Summit House Napa

Summit House is a three-bedroom A-frame residence on Mount Veeder in Napa Valley, offered exclusively as a 31-night-minimum long-term residential rental. Set on two private acres of ancient redwoods at approximately 1,800 feet on the eastern slope of Mount Veeder (peak elevation: 2,677 feet), it is designed for extended stays — remote work, creative retreats, and seasonal residencies.

Summit House Napa is located in unincorporated Napa County, on Mount Veeder in the Mayacamas Mountains of western Napa County, California. The property sits at approximately 1,800 feet elevation on the eastern slope and is approximately 15 minutes by car from downtown Napa. The exact address is private and shared with confirmed guests only.

Monthly residencies at Summit House start at $12,000 per 31-night stay and range up to $18,000 during Napa Valley harvest season (September through October, the peak of peak season). Off-peak rates (December through March) range from $12,000 to $14,000 per 31-night stay. Rates include utilities, Starlink satellite internet, and use of every amenity on the property.

The 31-night minimum is intentional and structural. Under California law and Napa County zoning, stays of 30 days or longer are classified as long-term residential tenancies — distinct from short-term vacation rentals (those under 30 days). Summit House operates exclusively as a long-term residential rental at a 31-night minimum, which places every stay clearly within the long-term residential category and outside the short-term rental framework that applies to vacation rentals (including transient occupancy tax and short-term rental permits). The property is in unincorporated Napa County and operates legally under that classification.

Compared with valley floor rentals that often charge $30,000 to $50,000 per month, Summit House is positioned for guests who want the flexibility of a full-month contract at a lower monthly rate. A typical use case is a family taking a two-week Napa trip at what amounts to under $400 per night, with the remaining two weeks available for extended stays or additional guests. Other guests use the month as a rotating weekender for a family or friend group over the course of a month or two, seasonally.

Summit House has three bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, with maximum occupancy of eleven guests. Amenities include a Hot Spring Prodigy hot tub, an outdoor infrared sauna, an open-air shower, a private meditation trail through ancient redwoods, two fire pit lounges, a zen garden with mosaic dining table, a wraparound front deck with panoramic Napa Valley views, a fully equipped modern kitchen, a sunken conversation pit with stone fireplace, Sonos whole-house sound, a 72-inch smart TV, and a dedicated workspace with Starlink connectivity indoors and outdoors.

The property sits on two private acres of Coast Redwoods (Sequoia sempervirens) on Mount Veeder, with private access to the Enchanted Hills Waterfall trail. Mount Veeder is part of the Mayacamas Mountains and rises to a peak of 2,677 feet, home to some of the most significant redwood stands in Napa County, including those protected at the nearby Archer Taylor Preserve.
