This vacation home places you 11.4 mi (18.4 km) from Fort Ross State Historic Park. The vacation home includes a private pool, a kitchen, and a fireplace.
Perfect for weddings and elopements, corporate retreats, family reunions, wellness retreats, and milestone celebrations. Forest Villa hosts its own signature events and is fully equipped to support yours. Whether you're gathering 8 or 18, the estate adapts to your vision.
Nestled within 730 acres of ancient redwood forest and rolling hills in Cazadero, West Sonoma County, Forest Villa is one of California's most extraordinary private estates — a solar-powered sanctuary where breathtaking natural beauty meets architectural grandeur.
The Manor House is a masterwork of craftsmanship. Soaring vaulted ceilings, artist-made clay walls, hand-hewn timber beams, and an octagonal glass atrium blur the line between inside and out. Six fireplaces throughout the home create an atmosphere of warmth and seclusion no matter the season, with stunning views of Austin Creek State Recreation Area at every turn.
The crown jewel of the Manor House is an octagonal all-glass conservatory housing a sunken jacuzzi — a one-of-a-kind architectural space where you soak surrounded by forest views through floor-to-ceiling windows and a soaring glass ceiling. A wood-burning fireplace completes this private sanctuary. A saltwater wading pool just outside offers a unique forest bathing experience.
The home accommodates up to 18 guests across 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms: a master king suite, 3 queen bedrooms, a two-twin bedroom, and The Bunkhouse with 8 twin beds — ideal for kids, teens, or larger groups. Every bedroom is thoughtfully appointed for comfort and privacy.
The professional-grade kitchen is built to host. With full commercial capacity, a pellet grill, and modern appliances throughout, it's a chef's dream. The formal dining room seats the full group of 18, with additional capacity for larger gatherings — perfect for wedding dinners, holiday feasts, or corporate events.
Step outside and 730 acres open up before you. Explore old-growth redwood groves, open meadows, and miles of private trails. Encounter our resident Watusi cattle and horses roaming freely across the land. Multiple wood-burning fire pits invite evenings under some of the darkest skies in Northern California — ideal for stargazing with zero light pollution and no neighbors in sight. The entire property runs on solar power — off-grid luxury at its most intentional.
Additional amenities include a billiards room, high-speed WiFi throughout the Manor House, and multiple indoor and outdoor entertainment areas.
