The Ladder House is an elegant wine country get-away located in the lovely village of Kenwood. In the midst of Sonoma Valley wine country, you are at the center of it all. A short drive from San Francisco and the rest of the Bay Area, there are more than fifteen vineyards / tasting rooms within walking distance (~ 1 mile) of our little cottage and another twenty plus wineries within biking distance (~3-5 miles). If you are coming for the wine, you have picked the right location. Start by enjoying a complimentary bottle of wine from one of the local area's wineries the day you arrive. You're likely to want to visit some of the local tasting rooms all nearby. See the activities page on our website for more on the local wineries and other activities. You can find the link to our site just above the Owners Profile below. Planned Winery Tours We provide our customers with details of local wineries by area with suggestions based on your favorite varietals along with who to ask for at each winery. Makes for a great pre-planned tour should you not want to have to do the work yourself. Ask us about it when booking the Ladder House. An Adventure Have more than just wine on your mind? Sonoma Valley is alive with activities and places to go. Visit nearby Morton’s Warm Springs for a swim and picnic by the creek, spend the day out on the coast and have dinner with a view of the ocean, take a bike ride and enjoy the picturesque local scenery or go for a hike in nearby Jack London park or Sugarloaf Ridge park. Sugarloaf is also home to the Robert Ferguson Observatory where you can spend an evening star gazing. Hike Mount Baldwin, enjoy the majestic views of Northern California and spy Golden Gate Bridge on a clear day. Sonoma Square is just a 15 minute drive and you can usually find a major event going on each weekend. We have put together a book of activities which you can enjoy while staying at our peaceful cottage with each activity rated by amount of time required. From a two hour jaunt to day long adventures, we hope you will find several activities to enjoy. Dining There are several great restaurants in Kenwood, all providing a great meal and ambiance. Slightly farther away in Glen Ellen, a 5 min drive, are additional establishments offering a great variety of offerings, all top-shelf. Or venture a little farther south to Sonoma or north to Santa Rosa for yet more options. For more dining details, see our website activities page.

Oct 4, 2014 #### Quaint, Quiet, and Tasteful We stayed at the Cypress House for 3 nights for a Sonoma wedding weekend. The house is situated at the end of a quiet street in Kenwood, and was walking distance to many wineries as advertised. It was a wonderful stay and I would recommend this house to small groups of friends and family. ##### Brian W. ### 8/10 Good #### Suzanne S. Sep 16, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Ladder House The house was exactly as pictured, described and very clean. It was perfect for our needs and location was great. The owner left 2 for 1 wine tasting coupons for us and they were a great addition. Area is beautiful and there were so many wineries ver close. Just be careful of the floor as shoes pick up stones in the walkway and are brought into the house. I would definitely put a cement walkway up to the house to stop that. If we ever get to this area again I would stay here. ##### Suzanne S. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brad T.

The house was clean and quaint. Hot tub on the deck was a nice touch after a long day of wineries. I loved the wine that Rob gave us. It was nice to feel welcomed. I definitely recommend this place. ##### Brad T. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Mar 28, 2012 #### visiting Ca wine country.

This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Aug 28, 2014 #### A Gem! This is the perfect property for two couples. The home itself is very clean, comfortable, and tastefully decorated. It sits on a generous sized lot in a park-like setting with a huge deck and hot tub in the backyard. Very quiet, peaceful, and relaxing. The location of the home is perfect as well-- a stone's throw away from many fantastic wineries. I highly recommend this property for anyone who wants the feeling of a home away from home. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joann B. Jun 7, 2016 #### Perfect place! We visited wine country with another couple and the home was perfect! So much more quaint and comfortable. Great location that allowed us to visit Sonoma wineries for a couple of days, and then Napa wineries. Great wine tastings within walking distance too! We took advantage of wine on the deck at the end of the day. While too tired to go far, we ordered from Cafe Citti (recommended by Rob) and brought it home. Wonderful food! We will definitely be back, and highly recommend to others. ##### Joann B.

No wonder why Rob and the Cypress House receives great reviews! Everything from the detailed winery listing to the check out went smoothly. He made the trip easy as we wouldnt have made the best use of our time during our two days. The home is well appointed with anything that you need. I wouldn't hesitate to stay again! ##### Eric B. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Mar 28, 2012 #### Wonderful time in Kenwood My husband and I spent 4 nights in this super-clean and well-appointed house. Our host, Rob, thought of every detail to make us feel comfortable and cared for, including setting up a special tasting at nearby Mayo Winery. The location is so close to wineries and restaurants, but when you arrive at this lovely property you feel totally secluded. The kitchen is well-stocked; provisions included cereal, starbucks coffee, Benziger oil and balsamic vinegar, etc., and of course that wonderful bottle of wine! Enjoyed the hot tub and the privacy. We would definitely stay here again!

Two king beds, great full baths along with very clean & functional living room, kitchen and awesome deck/patio. Great landscaping background for pictures nestled at the end of a dead end street which made it so peaceful! Wasn't sure how to take the advertising of 'walking distance' but truly close & easy! I have told many other friends about this and would look to spend time here again. ##### K2bHFCC9SAZm3hFvZ2CNAtu/mWe4a30qVvp2N3BxqVeZyqP97fjbHT+p6ubAA8SqY4W1LTg8bOWKRIbo4ipwOAeqwpv/pUGqqdbV K.

My friends and I enjoyed this cute, cozy, clean house located in a quiet, convenient neighborhood. It had everything we needed from kitchen amenities to comfy beds to a nice, private backyard. It was our first time in Sonoma, so a helpful bonus for us was Rob’s, suggestions about where to go. (Ledson was my fav!) One of the best things about this property is that it’s walking distance to lots of wine tasting. We would love to come back and stay at the Ladder house again!!

The location was very close to all of the places that we wanted to see and we had no problem finding plenty of wines to sample. We really enjoyed walking around the town of Kenwood and the surrounding hills. The people we met were extremely friendly and willing to share their knowledge of the area. The house was very comfortable and well equipped. We enjoyed a bottle of wine while sitting in the hot tub almost every night. I would go back in a second!@ ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Grand Hyatt Indian Wells Resort & Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Indian-Wells-Resort-Spa.h16130.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Desert Springs Villas I](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Desert-Springs-Villas-I.h661796.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Desert-Springs-Resort-Spa.h17123.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Huntington-Beach-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Huntington-Beach-Resort-And-Spa.h890502.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ritz-Carlton, Rancho Mirage](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Ritz-Carlton.h23876.Hotel-Information) > > [Tommy Bahama Miramonte Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Miramonte-Indian-Wells-Resort-Spa.h16768.Hotel-Information) > > [La Quinta Resort & Club, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-La-Quinta-Resort-Club.h10916.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Embarc-Palm-Desert.h328421.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Mission Hills Resort & Villas for COACHELLA 2020 (1st weekend)](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Cochella-Stay-At-The-Westin-Mission-Hills-Resort-Villas.h34078793.Hotel-Information) > > [Great Wolf Lodge Anaheim, CA](https://www.expedia.ca/Garden-Grove-Hotels-Great-Wolf-Lodge-Anaheim.h14910044.Hotel-Information) > > [Renaissance Esmeralda Resort & Spa, Indian Wells](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Renaissance-Esmeralda-Resort-Spa.h12274.Hotel-Information) > > [Omni Rancho Las Palmas Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Omni-Rancho-Las-Palmas-Resort-Spa.h1703.Hotel-Information) > > [Paradise Point Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Paradise-Point-Resort-Spa.h3731.Hotel-Information) > > [Agua Caliente Casino Rancho Mirage](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Agua-Caliente-Resort-Casino-Spa-Rancho-Mirage.h2020169.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ritz-Carlton, Half Moon Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Half-Moon-Bay-Hotels-The-Ritz-Carlton.h602927.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Rancho Mirage Golf Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Westin-Mission-Hills-Golf-Resort-Spa.h4124.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Orange County](https://www.expedia.ca/Garden-Grove-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Orange-County.h15965.Hotel-Information) > > [San Diego Mission Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-San-Diego-Mission-Bay-Resort.h25598.Hotel-Information) > > [Ace Hotel and Swim Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Ace-Hotel-And-Swim-Club.h22864.Hotel-Information) > > [Residence Inn By Marriott Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Residence-Inn-By-Marriott-Palm-Desert.h201084.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Vacation Club at Desert Oasis](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Welk-Resorts-Palm-Springs.h1140793.Hotel-Information) > > [Riviera Resort Palm Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Margaritaville-Resort-Palm-Springs.h26011.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Mission Bay Spa and Marina](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Mission-Bay-Spa-And-Marina.h858.Hotel-Information) > > [The Oasis](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Oasis-Resort.h1180912.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Anaheim Garden Grove](https://www.expedia.ca/Garden-Grove-Hotels-Delta-Hotels-By-Marriott-Anaheim-Garden-Grove.h519819.Hotel-Information) > > [Solage, Auberge Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Calistoga-Hotels-Solage.h1640078.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Desert Willow Villas, Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Westin-Desert-Willow-Villas.h3304313.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Desert Springs Villas II](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Desert-Springs-Villas-II.h57218.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Shadow Ridge I-The Villages](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Shadow-Ridge.h853695.Hotel-Information) > > [Embassy Suites by Hilton Anaheim South](https://www.expedia.ca/Garden-Grove-Hotels-Embassy-Suites-By-Hilton-Anaheim-South.h662857.Hotel-Information)
