The Country House is truly one-of-a-kind, offering a perfect escape in the serene wine country. Please note that the home is situated at the top of a winding, steep one-lane road, making it unsuitable for limousines or wine buses.

Just Fabulous!

by Anthony H

We loved this place! Well worth the stay. We hired a driver to pick us up and drop us off every day to go to wineries, and although it was far away from everything was totally worth waking up every morning to the beautiful views, the beautiful sunset, the beautiful sunrise, and we even got to see hot air balloons bobbing up and down through the fog on the valley below. The swimming pool was absolutely amazing, it is heated, but make sure that you locate the pool cover button to be able to access it. We got great use of the hot tub as well! We are already making plans to revisit the same listing next year.

Thank you so much for your review Anthony! We value your feedback so much and would absolutely love to host you again!

We loved the house.

by Elizabeth G.
We loved the house and view. The kitchen had all the equipment we needed to prepare meals at home. The pool was beautiful. We could wait to end our day back at the house.

The Country House will take your breath away!

by John C.
The family loved our stay at the Country House and it was a great way to celebrate our 30th anniversary. The property is a real treasure atop the Sonoma Mountain and the panoramic views of the bucolic Sonoma Valley are breathtaking with images to last a lifetime. It's so beautiful you won't want to leave the grounds, but Star Restaurant is only 15 minutes away if you want a great dinner out . Its a windy trek up the hill, but certainly worth it. I'd strongly recommend this property for a fun weekend getaway!

Spectacular house and views

by Roger V.
My wife and I along with our two adult children and their spouses spent a week we will long remember in the Country House in Glen Ellen CA. Most everything about the place was perfect for our family gathering. It is a spectacular house situated in a beautiful setting up high on Sonoma Mountain with a sweeping view of the valley below and the hills all around. We never tired of looking at the fantastic views. Despite its very private setting, it's location was very good for us to take day trips to many wineries in both Sonoma and Napa, to the ocean, to go paddle boarding at a lake and to visit historical sites in the area. We would then end each day sitting on one of the expansive decks sipping local wines and watching the sun go down behind the hills while the fog moved slowly up the valley from the west. It was enchanting. And if that wasn't enough, taking a dip in the large pool or soaking in the hot tub, both with great views also, helped round out each day. The house is beautifully furnished and very well-supplied with kitchenware, towels, guest robes, and other amenities you typically would enjoy in a fine hotel. It was clean and organized well for our arrival. Most of us enjoy cooking and it was easy to do in the spacious and well-appointed kitchen. We also used one of the two outdoor gas BBQs when we grilled for dinner. The house also offered a first-rate audio and video setup as well as a large supply of games to keep us entertained. In summary, all six of us rated our stay at the Country House as top of the line and several even rated it as the best experience of all the things we did and saw during our two weeks of visiting the Bay Area.

Awesome property!

by Craig C.
From the moment we walked through the door and saw the fantastic view from the deck, we absolutely enjoyed this property. Every sunrise and sunset was spectacular. The house is beautiful as well as functional. The kitchen was great. The pool and hot tub were relaxing. We definitely spent more time at the house than we originally planned. The drive to the vineyards were a little long, but very much worth it. We loved The Country House!

It was amazing!

by Tania W.
The house and grounds were breathtaking! The pool, gardens, and hot tub were beyond our expectations. We also loved being at the top of the mountain and looking down at the valley. The bedrooms and kitchen were very comfortable and accommodating. I would highly recommend staying here, if you don’t mind the steep, winding road.

Magical place with impressive views

by David W.
This is an amazing home. Located on top of a hill, with amazing views. The house is super interesting, fantastic kitchen, rooms, and the patios are amazing. Plenty of room. The pool is fantastic, we had a magical weekend.

Wow! We knew from the photos this place would be awesome but in reality totally blew us away!

by Jeffrey L.
As you make your way up the winding tree lined driveway you get the sense you are heading to someplace special.....and you'd be right! Once you walk through the front door into the great room the panoramic views are priceless! We came to Sonoma to enjoy the vineyards but found that we were equally excited to get back to the Country House. The wraparound deck with all of the seating options is where our family began and ended each day. Actually, one of our sons started each day watching the sunrise while sitting in the Jacuzzi. We ate most of our meals at the Country House which was made easy because of the well equipped kitchen and the outdoor grills. We highly recommend shopping at the Glen Ellen Market as we found this place to have a good variety and high quality products. The pool was a huge hit with our family and the Jacuzzi and koi pond nooks were nice additions to our experience. Overall, the Country House was comfortable and inviting. We would highly recommend this property to any group looking for a slice of heaven in wine country!

Private, fantastic views, spacious, well-appointed

by Richard G.
We rented this property for a holiday with a total of three couples. Everyone was very pleased with their respective rooms. We cooked two dinners using the BBQ on the main deck and the oven in the kitchen. We had all the dishes, utensils, bowls, plates, glasses and even some cooking ingredients we needed and ate outside while listening to music and enjoying the view. The star fall after the sunset was great! We had two dinners in Glen Ellen which is only a 15 minute drive away. Highly recommend both the Glen Ellen Inn and the Fig Cafe for a meal. The Glen Ellen Market has all the food, ingredients and wine you will need for any meal you choose to make at the property. 30 minute drive to The Town of Sonoma. Look into Uber if you want to enjoy the wine without concern about drinking and driving. Not as convenient to see places in Napa Valley; between 45-60 minutes each way to get to Napa depending on where you are going. 45-60 minutes to Hot Air Balloon ride departure sites and the Russian River Kayak & Canoe site. If a spectacular view and the option of making your own meals is part of the plan, you can do far worse than renting The Country House. Definitely recommended!

Can we live there?

by Dwight W.
My wife and I absolutely loved our stay. As others have written, everything about the home and grounds exceeded expectations. The home is up atop quite a hill, but is totally worth the climb! Wish we did not have to leave at the end of our stay and will undoubtedly be back for a return visit.

Incredible Property

by Vanessa L.
The pictures look great, but they actually don't do it justice. The views are breathtaking! The whole property is well taken care of and is really the perfect retreat. It has the best stocked kitchens out of any property we've ever rented. It has all the pots, pans, dishes, cooking utensils/gadgets that you could possible want. We also really appreciated the high quality knives since we cooked up a storm while we were there. The pool and hot tub are great and a perfect way to spend the day. Lastly, we really enjoyed working with Woodfield Properties. They provided timely and detailed information leading up to the trip. They are extremely professional and we felt very well taken care of. We hope to make a visit to this property an annual tradition.

Absolutely Amazing View and So Relaxing!!

by John F.
Best place to stay in Napa/Sonoma if you want to get away and relax. We shared this property with two other couples and everyone was blown away when we arrived at how spectacular and spacious the house is. And the view is priceless!! We even cancelled dinner out one night to cookout and relax at the pool. Everything you need is in the kitchen. Nearly any spice and condiment as well. The Glen Ellen Market has all the food, ingredients and wine you will need for any meal you desire. Yes, the ride up was a little steep – but we all got used to it and it is well worth it! We have already recommended this place to some friends. Can’t wait to come back. And oh, the pool was amazing – quiet and private. The best!!

Gorgeous view! Great kitchen space and deck area

Besides the rough ride to the top of the mountain, this property is fabulous for a group that wants to see Sonoma from above! Amazing view. Large deck areas, big kitchen for hosting and preparing large meals, pool and hot tub are also a plus!

Fabulous views!

by Lisa B.
The house was perfect for our family. The views were fabulous. The road was pretty steep, but nothing to worry about. Each time we went out we got more used to the route and it wasn’t an issue. The location is in the perfect place. You can easily travel to Napa and Sonoma. We stopped in Sausalito on the way from SFO, for lunch also. Beautiful scenery and a great house with everything you need. We went on the wine train and visited vineyards - Sterling and Sebastiani. We enjoyed a trip to Sonoma town also. Perfect five night get away for us and our grown children. The Glen Ellen market was great for gathering our groceries on the way up to the house. Five stars!

Best view ever!

by Lila H.
Not exaggerating, this property has hands down the best view of any rental I've stayed at. Perfect spot to relax with a glass of wine and a few friends, great fully equipped kitchen, total privacy. It feels like you're a world away; even though Santa Rosa is just over the hill, all you see is the ridges all the way to the ocean. One caveat, this place is for relaxing, and there isn't any large open space or hiking, just the lovely lawns and gardens around the house, so if you're bringing a dog, be aware that the road in is the only option for a walk, and it's very hilly! We definitely look forward to coming back here sometime.

The Best Kind of Remote

by Alison R.
Wow. At a time when we are all still either staying home or close to, this was the best remote vacation ever. A good 10 minutes UP from the main road, the road is not for the weary. And don't forget the milk as you won't want to go back to the store. But the steep mountain road makes for great exercise in the morning. The home is really something. The views make you feel on top of the world. The outdoor spaces provides sun, shade or protection from the wind. You can just move around all day depending on the weather. The pool, although cold is so wonderful and the trellised jasmine on the terrace welcomes you with gorgeous aroma. The hot tub is also perched on the hillside with beautiful views and so relaxing. The home is very welcoming and kitchen well appointed. It is the perfect place for cooking, dining and having quality time with family and friends. Mornings were spent hiking at near by areas, poolside in the afternoon and either cooking or going out to the fantastic local restaurants. The management makes it very easy, good communications and they have great recommendations if needed. The pool furniture and some of the indoor furniture could use a little love and replacement. But if you are looking for a place to write your memoir and enjoy truly being away from it all, The Country Home is the place!!

Amazing Stay!

by Constantine D.
Stayed for 10 days. 3 adults and 2 dogs. House is beautiful, well maintained, and very comfortable. The deck and the view are simply amazing. Great internet connection - was able to work remotely no problem. Drive up was a little challenging but not too terrible. My wife who is very prone to motion sickness handled it just fine.

Spectacular panoramic view.

by Mayra M.
This is a unique property with a spectacular panoramic view. I am very thankful to the owners for sharing their piece of Shangri-la. The view from the pool and hot tub make the steep drive worth it. The house is very comfortable and stocked with all the amenities. We went with two toddlers and they had a wonderful time there. I recommend it for families with children. Please keep in mind that there are strict rules regarding the number of guests admitted so you should think of this home as a quiet retreat and not a party home.
