Joseph Hooker (11/13/1814 – 10/31/1879) an American Civil War general for the Union, remembered for his defeat by Confederate General Robert E. Lee at the Battle of Chancellorsville 1863. In order to keep his troops happy, he hired women to take care of them. Thus the name "Hooker." He retired in Sonoma, CA., his home is now Bedrock Wine Tasting south of the plaza and there is a locally made liquor called Hooker House Bourbon that can be purchased at Prohibition Spirits Distillery on the plaza.

Great Centrally Located Rental

We were in town for a family wedding. Jenny's place was perfect - we loved the easy to get to location, great neighborhood for morning walks, comfy beds, 2 bathrooms and the covered porch for watching the rain. Jenny had so many little touches - our favorites were the games, snacks, and candles!

Great location in a quiet neighborhood

We attended a family wedding in Kenwood at BR Cohn Winery and this house was perfect. Located very close to downtown Sonoma for some fun wine tasting and great lunches and dinners. The house was in an extremely quiet neighborhood, was very well stocked with everything we needed and very comfortable for the 4 of us. Jenny is a very responsive and attentive host.

Perfect spot with great beds!

This was a great place! Beds were good, but don't rely on the futon in downstairs area for adult sleeping but kiddos probably fine. Host left lasts of little notes about house which gave good pointers on any quirks or expectations she had for the home.

Perfect stay

A group of friends (one with an infant) came to stay here for the Napa to Sonoma half marathon. Jenny’s place was the perfect home for our needs. It was quiet but conveniently located to downtown Sonoma and wineries. She was incredibly responsive and did everything to make our stay top notch. She even had a bag of toys for the baby and a pack and play. We highly recommend this stay for your next visit to Sonoma.

Working with the homeowner was very easy. Check in and out were simple. The house was clean. This place had the most well stocked kitchen I have ever stayed in-beyond just pepper, salt and sugar. There were plenty of utensils to cook in-great selection of pots and pans.
