Welcome home to Baker Lane Retreat + Studio, your personal slice of Sonoma serenity nestled just outside charming Sebastopol. Designed for connection, comfort, and a little indulgence, this five-bedroom, four-bathroom retreat blends wine country elegance with the ease of home—perfect for gathering friends and family in one of Northern California's most iconic regions.
Step into the heart of the home, where a spacious living room invites you to kick back on the oversized sectional, gather around the fireplace, or queue up a movie night on the big-screen TV. Whether you're hosting game night around the pool table or sharing stories over dinner at the farmhouse-style table for six (plus extra bar seating for casual bites), Baker Lane Retreat + Studio brings everyone together with style and soul.
The fully equipped kitchen makes cooking a breeze—complete with a gas range, full suite of appliances, and plenty of counter space for wine and cheese spreads (or pancakes and coffee if that's your vibe).
Outdoors, the real magic unfolds. A private pool sparkles in the sunshine, while the shaded sunroom, sprawling patio, BBQ grill, and fire pit create the ultimate setting for lazy afternoons, starlit dinners, and everything in between. Multiple seating areas mean there's always space to savor a moment alone—or toast to togetherness.
Sleeping arrangements are as versatile as they are comfortable. Three well-appointed bedrooms anchor the main home, including a playful bunk room perfect for kids or friends and two rooms with California kings. Two detached studio-style bedrooms offer added privacy, ideal for couples or anyone craving a quiet nook to recharge.
Baker Lane Retreat + Studio is your gateway to the best of Sonoma County—minutes from downtown Sebastopol's farm-to-table restaurants, antique shops, and quirky local art. Take a scenic drive along the Bohemian Highway—a charming 10-mile stretch just 10 minutes away—where redwoods meet rolling hills and you'll discover quaint towns en route to Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve. You’re also just 20 minutes from the dramatic coastal cliffs of Bodega Bay, where Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds was filmed. Closer to home, Sebastopol hosts Peace Town’s free summer concert series, bringing live music to venues around town every Wednesday.
Explore nearby vineyards, hike the scenic trails of Laguna de Santa Rosa, or venture to the rugged Pacific coast just a short drive away. And don’t miss the acclaimed wineries of the Russian River Valley, including Dutton Estate, Merry Edwards, Iron Horse, and Lynmar Estate—all within easy reach of Baker Lane. When the day is done, you'll love coming home to this peaceful hideaway.
Whether you're planning a wine-fueled weekend, a family getaway, or a restorative escape with your crew—Baker Lane Retreat + Studio is where memories are made.

Known for its vineyards, local cuisine, and nature parks, Sonoma County (45 minutes from San Francisco) offers a wide array of activities for those looking to retreat from city life. Touring local wineries, dining at farm-to-table restaurants, and visiting world-class spas are classic ways to experience the area. While unwinding is certainly the attitude in Sonoma, activities like horseback riding, hot-air ballooning, and kayaking attract those looking for a little adventure. In the evening, watch the sunset over the vineyards and rolling hills, wine glass in hand.
