Really great property with excellent amenities. Felt like everything and anything we needed had been anticipated. Hosts are fantastic. Location is amazing. The property was exactly what our family of 5 (three of which are teenage boys) needed. Plenty to do and plenty of space for everyone.

Perfect Home in the Woods
The hosts assisted with any questions, and were so sweet to get rain ponchos during our stay so we can enjoy the trails in the rainy weather. The house is beautiful and has everything you need and more.

Amazing location!
Our 4 night stay was great! The house had everything we needed for our stay, and then some. Games, ping pong in the garage, Keurig upstairs, and so much more. Plenty of room for our family of 5. Communication with the hosts was perfect. They were available, but not intrusive.But the best thing of all is the location. Redwood trees in the front yard! The Smith River amazing, and in the summer would be even better I'm sure. Close to so many trails and Crescent City. Yet out of the way enough to feel like you staying in the middle of the Redwoods!

Spring Break getaway
Rene has a wonderful home. The house was fully stock with entertaining activities (indoor and outdoor). Gas BBQ grill was perfect for me to grill up some steaks, and if it wasn't so cold at night we would have made smores that Rene prepared too. And if you like coffee like my wife and I do, well this place has you covered. the master bedroom had a coffee maker so you can enjoy a fresh cup of coffee in the morning out on the balcony without going down to the kitchen and back up to the room. And in the kitchen, you can use their drip coffee machine or k-cup machine. The kitchen was well lite and had so much space to prep, cook and clean a meal. The front yard has so much space that I both my kids were able to run around and enjoy the beautiful environment. We played cornhole, Ladder toss, frisbee and even had room to long toss a baseball. Rene was a great host.

Although new to Vrbo hosting, we have been hosting friends and family for decades in the Pacific Northwest. When you live in paradise, you get a lot of visitors! Our home is also in the redwood forest ON the Wild and Scenic Smith River just down river from our vacation home. Guests who stay at our home say the same thing: this place is special!
We love to share tips on hiking, kayaking and just enjoying this serene and beautiful spot in the Redwood National and State Parks.
Our summer is spent on the river! Swimming. Kayaking. Floating. In fact, if YOU float or kayak downstream, you may see us with our two German Shepherds out on the water. It's an everyday event for us. We love it here and hope you will as well.

Private Getaway in the redwoods! Located in a quiet neighborhood of only 5 homes with a private access trail to a sandy beach which only a handful of neighbors use.
You are literally IN the redwoods ON the river.
Exactly 1 mile to Jedediah Smith Redwood State Park and the Hiouchi Visitor Center. And the three greatest trails in the Redwood Park are just across the river! Grove of Titans (new) Boy Scout Trail Stout Grove And if the majestic towering redwoods and pristine Smith River aren't enough, take a 12 minute drive to Crescent City and head to the beach. Pebble Beach and South Beach are two of the favorites, with free parking and easy access.
Golfing? Del Norte Golf Course in in Hiouchi, just 4 miles away.
Gaming? Elk Valley Casino (with live Roosevelt Elk on the property) is in Crescent City, CA Lucky 7 Casino is nearby in Smith River, CA.
この宿泊施設の特徴
Can't say it enough. Redwoods On The River is just that. Rustic Luxury IN the redwoods and ON the bank of the Wild and Scenic Smith River.
What makes this property so special? Besides the redwood trees in the front and back yard and incredible view of the Smith River...guests have access to a private trail that leads to a sandy beach on the river. Most of the banks are rocky, so this sandy beach is a treat. And, best of all, only accessible to a handful of our neighbors and YOU!
We LOVE the river life and hope you will, as well. We provide kayaks, paddles, life vests, picnic basket, beach towels and toys and even a floatie or two for chilling.
When people ask, "How far are you from the Redwood National and State Park?" It's exciting to respond, "We're almost IN it!"
One mile from the entrance to the famous Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park. One mile from the Hiouchi Ranger and Visitor Center. Across the river from 3 of the best hiking trails! Grove of Titans (new) Stout Grove and The Boy Scout Trail.
If you are new to our neck of the woods, reach out after booking. Host Rene' or Thom will be happy to share tips for your visit.
