Everything was excellent. I wish there was some larger mugs so I don’t have to refill my cup with coffee as much other than that very relaxing nice getaway.

Awesome cabin feel near towns like Guernville and Rio Nido. Accessible roads to wine country and gorgeous scenery. House was stunning!

Had a great time at this VRBO. Very quiet neighborhood and the cabin is right on the Russian River with a pathway for you to walk down to a private beach you share with the neighbors. My favorite part of this VRBO was the fireplace in the front living room. I had trouble sleeping most nights and my morning routine would be to go out to the couch, lay down, turn the fireplace on and throw a movie on the smart TV. Perfect way to spent those cool mornings around a warm fire. We will definitely be back.

We had an AMAZING stay! The host was very helpful and accommodating prior to our arrival. The cabin is fully stocked with anything you could need. The home itself it full of thoughtful small details. It rained for most of our stay, but it was the coziest place we could be and the sound of the rain made it even better. It’s just a few minutes from downtown Guerneville, but the home is in a quiet neighborhood that was perfect for walks with our dogs. We are already planning our next stay here!

Relaxing Getaway

We had a wonderful stay at the Old Timer. What a cozy and relaxing treasure of a house. The deck looking over the river was so relaxing and peaceful. The fireplace was a beautiful element that made the evenings so cozy. The entire space was spotlessly clean, and the space was just as it looked in the photos, with the comfiest couch to lounge on. I would definitely return in the future and recommend to others.

Lovely home right on the Russian River! The listing photos are 100% accurate. The home was very clean, well stocked kitchen items, comfortable living areas and bedrooms, and a fabulous deck overlooking the river. The host was responsive pre-trip and we had no issues during our stay. A beautiful setting to spend time with family, we’ll stay here again!

Outstanding riverside property in Monte Rio, and even in walking distance to the various golf course restaurants. Readily walkable to the river in the summertime, fabulous deck and plenty of indoor and outdoor dining seating, plus a fabulous hammock. The space was awesome, and felt spacious. The house, and especially the kitchen, were very well outfitted with everyday essentials. We're already looking forward to our next getaway. Thanks all!
