Place was beautiful. Fully stocked like a home would be. Only complaints were there were a lot of ants and it would have been nice if it was more baby/childproof, especially with the glass and knives in the drawers and the stairs.

Response from VrboOwner on 8 Apr 2026
Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback! We’re really glad to hear you found the home beautiful and well stocked! We’re sorry to hear about the ants during your stay. Being in a rural area, they can occasionally make an appearance, but we do have regular pest control in place and will absolutely follow up on this right away to address it more thoroughly. We also appreciate your note about childproofing. While the home isn’t specifically set up as a childproof space, your feedback is very helpful, Thank you again for staying with us and for sharing your experience!

What an amazing cabin! Absolutely beautiful and exactly as described. The hosts added so many unexpected touches that were really appreciated. Beds were so comfy and the hot tub was perfect. We also loved the second deck to hang out and have a glass of wine and coffee! This cabin is up 4 sets of stairs which we had no trouble with but just pointing out in case stairs are a problem for you. Guerneville was also unexpected with restaurants that served tasty food. I highly recommend!

The perfect redwoods treehouse

They were not playing when they mentioned they’d be a lot stairs but the privacy and views were absolutely worth it. Everything about the house and location were perfect. The hosts were also easy to get in contact with and incredible friendly. We wished our stay was longer and will absolutely be back in the future.

Wonderful spot

We really enjoyed this place. We've staying in short term rentals in the Russian river area before and this one is our favorite so far. Clean, beautifully appointed, nice treetop vistas, nice hot tub, very dog friendly and good communication from the management company. Very nice creek across the street as well. 2 thumbs up.

Nice quiet spot

Clean, updated house nestled in a green forestry setting. We enjoyed the hot tub while relaxing outside. The property is down the street from the river.(chairs and tubes provided) Two min drive to Safeway. Bodega Bay is close by in one direction, and wineries such as Korbel are close in the other. We had a good time. Thanks!
