Barn holiday rentals in California

The minute we walked in, we loved it. It was exactly what we were looking for, a darling cabin in the woods, but still close to everything. Rustic and charming and private but so easy to get in and out. No winding steep driveway or anything like that. Just pull off the road and you’re in another world. We made good use of the hot tub as well walking into town and hiking. We will want to come back.

My wife had stayed here before and thoroughly enjoyed it. That’s what prompted us to stay this time. We only had the ability to stay one night, but it was nice and comfortable. It is definitely quiet.

We had an incredible stay at this serene Airbnb nestled in the vineyards. The location was absolutely perfect—peaceful, private, and surrounded by natural beauty, yet just a short drive to both Pismo Beach and San Luis Obispo. It was the ideal balance of relaxation and easy access to coastal activities, wineries, and charming downtown spots. The home itself was spotless and thoughtfully designed, with cozy touches that made it feel warm and welcoming. Waking up to vineyard views and enjoying a cup of coffee on the patio was such a treat. The hosts were responsive and kind, providing helpful recommendations for local dining and things to do in the area.

Friendly host, and comfortable stay.

We had an amazing stay in this lovely home. The entire home was spotless, the running water was warm, and the property was peaceful. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking to get away.

I have stayed here 3 times and each time is lovely. The house is comfortable and clean and the landscape is beautiful. Didn't want to leave.

We had a lovely holiday stay! Family of 3 in town for the holidays, the unit is totally private, cozy and quiet! Kate is very nice and responsive. Super comfy! There are very quiet tenants in the front building. The neighborhood is very nice to walk. Easy to walk to shopping and restaurants. Parking provided and plenty of street parking as well. Highly recommend!

Extraordinary property in the hills above Santa Rosa on the road to Calistoga. There's a bit of a drive in but you get used to it and it feels very private, exclusive, bucolic, pick your adjective. The barn is large, tastefully renovated and extremely well furnished, much attention to detail. It was a bit chilly at night and it's a big old barn but the heaters worked fine and lowering the shades blocked any draft. The kitchen was very well equipped, all modern appliances, easy to use. What's so special is the property itself, you are literally in a hidden valley with viewpoints over Sonoma and vines and fruit trees and sheep and goats and big old guardian dogs and hares and owls and nobody to bother you. Ran into Thai checking things out once, it's a farm, cheerful man, that was it. Then you drive into Santa Rosa or Kenwood or Calistoga and you're in true Wine Country sophistication, of course we went to wine estates and good restaurants. It's very cool and very special.

We booked The Barn for our wedding weekend and really enjoyed staying here! I loved the stone shower and the high ceilings, the kitchen was beautiful and it was very spacious. The windows offered panoramic views and our friends were giddy with excitement about the cowgirl decor. We felt right at home! Christine, thank you so much for saving my bouquet for me. I’ve never had a host do something so kind for me and it meant a lot. To anyone else reading I highly recommend the Barn if you’re looking for somewhere to relax and unplug :)

April’s place worked out great for us: close to the ocean and quality restaurants. This was our second stay, and we look forward to another return.

My family and I absolutely loved staying here. It's in a gorgeous location with a view of the ocean from the deck. You can hear the waves in the distance. There's a hot tub that's in a beautiful spot beside a running creek with a waterfall. The house is clean, spacious, and very quiet. There's a wonderful little trail from the house that connects to the Mt Davis Trail, which is one of my favorite trails on Mt Tam, and is a beautiful little walk to town. Annie was wonderful - friendly, kind, helpful, and flexible. Would definitely stay again.

My family and I enjoyed a wonderful stay! The hot tub was probably the children's favorite part. It was the perfect staycation to unwind after the end of the school year. The home was clean and just as pictured. We also enjoyed the record player. The host was also very responsive and there was clearly a lot of effort to ensure guests had everything needed.

Skip and Lara were amazing hosts. The place was peaceful and beautiful. we enjoyed picking fresh oranges, grapefruit, and lemons and Lara gave us fresh avocados from their field. Our kids really enjoyed seeing the animals and going to the pool. Skip and Lara were very friendly and helpful hosts. We stayed for 5 nights and could stay a few more days. thank you Skip and Lara.

Great little spot. Good use of space. Comfy

The host was very responsive and quick to answer. He was very flexible when we had to adjust our reservation. Great location, just off the main road with so many winery’s. One thing I would note is that the space only had blinds. The windows in front of the bed were very bright and did not block much light so I was woken up very early by the sun. Just a personal preference if you struggle to sleep without enough darkness.

We had a great 1-night stay. Lynn and Peter were friendly and responsive hosts. The property is off the beaten path, and they provided thorough directions for getting there. We arrived late at night and they had turned on the outside lights and fireplace for us. We appreciated the snacks and drinks they provided. The bed was very comfortable and the towels super soft. A trail leading to a tranquil forest is steps away from the door. Just a note that many of the windows do not have any coverings, so you may want to bring a sleep mask. 😊

The carriage house was so delightful. We loved the coziness, quietness and overall special place. We loved being able to have our dog join us. We walked everywhere and would come back to rest and read. It was a lovely place and Khristina gave us so many great ideas for coffee, lunch and dinner. We had a wonderful time. You cannot beat the location!

Had a great stay at Tracy’s home in Dry Creek. Beautiful home, fun decor, clean, and exactly as described. Beautiful setting and views, and great proximity to visit downtown Healdsburg and wineries. Great set-up for 2 couples with the main floor living space and one bedroom/bath and a separate second bedroom/bath on lower level with separate entrance. Kitchenette was perfect for putting together simple breakfast/lunch/snacks. Tracy was in communication and responsive during our stay. Would love to return & would recommend!

It’s hard to put into words how incredible this place is…peaceful, beautiful and absolute perfection! You feel like you are in a relaxing, quiet little slice of heaven but are only minutes away from so much. Every little detail had been thought of, including the kindest extras from Natalie and Glen, who are the most incredible hosts! If you appreciate kind, genuinely friendly people, and feeling like you are home away from home, you will love staying here. This place is a dream! (I never wanted to leave…actually brought my mother by after check out to admire the beauty of this peaceful setting ❤️)

We really enjoyed our stay at the house. Everything was clean , multiple comfortable rooms and beds. The pool was a blast! And the outdoor area was great for breakfasts, late dinners and stargazing. We will be back!

Overall, the stay was good. The property is well appointed and as described. The location was convenient, and the host was friendly and helpful. Would book again!

Our stay at The Foal House was absolutely wonderful. The barndominium was so charming—every detail was thoughtfully curated, and it was clear that a lot of care went into creating a welcoming space. Cynthia had fresh-picked lemons, oranges, and herbs waiting for us upon arrival, which was such a lovely touch. Although it’s a bit of a drive out into the country, Cynthia made sure we were well aware in advance. The drive itself was beautiful, and once we arrived, the peaceful, serene setting made it more than worth it. The home was spotless, the kitchen was fully equipped for any kind of cooking we wanted to do, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. If we’re ever back in the area, we would absolutely love to stay here again!

Our stay was wonderful...the house was as described. We enjoyed our stay!

The stay was awesome! It honestly looked just like the photos. Not one time did I think that the views or house was underwhelming or not portrayed well in the photos.
