Family-friendly vacation rentals in Glen Ellen

A fabulous stay in Sonoma/ Napa area for long weekend with family. Incredible home! Close to adorable shops and great restaurants and only 30 minutes from downtown Napa. Owner very communicative always makes any guest feel special. Would highly recommend.

This was the perfect place for our friends/family gathering! We spent a long weekend in Sonoma to do some wine tasting and gather for a birthday/Father’s Day celebration. The house is beyond beautiful and you can tell Nancy takes wonderful care of the interior and outside spaces. Beds were comfortable and the game room was such a blast! The kitchen is also fully stocked with everything you need to cook (we made several breakfasts and a lovely dinner and there was nothing we were left wanting in terms of utensils/dishware/etc). The house is nestled right into the hills and is just teeming with birds and other critters which made great morning coffee companions. Quiet and secluded. Nancy was a phenomenal host - she was quick to respond and made our stay incredibly relaxing. We felt so welcomed! We will definitely be back for another stay! Thank you again Nancy and Co 😊

We found just what we were looking for; a peaceful and private cabin near the Russian River and with a lot of style and soul to boot. The house was very clean, comfortable and provided some sweet outdoor spaces for dining and lounging. With the heavy vegetation growing below, we didn't have a view of the river, but it was just a quick stroll away. The only downside I can think of is traffic noise along a semi-busy road that's nearby. But it wasn't a buzzkill and we enjoyed the experience thoroughly. We hope to return soon.

the house is lovely, hot tub and game room are top notch! I think the welcome packet got lost between a previous guest and our stay, but Raemy answered all questions very quickly. Views are truly amazing!

Ryan and James were available and responsive. The cottage was well appointed and immaculate. It was obvious that quite a bit of thought went into the amenities and decor. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. The views! Looking over the Russian River where it empties into the Pacific Ocean was awesome! We will be back.

The home was beautiful, we truly enjoyed our time there. They say that pictures are worth a thousand words but pictures of the views from the multiple balconies are unable to capture how stunning they really are. The home was just as listed, clean and was the most stocked home we have visited. We enjoyed exploring the surrounding areas and made unforgettable memories.

Absolutely wonderful place, the photos don't do it justice. You can tell that this is not just a vacation rental as a lot of love and care has gone into the home and it has everything you could need to make your stay comfortable and relaxing. Communication was always quick, friendly and proactive. Would love to visit again one day!

I almost don't want to tell you how good this place is, so we can rent it again sometime. :-) But it's that good. We visited over spring break with our daughters, eight and 11, and had one of the most amazing stays we've ever had at an Airbnb. The home, the land, the pool, and the local area are all 100% amazing. And the sunsets. You know how you sometimes stay at Airbnb's where you feel like the hosts did the bare minimum to qualify to list it? This is *not* that place. There is everything you need and more. Thank you so much SatKartar!

Chris’s place was the perfect cozy getaway! Every inch of the guest house was thoughtfully designed and well-equipped with everything we needed. The views were beautiful, the space was clean and welcoming, and the dogs were so sweet and friendly. It was the ideal escape for our Emily. Chris was a great host—warm, helpful, and made us feel right at home. Highly recommend!

We loved our two nights at Amy’s place with our two pups! I wish we would have planned to stay longer, there was a lot more to explore in the area! It was SO clean. We usually feel like we need to re-clean just to feel ok in Airbnb’s but Amy’s place felt like we were staying at a friend’s place that we trusted. The homemade delivered muffins were a treat and she gave us some awesome local recommendations. The bed was comfortable and it was super quiet!

The view is spectacular in this lovely private location. It's off the beaten path, but if you have a car, it's a wonderful place to stay.

Lisa was a great communicator...huge help when you're unfamiliar with the area. The flat was definitely "sun-drenched" as advertised. It's elevated above street level, so had a private feel in general. Great lower patio area surrounded by gardens with Adirondack chairs and fire pit. Candles in lieu of fire was a smart move! Would definitely stay there again. Only drawback for us was that we are used to a roomy king size bed, but that''s personal preference. Thanks Lisa, for sharing with us!

Sherry was very responsive and very flexible with checkout which we appreciated. you need a car as there's not much within walking distance. the neighborhood is quiet and although the unit is a bit dated, it has everything you need.

What a lovely place! Super cozy and beautifully decorated. The skylights bring in a lot of natural light and the patio is so sweet. I was greeted by two little birds singing their songs each day. Highly recommend! :)

Thank you, Peter. We enjoyed our stay. Great location between Napa and Calistoga. Kitchen well stocked for our needs. Home was comfortable for our family. Private, secure and peaceful. Communication was easy and responsive! Hope to come back another time…….

Our stay was lovely! The beds and linens were comfortable and the rooms were quiet. The entire home was well stocked and it felt like a second personal home in terms of the quality of items - sharp knives, well stocked pantry for cooking basics, foil, etc. We brought two dogs and it was a paradise for them. The outdoor area is truly magical. The fire pit is great, the downstairs dog shower is handy, and the landscaping is sublime.

If you’re looking for a nice & relaxing place to get away from your everyday life this is the place you want to be!

House is In a beautiful spot. Driveway access requires stopping on the side of the main street getting out, punching the code for the gate then making a u turn to get in to the drive way. The house was very open and spacious. Overall the family enjoyed the house.

We had a fantastic time at Christina's place in Sonoma. It was our second time staying at this place, so we knew what to expect. There was a slight glitch getting in the front door, but Christina was immediately available by text and had us taken care of in no time. All in all we loved the house and Christina was a wonderful host.

We came a second time to Fred’s river home oasis. Our kids love the grounds and the stream is so peaceful. Pool is delightfully warm and with a Forest view. Come here for a nature escape. We will be back!

I’m so glad to have found this airbnb! It was in a quiet, beautiful neighborhood. The place was cozy, clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We did have issues with wifi connections and would get bad signal on/off, also had trouble with opening the door (several tries with the code and being able to push open the door), but other than that, everything was perfect! Highly recommend this place and Kristina was awesome! I definitely would book here again if the need arises!

Kelli’s place is utterly charming and feels like a little private garden oasis. Highly recommend !

beautiful backyard with hot tub. very quiet area. highly recommended.

We had a great stay at this spacious and well-equipped home in Sonoma! The house had everything we needed, and the outdoor space was a definite highlight—clean, warm pool and a beautiful area to relax in. Check-in was super easy, and the door code worked without any issues. The location was perfect for our trip—we used a local driving service to take us to wineries in Napa, which worked out really well. A few small things to note: the beds weren’t the most comfortable, and one of the twin beds was pretty squeaky. We also would’ve appreciated more towels since there were four of us. The en-suite shower could use some attention—it’s older and came across a bit dingy. Overall, it was a solid stay and we’d definitely consider coming back!
