This is our second time visiting this beautiful home. It is a gorgeous property with a large manicured backyard that offers peace & calm. At night the yard is framed in soft lights which was gorgeous. Also, added since our last visit at the end of the yard, a large gazebo with comfortable seating & tables for another great seating area. The home itself is bright & airy & decorated with Julie’s treasures from her travels. The fireplace in the living room is an added bonus for warmth & ambiance. We loved the ease to walk to local restaurants, Farmstead,Pizzeria Tra Vigne around the corner & then up Main Street to Cook , Market & Ray Ray’s tacos. And of course a few wine tasting rooms. The location is ideal. Julie was quick & so easy to communicate with to answer a question or two. We are already booked for next year & can’t wait to return! Thank you Julie for another wonderful stay in your special home away from home!

Perfect Artist Solitude

As an artist, I'm always looking for properties that offer the ability to reconnect with nature and offer a peaceful respite to the hustle and bustle of everyday. This home was it! I was able to relax and rejuvenate in the comfort of this well-appointed home with a lovely, serene backyard. I spent every morning and every evening outside. The golden hours are perfect here. I was able to complete an artwork here -- my washi tape artwork - red wine goblet. It was just what this artist needed. Thank you!

Amazing location and great home

We loved our 6 week stay at this home. The location allowed us to walk to all our dinners and the grocery store during our entire trip. The backyard was fantastic and allowed us to enjoy the beautiful weather with all the multiple sitting areas. We really enjoyed going to sunshine grocery and cooking in the kitchen with the professional range. Our host was very gracious and kind and checked in multiple times to ensure everything was going well and we were enjoying our stay. Highly recommend.

Our 3/12 week stay in January was a perfect blend of beauty comfort & tranquility! The beautifully decorated home with antiques was bright,open & felt like a warm hug. The kitchen was large & functioned well. The bedrooms comfortable with pretty bedding & furniture. The master with lovely views of the expansive & serene backyard with access through french doors was ideal. The living room fireplace felt "old world" & such a warm pretty touch to the home. We absolutely loved walking in the neighborhood, quiet & quaint & close to St Helena shopping, restaurants & wine tasting rooms! Exploring Calistoga's restaurants & wineries a bonus also. We were always so happy to return to our haven here!Thank you Julie for a fabulous stay! We are looking forward to our return next year & appreciate all you did to make us feel so welcome.

Adorable home with a wonderful back garden. Host was very responsive and there were no issues. Location can't be beat. Only thing I would suggest would be to have fewer accessories, more drawers and kitchen cabinets available so renters have more space for their items but regardless the place is wonderful! We can't wait to go back!

We very much enjoyed our stay at Julie’s house! The house is beautifully decorated and the art throughout is absolutely amazing. The backyard is an oasis! Each area having its own vibe or section with art and decorations, flowers are amazing. The house is in a perfect location. You can walk to downtown St Helena - shops, restaurants, tasting rooms all close by. We also enjoyed how close all the wonderful hiking options are. Julie gives so many details and really takes pride in her beautiful home. She was quite helpful and responsive, fabulous host!

St, Helena

This is a wonderful property. My lower rating is the result of all the pollen and tree droppings covering everything. Of course, this may be due to the timing of the year and is situational and may not have any bearing for others.. But unfortunately, I had to cut my stay short because of the severe pollen which created an adverse allergic reaction, making it intolerable for me to stay. I do not have a history of allergies and this was my first time experiencing such a reaction. There is no way of knowing that would be a problem. So sad because the property is so beautiful and ideally located.
