Wildlife Viewing Overlooking Sonoma Creek In The Heart Of The Wine Country!

Take in all the Wine Country has to offer from this centrally located cozy apartment overlooking Sonoma Creek! With nearby great wineries, tasting rooms, restaurants, and shops, you'll find lots to enjoy in the area. You can take it all in on the 2 complimentary bicycles parked in the shed!

Please note! For a reservation to be accepted, you MUST tell us a bit about who's staying, and what brings you to the Wine Country.

Guests who book during the winter / rainy season may get a special whitewater treat! Since the Bungalow is overlooking Sonoma Creek, you will enjoy an exciting show if there is a rainstorm, and the rapids get more turbulent! Part of the deck is covered, so you can enjoy a thrill during a rainstorm! (Don't worry, you are safely high above the creek in the ravine below.)

The Bungalow (Sonoma TOT Cert # 1436N ) features a beautiful kitchen, hardwood floors, a cozy gas 'Franklin' stove for cool nights,, and a sumptuous new Beautyrest queen bed and awesome high thread count Egyptian cotton sheets. Fast internet, cable and internet-enabled TV let you watch cable TV or stream movies. While the apartment is delightfully furnished (we own a furniture store!), the real attraction is the deck overlooking the creek. From here, you can sit for hours watching the steady stream of wildlife (deer, mostly) as they make their way along the trails along the year-round creek. When the rains start, the creek goes from a lazy creek to a roaring stream - with rapids just a bit past the bungalow, giving great sound effects. The deck features comfortable patio furniture and an optional gas firepit to enjoy a glass of wine around at the end of a busy day!

The Queen bed is a new Beautyrest that is moderately firm. Some have said it is too soft. Some have said its too firm. It is what it is! The bed is covered with an Organic Cotton mattress protector/pad. High thread count Egyptian cotton sheets complete the ensemble. Spare blankets and pillows are in the closet.

The bathroom features a curved glass shower enclosure and a newly tiled shower. We have just added a Bidet Toilet - we tried one at a Vacation Rental ourselves and loved it - so we added one for you to enjoy as well! It features a heated seat and warm water. Heavenly!

While there are so many activities nearby, we expect that at least one of the days of your visit you'll grab a couple of bottles of wine and want to spend the whole day at the cozy Lazy Oak Creekside Bungalow, enjoying the magical surroundings!

** NOTE** MAX OVERNIGHT OCCUPANCY - 2 PERSONS ONLY ** (Including children)

IMPORTANT NOTE: To ensure your booking request is accepted, please be sure to tell us a little about WHO is staying, WHERE you are from, and WHAT brings you to the Wine Country! You can read about who we are in our VRBO profile, so its a 2-way privacy street!
Coin Laundry machine is located outside the unit under cover.

Very cozy and comfortable
We spent three nights to visit wine country. Found everything clean and welcoming. Had to purchase coffee and did not know the fire pit was an extra (though nominal) charge. Chilly nights but warmed up quickly with cute little Franklin stove. Bidet was fun;). Would recommend!

Weekend getaway for a wedding
The bungalow is just as described. I have no complaints! Spacious enough for my husband and I and had all the necessary amenities. Great porch but unable to take advantage of it due to the rain. Stayed 2 nights as we were attending a wedding and it was great driving distance to the wedding venue in Sonoma. Would def stay again for the great price, cute home and great location to Sonoma plaza and all the wonderful wineries.

Bay Area Vacation
Great home base to visit a ton of destinations including museums in Sacramento (Stanford Mansion, CA State Railroad Museum); hiking state and national parks (Jack London, Muir Woods, Mt. Tamalpais, Alcatraz); various wineries in Sonoma Valley, Dry Creek Valley, and Russian River Valley; restaurants and brewpubs in Tiburon, Sonoma, Healdsburg and Santa Rosa. Outstanding number of activities close by and we barely scratched the surface. And through it all we had quiet, comfortable mornings and nights in our Lazy Creekside Bungalow.
