1891 Bennett Meadows Ln Unit Studio

The famous vineyards may be the big draw for visitors, but the broader culture of Santa Rosa and surrounding Sonoma County make it a delightful place to live, work, and play. The arts community ranges from the classical to the eccentric, with many outdoor festivals and other events taking advantage of the area’s unbeatable climate.

Naturally, the city is a paradise for wine aficionados, and the local breweries get high marks as well. Santa Rosa has done an excellent job preserving its historic homes and buildings, and many Victorian-era neighborhoods still appear as they did over a century ago. Of course, the gorgeous scenery doesn’t hurt either-- Northern California’s wild and rugged terrain surrounds Santa Rosa, making it easy to explore new trails and soak in fresh views after moving to your Santa Rosa rental.
