolman House, located approx. 1/2mile south of town on Highway 128.
The Tolman House was built in the late 1800's. The 3 -bedroom, 2-bath house boasts a large lot with a lawn and picnic/barbeque area and completely fenced outdoor space. It is dog friendly. (max 2dogs).There is one king bed, one queen bed, one double bed, central heating and air, a full kitchen with a dining nook, living room and a sunny banquette seating area. One bathroom is new and modern, with a shower, while the other is original, with a claw foot bathtub, located off the master bedroom. The house is the perfect size for two or three couples or a family. It sleeps 6 people.

The Tolman House is superbly located as a base for exploring Anderson Valley and the Mendocino Coast. It is within 300 ft. of 2 wine tasting rooms and Pennyroyal goat cheese farm/tasting and 1/2 mile from dining, shopping, and a microbrewery. In 15 minutes you can be hiking among the redwoods in Hendy Woods State Park. Drive 30 minutes to the Navarro beach or 50 minutes to the picturesque village of Mendocino. Another 15 minutes and you can be at Ft. Bragg--catching The Skunk Train or looking for treasures at Glass Beach. You can also just relax at the picnic table and gaze at the hills of Anderson Valley and the Pinot Noir grapevines that surround you.

**The Tolman House is only available for rent to Foursight Wines club members during the annual Anderson Valley Pinot Noir Festival, usually held the third weekend in May.

Just Right for Anderson Valley

Four cousins stayed 2 nights as part of a week long trip to taste wines in Sonoma. The location gave us a full day to enjoy four wineries and one brewery.

An Anderson Valley Gem

Comfort, Privacy, Space, Rural Setting, Accessibility to some of the finest wines in the world, unrivaled views and fine people. The Toleman House offers a lovely place to enjoy Anderson Valley, one of California's most beautiful places. The residence was perfect for pets, specifically a pet friendly pup with livestock( sheep!) It was a joy to briefly reside in a space that shared familial history and artifacts. Spotless and comfortable.

Winter in Boonville

Staying at this property was very interesting. It is accurately described in the online listing and as it turns out, is the oldest residence in Anderson Valley. It's like staying in Grandma's house, cozy and vintage.

Our entire experience was fantastic. The bed was so comfortable, the claw foot tub was crucial, and the living room was a sweet space to decompress. I really loved the 2 tone lilacs! I can’t wait to stay again!
