Thanks, Jenni! Always like to hear that my guests are enjoying my place. Thanks for the compliment. Yes, being the owner and manager gives my guests the comfort of talking with the owner, one who really cares about them, and not some agency. I know that my guests time is important and you need to know things in a timely fashion and I try to do that. Do come back, love to have you stay. Cameron.

A wonderful spot on the Russian River

We had a wonderful stay at Riverwest! The house is located right on the river with its own small dock and kayaks. We enjoyed paddling the river, hiking on the coast and going in to town. The house was clean and well stocked and we loved the view of the river watching egrets, herons and river otters. Can't wait to come back!

Great River House!

Had a ton of fun at this house, it has an excellent view of the water, and plenty of space for 2 groups to stay. We enjoyed the road closure toward Duncans Mills, walking our way to town. Had a blast by the river, would definitely stay here again!

This house has amazing panoramic view of the river. Great kayaking and swimming right from the house. We saw deer, trout, otters, marine seal, many different kinds of birds right from the balcony.

Perfect Russian River Location

I have been to the Russian River area dozens of times and the location of this property allowed me to enjoy everything I loved about the area. The river is at your feet, easy access to the Armstrong State Park, family wineries and a short drive to the Sonoma coast. The property was clean, well kept and the communication from the owner was excellent. We were grateful to have the opportunity to stay at this property!

Great retreat

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed this home and location for 4 days recently. It was comfortable and spacious for our group of three adults and 2 children. We loved being on the river and used the kayaks that were included everyday. It was a short drive to the ocean and Armstrong Redwoods Park and within an hour of jet skiing on Lake Sonoma--a wonderful retreat from the Bay Area, with excellent WIFI connections.
Response from VrboOwner on 6 Mar 2020
Toni, I'm glad you had such a great time at my place. Thanks for mentioning Lake Sonoma, I haven't mentioned that to my guests or listed it in my website, but now I will. And, I'm glad you enjoyed the river as well. With the reports of poor water quality,, I'm always happy to tell people that because of our location, being so close to the ocean, and the depth of the water, the water quality is always good at our place. Thanks for the kind words. Do come back.

Family property

This location is perfect for a family that needs two living areas. It is right on the river and appealing to those who like to kayak or canoe. The drive to the coast is only 15-20 minutes.

Perfect for our June vacation

We are a family of 6 adults and there was plenty of space. The 4 kayaks and the small dock on the river allowed us to paddle up and down the river or go swimming whenever we wanted. The wifi was good and we were able to work from the house and stream Netflix movies in the evening without issue.
