Surrounded by towering redwoods, Russian River vacation rentals are the perfect way to relax, unwind and reconnect with nature.

Sip your way through Sonoma County
Once known for its apple orchards, Sonoma County is now prime winemaking territory. It's famous for its Pinot Noir, with wineries like MacRostie spearheading the movement. Visitors swoon over its elegant sit-down tastings and gorgeous vineyard views. Founded by the legendary film director himself, Francis Ford Coppola Winery is one of Sonoma's more flamboyant vineyards. Why not ditch the car, stretch your legs and sign up for one of Sonoma's famous sip-and-cycle vineyard tours? For a glimpse of Sonoma's arts scene, head to Guerneville Bank Club. The restored bank is now used as a community retail, gallery and cafe space.
A summer haven
Summer is high season in Sonoma County, when locals descend on Russian River. Warm weather and long sunny days make summer ideal for swimming, fishing and winery hopping. Russian River vacation rentals are the ultimate way to cool down, with private docks and breezy waterfront views. Crowds peak over weekends, including Memorial Day, Labor Day and the Fourth of July. If you prefer less crowded tasting rooms, consider visiting in spring or fall, when Russian River enjoys clear skies and crisp temperatures.
Reel in trophy-sized trout
Flowing through Northern California, the Russian River is a haven for local wildlife. Keep an eye out for otters, osprey, turtles and great blue herons. The Russian River is also an important habitat for smallmouth bass, bluegill, catfish and huge steelhead trout. Don't forget to pick up a fishing license before casting a line. Peppered with over 15,000 acres of vineyards, the Russian River floodplain produces America's best Pinot Noirs. Thanks to fertile soil and a cool climate, the region's wines are bright, velvety and fruit-focused.
