About this property

Healdsburg Wine Country Getaway with Panoramic Valley Views -5 min from downtown

Our house was extensively remodeled in 2021. We upgraded with a Gourmet Kitchen, dining room, family room and all 3 bathrooms (new vanities/showers). We widened all 3 sliding doors so you have incredible views from the kitchen/dining room/family room/ master bathroom.

Save money on dining out with our amazing new kitchen! It has everything you'll need to prepare a great meal that you can eat while sitting on the deck looking at the view. Would rather BBQ? Sit on the deck while monitoring your food in the BBQ. Don't like to cook? Pick up food in downtown Healdsburg and bring it up. Downtown is only 1.5 miles away!

Healdsburg Bliss House is a noted unofficial hillside landmark. This comfortable open floor plan ranch style home is high up on a ridge above the stunningly gorgeous Dry Creek Wine Valley. Just 1.5 miles from downtown Healdsburg, the home is a blissfully peaceful escape surrounded by 80 acres of lush vineyards. (.6 miles down West Dry Creek rd). The 100ft deck and expansive windows provide endless opportunities to take in the literally 100 mile-180 degree views of vineyards, forests, mountains, big skies and florid sunsets. Watch the hot air balloons rise to the south or the plumes of steam from The Geysers in the surrounding northeast mountains. Bring binoculars and check out the myriad of birds swooping by. Read on the deck, bbq while sipping wine and taking in the views. An outdoor dining table for 6 is a commanding location from which to dine and leisurely watch the sunset. The master suite opens to the deck and the spacious gourmet kitchen/dining/family great room has views as does the generous living room.

Bliss House Hillside Setting: This truly unique location is up a 1/4 mile shared gated and paved drive which is in great condition and suitable for all types of cars.

Bring the camera and the binoculars and no matter what season-warm outerwear as evenings can be cool.

House has 3 bedrooms. Master has a King bed and AMAZING views as well as an attached bathroom with soaker tub. Other 2 bedrooms have queen beds and are on the back side of the house

Kitchen: Has everything you need! New and updated. Has an island with stools so you can sit and talk to whomever is working in the kitchen. Kitchen has Keurig coffee maker (also a drip is you like that better). 4 burner gas range with plenty of pots/pans to cook what you need. Rather BBQ? Thats located on the deck.

Parking: Lots of easy free parking in the driveway! (4 cars max)

Some notable comments from our reviews:
"The kitchen had all the needed equipment for gourmet meal prep, which we did nightly, to take advantage of the wonderful atmosphere of the house."
"The owners provide everything you need for a great stay and have a pretty well stocked kitchen - lots of cooking supplies, dishes, etc."
"We enjoyed sitting on the deck each morning and evening- so much so that we cancelled our dinner plans the last night to enjoy sitting on the deck. Book this place if you can!"

The Weather: From April through August, most afternoons are pretty and bright with breezes. Mornings and nights are usually cool and sometimes the early morning fog comes in to kiss the grapes. Temperatures can range 30-40 degrees in a 24 hour period. September and October is almost always warm and there is less early morning mist or fog. However, there are exceptions...so don't forget the pullover or wrap. Even in winter, when we get the rains that make this such a lovely place...there are many many break through days with crisp sunshine.

Note: We do have some security camera's outside the house (not inside). They are not actively monitored and are in place to see around the house (we had a water leak once and had no way of knowing, with the camera's we can).

Note: Our internet is usually 12mbs or a bit higher. Its worked for me for zoom meetings. But you can't have a 4 or 5 people trying to stream video/download files at the same time. Internet access is limited in our location (no fiber/coax), but its usually fairly fast.

Healdsburg
Great view over Healdsburg. Very open layout which is very nice. Sit on the 60’ deck with coffee in the morning to watch the sun rise over the mountains or in the evening with a glass of wine to watch the wild turkey and other birds. There is not much walking without a drive into town since it is gated and private property around the house. Although you can walk up and down the 200 yard driveway (steep climb back up for those who have a difficult time walking). We enjoyed our stay.

Ladies birthday trip getaway
We loved every bit of our time in lovely healdsburg! This property was PERFECT too. Comfortable beds , lots of lounge space and an open concept kitchen and dining room with views of the nearby vineyards :) Location was also amazing, five minutes from healdsburg plaza, 30 minutes from Armstrong redwood forest and quirky Guerneville, and an hour from Jenner and the beautiful Sonoma coast. Peter our host was helpful and responsive when needed. We couldnt have asked for a better place to spend family time! :)

Wonderful Rental
This home is the perfect getaway, but still close enough to town that it’s easy to enjoy Healdsburg.

Wonderful Stay!
The house itself is only a few minutes from downtown Healdsburg, but seems far away because it's located in the middle of vineyards, is very private, and very quiet. The view out the back overlooks the vineyards and throughout the valley. The beds were very comfortable, the kitchen was well equipped with all that we needed, and was very clean upon our arrival. Peter communicated everything that we needed to know and was a great host!

About the host

Hosted by Peter Carroll

Host profile image
Peter is the 3rd generation to work this property. Irv originally bought the land below and behind the house in the 1930's. Peter's mother, Andie grew up in the house down the hill from the current house. Irv was a farmer in the area where he grew crops and raised cattle and sheep. Andie was a longtime school teacher in the bay area.

Currently, Peter is managing the rental property and wishes he had more time to spend there!

Why they chose this property

The property was inherited from my Andie's father and was part of the property where Andie was raised and grew up. The view is amazing, the people are nice and the town is small and has a certain charm. Its location is perfect as you get to live in the country, but only be 5 minutes from downtown Healdsburg.

What makes this property unique

Incredible views of the valley from the deck. Quiet location a very short drive to downtown.
