About this property
Clean & Spacious-Walk to the Fairmont, great restaurants, coffee shops and wine
This spacious 2000 sq ft home in the hot springs of Sonoma was built in 1918 as the Spreckles family vacation home and is right across the street from the Fairmont Sonoma Mission Inn.
We have hosted many happy wine weekends, bachelorette parties and wedding parties. Our proximity to wineries and being only a two minute walk to the Fairmont makes this house the perfect place to stay for your event.
Extremely walkable, all of your needs are within a two minute walk of this home, which makes it perfect for large groups who want to explore the area on foot, or take a short drive to dozens of wineries, restaurants and spas that make wine country a great destination.
This house only has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. We have created extra sleeping areas by adding comfortable beds to other areas of the house, like the office and the enclosed porch. Our home is pretty much all beds, but we also have a large living room, dining room and kitchen as shared species. The kitchen and bathrooms have been updated, and the house is near everything. In the heart of wine country, this is a great spot for wine tasting, spa visits, wedding parties, etc.
The property is spacious, and has many options for sleeping comfortably. Inquire if you are not sure if the space will work for you. We have two cal-king beds, two full sized beds and three twin beds, (and two twin trundle beds that can be moved anywhere in the home with ease) with varying degrees of privacy.
The house is old and can be warm in the Summer months. It does cool down at night, but the AC does not get the house below 75 on a 110 degree day. Please do not book in the Summer if you need a freezing cold house.

The house is good, very well used. It is a house to which they have added beds in different rooms. Some of the rooms are compartmentalized by curtains instead of walls. We rented it for 6 friends who did not want to share a bed. We were looking for a place to stay in Sonoma for a weekend of wine and winery visits. For that, the house worked perfectly for us. The heating in the house works very well, the kitchen is spacious and has everything we needed. The dining room is perfect, with a large table. The outdoor area is quite large, with a very cozy firepit, although the garden would need some maintenance. Communication with the owner Alyssa was cordial. I would recommend this house to a group of friends looking to be comfortable, but without great luxury. They have a grocery store right outside the door and in the evenings there are several food trucks open late very close to the house.
14 of us came here for my friend's bachellorette weekend. It was tight but perfect. We had good food, good wine, good hiking, and just a great weekend together.
Host was very quick with communication. Easy check in and check out. Charming older home. Some deferred maintenance. Overall, suited our needs.

Comfortable house and very accommodating, great location
Alyssa was a great host and very hospitable! I rented the house for a trip with friends, and we all had our own beds which was nice. My only call out is that you don't get much privacy if you are going with a group since you need to walk through some of the rooms with beds to get to the bathrooms. The house in general was stocked with kitchen supplies so we were able to BBQ one night, and it was a great location (walkable to some restaurants, food market and a coffee shop that we went to every morning). It is also a very short uber ride to Sonoma Square which is a big plus.

Perfect home for our Book Group weekend getaway!
There were 7 of us this weekend and this house was perfect for what we needed. While it is a bit funky (note that it is an historic craftsman-style home that has had several modifications over the years) in layout, we all had our own beds (yay!) and easy access to the two restrooms. The dining area and kitchen were lovely and well-equipped. Location was great and we took advantage of the nearby Girl & the Fig (delicious food!) and close proximity to the coast (1 hr and 15 minutes to Shell Beach and some nice hikes) as well as Jack London Park in Glen Ellen. Highly recommend this property and also kudos to a wonderful hostess, Alyssa. While we never met, she was very responsive and checked in periodically to ensure that everything was as expected.
We rented this property for a retreat and get-together for seven of us. The sleeping arrangements definitely require some adjustments, but we're all friendly and flexible, so it worked for us. We especially loved the open areas and common rooms--spent long hours in the living room in front of the fire and at the dining table sharing meals and playing games.
The location may feel a little sketchy when you first arrive (on a main road behind an auto repair shop) but feels secure and comfortable inside. Walking distance to some of the best Mexican food I've ever had (El Molino Central) and a wonderful tarot card reader (Kristine at Tarot Art Tattoo).
All in all, a delightful weekend, and Alyssa was an awesome host--very quick to respond to emails and offer assistance.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
While the host and her communication was great , the house was pretty rundown. There was port hair in and on top of the bedding in two bedrooms. Good size and great location though
We were thoroughly impressed by this property. It was very clean, functional and had plenty of space and comfort for 4-6 people. We appreciated the property's location, its old Sonoma charm and Alyssa, the owner, was terrific. We will definitely be back to this property in the future.
The home was an excellent value. It is designed to hold up to 9 people with a very cleaver use of bedroom space. The dining room was perfect for our group. We like to play cards and the dining room table was perfect for 8 people.
This home was very comfortable and very well stocked.
As stated in other reviews, the bedrooms are connected.....you must walk through some to get to others, so not a lot of privacy if that is needed. It was big and spacious with a great living room and dining area. Also , there were 2 bathrooms which was a necessity for our family. Many of the other homes for rent only had 1. Area around the house is a bit congested as it is next to a small store so be careful when entering the street.
Very great experience! Was able to leave the uneaten food behind for the owners children to eat so we didn’t have to toss out food. Would definitely visit again!
Our group had a wonderful weekend at Alyssa's house. There was plenty of room for everyone to sleep, eat, and hang out. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked! We strongly recommend this place for large groups!
House worked out great for us! House was very noisy. Screaming, cussing Fight broke out last night around 2am & continued until close to 3am right outside the house. Can heat all the road noise, car doors slamming & people talking. Porch room is not dark enough at night. Other than sleeping the house was great. Would be nice if outside was groomed so you can sit out.

Great location, good for large groups
Pros: Location, plenty of sleeping options, plentiful towels / cooking supplies / seating / extra toiletries. A master bedroom with the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in. Adorable and very useful welcome basket. And finally, an extremely responsive host who was helpful leading up to the reservation and throughout our stay.
Cons: The bedrooms are basically all interconnected, with the exception of a bed on an enclosed patio. That said, it actually worked out fine for our group of 30-something year old women. As long as you know the people you're traveling with, no one snores, and you're all going to sleep at roughly the same time, it shouldn't be an issue.
I would definitely recommend this house, and would stay here again myself.

Perfect House for Large Groups
We loved staying here for my friend's bachelorette party. The kitchen has everything you need, the beds are very comfortable, and there is plenty of space for everyone to relax and hangout. The location is also great for walking to dinner or taking a quick uber/lyft ride to the square, and the host is extremely responsive and accommodating. We really enjoyed this trip and would highly recommend this house.

Perfect home base for a wine country wedding!
The property easily fit my 8 friends during a wedding weekend. Ample amount of beds (and very comfort) and a perfect kitchen for cooking and entertaining. Love the large kitchen table and the back yard! Very short drive to grocery stores and wineries! I would absolutely stay there again!

Great home with everything you need!
Good location, very cozy and well stocked with those little extra things you might need. The outside of the house did not impress, its curb appeal is not the best. You have a big trash can in front of house that belongs to the store/bodega right next to it. But when you walk in, this house is amazing! It’s perfect for a big group. We had a group of 8 and we were comfortable. Some of the rooms are connected to each other, so in order to use the bathroom, for example, you’re going to walk past someone’s bed in order to get there. I think it has a fun layout with a lot of seating areas. The store next door is excellent for quick last minute shopping and the Mexican food they sell is delicious. It was a good location if you’re planning to go to different surrounding areas. Napa was about 20-30 mins depending on traffic. Great host and welcome basket was a sweet, cozy touch.
