This tucked-away cottage was a lovely retreat in the lush redwood forest. I shared pictures with my family and they said it looked like a fairy house! The home and property were both very clean, the foliage was beautiful and the entire experience was calming and quiet.

This was just the quiet getaway we needed. Cabin was great. Just big enough for two. And the amazing view of the redwoods from the hot tub can’t be beat. The cabin was clean, cozy and toasty warm for the season. We would love to return when the town is a little more active. There were a few dining places we were excited to try, but did not realize the time we booked was more of a sleepy season. We made it work, but it’s such a cute town that we’d love to see it in its full glory.

Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re so glad the cabin was the peaceful getaway you were hoping for. The redwood views from the hot tub really are something special, and we’re happy to hear the cabin felt cozy and comfortable during the season. You’re absolutely right that the town is a bit quieter at certain times of year, but that’s also part of its charm. Thank you again for staying with us, and we hope to host you again soon.
This cottage was magical! We celebrated our anniversary thia past weekend. Everything was so serene, thank you for the pleasant stay. It was in a great location, everything is so close by. Highly recommend!

We stayed in this very cute cottage. The outdoor decks were especially charming and was a great opportunity to sit outside in the trees. The property was perfect. The only downside was getting up that narrow road. It can be especially difficult in the rain.

Response from VrboOwner on 11 Nov 2025
Glad you had a sweet stay. Yeah, most of Guerneville has narrow, paved roads. That is what keeps our area so "foresty" and charming. You just drive a bit slower. Anyway,
We would love to host you again,
Thanks,
Stace
Beautiful place to stay. Great place to unplug and enjoy nature. Stay quiet the birds will come play in the trees and plants around you. House was clean, tidy and cozy. Perfect for a disconnected, reconnect for couples. Not far from the little town, the water or hiking.

Perfect cottage. Amazing patio. Kayak on Russian River was incredible, even saw an otter! Nine holes of golf at an Alister mcKenzie designed course. Coffee at Bazaar. Pizza from Main Street Bistro. We did everything and loved it. Especially the last minute brownies, they were all devoured. (Thanks, Montana!)Really appreciated everything our host did.

We welcomed the quiet and solitude of Guerneville Cottage as respite from the numerous noisy pool parties and activities of Lazy Bear Week. The generous outdoor space really enabled us to enjoy the coziness of the cottage itself.
