10-Acre Wellness Retreat, Pool, Sauna, Ceremony Tent | Fable Sonoma by AvantStay | House in Santa Rosa
5 Bedroom House in Riebli-Wallace Neighborhood Group, Santa Rosa
Set on nearly ten secluded acres just outside Santa Rosa, Fable Sonoma is a purpose-built retreat center where nature, neuroscience-informed design, and intentional gathering spaces create an environment unlike a traditional vacation home. Crafted to support corporate offsites, wellness and therapy retreats, workshops, and group getaways, this hillside sanctuary offers a rare blend of immersive landscape and modern comfort in the heart of Sonoma wine country.
The main house, designed by architect Jacob Lehrer, is an elevated 1970s home transformed with nature-forward modern luxury. It features an open great room anchored by a stone fireplace and expansive windows framing the forest. A generous dining table and a fully equipped chef’s kitchen make it easy for groups to gather, cook, collaborate, and settle in. Modern technology enhances your group's experience, with a whole-house Sonos system with premium Spotify integration, a PA/karaoke setup with wireless microphones, color-changing lights, and a 65" digital art display. Five calming bedrooms plus a finished lower level provide flexible accommodations for teams and retreat groups, while a glamping-style tent offers a quiet, atmospheric space for meditation, journaling, or nature-forward overnight stays.
Outside, the property unfolds into a restorative retreat designed with connection in mind. Meandering trails lead to swings, camping hammocks, meadows, and panoramic viewpoints, while a ceremony/meeting tent with custom lighting creates an inspiring alternative to a traditional conference room. Between sessions, groups can recharge in the heated pool, hot tub, and cedar sauna, or gather in outdoor seating areas that blend seamlessly with the surrounding forest.
Though it feels worlds away, Fable Sonoma sits just minutes from renowned wineries, tasting rooms, and the dining and culture of Santa Rosa, Sonoma Valley, and Healdsburg. For groups seeking a restorative environment that nurtures connection, creativity, and well-being, this retreat offers the perfect setting to slow down, think differently, and reconnect—with each other and with nature.

Known for its vineyards, local cuisine, and nature parks, Sonoma County (45 minutes from San Francisco) offers a wide array of activities for those looking to retreat from city life. Touring local wineries, dining at farm-to-table restaurants, and visiting world-class spas are classic ways to experience the area. While unwinding is certainly the attitude in Sonoma, activities like horseback riding, hot-air ballooning, and kayaking attract those looking for a little adventure. In the evening, watch the sunset over the vineyards and rolling hills, wine glass in hand.
