Pumpkin Cheesecake with Gingersnap Crust and Caramel Sauce
Pumpkin pie is always expected at Thanksgiving, but this year I decided to shake things up a bit and make pumpkin cheesecake instead. Having never made one before, I scoured the internet in search of the perfect recipe and tested six different variations. (Obsessive, I know, but you probably already know that about me by now!) I took what I liked from each one and created this recipe. I promise you: it's the ultimate sweet ending to your Thanksgiving feast — and no one will miss that tired ol' pumpkin pie.
The recipe is not hard — as you can see, there aren't that many ingredients — but it's a bit of a project, especially if you make the homemade caramel sauce that goes with it. I hope that won't deter you because it's totally worth it, especially once a year! I know many cooks avoid baking cheesecakes at home because they need to be cooked in a water bath so they cook evenly and don't crack. It seems fussy but, honestly, it's not a big deal. You'll see below, all you do is set the cake pan in another larger pan and fill the larger pan with water.
Begin by wrapping a 9-inch springform pan with aluminum foil. I prefer to use heavy duty foil because it does a better job of preventing water from seeping into the pan and also comes in wider sheets. Spray the pan with nonstick cooking spray.
Next, make the crust: combine the gingersnaps and sugar in a food processor and pulse until the crumbs are fine.
Add the melted butter.
Then pulse until crumbs are moistened.
Press the crumbs into the bottom of the prepared pan.
Then bake the crust for 15 minutes.
Set the crust aside to cool, and move on to the filling.
Combine the pumpkin, sugar and spices in a medium saucepan and stir over low heat until shiny and thickened. This step, borrowed from Rose Levy Beranbaum's recipe, both intensifies the pumpkin flavor and dries the pumpkin out.
Next, transfer the pumpkin mixture to a food processor and run for one minute to smooth and cool the mixture.
With the motor running, add the cold heavy cream.
The mixture will look like this.
Then add the cream cheese in large chunks.
And process until smooth.
Finally, add the eggs and pulse until just combined. It's important not to overmix — if you incorporate too much air into the filling, it will rise and crack or fall when it bakes.
Set the cake pan in a large roasting pan, then pour the filling into the cooled crust.
Next, pour hot water into the roasting pan until it reaches about halfway up the side of the springform pan.
Bake in a 325 degree oven until just set, about 1-1/2 hours. If it jiggles when you shake the pan, it's not done.
Let the cheesecake cool in the water bath, then leave it out on a rack to cool completely. Finally, cover and refrigerate until chilled — at least four hours or overnight. On that note, it's a good idea to bake this cake a day ahead of time or early in the morning on the day you plan to serve it.
For the homemade caramel sauce — which is optional yet oh so good — I recommend a very simple recipe from Cooks Illustrated, which takes less than 10 minutes to make in the microwave and requires no fancy equipment or candy thermometers.
Begin by combining the sugar with the corn syrup, water and lemon juice in a microwave safe bowl or measuring cup. Be sure it holds at least 2 cups of liquid so the mixture doesn't boil over.
Microwave the mixture for 4-8 minutes, until the mixture is pale yellow in color. Check it frequently after four minutes; if it gets too dark, the caramel sauce will burn. It should look like this…
Let the caramel sit undisturbed for about five minutes and it will gradually darken to a rich amber color.
At this point, stir in the hot heavy cream little by little. It will bubble up vigorously but shouldn't overflow.
Finally, stir in the butter.
When you're ready to serve the cheesecake, warm up the caramel sauce (it stiffens as it sits) and thin it with more heavy cream if necessary.
Drizzle the caramel sauce over the each piece of cheesecake and top with a dollop of sweetened whipped cream and a light dusting of cinnamon if desired. Enjoy and Happy Thanksgiving!
Note: You'll need a large food processor — preferably with a 12-cup capacity — to make the filling (you can also use an 11-cup, but you may have a bit of leakage). If you don't have one, it's fine to use a Kitchenaid Mixer or electric beaters for the filling and a small food processor for the crust.
Pumpkin Cheesecake with Gingersnap Crust and Caramel Sauce
For the Crust
- 7-1/2 ounces gingersnaps (or 1-1/2 cups finely ground gingersnap crumbs)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
For the Filling
- 1 15-ounce can pumpkin (such as Libby's)
- 1-1/3 cups granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup heavy cream, cold
- 1-1/2 pounds (three 8-ounce packages) cream cheese, room temperature
- 5 large eggs, room temperature
For Caramel Sauce
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons light corn syrup
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1/8 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1/2 cup heavy cream, plus more if necessary
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
For the Crust
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Wrap a 9-inch springform pan twice with aluminum foil (preferably heavy duty). Take care to pull the foil all the way up the sides so that water cannot seep in from the water bath. Spray the bottom and sides of the pan with nonstick cooking spray. Pulse the crackers (or crumbs) and sugar in a food processor fitted with the metal blade until finely ground. Add the butter and pulse a few times to combine. Dump the moistened crumbs into the prepared pan and, using a measuring cup or glass, press into an even layer. Bake until fragrant and set, about 15 minutes. Cool on a wire rack while you prepare the filling.
For the Filling
- Bring about 4 quarts of water to a simmer in a tea kettle (this will be used for the water bath). In a small, heavy saucepan, stir together the pumpkin, sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves and salt. Over medium heat, bring the mixture to a sputter, stirring constantly. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, stirring constantly, for 5 minutes, until thick, bronzed and shiny. Scrape the mixture into a large food processor fitted with the metal blade and process for 1 minute with the feed tube open.
- With the motor running, add the cold cream. Add the cream cheese (cut into chunks) and process for about 30 seconds, scraping the sides if necessary, or until smoothly incorporated. Add the eggs and process for about 5 seconds or just until incorporated (do not overmix!).
- Set the cake pan in a large roasting pan. Pour the batter into the cooled crust, and then pour enough boiling water into the large roasting pan to come about halfway up side of the cake pan. Bake until the cake is just set, about 1-1/2 hours. If it jiggles, it's not done. Carefully remove the roasting pan from the oven and set on a wire rack. Use a paring knife to loosen the cake from the sides of the pan. Cool until the water is just warm, about 45 minutes. Remove the springform pan from the water bath, discard the foil and set on a wire rack. Continue to cool at room temperature until barely warm, about 3 hours. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled, at least 4 hours or overnight.
For the Caramel Sauce
- Stir the sugar, corn syrup, water and lemon juice together in a 2-cup microwave-safe measuring cup or medium glass bowl. Microwave until the caramel is pale yellow, or just barely starting to take on some color, 4-8 minutes (depending on the strength of your microwave). It's fine to stop and open the microwave to check often; just don't let it get too dark or it will burn. Let the caramel sit for about 5 minutes -- it will gradually turn a rich amber color. (If after five minutes, it's not dark enough, place it back in the microwave for thirty seconds or so, then let it darken again. If it gets too dark, start over.)
- In the meantime, heat the cream in the microwave until hot. Once the caramel reaches the right color, add the hot cream a few tablespoons at a time. It will bubble up intensely, but won't overflow. After you've added all the cream, stir to incorporate then add the butter. Add more cream if the mixture seems too thick. Once the caramel cools, you can store it in your fridge.
For Serving
- Remove the outer ring from the springform pan. Slide a thin metal spatula between the crust and pan bottom to loosen, then slide the cheesecake onto a serving platter. (Alternatively, you can keep it on the pan bottom.) If there is condensation on the top of the cheesecake, blot it gently with a flat paper towel. Let the cheesecake stand at room temperature for about 30 minutes, then cut it into wedges. Warm up the caramel sauce in the microwave (it stiffens in the fridge). If it's too thick, add more heavy cream to thin it out. Drizzle the caramel sauce over each piece of cheesecake and top with a dollop of sweetened whipped cream if desired.
- Note: You'll need a large food processor -- preferably with a 12-cup capacity -- to make the filling (you can also use an 11-cup, but you may have a bit of leakage). If you don't have one, it's fine to use a Kitchenaid Mixer or electric beaters for the filling and a small food processor for the crust.

Reviews & Comments
My family doesn't care for gingersnaps. Would chocolate wafers or graham crackers work? Thank you.
Could I just pour the caramel sauce over the whole cheesecake? With many guests for Thanksgiving and the cheesecake will be on a dessert buffet, it's easier if the caramel is a topping instead of a sauce.
Jen, couldn't you make this a couple of days ahead or would the crust get soggy? I have a cheese cake with 1/2 ginger snap crumbs and !/2 graham cracker crumbs and have frozen it with no problem
Made exactly as written and loved it. Hint for baking…mine still jiggled at the end of the baking time, so I turned off the oven and left it in for another 45 minutes. PERFECT! Question, can I just put a pan of hot water on the shelf below the cake and skip the water bath.? Removing from bath is where I sometimes mess up.
Based on the recipe and reviews, I'd really like to try this for Thanksgiving. However I only have a small food processor and will have to use my KitchenAid for the filling. Could you please provide more details for using a mixer rather than a processor? Thank you.
If I make this cheese cake on Sunday, freeze it and thaw it out for Wednesday night will the crust be OK or still soggy? Is it OK the freeze it?
This looks incredibly delicious! I was wondering if you can replace the granulated sugar in the filling with brown sugar or maple sugar. Also, is there alternative to the corn syrup for the caramel sauce? Thanks!
Caramel sauce is so easy, seems to flavor-mellow after a couple days in refrig. However, the gingersnap crust does get wet, early on. Tasty but wet! That was a turn off. I might try to mix gingersnaps with graham crackers for a crust? I wonder if that would help? I also cut the butter a tbs less. The filling is excellent! Very rich, smooth, lovely. Guests loved the filling, sauce, dab of whipped cream.
I questionned previously about the caramel sauce – asking how long it can "live" in the refrigerator before spoiling. I'm waiting for an answer. I would like to make this for an upcoming dinner party in a couple of weeks, would like to be able to make the sauce well in advance, if possible.
Thank you for your help/answer.

Well I tried it but haven't had it yet looks good but it took a lot longer to cook as the temp was only 325 degrees .Going to have it for dinner today I have a back up in case it is a flop. I hope it's not .
Janet I totally agree – 1 1/2 hrs at 325 degrees was not adequate for me either. It took well over 2 hours for mine to 'not jiggle'. It was still delicious though and thumbs up from all family members
I agree, I am over 2 hours as well. I'm excited about this recipe; the batter tasted divine!!!! I'll report back…
I made this cheesecake and it was so delicious. I substituted mascarpone for one of the cream cheese just to give it a more velvety texture. So I used cream cheese and mascarpone. It was great. However, I think 5 tablespoon of butter may be a little much for the ginger snap crust. It made it too moist and gummy. I'd use a little less butter next time. Otherwise, I love this recipe. Thanks Jenn.
Do you know if I can substitute dark corn syrup rather than the light variety, for the caramel sauce? I only have the dark on hand. The cheesecake is in the oven now… Canadian Thanksgiving feast tomorrow – yum :)
So…, I couldn't get to the store to buy the light corn syrup, and since the worst thing that could happen would be a burnt batch of caramel sauce, I decided to try using the dark corn syrup in the recipe. It turned out great! I think, because it's only 2 tablespoons of the dark corn syrup added to a full cup of white sugar, the original color (before cooking it in the microwave) isn't dark at all… pretty much the same color as you have in your pictures. The darkening, after cooking, was very evident, and the sauce is delicious!
Can't wait to try this . I'm gong to make it for Thanksgiving and will take it to a family dinner.
Can I use 15% cooking cream instead of 35% cream? Also lite cream cheese? These are the ingredients I have on hand. Let me know if I have to go to the store…
? Can your Pumpkin Cheesecake w/ Gingersnap Crust be prepared in a 13×9 Pyrex? If yes, what would the modification be to the temp and bake time?
Impromptu patio gathering for 60-70 guests at my home. Excited to have found "you." All recipes for our 9/20 gathering will be prepared, w/o a trial-run from Once Upon A Chef.
This is now on my family's must have dish for the holidays. It is so good. The first year I served it I couldn't get the hang of making home made caramel, so went with the store bought kind. I have no mastered caramel, so I imagine it will be even tastier now.
I did two of these and took one to work, my co-workers devour it, that's how good it is. I had one piece and between my brothers and my boyfriend it was ll gone. Delicious, it's easy to make.
This cheesecake is perfection; or as they say "to die for".
Wow, what an amazing recipe!!! Thank you so much for this! I tend to be a bit skeptical of recipes from the internet as I've had some real disasters. I am good cook with 40 years of experience (but not anywhere near a chef) so the disasters have not been my fault. Anyway, everything in this recipe was absolutely right on and I can appreciate that you did indeed test six recipes. I usually find that I end up tweaking a lot of recipes but there's no need to do that with this one :) Right down to the caramel sauce, it all turned out perfectly. I've never made caramel sauce in the microwave before and it is so easy to do…..much easier than on the stove. Again, THANK YOU
Hi Jenn, I am making the pumpkin cheese cake, it's said about 11/2 hrs for baking, but mine still seems jiggle. Is it ok to keep baking it until it stop jiggling and should I add more water in the pan to keep it moist so it don't crack on top?
Silly question. Is it possible to get the pie off the springform pan bottom and on to a serving plate afterwards??? Or do you just keep it on and place that on the serving plate??? So excited to make this!!! Wish me luck, although all of your recipes that I make come out awesome!!
What a treat!!! I make two and gave one away and got rave reviews. The one I served was loved by all. I am now making it for Thanksgiving in place of traditional pumpkin pie and everyone is happy about the change. Thank you so much for this divine recipe. I love this website and it's philosophy.
I cannot wait to try this in a few days!! How far in advance can I make this? Would you recommend no further than a day ahead?
Made this last year for Thanksgiving and it received rave reviews. It is on the menu again this year by request!
This recipe is excellent. Our family loved it! Thanks!
I just made this today for Thanksgiving Day (Canadian)….I was disappointed in the texture…the caramel sauce is to die for though !! ..I'm hoping the texture will improve with overnight in the fridge…maybe it wasn't cooled enough……maybe I didn't cook it long enough?? 3 1/2 hrs…but did have some trouble regulating the temp in my Honduran gas oven ….I doubled the spices, it found it was still bland….
The cheesecake was a huge hit this evening! I wasn't sure what kind of pumpkin I should buy, the pure pumpkin, which came in a 14 oz can or the pumpkin pie filling, which came in a 15 oz can. Since the recipe called for a 15 oz can, I used the pie filling. I still added the spices as per the recipe. I was told that guests at the dinner, who don't like pumpkin, loved the cheesecake because the pumpkin flavor was subtle. I suspect that had I used the pure pumpkin, the results might have been different.
Also found that I needed to bake the cake for 2 hours and let it continue to set in the oven with the heat turned off and the oven door shut.
Great recipe which I will add to my go-to recipes! Thanks for sharing it.
I found the 9″ springform too small, as the filling almost spilled over. Next time I will use an 11″ springform. Waiting for it to come out of the oven, but so far it smells great.
Looks interesting, will leave more details once I've baked it
I just want to say that I can't stand pumpkin pie and have always thought it was disgusting. I wanted an alternative and I stumbled upon this recipe. I was skeptical but my GOD these are the most delicious dessert I have EVER tasted. I made 36 muffin-sized cheesecakes and froze them for our upcoming Canadian Thanksgiving dinner and to be honest, I don't want to share them at all. Thanks so much for posting this recipe!
I love pumpkin cheesecake.
OMG ! I was lucky to get a bite. Made this for a party and it was gone I. The blink of an eye
I made this for family thanksgiving last year. It was great. I did find that I had to cook it for a lot longer than the recommended time (about 45min) as the center was still runny, and it ended up cracking on top. But it tasted amazing do it was well worth the time put into it :)
The caramel sauce was a nice addition to the cheesecake. Be careful when covering the springform pan with foil because I apparently had some holes and water got in. I thought the cheesecake was ruined, but it wasn't thankfully. It was very creamy and the gingersnap crust was nice and crunchy.
I made your Pumpkin Cheesecake with Gingersnap Crust and Caramel Sauce for a Thanksgiving potluck with friends last year. The filling was really flavorful and creamy! My only complaint with the recipe was that I found the crust to be a little soggy. I weighed my crust ingredients with a kitchen scale, so I think the portion were correct, but it didn't have a very pleasant texture. I prefer a crust with a little more heft to contrast with the smooth and creamy cheesecake filling. Again, I'm not sure if that was a fault of mine or the recipe.
When I make cheesecake, I find that the extra step of straining the batter into the pan really helps get out any lumps of cream cheese, egg, or spices and ensures a perfectly smooth filling. Also, I've learned that a piece of heavy duty white thread (or unflavored dental floss) can ensure a gorgeous presentation of a cut cheesecake.
Ok I admit it I am a cheescake nut, love to experiment with different flavors of cheesecake, this one, is really wonderful, with the gingersnap crust & the luscious sauce…the perfect decadent dessert.
This is the BEST dessert eva!!! I made it for "the girls" yearly Christmas dinner and one women said it was like havng an orgasm in her mouth…. EVERYONE Loved loved loved it!!! I also made it for family at Christmas and again rave reviews!!!
I followed insturctions to the T and it was flawless… Thank you for sharing these wonderful recipes.
This sounds amazing! I'm throwing it together this evening for a late Thanksgiving celebration with friends tomorrow. Your cheesecake looks so beautifully sliced! Do you have any unique techniques for how to get perfectly sliced cheesecake?
I made this for Thanksgiving. It turned out perfect! Thanks for making it so easy for my first time making it Jen!
I love pumpkin cheesecake — I'm always ready to try a new rendition
I've been making pumpkin cheesecake for Thanksgiving for years now. When my gluten intolerant sister visits I simply use gluten free ginger snaps in the crust — always yummy.
My birthday was the day after Thanksgiving so my hubby made me a pumpkin cheesecake. I love the idea of doing a gingersnap crust!
I made this for Thanksgiving dinner, and it was a huge hit (though mine turned out to be more caramel-colored and less orange than yours)! Due to a lack of communication, my sister in law also made pumpkin cheesecake, but of the more 'conventional' variety — there were loads of difference in the intensity of flavor! Thanks for another wonderful recipe.
I made this for Thanksgiving dinner and it was a huge hit. It competed with traditional pumpkin pie and a layered chocolate dessert. Loved the Caramel Sauce in the microwave and LOVED it on the cheesecake. Adding it to my recipe file as a keeper.
I made this for our thanksgiving celebration.
I have no idea how much the quality of my cheesecake changed with me being an absolute beginner and NOT using a food processor.
I committed to the project, bought all the ingredients, and then realized my food processor was out of commission.
Cookies where smashed in a plastic baggie. Not sure I incorporated it well with the butter and sugar when I transferred it to a bowl.
I don't have any measuring cups, and I am in the EU–so I just crossed my fingers that 24 oz of cream cheese is equivalent to 680 grams. Trying to whisk it was so tiresome, and I wasn't even sure it was all incorporated.
When it came to the eggs, maybe I underbeat it, but I didn't want any cracks! And when pouring my hot water for the bath, I spilled a couple tablespoons of water into my cheesecake.
While it was really stressful, I can look back and laugh at it because the recipe turned out great!!
There were no leftovers, except for a small slice I saved for myself because I wanted to see what would happen if I would have let it set overnight–and if you can, it is definitely a lot more flavorful the next day. I also felt the texture was a bit creamier.
Next time I make this, day ahead!
Thanks for reading my novella! And thank you for the recipe.
Making this right now, for tommorow. Wish me luck first time at making a cheesecake. It just looked to good to pass up!
I just put mine in the oven and can not wait until tomorrow to have a slice, or two:)…I did my filling in a blender up until the eggs.I tranferred to a mixing bowl to add the eggs.
I just placed this beautiful dessert in the oven! Thanks for such an amazing Thanksgiving recipe!!! I am so thankful for your blog!!! :D It is always my "go to" site for deliciousness!
I made this last night and it looks amazing. However, I used an 11 cup Cuisinart Food Processor and the filling was leaking through the bottom of the work bowl. You must work fast if you don't want to lose too much of the filling. I ended up with a few pea sized cream cheese chunks because I had to stop processing the filling and get it in the pan. Not a huge problem as I used my finger and a fork to break up the chunks of cream cheese. I wish my food processor had a sealed blade. The max fill line for liquids in the work bowl is very low. Great Recipe! Can't wait to taste it tomorrow. Happy Thanksgiving!
Everybody in my family absolutely loved this cheesecake. Thank you for sharing this recipe. I will be adding it to my cache.
Looks yummy. I always make pumpkin cheesecake for T'giving. I'm going to try this version tomorrow.
It is a picture perfect cheesecake…thanks for the post…Happy Thanksgiving to yiou and yours…e*
Oh my, this looks so good. The recipe looks simple and easy to follow. Thanks for perfecting for us! Can't wait to try that caramel sauce.
OMG, my dream dessert! I have tried making a pumpkin cheesecake,(recipes from the internet) and have not had success. I cannot wait to try this one. Thank you for doing all the trial and error, and perfecting this dream come true.
This looks so wonderful! How large is your food processor? I'm worried that it will overflow in mine.
Mine was about to overflow. I just took a couple cups out and put it in a big mixing bowl, continued mixing it all together in the food processor, and then just stirred it all in the big mixing bowl. Turned out fine.
Mmm I made a dessert with a gingersnap crust a few weeks ago and I love the flavor – this looks amazing! Love the caramel drizzled on top
Step aside pumpkin pie!!
Once you go pumpkin cheesecake at Thanksgiving, I really don't think you can go back. My family has our own pumpkin praline version, but I love your gingersnap crust idea. I think it would be just perfect.
Thanks for the great recipe and HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
Looks amazing! Anyone would be lucky to have this grace their dessert table.

US job openings barely grew in NovemberBy CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER
The Associated Pres | January 11,2013AP File Photo
A job seeker leaves his contact information with a potential employer during a recent job fair in New York City. Job openings in the United States moved up slightly to 3.7 million in November.WASHINGTON U.S. employers advertised about the same number of jobs in November as in October, suggesting hiring will stay modest over the next few months.
Job openings ticked up 11,000 last month to 3.67 million, the Labor Department said Thursday. Thats about 12 percent more than were advertised in the same month a year ago.
The number of available jobs is slowly climbing back to the roughly 4 million that were advertised each month before the recession began in December 2007.
More than 12 million people were unemployed in November. That means there were 3.3 unemployed people, on average, competing for each open job. Thats the lowest ratio since November 2008. Still, in a healthy economy, the ratio is roughly 2 to 1.
Separately, the Labor Department said the number of people seeking unemployment aid slightly increased last week, ticking up 4,000 to a seasonally adjusted 371,000. The four-week average, a less volatile measure, rose after falling to a four-year low the previous week.
Overall, the two reports suggest that the job market is improving at the start of 2013 at roughly the same slow but steady pace as last year.
Overall hiring was largely unchanged in November, according to the Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey, or JOLTS. Companies hired 4.3 million people, just 3,000 more than in October. Layoffs ticked down to nearly 1.7 million, 10,000 below Octobers number.
The number of people who quit their jobs rose, but was little changed compared to this summer. More quits can be a good sign for the job market. Most people quit when they move to another job.
Job openings rose in retail and hotels and restaurants, which likely reflect holiday-related gains. Openings ticked down in construction and manufacturing.
Employers added 161,000 jobs in November and 155,000 in December, according to the government employment report released Friday. The unemployment rate fell stayed at 7.8 percent in December. It fell to that level in November from 7.9 percent in October.
The gain in hiring nearly matched the average of 153,000 jobs per month in 2011 and 2012. Thats been just enough to slowly push down the unemployment rate, which fell 0.7 percentage points in 2012.
Thursdays JOLTS report looks at total hiring, layoffs and quits. The report released Friday measured net hiring and unemployment.
The JOLTs report suggests that employers didnt step up layoffs or cut back on hiring in the midst of the debate over the tax and spending changes known as the fiscal cliff. Many economists feared that the prospect of higher taxes and steep cuts in federal spending would drag on job gains.
Thats a good sign, since more budget showdowns are expected. Congress must vote to raise the governments $16.4 trillion borrowing limit by around late February. If not, the government risks defaulting on its debt. Republicans will likely demand deep spending cuts as the price of raising the debt limit.MORE IN National / World BusinessBRUSSELS European Union institutions are piling pressure on Google to change the way it...

Healdsburg Cottage Rental Photos and Description
Cottage, 1 Bedroom + Other (See Description), 1 Bath, (Sleeps 2-4)
This Cottage on Fitch Mountain is a perfect retreat for a couple or a small family. Recently fully renovated, the cottage offers modern comforts and sleek style distinctly influenced by its mid-century roots.
Centrally located for a wine country vacation yet only a five minute walk from the Russian River, three miles from the Healdsburg Plaza and less than 10 minutes away from wine tasting in the Alexander Valley, Russian River Valley and Dry Creek Valley.
This cottage was originally built as a vacation home on the Russian River. The entire building was renovated to modern standards then decorated in a classic 1940s theme. It retains the charm and feel of a country vacation rental with modern conveniences. The cottage has easy access to the River, the Healdsburg Plaza and the surrounding wine area.
The cottage has an open living and dining room, one bedroom, one bath and a full kitchen. The kitchen has a gas stove and modern appliances. The dining room has an oversized table with plenty of room to spread out and enjoy a meal, a game or to plan the next day's adventure. The living room of this vacation rental is furnished with a leather sofa and a leather loveseat and several large ottomans to curl up in for conversation or to enjoy a movie on Netflix.
The master bedroom has a luxuriously comfortable queen sized bed and classic mid century era antiques. The bathroom sports classic white subway and hex tiles and a claw foot tub.
Upstairs is a sleeping loft with a full sized bed and library area with low ceilings. There is a laundry room with washer and dryer and a patio with a picnic table out back. The front porch has a semi-private enclosed sitting area.
The house is designed for two people but there is room for a couple of kids upstairs in the sleeping loft. On one side of the loft is a library with a comfy reading chair. The other side has a full sized futon bed on a sleeping platform.
With more space, more privacy and more amenities, make your own breakfast, pack a picnic for the afternoon and fix a romantic dinner with fresh produce found in our local markets. This Healdsburg vacation rental is a comfortable home base for your Wine Country vacation.
Keywords: Healdsburg Vacation Rental, Wine Country, Fitch Mountain, Russian River, Alexander Valley, Dry Creek Valley, Chalk Hill, Knight's Valley, Russian River Valley, Sonoma County, Winery, Vineyard, Wine, Affordable, River, Cabin
- Suitability:
- children welcome

Why Monique chose Healdsburg
The location is perfect for a wine country vacation. Fitch Mountain is cooler at night and the easy river lifestyle is perfect for relaxing at the end of the day. The cottage is only a few minutes from wine tasting, the Plaza and everything Healdsburg.
What makes this cottage unique
We love to enjoy the vacation atmosphere of staying on Fitch Mountain. We especially enjoy the front porch and walking down to enjoy the river. In the summer, we love to take our nieces and nephews to swim and play in the river.
Guestbook comments from the owner
*** Review copied as published on another booking site ***
Owners were very nice people to deal with. Great location for touring that part of wine country. Cottage was very well equipped. Slept soundly every night.
If I say too much good about the place I'm afraid they will raise the rates when they realize what a value it is.

By Bad Man | Follow on Twitter
As much as Christian Bale has ever gotten flack for flipping out on movie sets, one of the lesser known facts about him is that he's just a genuinely good guy, and a lot of his bad press has failed to take this into consideration. He's visited ill children, flown one to Disneyland, met with victims of the Aurora shooting and most recently he made a lengthy phone call to an 8-year-old leukemia sufferer Zach Guillot, to chat with the boy about Zach's favorite superhero, Batman.
Bale didn't publicize the event, the same way he didn't let the press in on any of the others either. This isn't something he makes a big thing of, and here he's just made a call to a sick young boy for a chat about his favorite comic character. The only reason we know Bale called Zach is because Zach's family filmed it and put it on YouTube.
Personally I was pretty gob smacked and delighted. Christian Bale really is a brilliant guy.
Below is the vid where Christian Bale phones 8 Year old leukemia sufferer Zach, taken by his family.
Warning, bring tissues. It gets emotional:

Guestbook comments from the owner
We have stayed in this villa for the past three years (all in September) its a lovely relaxing villa with a great pool and spa, and we have booked again for the fourth time to go in May 2013. Christine is always so helpful and makes booking the villa so easy and unstressfull!
Its in a good location not far from all the attractions and has sweetbay just across the road and some other shops not far away. (starbucks and a new dunkin donuts just down the road to bring back by the pool)!!!
We have been to other villas on our other trips but now only want to return to this one as its always clean and well looked after, unlike some others we have booked in the past!
The wifi is a great bonus as we always bring our Mac with us!
All in all if you want a comfy, spacious, clean, and well located villa with a really nice pool and spa then you defiantly wont go wrong in booking this one.
We would recommend this villa to anyone without hesitation.
Cant wait to stay here again, thanks to Christine

Meet JFK's Secret Service 'Jackie Robinson'
- Written by Todd Johnson/Special to The New Tri-State Defender
- Published in News
CHICAGO – It's been more than 50 years, but when your job is to protect a president, you never forget what it was like.
For Abraham Bolden, protecting President John F. Kennedy in 1961 was a "miracle," for someone who grew up poor in East St. Louis.
"Not one time that the president saw me in the White House, did he pass me and not say, 'How are you Mr. Bolden?'" Bolden said in an interview this week from his home. "He just seemed like a very rich man who was out of place who should have been among us – a leader among our people."
Friday, the 50th anniversary of Kennedy's assassination, marked yet another opportunity for Bolden to recall the several intimate moments he shared with Kennedy and other members of his family and administration. Bolden, 78, joined the United States Secret service in October, 1960 after several years in law enforcement.
He first came face to face with Kennedy less than a year later, after a celebratory stop in Chicago to thank Mayor Richard J. Daley for helping secure votes.
New to the agency and one of only two African-American agents nationwide, Bolden was routinely given what his white agent counterparts considered the "low-level" assignments or posts – such as standing guard in front of restrooms or areas far away from the 'action.'
"President Kennedy looked at me, he smiled and he said, 'Tell me, Mr. Bolden...has there ever been a Negro on the White House detail Secret Service in Washington, D.C.?'" Bolden recalls. "I looked at him, I said 'Not to my knowledge, Mr. President.'"
Just like that.
A few months later, Bolden was inside the White House and traveling alongside the president. He boarded Kennedy's yacht and sailed with him along the Potomac River, accompanied his family at their vacation home on Cape Cod in Massachusetts and to their farm compound at Glen Ora in Virginia.
Kennedy frequently introduced Bolden to other members of the administration. The president's friendliness and high praise of Bolden sticks with him to this day.
"He's the Jackie Robinson of the Secret Service," Bolden recalls Kennedy saying of him. "And it almost brought tears to my eyes."
Bolden's euphoria didn't last long. Just one month into his assignment, he left — disheartened by the racism and reckless behavior of some of his fellow agents. Bolden alleges fellow agents drinking on duty, "womanizing" and putting the president's life in danger.
He said the recent scandals involving the Secret Service are his past concerns coming full circle.
Bolden also claims he was called a Ni**er on multiple occasions and subject to racist cartoon drawings and insults. He returned to Chicago to continue his work investigating counterfeit claims.
He wrote a book in 2008, "The Echo from Dealey Plaza." It details his time in the Secret Service, as well the story of his 1964 felony conviction for soliciting a $50,000 bribe from a counterfeiter.
Bolden maintains his innocence.
He wasn't in Dallas on that fateful day in 1963, but still feels in some way responsible for what happened to President Kennedy.
"I was an agent of the United States Secret Service," Bolden said. "Whatever they did, I did. History is not going to look favorable (sic) on the United States Secret Service. And I was a part of that."
Bolden is retired and lives in Chicago.
