Pool + Pickleball Court + Firepit | Private Sonoma Valley Retreat

Set in the heart of Sonoma Valley, Ripple is a peaceful wine country retreat where privacy, space, and classic California charm come together. Surrounded by mature trees and open grounds, this inviting home is designed for slow mornings, sun-filled afternoons, and relaxed evenings shared with your favorite people.

The outdoor space is a true highlight. Spend warm days lounging by the black-bottom pool with a sunning ledge, perfect for cooling off while soaking up the California sunshine. Unwind in rocking chairs beneath the trees or gather around the firepit as the sun sets over the valley. For guests who enjoy staying active, the private pickleball court adds a rare and memorable touch—ideal for friendly matches before returning poolside.

Inside, the home feels warm, spacious, and made for connection. The large living room centers around a cozy fireplace, creating an inviting place to relax after a day of vineyard hopping. The chef’s kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to prepare meals at home, while the dining table for eight sets the scene for long, leisurely dinners paired with local Sonoma wines.

Ripple comfortably sleeps six across three bedrooms. The primary suite features a king bed and a private ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower, offering a quiet retreat at day’s end. One additional bedroom includes a queen bed, while the third bedroom offers two twin beds that can be converted into a king upon request. These rooms share a full bathroom with a shower/tub combo. A washer and dryer add everyday convenience for longer stays.

Perfectly positioned along scenic wine country routes, Ripple places you close to Sonoma Plaza, renowned tasting rooms, and celebrated farm-to-table dining. Nearby Glen Ellen offers hiking, local markets, and charming small-town energy, while the surrounding valley invites leisurely drives through rolling vineyards. Whether you’re here to explore, unwind, or reconnect, Ripple delivers an effortless Sonoma escape that feels both secluded and close to it all.

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.
