Old charm river house amongst the redwoods and sunshine. Perfect for a romantic getaway or family fun. A cozy place to spend the holidays. Knotty pine throughout with redwood beams. High beam-ceiling living room with skylights that open and a large rock fireplace. One block from a quiet beach on the Russian River. Great place to launch the house-supplied kayaks.
The river house offers a year round retreat, a serene and peaceful setting where you can do everything or absolutely nothing. Picture yourself in the hot tub secluded by 9 majestic redwood trees. Follow the pathway that leads around the house, meandering through the fern and flower garden. Find yourself in one of two patio areas or simply sitting on a rocking chair on the front deck and reading a good book with your morning coffee or evening wine.
The living room invites you to curl up and get cozy in front of the rock fireplace in the fall/winter months. In spring and summer open the windows and skylights, watch your favorite baseball team on the 37" flatscreen TV or listen to music on the quality stereo.
Recently remodeled bathroom and kitchen still holds the same charm of the early 1900 craftsmanship. The kitchen is fully equipped and includes colorful Fiestaware. The dining area boasts the same craftsmanship with a farmhouse table and bench seating. The master bedroom, with vaulted ceiling, is tastefully decorated with knotty pine furniture. The second bedroom is furnished with built-in bunk beds and matching desk, both made from knotty pine, and a flatscreen TV. The house is comfortably furnished throughout, keeping with the country cabin and river theme.
The furnished deck includes a stainless steel grill, outdoor heaters and porch swing. While your steak is grilling, shoot a game of pool in the adjoining, partially enclosed room which also includes a TV. The deck and room overlook the patio, hot tub and play area below. Eight colorful adirondak chairs await your seating pleasure in the lower patio which also has a gas BBQ. When you're tired of sitting, enjoy a game of shuffleboard or ping pong. Or take a kayak a short distance to the river for a peaceful paddle where you may see blue heron and river otters.
Whether in the house or outside, there are all-around views of redwoods, tree-lined hills, the sun and the moon. Upon request, a tent can be set up for guests who like to sleep under the stars.
If you've come to explore the Russian River area you will not be disappointed. Activities all year round. Great hiking in the neighboring Armstrong Woods State Park. Fishing, swimming and boating in the Russian River. Plenty of hiking and biking in the surrounding areas. Enjoy golfing at the nearby Northwood Golf Course or wine tasting at over 100 local wineries, Korbel Winery just down the road. Minutes away is the Russian River Blues Festival and Jazz Festival in September, just two of the many outdoor concerts in the surrounding area.
Seventy miles north of San Francisco, 15 miles west of Charles M. Schultz Airport in Santa Rosa where daily flights are offered by Horizon Air to/from L.A., Las Vegas, Seattle and Portland. Less than a half hour drive to the Pacific Ocean (Jenner and Bodega) and the Russian River/Dry Creek wine country. Just a few minutes to downtown Guerneville.
Your stay promises to be a memorable one.
