8 / 10Excellent·Jul 2026
The good: The property is huge and very clean. The outdoors space is beautiful, great pool and outdoor seating. Fantastic location close to town yet tucked-away feeling. The rooms inside are also huge and there's a lot of comfortable seating inside as well. The kitchen has most of what you need (I couldn't find cutting boards, that's about all that was missing). The property management company was very friendly and quickly responsive to my questions. The could-be-better: The rooms are very sparsely filled. For instance, the master bedroom only has one bedside table - I had to drag a chair over to rest my water and cell phone on at night. There's no soap dish in the master bathroom. Small things, but it gets a bit annoying at that high price point. And the house is definitely a prefab job, so the walls are thin and there are some small structural issues, like the doors to the master bedroom don't stay closed and the carpeting is bunched up at points so you trip on it a little. Nothing major, but I've paid less for other houses in that same neighborhood that are much better appointed, so the value felt overall a little less here.Overall, we had a great stay. My complaints are pretty minor in the grand scheme of things. I'd rate it 4.5 stars overall if I could. And I was really impressed with the property management company, which counts for a lot!

Perfect property for our vacation with 3 others couples! The house was an easy drive to some great wineries and we were able explore the Redwoods and Pacific coast on our final day! We were able to cook dinner all 3 nights in the house and rest up for our days checking out Sonoma County.

6 / 10Average·Aug 2023
I went with my family (wife, 3 kids under 5) and my brothers family (wife and two kids under 5). The outside area was great for the kids, very happy. The kitchen was nice and open. Obviously, we had to cook so it was nice having the kitchen. However, we arrived to a half roll of paper towels and hand soap that only got us through the first night. I've never stayed at a rental that didnt provide enough of these for your stay. The rest of the main shared living was fine. The master bedroom was pretty much disgusting. The carpets had stains on them everywhere and big sections of them were pulling up off the ground creating a ridge (for lack of a better term). The bathroom was pretty gnarly as well. It honestly felt like I was in a Motel 8 at best. The bed sheets were like sandpaper and towels were cheap and very small for body towels. The worst of all was how the management handle it. I wrote complaining about the carpet and they wrote back saying "most people appreciate the living and outdoor space and do not prioritize the bedrooms." I sent them a video and pictures to fully express how gross the carpets, vanities and doors in the bedroom looked and they just threatened me that they would "go over the house with a fine tooth comb" because I brought a service animal with me. I wish I could post pictures to show. The house overall is fine if you dont care about your bedrooms at all. Management very rude. Not worth the amount of money that they charge.
