Great house
The house was great. Close to downtown and grocery stores. We were there for a destination wedding. Roomy, open floor plan, great backyard. The beds are so comfortable. The only drawback is the bathrooms are small. The master bathroom has no counter space. If you are someone with many toiletries, it’s really a pain. I had to use the toilet lid for my make-up bag. Other than that one drawback all is great.

a most wonderful destination
A glorious weekend in the wine country with this delightful home as our retreat was our happy experience last weekend. The lavender filled front yard, the roomy common areas, the comfortable bedrooms and the ample and graciously kept country backyard were all clean and beautifully appointed for a delightful visit. We look forward to having another Sonoma weekend on David Street someday. We left a bag there and the host was quite quick to notify us and assist in our picking it up. Thank you.

Great for a Weekend Wedding
It was a great space for my family, my sister and brother-in-law, and my parents. The rooms were spacious and the living area accommodated the 8 of us well. Broadway Market was just a block away and was well stocked.

Beautiful home near wineries
Our family extended our stay from traveling across the country for a local wedding to visit wineries. This cozy home was perfect for us and had everything we needed to visit wineries and restaurants nearby and play cards/games in the evening. Beds were super comfortable! Patio area was spectacular!!!

Perfect house for a great girls trip
We had a wonderful three-night visit to Sonoma to celebrate some big birthdays. The house is exactly as advertised - gorgeous, clean, a perfect place to stay. Beds were comfortable, and the back patio and yard were the perfect places to relax after a long day in wine country. It is walkable to Sonoma Square - takes about 20-30 minutes to walk down. Thanks for offering such a wonderful property!

We were in town for a wedding at the lodge across the street. This was the perfect location close to the venue and walkable. House was clean and kids had plenty of space to play.

This house was perfect for our family. We had plenty of room and enjoyed using the kitchen. The location was nice for getting to the wineries. The tree out on the patio was a nice touch for the holidays!

Escape to Sonoma
This was the perfect place for our family to celebrate Thanksgiving. Great location in the heart of Sonoma with an easy walk to restaurants and shops on the Square. Loved being so close to town, yet on a quiet street. The house is set up beautifully with comfortable beds and seating and an amazing back deck to enjoy the weather. We can’t wait to return!

Great place in Sonoma
Really enjoyed our stay here. The home is great and is situated about 1 miles from center of Sonoma and 15-20 minutes to Napa. Quiet street and great backyard. Highly recommend anyone wanting to stay here you will love it. Plenty of room with 3 bedrooms.

Would Definitely Stay Again
My group of 6 enjoyed this property so much! It was a great location in Sonoma, we could walk to Wit and Wisdom restaurant and the Sonoma Bike Rentals. We also walked to HopMonk, but that was a bit too long. However, driving downtown was fast and to the grocery store. The property was awesome, we loved the yard the yard games and the spaciousness of everything. The beds were comfy and everything was great. We all agreed we would definitely stay again. Thank you for having us!

The Owner did not do the Right Thing
Our experience of staying in this house was a disaster. How the owner handled the issue made it even worse. We checked in on time and the house was a MESS ----- used sheets piled on the floor, garbage cans were full, kitchen countertops were dirty, leftover food in pantry drawer, sofa cushions stunk…we realized the house had not been cleaned! Another surprise, there is a two story house right on top of the backyard, no privacy at all. His pictures online are deceiving! We immediately attempted to contact the owner Milton, but no response. One hour later we tried again and finally he answered. He had no idea the cleaning team didn’t show up! Fast forward, we had to change plan for the night because leaving our belongings behind with cleaning service ongoing was not an option. After enduring two hours of loud vacuum noise, dirty laundry carried past us, all kind of chemical cleaning spray smells…our whole night was ruined. We asked Milton for compensation in the form of a one night refund, he offered 75% of this with no hesitation. We insisted on the one night refund, he said he had to talk to his partner. Next day he didn’t mention the 75% offer at all, he changed his offer to waiving the cleaning fee which equated to approximately 30% of our request or staying one more night for free. Really? What’s the difference between staying one night for free and a refund of one night? We believe Milton should have at least honored his original 75% offer. Accidents happen, as guests we expect the owner to do the right thing, keep your promise and handle the situation with honesty and integrity. We had a hard time finding these qualities from Milton. At the time of writing this review, we have received ZERO compensation from him.

Dear John, I'm certainly sorry that you had to experience the cleaning issue upon arrival as our goal is to make sure every guest has a 5 STAR experience during their stay, something we work very hard to achieve. This was the first time in two years our cleaner mixed up a check-in date so for that I'm truly sorry. In regards to the rest of your review it's simple inaccurate. Upon receiving the news I immediately called our cleaner and a back-up cleaner and had the home spotless within 2.5 hours of your check-in time. I offered to pay for your family to go out to dinner and told you the home would be ready upon your return. Instead of accepting you demanded an $800 credit. I generously offered a $500 credit or for you to stay an extra night and to refund you the cleaning fee if that worked for your schedule. The last exchange we had you indicated you wouldn't accept anything and requested no further communication which I understood and respected.

Exceeded expectations!
First comment....when can we go back?! This was an absolutely gorgeous property. The simplistic & clean design was stunning. And we spent a lot of time enjoying the heck out of the large deck overlooking the meticulously landscaped backyard. We will for sure be staying here in the future!

Quiet retreat in the wine country
I brought my daughters and friends to celebrate my one's 21st. This house had PLENTY of room for the 6 of us but you could comfortably get up to 10 with the extra blow ups and the huge leather sofa. The back yard was lovely but it was a bit nippy for us SOCA gals to alfresco. The fire pit would have been great but the time was limited, so maybe next time! The hottub was enjoyed by 2 in the group. The house has no lack of kitchen supplies and all in all a perfect home away from home.....

Lovely spot in Sonoma
We were pleased to find that the photographs on VRBO were an accurate depiction of the house. It was a perfect place for three couples. The house is light-filled and spacious with an open floor plan and a well appointed kitchen. The beds were comfortable with good quality bedding. The back deck and yard were a nice compliment to the interior space. Milton Boyd, the owner was very responsive to the few questions we had about the house once we checked in. We would definitely choose the house again.

Nice comfortable home in a great location
Stayed three nights in this newly refinished home. Unfortunately, it rained two of our days, so we couldn't enjoy the backyard, but had a great time anyway. Spacious main room and bedrooms. Beds very comfortable. Kitchen had everything we needed. Grilled out twice. Location was great for reaching many vineyards in Sonoma and getting to Napa. Owner was very accommodating. Nice place.

Wonderful Home!
Our group of 6 had the best time renting this house! The location is wonderful and close to downtown Sonoma. The home was beautifully renovated with lovely finishes. We really enjoyed the fact that the living area of the house was so open. We could easily converse from the kitchen table into the kitchen and living room area. The kitchen was well appointed and we had no issue needing additional equipment for cooking our meals. And the outdoor space was phenomenal with a great fire pit and hot tub. The hot tub would be snug with more than 4 people, however it is nice to offer this. We will absolutely try to rent this home again on our next trip to Sonoma!
