Himmel House was perfect for our family vacation. It lived up to everything on the listing. House was well-appointed, warm and inviting; grounds, gardens and pool were private and lovely. We all agreed that we’d love to re-book in the future.

The house was amazing it was perfect it had everything we needed for a family vacation will definitely stay again and recommend extremely clean and organized
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·May 2022
This is the most well equipped and fully stacked kitchen I have ever stayed. They have anything you can imagine in a kitchen. It would have been perfect to prepare gourmet food, but we did not cook. We did take advantage of it's proximity to a few of wonderful restaurants near by. The house is quite comfortable for our group of 5. one of the 2 bathrooms is quite small but functional. The landscape of the yard is simple and pleasant. It feels like you are in the countryside of France. The pool is sizable but the water is quite cold in a warm sunny day in May at temperature of 78-80. This is the only negative to our stay. We enjoyed the tranquility this house offered. We would consider coming back in the future
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Dec 2021
Great house, very quiet and private. Great location as well, halfway between Santa Rosa and Sonoma and very close to Glenn Ellen and numerous wineries. The bedrooms are nice and private, with two set on one side of the living room and one on the other. Perfect for families or couples wanting to share but still be out of the way. My only complaint is that the stove, while top of the line, was maybe intended for a professional chef and hard to use for the layman, and the bathrooms/kitchen was a little understocked with necessities.
