Location: Guerneville, Russian River, Sonoma County, Wine Country, California, USA
Accommodations: House, 3 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths (Sleeps 5-6)
Location: Angell House is located on a quiet cul-de-sac on a redwood-covered hillside just outside of downtown Guerneville, only a few miles from shopping, dining, nightlife and Johnson's Beach with its shallow swimming lagoon and boat rentals. Two miles to the west, there's Northwood Golf Club and beyond that Monte Rio's charming movie theater. This home has its own fenced playground and a few minutes away, there's also a well-maintained public playground and tennis courts. Across the street, there are 40 private acres of hiking trails through the mixed redwood forest.
House: Angell House is a completely remodeled two-story cottage with an heirloom quality, treated with the best of traditional River decor, including wood paneling and hardwood floors, and filled with antiques. Sleeping six on two floors, the entry level of this home features two bedrooms, a bathroom with shower and reading area with bookshelf. One bedroom has a king bed with gorgeous carved wood headboard and luxury linens and small TV/VCR combo. The other has a single daybed and desk with printer/fax. Upstairs, the living room is a gracious family space with plenty of comfortable seating, gas fireplace, game table (with lots of games and puzzles), 42" flatscreen HDTV with On Demand, DVD/CD Player and home theater sound system, and a single sleeper. There is also an antique organ with foot bellows. Opening off the living room, the master bedroom has a queen size brass bed, 19" flatscreen TV with DVD, wonderful forest view and its own bathroom with oversized shower. The kitchen is a chef's dream with granite counters, high-quality, stainless appliances and gas stove. Directly past the kitchen, the formal dining room has forest views on three sides and an elegant, antique dining set for six. Opening from the dining room, there's a concrete patio with outdoor dining set and gas grill; stairs lead from the patio to the yard below. This home has wireless high-speed Internet access.
Grounds: The grounds of this home are made for a family vacation! Angell House has a large, flat yard, paved with wood chips, adjacent to a hillside covered with redwoods and ferns, accessed both from the front of the house and steps from the upper patio, and secured with 6' fences. This yard in a forest glade is furnished with bistro tables, umbrellas and loungers. Just beyond an antique gate, the hot tub is big enough for six people and occupies its own private area of the yard with outdoor shower, surrounded by bamboo. Beyond the hot tub, the new playground set (wood fort, slide, swings, climbing wall & ropes, and sandbox) is fenced and safe from the road for the 10 and under set (The building in the background is locked and not part of the play area.). Just across the street there is access (with signed permission from owner) to the 40 private acres of mixed redwood forest. The trails are wide and easy enough for adults but there are some steep stretches. Children six years old and up will be little mountain goats, but younger children may not be up to the hike. Well-behaved dogs on leash are allowed on the trails but must not be allowed to bark at or chase wildlife.

"It was great, the first time we’ve ever rented, which made us nervous, but the home was well appointed with everything we needed. Thank you very much!"
