Spend your stay at Westside Lodge with friends or family kayaking, tubing on the river, watching movies in the great room, or just relaxing on one of the 2 enormous riverview porches. It's also a perfect location for wine tasting along Westside Road, a 12-mile scenic drive directly into Healdsburg. This unique, restored 1936 cabin is located in the heart of Russian River Valley, and is also perfect for bicycling and fishing.

Click through to the home's website (link below) to check out reservations calendar.

This home is an 1800 square foot riverfront cabin on two levels, with original wood paneling and floors, and tasteful + quality furnishings throughout.

We have a new CODED KEYLESS ENTRY system which will allow you to check in without needing to stop anywhere on the way to pick up keys! You will be given a combination to use for the length of your stay. Guests receive a unique code which expires at the end of each booking to insure your security and privacy.

Enter by walking down a dozen or so stairs, past sage, lavender, herbs, calla lilies, and hydrangea flowers to the front porch with seating area, into the dining room with large farmhouse-style table. The very well-equipped kitchen with restored original cabinetry and lacquered wood countertops is adjacent, with Weber propane grill just outside the kitchen door.

The spacious great room with floor-to-ceiling rock fireplace and trestle-beam ceiling offers a forest view with windows on three sides. This room has 50" HDTV with DVD and DVR, bookshelf stereo system and Bose SoundDock for ipod. Large house library includes current food and wine magazines and many classic books. Half bath and queen sleeper on this level. The great room opens to a large riverview porch with outdoor dining and relaxing seating areas. Your stay includes wireless high-speed Internet access and unlimited domestic long distance telephone service with answering machine.

All three very spacious bedrooms are located on lower level and have 100% cotton linens and down comforters, (down alternative comforter available). Master bedroom features Craftsman furnishings, including a king bed, 19" LCD TV with DVD, and a remodeled vintage-style bathroom with tub and shower. Other bedrooms have queen beds, tree views, and share a large Tahoe-inspired bathroom with enormous double shower. There is another full-width riverview porch on this level off the central hallway, with a full-sized daybed and additional outdoor seating.

Stairs hug the building's exterior, and lead down to a stepped path which leads to private river access with kayaks, life vests, paddles, and 4 large heavy-duty inner tubes (included with house rental during the summer months).

Your well-behaved dog is welcome. We have created a landscaped, level area off the front porch for your dog to "take a break" without needing to leave the property. This little spot is planted with Calla lily and lemon balm, and is easily accessed just beyond the front door.

Note: This property has steep stairways and very high balconies with large openings in the railings. Smaller children will need close supervision during their stay. We have direct, private access to the river, but the shore is not visible from the house.
