Lily Pad Ranch

"Airbnb Review #816025322393177585 #188385"

This stunning rental is a true slice of heaven to unwind in the country. We had a tranquil weekend cooking, walking the property and reveling in how beautiful the grounds were. I highly recommend getting up early to watch the sun rise and listen to the birds. The house is fully outfitted with such care. The dishes and silverware were gorgeous, the linens and bedding were plush, the stero system was fantastic, and the bathtub was luxurious. My one critical note would be to make sure you tell WC Lodging you want a heated pool during your stay days before you get there. Make sure the hot tub is heating up within half an hour, and if not, do not hesitate to ask Debi for help. Restaurants in town are delicious, but most do not do take out. The BBQ restaurant does and it is delicious.

We had a wonderful stay at the Lily Pad Ranch! There was plenty of room for our group of girlfriends. The views and surrounding are gorgeous and the proximity to town is perfect! Wish we were there in the summer to enjoy the pool. Exactly what we were looking for and simply a lovely weekend!

We very much enjoyed our stay at Lily Pad. We were part of a group of seven friends who traveled to the area for a birthday celebration. The house and guest house were perfect and exactly as described. The major selling point of the property, however, consisted of the beautiful grounds. Because we traveled in December and encountered some cold and rain, we couldn't take advantage of all the outside amenities. But we were still able to use the hot tub and take walks around the small lake. The property also had a gorgeous pool, fire pit, and outdoor tables.
Also of note is that the owner/property manager was extremely responsive and promptly responded to our couple of small questions.
We would definitely recommend Lily Pad!

50th wedding anniversary celebration and we all had a very good time. The property is in a great location, Healdsburg is a fun town, and the scenery is simply breathtaking.

Even better than the photos suggest. The three separate living quarters make it a great place for a largeish group to get together.

Stunning grounds. Beautiful little pond where I had the chance to relax and do some yoga. Wonderful pool and grill. Lots of fund outdoor places to sit. PLUS each room is almost like it's own private oasis. Highly suggest for groups vacationing together.

Perfect for a Leadership Retreat!

We could not have selected a better place for our mid-week 3-day Management Retreat. During the days we spend very productive meeting time in the spacious lower guest house, which was set up as a 6-8 people conference room with all business amenities incl. easy to connect (very) large presentation screen, white board, flipchart, supplies and even a fireplace right by the conference table! (request meeting configuration prior with the Host).

Outside of our meetings we truly enjoyed the serene setting of Lily Pad Ranch nestled into the wine-country hills.

The beautiful, rich nature during this spring season reminded us of a nature preserve, with wildlife at the lake, birds, butterflies and flowers everywhere. At night we enjoyed excellent comfort food (Paella at Bravas) and gourmet dinner (Matheson) in lovely Healdsburg, a short 5 minutes away. We had lots of fun at our self-organized wine-tastings afterwards on the beautifully lit patio, topped off by spa sessions.

The main house and guest house are well appointed with very comfortable beds and a generously stocked kitchen.
Lily Pad Ranch created the right atmosphere for a perfect, inspiring and energizing off-site that allowed our Management team to focus on our business strategy and priorities without distraction, while personally bonding as one team. Highly recommended, we will be back!

This place is even better than the listing. Online pictures cannot do it justice. It is a unique, gorgeous property with beautiful grounds and views.

Amazing property with wonderful outdoor places to lounge and hangout at. Comfy beds and adequate kitchen appliances. Jura coffee maker is a nice touch.

Wow, what a stunning property! Our group spent an amazing weekend at Lily Pad Ranch. It is a totally unique home, nestled into the hillside, complete with its own private pond and ample room for a large party to relax. While it is just a quick 5 minute drive to downtown Healdsburg, the entire property feels completely private and secluded. Both the main house and the guest accommodations are spacious and filled with comfy bedding and spaces to gather. The kitchen appliances are top-notch, and the large patios, barbecue area, and pool / spa deck provided us with plenty of outdoor spaces to hang out in as well. The host was very responsive and communication was great. Our entire party could not stop complimenting the place all throughout the weekend, and we can't wait to return in the future!

We stayed on this lovely estate for a very memorable girls’ weekend. The property sits on a serene and private hillside with breathtaking views of the valley. The location is ideal, very close to wineries and only 5 minutes from the town of Healdsburg. The property has ample grounds with a walking path around a beautiful pond that has a delightful floating gazebo. There is also a large inviting lap pool and spa with a big sitting deck.
The main house is tastefully furnished and fully stocked with top of the line appliances. The sitting area has a beautiful view and opens to the large deck. The house was sunny and spacious but also felt extremely cozy and comfortable. The guest house has 2 large separate pristine guest quarters with large living areas and kitchens that can accommodate many guests.
This is a gorgeous property and I can’t wait to get back there.

Our recent trip to Lily Pad Ranch was fabulous. What a gorgeous property! Loved the morning walks around the pond and the views of the sunrise and sunset. The accommodations are superb - very comfortable beds and well appointed kitchen. It has a great location - rural setting yet close to wineries and downtown Healdsburg.
I can’t wait to return.

Great location and property. Would stay again for next trip to area.

"Gorgeous, Magical Property"

We celebrated my husband's 50th birthday at Lily Pad Ranch and we couldn't have asked for a more idyllic spot. Just 5 minutes from Healdsburg, the property feels like a secluded oasis with mountain views, beautiful woods and no other houses to be seen. There were so many wonderful places to gather outside, from the gorgeous back patio (with built-in koi fish pond!) to the floating gazebo down at the lake. The uplights in the trees made the setting feel especially magical at night, sitting out by the fire pit. We loved playing in the huge heated pool while others luxuriated on the plush lounge chairs. The kitchen was well stocked for a large group, including a large built-in ice maker and high-end cappuccino machine, and it was beautiful dining outside under the arbor. Both houses were incredibly comfortable, stylish and spacious. Lily Pad Ranch is a stunning property that we found incredibly hard to leave!

The was probably one of the nicest Airbnb's I have ever stayed in. The property is absolutely jaw-dropping and stunning. Every design detail was carefully thought out. Bravo to the owners and their taste.
It was the perfect secluded getaway that my family and I needed.
Our kids enjoyed walking around the property, feeding the Koi fish, walking to the private lake, playing in the pool.
We enjoyed an afternoon with pool time and lunch under the pergola next to the grill.
The place is 100% private, which we loved.
The pool is what sold us, but could have been a bit warmer for the kids. However, maybe I didn't work it correctly myself.
The hot tub was nice and hot so this was great.
We also enjoyed the fact that the property is 5mins away from Downtown Healdsburg in case we needed anything.
Thank you for the great stay

"A Secluded Retreat"

Our party of 3 couples stayed at Lily
Pad Ranch in July, and enjoyed a secluded retreat that feels remote but is in fact just less than 5 minutes from downtown Healdsburg. We made full use of the three kitchens -- two inside and one out -- to cook big meals from the great local markets. We lounged
by the beautiful pool, and barely made time to visit the many neighboring wineries because we didn’t want to leave the property! With many comfortable beds in the main- and guesthouse and plenty of space to spread out, this would be the perfect place for family
gatherings or a weekend getaway with friends. We surely will be back!
