Glen Ellen Wine Country Getaway With Pool, Hot Tub, Garden, Views, Location!
Your Country House is in the geographic center of The Valley of the Moon (what Jack London named Sonoma Valley), near Old Glen Ellen, just South of Kenwood and North of the historic Sonoma Plaza. The best place to stay in all of Sonoma Valley.
You are literally surrounded by world class wineries, dining, spas, history and nature. It is a great getaway year round.
A few of the wineries within 2 minutes of the house: Abbot's Pass, Benzinger, Hamel, Eric Ross, BR Cohn, Imagery, Arrowwood, Mayo, Little Family, Laurel Glen and Paint Horse.
Even though you will be surrounded by famous sites, once you get to the house you may not want to go anywhere. Enjoy the Pool, hot tub, gardens and fire pit. Relax in one of many cozy outdoor spots with a good book. If you like to cook - help yourself to whatever is in season in the garden and plan your menu! Instacart and Prime Now can deliver whatever other ingredients you need within a couple hours.
Hike to the most beautiful parts of the Jack London State Park straight from the house, no need to drive or go for a run around Lake Suttonfield - a 5 minute walk away. Practice yoga under the wisteria pergola or get a workout gardening!
Enjoy coffee on the back deck and the Sunrise over the Mayacamas Mountains. In the evening, glass of wine in hand, watch the Sunset over Heaven Hill from the pool!
Relax at night in the Hot Tub and Stargaze- the country night is so dark that many more stars are visible to the naked eye than in the city.
Most kids of any age find plenty of ways to keep busy. There are many outdoor toys of different types (and conditions!) on site. The cleaning service will not take care of them but a quick rinse with the hose is all they need and most kids are happy. There are Pool toys and floats, push toys, ride on toys, gardening toys and more. Kids like to race around the winding pathways on scooters and little ones enjoy the small playhouse. There are some books, puzzles and inside toys as well. The kitchen has all the kid cutlery, plates etc you will need so leave yours at home! We love families and welcome yours!
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a fireplace. Housekeeping is available on request.

Wonderful home for a girls weekend!
Six adults stayed comfortably for a long weekend. Home was exactly as advertised and the owner was incredibly proactive and helpful. The low water pressure made showers for 6 a bit tricky, but the pool house shower was perfect and allowed us to get everyone ready quickly. The home is landscaped really well with total privacy and minimal noise despite being on a main road. There were many places for us to relax and have fun. And Sonoma was just a 15 minute drive away! Overall, a lovely home with a caring and very responsive owner. Thank you for letting us stay at your property!

Wonderful girls weekend
Lovely home! It's definitely an oasis once you get through the gate - lemon trees, blooming wisteria, the pool & hot tub, the outdoor seating areas! The inside is also quite lovely and comfortable - there were 8 of us who stayed there. Everyone said their beds were comfortable. We loved having our morning coffee on the back porch overlooking the gardens, watching the sunrise over the mountains - perfection! Our evenings were spent in the hot tub enjoying cocktails! Jennifer was very helpful and accommodating - gave us lots of recommendations and provided us with extra towels and kept us posted on check-in and check-out times. We followed her recommendation to get sandwiches from the market - yummy! A few issues in the kitchen that I have let her know about - I'm sure she'll get those fixed - but we were able to prepare our meals there despite those! Highly recommend this home for your visit to wine country!

Beautiful house, inconsiderate host
The house is beautiful however the stars lost are because the host has no customer service skills. Check-in was clunky. I texted to receive the check in code information from the host directly as there was not much information shared in writing prior. Cleaners were still there when we arrived so we waited outside for them to finish.We were promised 3 full bathrooms, when we arrived to the property, there were only 2 full bathrooms due to the 3rd bathroom still being under construction. We were told this right before we arrived. 2 showers for 7 girls was a lot to juggle.My friend ended up slipping and falling in the pool house bathroom due to the rain and slippery tiles and having to frequently go outside due to lack of showers provided inside the house.The host responded defensively and with aggression to the feedback I shared. She eerily said that she had been watching us on her cameras and saw that the check in was "fine". She insinuated that I was lying. It was surprising because she was lovely at first and had shared recommendations on places to go. Her demeanor completely changed when having a conversation around the issues that we had been having.I never received any sort of refund even though the property was not as advertised. She has not followed up with me to make this right or apologize for her aggression and attitude over the phone. It was such a fun trip with friends to celebrate me getting married and dealing with her was the worst part of it.

Beautiful home! Great for a large group
We stayed at this Glen Ellen getaway for 3 nights celebrating my sister. We were able to comfortably sleep 9 adults. The house had everything we need. We stayed in one night and had a private chef dinner outside on the large wooden table under the string lights. It was a beautiful setting. The pool and hot tub are also amazing. Nights were cold so we ended up spending a lot of time in the hot tub!
Overall, this was the perfect house for what we needed! The host was super communicative, helpful, and responsive.

Family time with 3 generations
Our annual family tripled us to Glen Ellen. We chose this property for the location, the pool and all the outdoor space. We were not disappointed. Our host, Jen was so wonderful with the communication about everything. When I did have a question, she promptly got back with me. She had wonderful suggestions of where to go and what to do. Honestly we enjoyed the property so much that we hardly left. Pool days and outdoor dinners led to the perfect environment! Our dogs were thrilled with the fenced in large property too!! Our 3rd annual trip just might be right back here!

Great space with large yard and pool
We stayed for a week at this house about 5 minutes south of Glen Ellen with my nearly 90 year old mother and brother for our annual family summer getaway.
The space is lovely, with a big pool (not heated) and hot tub, grass areas, lots of seating, big back yard with large dining table and fire pit. We mostly used the pool and decks due to stairs to the backyard which my mom couldn’t navigate. There is a ramp near the front which works for handicapped.
The beds were comfortable and Jen was easy to communicate with. We had some glitches with the tv (error message on smart tv so couldn’t get reception for two days) and with the bbq (no propane, doesn’t get hot enough). She’s been made aware and is looking to fix it.
With a few minor updates, this place would be spectacular. Close to many wineries, about 20 minutes to Sonoma, hiking.

Family Getaway Fun
Our stay in Glen Ellen was absolutely perfect. The house provided all we needed for a base of operations as we explored Sonoma and Napa valleys. Comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, and space for all family members to enjoy themselves. Our nine year old was particularly taken by the pool, which provided hours of fun during the summer heat, while adults lounged on one of the many outdoor chairs or soaked in the hot tub.
If you've never been to Glen Ellen, it proved a delightful hamlet to spend the week, with good restaurants, a well stocked grocery store, and plenty of wineries to visit. Honestly, we barely scratched the surface of what the region had to offer during our five days. Though, we did fall in love with Kunde Winery (just a short drive away) and would recommend them to anyone who believes a good tasting should be accompanied by charcuterie.
It also can't go unsaid how incredibly helpful the host was. She gave us a ton of good ideas about activities for adults and children... and you could tell she was honestly committed to the enjoyment of her guests. If you're looking for a place to stay with a couple of families or just one big family, this is a really great choice.

Wonderful getaway
We had a great time at the glen ellen getaway. We were 6 adults and 4 kids (8-11) there to celebrate my mother in law’s 80th birthday, and the house was perfect for us. The kids (and adults) loved the pool and the slide and we all had fun exploring the area…a hike in Jack London state park, wineries and the very cute glen ellen market. The host was very communicative, and gave us tons of recommendations before we arrived, and was available if we had any questions while we were there. We will definitely go back sometime again.

Girls Weekend
Look no further for your family gathering or girls weekend. This property is beautiful and you can see and feel the love put into it. Not only did we have fun hot tubing and cold plunging in the pool but we laid pool side and snacked on the side deck while playing games. Coffee time with the sunrise over the property and all of the beautiful birds was a must for us. Jen was an incredible host helping us find hikes from the house that were perfect for us. You’re close enough to walk to glen ellen and also close enough for a short drive to Sonoma. Long story short if you can book this property do it. You won’t regret it. Thank you for all your hospitality, Jen! Your space made my birthday wonderful!
