Herb Retreat

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Beautifully and thoughtfully designed in modern-farmhouse style, Herb Retreat is an exceptional home base for wine-tasting, exploring the Russian River, and entertaining in comfort and style. Enjoy a private heated swimming pool, an expansive terrace for lounging and dining, and an unbeatable location where the best of Sonoma County is at your fingertips.

This four-bedroom home sits near the heart of Windsor, with Healdsburg to the north, Santa Rosa to the south, and the Russian River, Napa, and Sonoma Valleys all within a short and scenic drive. As you return home from your daily excursions, you'll be greeted by wondrous outdoor spaces - take a dip in the heated pool, relax poolside with a glass of local wine, or make use of the built-in outdoor kitchen and dining table to host an afternoon barbecue. As the sun begins to set, you can gather around the firepit or move into the pool house rec room to play games and watch movies on the big-screen TV.

The interior of the home is another beautiful space for entertaining, offering hardwood floors, high-end furnishings, and central air conditioning. Past the entry hall and powder room is an open, light-filled great room, the heart of which is the gourmet kitchen. It's a fantastic space for the enthusiastic home chef, offering professional-grade appliances (including a French-door refrigerator, a wine cooler, and a gas range), a spacious island with bar seats for four, and an adjacent dining table hewn from natural wood. Completing this space is an inviting sitting area with dual sofas, a big-screen TV, and a gas fireplace.

At night, you'll find that the bedrooms are wonderfully separated for privacy. There are three on the main floor, each in its own corner, including a primary suite with direct patio access, a flatscreen TV, and a spa-like private bathroom. The other two bedrooms on the ground floor share a bathroom between them. The charming fourth bedroom and third full bathroom are upstairs, as is a dedicated office where you can escape to take the occasional work call.

Family get together
This property is stunning. It is equipped with everything you need and more both inside and outside. It's is very clean and the beds are super comfortable. We stayed here in August and the pool was perfect temperature to play in all day. We loved the pool house and having cocktails around the fire pit. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful home and location
We stayed with friends for 2 nights and we all enjoyed the house so much. I only have 2 issues, and they certainly are not deal breakers and I still give the property 5 stars, but it would have been nice to have a home instruction manual. We couldn't get the fireplace to work, not did we know there was a key to the pool house that had a peleton. It would have been nice to have had access to that room.

A five-star stay with one caveat
This home was spectacular for my sister’s 50th birthday trip! Everything about the home felt luxe and comfortable. We made use of the fire pit and pool every day. The little details like the wine fridge and and having some extra spices that previous guests had left made prepping our breakfasts super easy. If you’re traveling in and plan on cooking, no need to buy olive oil/ salt & pepper, etc. There are a lot of kitchen items to use and all the pots and pans you could ever need! Super enjoyable rental and so convenient for getting around wine country- we hope to be back! A word of caution: The home is listed as “no pets” and there was definitely a dog bowl/dog treats in the closet and the seat at the end of our bed had animal hair on it. I’m wildly allergic to dogs so initially I freaked out, but using my inhalers and allergy meds helped. I guess that’s the risk with a rental where no one is checking you in. Some people may not care about house rules but it could have been a huge problem for my lungs. I hope that Vacasa does a better job of monitoring animals or being clear if the owner of the home has any animals.

Great house!
The house was very clean, beautifully decorated and very well equipped. We were very comfortable and really loved the private back yard and pool area. Fans were provided for 2 of the main floor bedrooms but could have used one more as it did get a little warm at night (although certainly not unbearable)

Beautiful home in a quiet neighborhood
I’ll start by saying the overall experience was pleasant. Our families enjoyed the pool, the additional movie area in the pool house and the spaciousness of the property. I was not able to get house rules until I booked the VRBO (even after contacting the host). When booking, the site states that once you’ve booked, you cannot get a full refund, because we were booking within three weeks of the trip. The place looked so appealing that we jumped for it. Once we received the house rules, we had second thoughts, but if we cancelled, we would only get 1/2 our money back. Quiet hours are stated at 10 pm. Once receiving the booking info, the rules state 9 pm and quiet hours literally mean no activities outside, even if quiet. During the summer, it doesn’t get dark until 9:30 pm. Why have a fire pit offered, if you can’t even use it? There was always a rush after pool time to get dinner made and still have time to enjoy the rest of the property before having to go inside for the night. The house is wonderful. It is stocked with everyday needs: towels, most kitchen appliances, pantry basics, bedding, extra blankets. The pool does not disappoint- it is as beautiful as indicated. The pool house also stores lots of blow up pool floats and a plug-in air pump.

Beautiful new/renovated home
This house was simply spectacular - brand new/recently renovated house with large backyard/pool area that is great for groups/entertaining. Great layout with bedrooms at the end of the house and an open kitchen/family room that comfortably accommodated group gatherings. Pool house and pool deck provided additional gathering space making for an amazing weekend for a group of friends celebrating a 50th birthday. A great house that I would highly recommend and would definitely stay here again while exploring Sonoma wine country.

Beautiful windsor home!
We rented this home for a girls trip. The house was absolutely amazing and beautiful. I initially was concerned with it being four bedrooms 3.5 baths at 1365 sq feet-but the home definitely felt much bigger the backyard was absolutely gorgeous and the rooms were big bright and beautiful and easily accommodated our party of 10!

Worth every penny!
We stayed here for our wedding weekend in Healdsburg, along with our two boys (13, 9). It was the perfect, relaxing, large space with a fantastic pool and comfortable well appointed and stocked house. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location is close to downtown Windsor and hotels where our guests stayed and Healdsburg, with easy access to the 101. We live in driving distance and would absolutely stay here for another getaway locally to have a lovely home base from which to explore and enjoy the area. It was lovely for our wedding being able to shuttle back and forth to have a few family and friends visit during the day, hang out by the pool and share meals. Very relaxing spot as well. Thank you for a wonderful stay!!!
