Getaway for 12
Submitted: February 2, 2010
Stayed: December 2009
The home was nice, clean and well stocked. There was very poor cell phone service (dead zone) and the home wireless system often would drop it's signel. The walls were very thin and you could hear what was being said in the next room. When the toilet was flushed upstairs you thought there was a major leak in the room underneath it. The owners seemed a little rough. They did not communicate well both before and after our stay to the point we were not sure we had the home until we arrived. It was odd that we were required to strip our beds when we left. It took a month before we recieve our deposit back. Overall the place was nice but I do not feel that it was worth the amount of money we paid. I do not think I would stay there again.
Owner's Response: Yes, the cell phone service poor (for ATT and T-mobile) great for Sprint and OK Verizon, but I offer free long distance land line. Wireless system signal is Great-only can be problem outside 0.5mile away. The outside walls-6-8inches thick (everything per California building code-plumbing too). The group pays second 50% of rent-a week before arrival with “bad” check, and I let them in (without payment), -I was OK, almost 3 hours later-got credit card payment which was approved next day-no problem -I trust people. I required from my guests-do not strip beds-I’ll take care of it. It was some damaged items and a lot of cleaning work-I tried to communicate with guests,but got no cooperation-and I said-no problem and return deposit back. About future stay-it is your choice, I not sure about my too.

Incredible Holiday Vacation
Submitted: December 30, 2012
Stayed: December 2012
We just returned from spending the Christmas Holiday with our family at this beautiful home. It was absolutely perfect, clean and accommodated 9 of us very comfortably. The decor was extremely tasteful, and there was even some festive holiday decorations. The kitchen was very well equiped and easy for a crowd to prepare meals. It was ideally located for day trips to wineries and other sites, and being a few miles from Whole Foods and Trader Joe's was definitely a bonus. Everything was in working order, and the owner came by the first day to help us out with getting the hot tub ready, and it was awesome! The only real negative which we knew about beforehand was the lack of good cell phone reception, but you only needed to walk outside, or go upstairs in the corner bedroom to get a signal. The wi-fi worked fine. I would definitely return, and highly recommend this place to any group. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home and giving us some great memories.

We Had An Amazing Time
Submitted: October 3, 2012
Stayed: September 2012
The house is beautiful and was clean. Very poor cell service, but we were warned of that ahead of time. The house was well stocked with dishes, pots, pans, condiments and paper goods. The owner was very accommodating, as we needed a late check out because of air line changes. The only complaint I have is that only one fireplace worked (the one in the family room), We were 11 people and a 3 month old and everyone was extremely comfortable and happy, and had an amazing time. I would definitely recommend this house for a special occasion. I rented this house for my 60th Birthday/family celebration. It was an excellent location for shopping, vineyards and a little extra sightseeing and it was everything and more that was shown in the photos and the description.

Owner's Response: Dear Nadine.
Thank you for choosing us. I am a bit confused with fireplaces-all three indoor working-I always here to show you how to start, just ask. Out door one sometimes overheated by use with closed doors, and electronic sensor turn it of-need to be restarted, but this is factory protection from overheat.

An Amazining House and a Great Place for a Getaway
Submitted: December 15, 2011
Stayed: December 2011
Several of my old college friends and I (and our wives) get together for an annual pre-Christmas weekend getaway. The group of 8 of us has rented many vacation homes together, and the "Celebrity Villa" is absolutely at the top of the list.
For as amazing as this house is, the nightly rate is a great deal.
The large high-caliber kitchen worked out great for 4 guys making a massive feast.
The location is ideal. It's a quiet neighborhood, but near enough to make getting to Healdsburg, Santa Rosa, Sonoma and Napa all very nice day trips. We had a phenomenal time.
While it is true that ATT service was pretty spotty, there is wi-fi, which (if you have an iPhone on ATT) allows you to send iMessages, so this drawback didn't impact us at all.
Now for the negative stuff:
I read several other posts about it being "well stocked", and for the most part it was...but we found that it was missing aluminum foil and soap. I can understand not having the foil, but missing bar soap (in the showers) was a minor annoyance, but the kind of annoyance that can be fixed for a couple of dollars.
So yeah, that the sum of things this house is 3 bars of soap away from being absolutely perfect...and I suspect that was just an oversight by the cleaning crew...so when you rent this place there probably will be soap, and you will have a 100% perfect experience.
I completely recommend this house!
If you are picking the location for a group getaway, choose this house, and your friends will all THANK YOU! This place is that good. You will not be disappointed and your friends will think you are a star for finding this gem of a house.

Great House Great Location
Submitted: October 9, 2011
Stayed: October 2011
We just came back from staying at this lovely home. We had an adult group of 7 people. All of us had lovely accomodations. The beds were very comfortable. The house is clean.The owner is very nice. The location is great! The kitchen is amazing. We stayed for 7 days and cooked several times during the week. The kitchen is well stocked. Most wineries and restaurants are withing 20 miles in any direction from the house. We all would go back. We recommend this house to anyone who wants to visit wine country. The only issue in the area is cell phone coverage. None of us could get a signal in the house. We had to go out on the front porch to get a signal. There is WIFI in the house.

Five couples rented this beautiful home from Anthony to celebrate my 50th birthday in July 2011. Not only is the home beautiful and spacious but in a very good location. Plenty of privacy, spacious bed rooms, great amenities including everything you need in a kitchen and outdoor grill and patio, Our guests enjoyed their rooms and the kitchen/family room easily accomodated all10 people. We had plenty of space in the dining room for a nice meal. We look forward to renting this property again. It easily could comfortably accomodate at least 12 people.

We spent Memorial Day weekend celebrating our daughter's 30th birthday with family and friends. What a perfect home to accommodate all of our guests! After long days touring wineries, we enjoyed having dinner in by cooking in the well equipped kitchen and eating (14 of us one night!) together at the dining room table. Everyone enjoyed the hot tub and pool table. It really is a beautiful home and a stay we will be fondly remember forever. We highly recommend this property-ENJOY!

Wonderful Home
Submitted: February 21, 2011
Stayed: February 2011
Just returned from a weekend at this property with 11 adults.
The place was VERY VERY well stocked with the stuff many rental properties lack (tons of nice towels, every kitchen appliance you could want, lots of dishware, DVDs, blankets, etc.
As noted by the owner, cell phone reception is poor, but wifi is reliable, and the house phone provided works just fine.
Owner was great, and offered to come to the place when we arrived and showed us how to use the hot tub, fire pit, grill, and other amenities - and gave us recommendations and discount coupons on local wineries.
It should be noted there are only 5 actual bedrooms in this home. There is a nice, large, entertainment area upstairs with a pull out bed that is fine - but you walk through this room to get to the other three bedrooms upstairs.
Thanks for a great, relaxing place to stay this weekend -

This house was splendid in every way. We spent the week before Christmas there and everything was perfect. We traveled from south Florida and arrived to this hillside retreat after a delayed and late flight. The house received us with holiday decor and the warmest and most comfortable showers and beds. Every detail of this home is special. We love to cook and the kitchen is a cook's dream. We grilled by then outside fireplace under the stars in the magnificent outdoor kitchen. We visited wineries by day and relaxed in our haven at night. We tried a few local restaurants, all cozy and lovely.
Home is close enough to do day trips to San Fran.
We were a small group, my husband our two grown children and my son's girlfriend. Easily, the home could accommodate more guests and for us it was perfect for togetherness and yet ample privacy.
We enjoyed the jacuzzi, the many fireplaces and overall ambiance. Thank you to the home 's owners...you were great to work with and so welcoming...
As the saying goes," it is not where you are for the holidays rather who you are with"....
For us it was both. We all work really hard all year and this was a perfect gift to all of us, sharing the magic of the holiday season In an ideal setting with our cherished loved ones.
Merry Christmas to all and hug the ones you love!
