One night only.

Glen Ellen is a largely undiscovered gem for many who visit Sonoma County. Located about ten miles north of Sonoma proper, the small town is just over two square miles, anchored by Jack London State Historic Park and the Sonoma Botanical Garden. But what Glen Ellen lacks in size it makes up for with...

We love walking into an unfamiliar kitchen and making it feel effortless. 🍃✨🍇

Our chef and server arrive with what we need (tools, ingredients, drinks, and the little details that make the table feel cared for), then we settle in and start cooking—quietly, calmly, and with a lot of intention.

Because the best part of a dinner like this isn’t the “perfect” setup. It’s watching everyone relax into the evening.

Would you do a private cooking night on your next Sonoma trip? 🍃

When the ingredients are this fresh, the plate does the talking.

Our burrata salad is built around what’s in season—then finished with a glossy balsamic glaze you’ll want on every bite.

We made it to the big screen! 🍿🎥

Goodness Gracious was recently featured on — a lifestyle series hosted by Telly Award winner Tara Polly, airing nationally on Travel Channel, CNBC, and local NBC, CBS, and FOX affiliates, with streaming on Apple TV, Roku, and Amazon Fire. Her YouTube channel is easily accessible . We linked it in our bio so you can watch the full episode!

We had the honor of preparing a private fine dining experience for host Tara at one of our stunning partner properties — and I couldn’t be more proud of our team for bringing it to life.

The HauteSheet spotlights the people, places, and cultural moments shaping modern California living, and being counted among them is something we’re truly excited for.

Let us know what you think of the episode!

Our team visited The Epicurean Connection to learn more about where we source our ingredients—and to deepen our understanding of the craft, care, and people behind what we serve.

Owners Sheana Davis & Ben Sessions shared their extensive knowledge and passion for cheesemaking, and we took a hands-on class together. It was educational, genuinely fun as a team bonding day, and a reminder of what we’re committed to: supporting local makers and sharing good, clean, and fair practices with our community.

(And yes—everyone left with homemade cheese.)

We bring the calm to you.

Start your Wine Country morning like a local with our Yoga + Bubbles and Brunch experience. A professional yogi brings everything needed—mats, props, and gentle music—for a 60-minute vinyasa flow suitable for all levels, set against the backdrop of your vacation property's stunning views. Once you've awakened your body and centered your mind, gather with friends at a beautifully set table where our chef has prepared a seasonally inspired brunch featuring the morning's freshest local ingredients, perfectly complemented by crisp local sparkling wines. It's the ideal way to create meaningful connections while experiencing authentic Sonoma wellness traditions. 😌
