About this house rental


Book this top-notch riverfront home for your next escape. Ideally located just beyond the
wind and fog belt of the coast yet before the inland heat. You will love this retreat spot with sun and shade on multiple outdoor living areas. We've just finished an overhaul on the retreat. New paint in and out, detailed and hand rubbed Tung oil into exposed beam ceilings along with many other improvements. The home has never looked or felt better! We've thought of everything to make your stay a pleasure and continuously upgrade our amenities. Enjoy the Weber propane BBQ grill, with a full backup tank always under the deck. Just one mile from Monte Rio, you'll be in the heart of all the fun. After a day of exploring, touring, or relaxing by the beautiful river, return to the comfort and amenities of home. Pictures can't capture the stunning setting, and spirit of this land.

This area showcases the best of northern California, with breathtaking coastal bluffs, beaches, wineries, distinctive restaurants, unique shops, spas, the river, and incredible state parks all nearby and convenient. It’s the perfect getaway from the city. We offer early check-in or late check-out upon request for no additional fee, when available.

Thoughtfully designed, well-equipped, and full of character, this vacation home will capture your heart. Our guests all agree. The well-appointed kitchen features granite counters and all the spices, cookware, wine glasses, and matching place settings you need. An open floor plan with beautiful bamboo floors, exposed wood beam ceilings, and a glass wall overlooking the river creates a delightful gathering spot. Enjoy a fire with the wood we provide for the wood stove. We also offer wireless DSL high-speed internet. Our idyllic micro-climate provides moderate temperatures in both summer and winter, keeping us close enough to the coast for nature’s moderating effect yet inland enough to avoid the fog and cold winds.

Imagine lounging on the redwood deck, soaking in the hot tub while watching life float by on the river and the birds gliding above. Read a book or cuddle next to the wood-burning stove. Nestled among giant Redwoods and overlooking the beautiful Russian River, you can meander down to the lower tier and private floating dock—a favorite fishing spot for otters, ospreys, and great blue herons among other wildlife.

The peaceful Russian River is clear, cool, and inviting. A canoe, two kayaks, and life vests are provided for you to explore this natural wonderland. A gorgeous ten-minute drive along the Russian River towards the coast brings you to Jenner and River’s End, where you can experience the best of California at nearby sightseeing attractions, charming towns, and beautiful parks. In the summer, the river is a popular swimming and festival spot for San Franciscans. In the winter, the Pacific keeps the climate mild, perfect for whale watching.

This is California's premier wine country, with many top vineyard tours in close proximity. You may want to move here once you visit. We provide a map of stunning, lesser-known scenic drives to the coast, where you can walk the beaches with sea lions, watch for whales, or surf. The landmark Sonoma Coast State Park and Goat Rock are at the mouth of the river, where you can walk the beach and visit the sea lions that usually lounge where the Russian River meets the Pacific Ocean.

We were 4 adults. The view was fabulous we loved watching birds fly past huge window facing river and redwoods. The downsrairs a special treat. We were a couple and three singles so the privacy was appreciated the hot tub was very nice too. Wish the bbq was charcol but thats rare thse days. Big hit was the cliseness to our favorite beach at Patterson point. Only drawback was not easily accessible but Chris the manager was very responsive and was willing to come and fix the situation.. We will be back.btw we have rented at leased 8 other housed ovrr the years at the River and this was our favorite. was as

This is a well appointed & located house good for adults and older children. The lower level is functional but lack of lower level outside lighting makes it challenging to navigate at night. The hot tub is a big benefit and was well used.

Although the house was nicely located, there was no mention in the description (4 BR 3 BA) that half of the property and one bath were located on a lower level with NO inside access. It rained several days, and the two families of children had to stay downstairs in order to give the rest of the adults private bedrooms This meant the four children 1 to 7 years (and mothers, of course) had to wear rain gear just to come upstairs to join the rest and to eat meals. Had we known it would have been a deal breaker. Also the downstairs space was divided into two sleeping areas by a curtain -- not great with babies who didn't sleep well and kept the others awake. The pictures didn't reveal the size of the upstairs, which was rather tight for our large group. We rented the property to do crafting: sewing, painting, games. Last, but not least, the lighting wasn't sufficient for crafting or reading in the living area so we huddled around the dining table. Unfortunately the house didn't serve our purposes well at all.

Beautiful setting - mornings were especially enjoyable with fog in the trees and over the river. Great location with easy access to all the conveniences of home but packaged in small town character. The house is very comfortable and fully stocked with everything needed. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful spot on the river surrounded by towering Redwoods. In the morning the stillness punctuated only by birdsong was mesmerizing. We saw both otters and a seal swimming upriver from the living room! House is comfy, spacious, provides all the amenities for a getaway with family or friends. Close to Monte Rio, Duncan Mills, and Jenner. Great location for experiencing both the woods and the ocean. Dock with boats made it easy to explore the river. Highly recommended.
