The Black Nest was well appointed and had a charming atmosphere. We were very comfortable and enjoyed the indoor and outdoor spaces. A few of the features were not working during our stay such as the outdoor lighting and small fountain on the entry side and back yard of the home, but didn't really affect our stay at all, just would have been nice for ambiance.

Fantastic house with everything we needed for a full week exploring the area. The fire pit was a perfect way to relax after a long day. The kitchen was stocked with everything we could need. Loved snuggling in and watching our favorite shows on a comfy couch with a big tv. We absolutely loved this house.

Perfect Honeymoon Stay!

Having stayed at many a short term rental, there are three simple yet crucial things that make a stay go from good to great: clean digs, comfortable beds, and quality linens. The Black Nest has all of these things and much more. The location is serene, the amenities are quality (hot tub & fire pits especially), and there’s plenty to do in and around the area. We had a wonderful stay for our mini honeymoon in Sonoma County. Choose the Black Nest for your next Russian River getaway - I know we will!

I fell for the "10/10" reviews, but my experience was far from it. While the property is "cute," the management seems more interested in fees than hospitality.The Math Doesn't Add UpFor a tiny 520 sq. ft. space, the costs are staggering:The "41-Hour" Stay: You get less than two full days unless you fork over an extra 150 to "upgrade" your check-in/out times.Cleaning Fee: A massive 240, yet the guest book is filled with "clean or else" threats. It’s hard to imagine a cleaner getting even a fraction of that for such a small space.The "Surprise" Fee: They hit you with a 90 NON-REFUNDABLE damage fee before you even step through the door.The "10/10" IssuesDespite the premium price, the maintenance was severely lacking:The "Cold" Tub: The hot tub never actually got hot.Bird Poop: The patio furniture and deck were covered in it. Clearly, the 240 cleaning fee doesn’t cover the outdoor living space.Dirty Windows: Hard to enjoy the view through streaks and grime.Furniture: The couch feels about 100 years old—completely lost its support.Amenities: No ice machine and the kitchen equipment is barely usable.The Biggest Red Flag: PrivacyThe property has hidden door cameras that were not disclosed. We didn't realize we were being filmed until after we had walked to the (cold) tub in our "birthday suits" several times. Aside from being a massive invasion of privacy, this is a huge safety and disclosure fail.Bottom Line: Between the hidden fees, the "clean or

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear that your stay didn’t meet expectations. We do want to provide some context, as many of the items you mentioned are standard across the vacation rental industry. Cleaning fees, damage waivers, and set check-in/check-out times are typical and clearly outlined prior to booking. That said, we always strive to be transparent so guests can make informed decisions before confirming a reservation. Regarding cleanliness, we consistently receive 5-star reviews specifically highlighting how clean and well-maintained our homes are. If there were any concerns during your stay, such as the patio, windows, or hot tub, we genuinely wish you had reached out to us in the moment. Our team is always available and would have gladly addressed these issues right away. We also want to clarify your concern about cameras. All cameras on the property are fully compliant with platform policies and local regulations. They are exterior-only, not placed in any private areas, and specifically do not face the hot tub. Their purpose is solely for safety and are positioned toward the steps leading up from the driveway. We appreciate your feedback, as it helps us continue to improve, and we’re sorry we didn’t have the opportunity to resolve these concerns during your stay.
