Location: Guerneville, Russian River, Sonoma County, Wine Country, California, USA (The House is About 25 Minutes from Santa Rosa) View Map
Accommodations: House, 2 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths (Sleeps 4-8)
Real Neato is located just a mile and a half from Guerneville where great shopping and good restaurants abound. Canoes and kayaks can be rented there or at Burke's, about 8 miles east on River Road. Korbel Winery is only 5 minutes away and we are just 10 minutes from Westside Drive where several top-notch wineries can be visited. Armstrong Redwood Park which has miles of great hiking is also only minutes away. If you prefer the ocean, the Pacific Ocean (Jenner, Goat Rock, etc.) are only 25 minutes to the west.
The huge "great room' is sunny and cheerful with large double-paned windows throughout. Beautiful hardwood floors and oriental carpets give it a warm, cheerful aspect. The dining room table will seat 10 when fully extended. All kitchen and washing appliances are sparkling new. There is a deck extending 3/4 around the house leading to a hot tub which overlooks the river. The large front deck perched above the river is anchored by two redwood trees. In the summer you will be delighted watching a parade of canoes, kayaks and frolicking swimmers. In the morning and early evening the ducklings and many water birds venture out.
Because we are on a bend in the river, there are delightful river views from every room in the house (except one back bathroom). The master bedroom which stretches across the front of the house has views both up and down the river.
River access is available by stairs on both sides of the house and on the left is a new swimming dock with a ladder for easy egress/ingress.

Why the Owner Chose Guerneville
River front homes are hard to find so we were thrilled when this house which is so close to the river you could almost fish from the deck came on the market. It is only a mile and a half from Guerneville which has a 24 hour Safeway, good restaurants and shops. Armstrong Redwood Park is about 15 minutes away and Jenner and the Pacific Ocean only about 20 minutes away.
The Unique Benefits at this House
We love watching the parade of canoes and kayaks coming down the river on a summer day or just sitting on the deck watching baby ducks and other birds. We have uncovered two sets of stairs down to the river and added ladders in the water so it's easy to swim. In the winter we enjoy gathering around the gas fireplace which turns on with a flick of a switch or warming up in the hot tub.
Owner's Map of Guerneville
Jeremy and I had been renting at the Russian River for 7 years. We loved the proximity to our home in San Rafael (one hour travel time), the beauty of the river and the fun of swimming in fresh water. I had always wanted to have a home with a water view and we got it! There is a beautiful river view from every room except one bathroom.
