Terra Vina is a private wine country retreat on a vineyard a few minutes from downtown Sonoma, managed by AvantStay. Its neighbors are among the valley's most storied names. Gundlach Bundschu, founded in 1858 and still in the hands of the founding family, is close by, as is Buena Vista, the winery Agoston Haraszthy established in 1857, and Scribe completes a remarkable trio within easy reach. Sonoma Plaza, the Mission and the Sonoma State Historic Park are a short drive, and the Sonoma Overlook Trail makes a good morning hike. Inside and out, the house has a crisp, elegant look, and the idea is simple: soak up the sunshine, sip world-class wine and settle into a slice of Sonoma serenity.

The home sleeps six. The primary bedroom has a king bed, a TV and its own bath, and three more bedrooms each have a queen. A living room with a fireplace and several sofas, a large dining table, and a full kitchen with barstool seating make the inside easy for a small group. The real living happens in the private backyard, where a pool and hot tub sit beside a shaded gazebo, with an outdoor dining area, a custom grill station, and bocce and horseshoes for the hours between tastings. As evening comes, the sun goes down over the vineyards and hills. The spa is heated at no charge, and the pool is solar heated from May through September. Parking takes four cars, and pets are not allowed.
