This house is amazing. We traveled with 2 other couples to relax in Napa. This house is so well equiped, comfortable and CHARMING!!! The linens were of the highest quality, kitchen well equiped and living room with fireplace was inviting and comfortable. My favorite was the view of the traquil and peaceful backyard from the french doors in the kitchen! It almost reminded me of Italy. This is a marvelous alternative to a hotel and the best way to fully enjoy Napa with friends is to rent the Laurel house!! We will definitely stay again!

Perfect Wine Country Location

My husband and family stayed at the Laurel House during Thanksgiving break, and it was our first time renting a home while on vacation. And what a great experience. The home was beautiful - just like the pictures show. Three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Of course the best bathroom being in the Master Bedroom - with a claw foot tub and separate shower! The beds were so comfortable - I have never slept so soundly while on vacation. The house comes fully stocked with towels - no worries there - and a hairdryer. As for shampoo/conditioner - previous guests have left behind lots of things. Which actually made for a nice perk. Bar soap was minimal, so I would suggest bringing or buying extra.

The house had a hot tub, which we used once. And the workout room / office was in a separate building, just behind the house (off the kitchen).

The kitchen was great, we found all kinds of thing people left behind. Especially nice were the coolers we found in the pantry - which we used while on our daily wine trips!

All in all, the house was close to downtown Napa - you could really walk to it! We were also close to the wineries - a big plus! When we visit Napa again, we'll be sure to check the availability of the Laurel House! I highly recommend you do too!

Cool House

We loved staying at the Laurel House as our base for our Napa wine country vacation. My wife and I took our two sons; age 21 and 23 to Napa for their '21st' birthdays. They each had there own queen bed. This worked out much better and actually cheaper than staying in two hotel rooms.
The house is in a residential area but fairly close to downtown Napa. The street is a teeny bit busy but not bad at all. The kitchen and bathrooms were updated with high-end components. The backyard is so well landscaped that you can't see any of your neighbors. We felt like we were in our own private garden. The separate office/workout room was a cool feature.
