We could live here
There were 5 of us extended family members in this cozy bungalow but it felt just right, particularly with the comfortable patio area out back and front porch. Kitchen/dining very well supplied (once we discovered the pantry) so I was able to serve a delicious dinner for folks traveling in from afar. We could all gather around the big dining table. Lovely bed linens and towels, and everything was perfectly cleaned (I’m persnickety about that). Perfectly situated for walking everywhere (even to the wedding venue). Everyone said they could live there. Yeah, in our dreams. The only suggestion I have is it would have been helpful in the large bathroom to have a long narrow 2-shelf table to use for people’s toiletries. With 3 people using the bathroom, there was no room to store personal items; and add a power strip in front bedroom. We’d do it all again. Perfect memory making in “our house.”

Perfect Sonoma Getaway
The property is a lovely craftsman-style bungalow just steps from the main plaza in Sonoma. Very well-appointed and the off-street parking is a great benefit. Three comfy bedrooms, a kitchen with everything you need, and a dining room and living room for comfortable sitting around with friends. We particularly enjoyed the very private backyard for breakfast and an afternoon glass of wine, and there is a nice porch as well.

Lovely House in the Best Location in Sonoma!
We had the most amazing stay at this rental house in Sonoma! The location is absolutely unbeatable - just steps off Sonoma Square, putting us within easy walking distance to all the fantastic restaurants, shops, and tasting rooms. Even the trailhead for the Sonoma Overlook Trail was a short walk away, which made for a perfect balance of wine and nature.There were five of us on a girl’s getaway, and the house was super comfortable for our group. The beds were cozy, the bathrooms were beautifully updated, and the washer and dryer were such a convenient bonus. We especially loved relaxing with a glass of wine on the charming side patio, it was such a peaceful spot to unwind.The hosts were thoughtful and welcoming, leaving us a bottle of wine and coffee to enjoy on arrival, which was such a lovely touch. Communication with the property manager was smooth and responsive throughout our stay.We truly had a wonderful experience and would absolutely love to stay here again the next time we’re in Sonoma!

Bungalow Heaven
We did a women’s trip and stayed in this wonderful bungalow. The location is steps as from the downtown plaza where we shopped and dined. It is also walking distance to the Sonoma market for groceries. It’s a lovely neighborhood. The bungalow itself is beautiful. The floor plan is perfect for hanging out in the kitchen, in the dining room, in the front living room or on the front porch. The beds were all very comfortable. The bathrooms were bright, clean and spacious. The kitchen had everything we needed.Management was there in minutes when we foolishly locked ourselves out.You will be very happy staying here.

This is a lovely and spacious bungalow right off the Sonoma Square. We had a minor issue with the smoke detectors, and it was resolved very quickly. I would recommend this home for its layout, proximity to the square, and responsiveness of the property manager!
