Casa de Gamay: Your Home Away From Home

Casa de Gamay is not just a house with a bedroom and a kitchen, our hope is that it is your home while you are away from home. We've strove to include all the amenities one would need while on the road and many you may not have thought about.

Start with a complete kitchen with a few items ready to cook for that last minute dinner. We have the spices and staples to help you create a marvelous meal. Take a look at the pictures to see examples of what may be available.

Invite your friends, we have place settings for 12 people. Enjoy a bottle of specialized wine as a sample of our local wineries.

Sit down next to our gas fireplace (started with a push of a button on the remote control) and watch cable TV (Comcast with a voice controlled remote), DVD player, Netflix.

Do you need to work? Use the pop-up coffee table as your workstation, work next to the fireplace, plug your Iphone into the big screen TV And have a zoom meeting. We have the fastest wireless available on AT&T.

Did you come with an electric vehicle? Now you can charge your car in our garage with our charging station.

Going to the river? Use our blowup rafts and safety vests.
Are the kids bored? We have toys for both boys and girls aged from 1 to 12. A stroller for the toddler, pop-up crib, booster seat, and if we didn't think of it, give us a call, I'm sure we have something you can use.

For those who collect State and National Park quarters, you will find a large pile of quarters to sort through. I used to collect State quarters and was always frustrated because I could only find Denver Mint quarters. People on the East Coast would have the same problem, but could only fine Philadelphia quarters. Now you can go through a pile and take what you want and leave some for others to find! The quarters can be found in the coffee table. If you find the quarters, you learn the secret of the coffee table! It's really cool!

Kids bored? Have a Nerf war with 8 guns and hundreds of bullets. Or try to find the 20+ hidden treasures located around the house. Things like:
> An old man making bubbles in the bathtub.
> A fidget spinner.
> A heart shaped rock.
> Reading glasses with headlamps.
> A dog wearing glasses.
> A cat in a box.
> Blue eggs.
> Two doves kissing.

Bring the dog! We have a dog bed with doggy treats.

Casa de Gamay is located on the west side of Santa Rosa just a couple of miles from dozens of local specialized wineries. Take a walk in the Redwood trees of Armstrong Grove, just 30 minutes away. Visit our beautiful coast line.

If we haven't thought of your specific need, give us a call, we live only a 5 minute walk away from the house. It's important to us you have a great time here.

We make things easy with our keyless entry. We hope to see you soon.

Perfect Home Base in Sonoma County!

It’s a 10+/10!! Larry and Wanda’s Casa de Gamay is so homey, comfortable, clean—and the best stocked VRBO we’ve ever experienced! Communication and recommendations from the owners were top notch. The gas fireplace was a perfect setting for the evenings. Don’t hesitate in booking and hope you enjoy your stay as much as we did!!!

AMAZING HOME AWAY FROM HOME!

We are a retired couple from Niagara-on-the-Lake (Ontario Canada) and stayed here for 18 days. We have rented many homes over the years and this one far exceeded all others. Many other reviews for this place document the extensive amenities, comfortable bedding/towels and well stocked high quality cooking utensils plus storage containers/wrap/foil. This home is as stocked as your own, if not even more - from panty/fridge food, appliances, to bathroom/medicine cabinet items, with multiple choices of brands. Great gas stove and gas BBQ. Super clean and decorated as a home versus a rental property with minimum décor. Larry and Wanda were super hosts and responsive to all our queries. We would definitely choose this place again when coming back to this California area. Truly a home away from home. Thank you Wanda and Larry.

Perfect house and location!

This is the house of our dreams when we travel. It has everything you could possibly need, nice quiet mature neighborhood, beautiful and clean decor and stocked fridge and cabinets! I'm not sure what more you could ask for. We went to San Francisco from the Larkspur ferry, saw the redwoods in the Armstrong forest, etc., etc. Loved, loved it and can't wait to return soon.

Had a great time! Had family over for dinner and they raved about the house. Everything you need is close and most of it already is available when you get to the house. Any issues are handled right away. Appreciated the goodies for guests when we arrived. Will definitely be looking to stay again in future.

Home away from home

When the hosts ask if there is anything they can do, they mean it. They were very communicative before my stay to insure we had everything we needed. The house is very clean and well cared for. The lots of ingredients and other kitchen/food items were stocked and we were welcomed to make free use of them. The house is very convenient for visiting the area and local shopping. It was the perfect place to stay for our visit!

We stayed here one night while attending a wedding down the road. It was SO much nicer than staying in a hotel.

Excellent home and excellent owners

A group of co-workers stayed here when we traveled to Santa Rosa for a 3 day training. Larry’s (owner) instructions were so helpful since we were all arriving at different times of the day. The house was fully stocked and had every convenience. All the beds were comfortable and we enjoyed vegging out in front of the living room fireplace after a long day of training. Even check-out was a breeze! Not your typical HomeAway! I will definitely stay here again. Thank you, Larry and Wanda! You made our stay so much more enjoyable.

Great Property!

We have stayed at many properties over the years and our experience at Casa de Gamay was by far the best. The unit was better than shown in the pictures and the description. The communications from Wanda and Larry were timely (always less than 24 hours) and very helpful. They even sent us pictures of the food stuffs in the pantry and refrigerator prior to our arrival so we knew what groceries to get, although we didn't need much because their kitchen was so well stocked. They even had wine and chocolates waiting for us when we arrived! Truly exceptional hosts!
