About this property
Casa 1 at Ross Ranch
Casa 1 at Ross Ranch is a rare and intimate wine country escape — a beautifully remodeled farmhouse set among lush Cabernet vines on a 20-plus acre working ranch in Knights Valley, just north of Calistoga. With panoramic views of Mount Saint Helena framing every window and the unhurried rhythm of ranch life setting the pace, this is a property that changes the way guests think about what a Napa Valley stay can be.
Inside, the 1,100-square-foot farmhouse has been thoughtfully redesigned with contemporary furnishings, modern art, and warm, inviting hues that feel both stylish and genuinely comfortable. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms accommodate up to six guests with ease — intimate enough for a romantic couples retreat, spacious enough for a small group of close friends.
Step outside and the ranch comes alive. Adirondack chairs face the vineyard and Mount Saint Helena — arguably one of the finest morning coffee spots in all of wine country. The property's standalone gym, equipped with two Peloton bikes, free weights, a rowing machine, and a smart TV, sits just steps away for guests who want to start the day with purpose before heading out to the valley's tasting rooms.
As part of the farm stay experience, Casa 1 guests have full access to the shared heated pool, the party barn entertainment space, and a pickleball court — amenities that punch well above what the intimate scale of the farmhouse itself might suggest. Fresh eggs from resident chickens and herbs and vegetables from the garden are yours each morning, and private wine tastings of the ranch's own Cabernet label and farm-to-table chef dinners can be arranged to round out the experience.
The property is fully gated with coded entrances, surrounded by acres of Cabernet vines, horses, cows, and the kind of peacocks that quickly become the most photographed subjects of any stay. Calistoga's restaurants, spas, and world-class wineries are just minutes down the road — though mornings at Ross Ranch have a way of making departure feel less urgent than it should.

Perfect getaway!
We have such a wonderful time at Ross Ranch! Our kids swam in the pool all day, visited the animals, ran around the property, and played pickleball until the sun went down! There were so many thoughtful touches all over the house and pool area that made our stay so easy and enjoyable. We will definitely be back!

A slice of heaven
We still talk about this stay. It’s totally private, nestled behind a vineyard, with tons of amenities and things to do. From the friendly horses who poked their curious heads up to greet us, to gathering fresh delicious eggs or playing a game on the well kept racket ball courts, there’s delight around every corner! Peacocks free roam the property and there’s a barn in the centers with a tv and hangout space that was a nice bonus. There’s a gym as well for those on a fitness journey. We ran into the owner and she was as nice as can be! We’re already dreaming of coming back.

Ross Ranch
We had the best time at Ross Ranch. Despite cold temps and rain, our children were outside running around watching the cows, chickens, horses and even peacocks. When it was clear outside we loved the pickleball court! The pool was heated for some fun night swims. As parents, we enjoyed the Ross Ranch tasting and look forward to bringing the Ranch blend and more home with us! The hosts were lovely and so easy! We will return!

Perfect family retreat
We rented casa 1 for a family retreat for a week. It was a perfect getaway from the city: a serene, quiet and peaceful location, tons to do on the property (pool, games, farm animals, pickleball), and great access to wineries and fine dining because the property sits between both Napa (Calistoga) and Sonoma (Healdsburg). Keith and Claudia were wonderful welcoming hosts, and we hope to return soon.

Amazing Escape
We absolutely loved this property and enjoyed every element. The party barn was a wonderful surprise - the horses and animals were so friendly, the kitchen is stocked - all amazing.
