Model Showroom Ready
This property looks like it is a model home, everything is perfect. The neutral colors are soothing, and the furnishings are top notch. The grounds are charming and well tucked away from Dry Creek as to not hear any occasional traffic. All communications by owner and property manager were cordial and professional. This is a keeper on my list of places to stay when in Healdsburg.

Perfect house for a getaway for two couples
We had a fantastic stay in early December, 2023. The house was clean and just as depicted in the listing, and it really was well stocked with everything you need, including firewood. Kimberly was very responsive and we so much appreciate her sharing her home with us, especially since we had a dog with us. We will rent again from her when we are in the area. No need to hesitate if you are looking for a place to stay near Healdsburg. There is even a country store down the road if you need prepared food, wine, groceries or a gift. Enjoy!

Gorgeous weekend in Healdsburg
Had a lovely weekend in wine country enjoying the fall colors and sunshine with dear friends. First Crush Cottage was perfect for two couples. The kitchen was well appointed for the preparation of simple meals and snacks, and we enjoyed coffee/wine/conversation together on the comfortable couch. We built a fire in the fireplace one evening, and It was warm enough to have brunch outside on the deck. Location is great. It's easy to get to the wineries, Dry Creek Market, and into town. We loved the charming property and will be back! Cheers!

Summer at First Crush
We spent 4 weeks at First Crush and could not have been more pleased. The house is beautiful and well equipped. The location is convenient to downtown and to numerous wineries. The outside grounds offer several seating and eating areas and are surrounded by beautiful vineyards. Both the owner and her local property manager were immediately responsive to all our requests. And finally, Healdsburg has it all!

Great wine country house
The house was perfect. Great weeklong stay. We had 2 couples and really enjoyed it. Loved the outdoor firepit which we used every night. Cooked in every night and the kitchen was well stocked and the back porch grill was nice to have. The property manager was very responsive when we ran out of propane one time. She was there in an hour. Loved it and hated to leave. Would definately book again.

A weekend of wine and jazz in lovely Healdsburg
An amazing house with all the amenities of your own home, including the best toiletries. A fresh herb garden right outside the kitchen door, beautiful roses surround the property and an amazing bottle of wine to compliment our evening meal. The added bonus of the complimentary wine tasting at Lambert Bridge was the the cherry on top. I'll definitely be back on my next visit to Healdsburg.

Excellent Home for Visiting Sonoma County
The house has been wonderfully remodeled into a 5-star accommodation. It is centrally located for Sonoma County excursions and very near Napa Valley. It has a rural feel, even though stores and restaurants are a short drive away. The house is very comfortable and also has many seating and dining areas outside. If you want to cook, the kitchen is supplied with all of the cooking utensils needed. There is also a high-end gas grill outdoors.

Yearly wine country trip. Finally back after Covid
Had a great time in wine country as always. The cottage is a perfect location for those who want to concentrate on Dry Creek wineries, be close to Healdsburg for meals or activities and is also great proximity to Santa Rosa and Sebastopol. We tend to do a bit of it all during our week stays so really enjoyed this charming house and the convenience it provides us! My husband and I stayed with my parents and it is a perfect set up for two couples. I would highly recommend First Crish Cottage!
