Nice quiet place

The location was good for everything:the river, hiking, grocery etc. It was nice to be away from the city noise, and we enjoyed the quiet & beautiful nature right in their backyard. The owner was nice and prompt to respond when we contacted her during the stay.

Great Spot

We love staying at the Russian River and felt lucky to find this house last minute. It’s a great, relaxing location for a couples getaway and the backyard is huge. There were a couple hiccups that the property management company handled promptly and with professionalism. Highly recommend!

Clean, comfortable getaway

We had a nice stay in Guerneville. The home was clean and well appointed. We did notice there appears to be an apartment underneath the home which we didn't see on the listing, but it was locked and no one was there. Also, the A/C works however by default it is set to turn itself off when you leave the home, so when we got back after a long day away the house was very hot and took most of the night to cool down. We were able to change the setting for the second day and everything was fine. Overall we were very pleased with our stay and would come back again. Thank you!

Nice getaway in Guerneville

We had never been to the Russian River before, really, and we enjoyed getting away. The house was nice, family friendly (we had our 10-year-old with us), and very comfortable. We made use of the games, and we enjoyed being together in a relaxing environment.

Too far from the river

I got the impression from the pictures that the property was near the river. It was at the top of a hill, steep drive to the top, sheer drop-off in the forest behind the property. It was beautiful, literally living in a forest, but it was remote from the river and the ocean. We did love seeing the Armstrong Redwoods and they were just a few minutes from the property.

Very nice property with a tranquil vibe!

We found the property clean and comfortable. The A/C worked well to keep the temperature very consistent, and the backyard is huge and feels very private. While the property is very close to Guerneville downtown, it's a pretty steep hike for the last quarter mile. Note that the 220v car charging receptacle is NEMA 14-50. Many common 220v EV charging cables will be NEMA 14-30, and the plug will not fit. (the bottom prong will be straight for 14-50, and an L shape for 14-30--common for electric clothes dryers)

This is an awesome place in a great location. Its a bit smaller than what pictures show, but very comfortable. The backyard and hot tub were great. Kitchen has good pots and pans, and decent collection of herbs and spices. Overall a very good experience and we would love to come back.

Relaxing Spot Near Downtown

This was the perfect spot for a family get away. My wife and I had my parents and brother out for a visit in the bay area and wanted a getaway to unwind. The house was well equipped for cooking dinners, relaxing, and catching up with our loved ones. It was close to downtown and the redwoods for a choose your own adventure type hike. Would definitely stay here again!
