About this property

Luxurious, private country estate - 5 min. from downtown, wineries & outdoor rec

Close to town, yet private, Andare is your home away from home in wine country. We’re 3 miles from the airport, and 5 miles from charming & vibrant downtown Walla Walla. Our 10-acre oasis allows plenty of space to play and relax; enjoy our signature coffee on the patio, a dip in the heated pool, & the incredible sunset with a chilled glass of rosé. Come stay and savor the sensory pleasures of being among friends - cooking in the kitchen, playing board games, dance parties under the stars, and relaxing with your new-found winery favorites. This house is best with adult couples- designed to accommodate 4 couples in harmony. On-site caretakers stay in a separate building on the property.

Great location for wine tasting

Fantastic very comfortable home close to all Walla Walla winery tasting rooms. Owner was very communicative and helpful, we would recommend this place and would come back again when the weather was a little warmer to enjoy the pool more! Beautiful quiet country location yet still close to town. Thank you again for a wonderful stay.

Amazing Stay!

We came with 3 couples for a weekend of relaxing by the pool and wine tasting. This house fit the bill perfectly! It is so quiet and private - we loved being able to play music and enjoy the pool with no neighbors! The house was well equipped with glasses and necessary supplies, and had plenty of seating inside and out. Great stay

Beautiful!!

We had a wonderful time! The house is exceptional and clean and comfortable, and the grounds are well-appointed. The hosts were kind and gracious. We stayed with a group of 6 ladies, and had a really comfortable and fun stay. I'd like to bring my family back in the near future! I would highly recommend!

Golf and Wine Tasting

We had a group of 4 couples come and stay for the 3 day weekend. It was great staying away from town and get the quiet of the country. We have rented multiple house with pools over the years in the Walla Walla area and this pool was by far the best. The house was spacious and inviting. The owners were wonderful. We would absolutely stay here again!

We loved staying at this home. We had a total of 3 couples in the house and we could have easily added a 4th couple, plenty of space. We staying in July so the pool was amazing. Very clean house. When we go back to Walla Walla with a group, we will stay at this home if available.

Gorgeous home, peaceful setting!

This house was absolutely fantastic. We had four adult couples and everything was very comfortable and perfect for a long weekend enjoying wine country. Being just outside of town was a nice change too - it's not far at all from everything. Clean, generally well stocked, and open living space allows everyone to hang out together very easily. We will most definitely be back!

This property was perfect for our stay in Walla Walla. It is close to the wineries and yet secluded and peaceful. We had everything we needed and more.

Better than we even imagined

This property looks fantastic in the listing and it more than delivered! Our group loved the house overall, especially the layout that balanced private spaces with group gathering spaces, the decor, the amount of outdoor seating areas, the sunset views, and, of course, the pool! The host was easy to communicate with and helped us out with a special request. Everything was absolutely perfect and everyone mentioned how great the house was!

Amazing house! Practically perfect in every way.

Seriously folks, this was the best VRBO we have ever stayed in. Beautiful and comfortable inside and out, with the most thoughtful supplies and amenities I've ever seen. Everything you could possibly need in a vacation rental is stocked. Comfortable beds, stocked kitchen, and immaculate pool. The location is indeed smack in the middle of wheat fields and feels wonderfully isolated...but only a quick 10-minute drive to town and grocery stores. We had an amazing time, thank you Tom!

Wine weekend

The house was perfect for 4 couples coming to Walla Walla for crush weekend. The setting is beautiful, surrounded by wheat fields and only 10 mins to downtown. We already discussed renting again in the summer so we can enjoy the pool. The house is well equipped even had board games and cards. We were even able to stream the college football games on the tv using our laptop. We will be back!

Exactly What We Were Hoping For!

Nice home in a lovely setting amongst the rolling hills just outside of Walla Walla. The host thought of just about everything a guest might need (or forget to bring) and stocked the home with those items. And having your own quiet pool to jump in on those 90+ degree afternoons (between wine tastings and dinner) was just perfect. Thank you! Thank you!

Great location and had a great time. Couple of things for owner info. There were a few ants in downstairs bathroom. The downstairs shower control needs attention. barbecue ran out of propane while cooking the only dinner we had at the property. Otherwise perfect.

Even better in person!

We can see why this property is booked out so far in advance. This rental exceeded our already high expectations. The pool was much larger in person than it looks in the photos. My sister is a clean freak and she commented on how this was the cleanest rental she has been in. The home itself is also larger than expected, very spacious and perfect for the group we had. The house is equipped with a lot of little things you’re always bound to forget when going on vacation. We can’t wait to book this property again. Host was awesome, and gave us great recommendations as well.

Family Stay

This property is very nice. You need to be aware that it is in the middle of nowhere but has a wonderful swimming pool and lots of peace and quiet. It was just what we ( 8 Adults) were looking for. Kitchen was very good. We could not use the washing machine because the well pump was not working properly which was a big disappointment and inconvenience. We made many attempts to contact the owner who had previously said he could do a temporary fix, but he never returned our calls and texts. So while the property is nice the customer service was sorely lacking.

About the host

Hosted by Tom and Judy Bennett

Host profile image
Tom and I fell in love with Walla Walla years ago, and we've always held it in our hearts as a special place to relax and find some quiet time among amazing views. I grew up in Portland, but I attended Whitman back in the 80’s and I dare say my heart never left.

We own a fantastic pizza restaurant 12 miles east of here (called American 35) in Waitsburg. That’s not just a brag; I can say that because of our 4.9 star rating! Tom also owns a mobile catering business called Fiasco Wood-Fired Pizza. Hosting guests, at the restaurant or at home, is the thing we love to do the most. We’re honored that people choose to celebrate their special occasions with us, and we work hard to create the best experiences that we can.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property due to its unique characteristics. There aren't many contemporary houses with this kind of space, near to town. It has the wonderful ability to be remote and private, while being so close to Walla Walla's dynamic community.

What makes this property unique

"Andare" in Italian is the verb "To Be". It also means to simply stay in one place. It perfectly describes how we feel when we're here. When we’re thoroughly content and having a nice time with people we love, there’s no desire to be anywhere else. We have worked to make our home as inviting to you as we find it ourselves.
