About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Walk to Downtown Napa, Oxbow Public Market, and BottleRock!

City of Napa "Non-hosted" Vacation Rental license number VR19-0027.

The Napa Vacation Bungalow is a unique 4 bedroom. 2.5 bath retreat nestled a block from the Napa River in Old Town Napa. The property consists of a Main House and a private Garden Studio which are rented together as one property. (Note: There is NO additional charge for the Garden Studio - it's included!)

We are one of the 41 legally permitted "Non-hosted" vacation rental homes in Napa. Our City of Napa Vacation Rental Permit number is VR19-0027. (NOTE: In Napa, rent only from permitted vacation rentals to ensure your reservation will be honored and available when you arrive.)

What does "Non-hosted" mean to you? It means you are able to enjoy the ENTIRE property by yourself without on-site hosts impacting your privacy. (The City of Napa also permits so-called "hosted" homes, where an owner is required to live on premises.)

Ok, we love the so-called ‘sharing economy’ but when its finally time to relax during your hard-earned vacation, we think you'll appreciate having a whole house to yourself without well-intentioned, meddling hosts. Share a good good bottle of wine, not your vacation.

Just blocks away you'll discover world class dining (Napa's best restaurants: Morimoto's, Angele, Cole's Chop House, Oenotri), shopping and nightlife in downtown Napa. The Napa Valley and all it has to offer are easily within your reach. San Francisco and the Bay Area are one hour to the south.

Owned and operated by two local business owners. Whitney is the main contact for guests, and Bobby is Mr. Fix-it should there be any issues. When they are not working, they are busy keeping up with their three young daughters.

The entire property was refurbished in 2016, with new kitchen cabinets and floors throughout in 2024.

The Main House has a full bath and a half bath. The Garden Studio has it's own bathroom. (Not suitable for very large persons.)

Additionally, the private Garden Studio offers two french doors leading to its own deck, a completely stocked kitchenette, including refrigerator and microwave as well as it's own separate, full bath.

During your stay you'll enjoy free WIFI, a 44' flat screen TV entertainment with surround sound, iPod friendly sound system, luxurious linens, a barbecue/dining deck, a dining room that seats eight, washer and dryer, a completely stocked gourmet kitchen including gas range, blender, cuisinart, professional quality cookware, mixing bowls, microwave, ice-maker, toaster, coffee maker (can use grounds or k-cups), plates, glasses, and utensils and off-street, covered parking. All bedrooms and living room have ceiling fans. Both the Main House and the Garden Studio have heating and air-conditioning and provide on-demand filtered water.

The property features a secluded back yard with brand new spa/Jacuzzi and lovely Asian touches such as a huge black bamboo grove, Japanese maples, an enormous apple tree and romantic lighting.

3 adults and a 3 year old stayed here and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Neighborhood was nice and close to town. The guest house and hot tub were a wonderful addition! There were even fresh limes on the trees. The only thing we didn’t like was the exceptionally small shower in the guest house but that was disclosed in the details ahead of time. The shower in the main house was fine for all us. We will Definitely recommend this house!

The interior of the house was clean and the shared space is convenient. Very easy to enjoy each others company in the morning or evening. The exterior was not as inviting, somewhat due to the Fall foliage drop, but not as equally well kept as the interior space. The location is conveniently drivable into downtown, but at a mile out, we didn't feel it was comfortably walkable. Had a small delay in the check-in but the host was responsive within 30 minutes to rectify. She was very polite and inviting to her property.

This was a great location for our group of 5 adults to stay for 2 nights while visiting Napa. It's very close to downtown restaurants and shopping and a convenient location for exploring local hikes and wineries. The property is as described, and communication from the host was very clear.

We had a great time at this property. Having the two “separate” properties was really nice and felt like you had a little extra room. One of the bedrooms was on the smaller side and did require bathroom sharing but it was certainly manageable and we really enjoyed our time here!

Five Ladies Weekend!

Book it! This spot is exceptionally clean, spacious, and grander than the photos show. Defintely a cook's kitchen that's fully part of the social space (no one's "stuck in the kitchen"). The hottub is huge, deep, and private! The details (quality kitcheware, sturdy furniture, plush towels, crisp linens, tasteful art, firm hot water pressure, natural AM sun, and solid woodfloors) push my 4.5 stars (see host's accurate note re: the gardenhouse toilet space) to a full 5! And dont be mislead by the humble appearance of the house from the street - this spot is top notch. We'll be back.

Beautiful place

We absolutely loved the house. Beds were clean and comfortable. The house was clean and had enough places to sleep. We lived the hot tub and the round take meet g at night were we shared out favorite wine. The only concern we had was that the house is not really walking distance without a pretty long walk. Also, the neighborhood was a little scary but they did not bother us. It would have different to trust my older kids to walk to down town without being concerned

Perfect!

This was perfect for our family of 3 couples. The location is unbeatable and the setup of the main house and guest house is great! The owners were fantastic, responding to every question or request immediately day or night. Home is cozy and comfy with everything you could possibly need. Really appreciated not having to go to the store to buy staples and not having to do a ton of checkout/housecleaning work which we’ve had to do with other rentals. Really cannot say enough goof things. Rent this one!! It’s perfect!!

Perfect in every way

Trip to Napa with family and friends to celebrate 60th birthday for me, cancer-free for my sister, new family, and new friends! House was perfect … little warm when we arrived and soon discovered AC not working. Quick call to Whitney and she immediately started to get someone there to fix it! And she did! Went to dinner and perfect temp when we returned. Whitney compensated us with apps and wine for our trouble … wasn’t necessary (those things happen and she got it fixed) but greatly appreciated! Although advertised “walking distance to downtown” we never walked it. Seemed a little far for us personally but completely doable if not in a hurry and perhaps younger. 😉. . 4 stars for location and neighborhood only because house across from this one looked like a junkyard BUT spend little time on front porch given the wonderful seating arrangements and atmosphere in the backyard which is very private! Would stay here again! Thanks, Whitney (and Bob)!
