Thank you Shauna for sharing your home. We did a party to celebrate my sister. We had lots of plans to go into town and hangout but we stayed and enjoyed the house 95% of the time

We had a wonderful stay. We planned to explore the area more and the house is in such a great location to do so, but the backyard and pool were so pleasant we barely left. Nice and spacious home that was perfect for our group.

My friends and I had the BEST weekend in Guerneville. The house is beautiful and has everything you need. The location is perfect - close to Armstrong park access, the river and downtown. We absolutely loved it!

We had five relaxing days for family fun enjoyed the weather and the location
The house was great. The only problem we encountered was the range only had one working burner other than that it was fabulous.

My family enjoyed our stay here. The house is lovely. We came at the end of a week-long heat wave, so we thought the unheated pool would be a bit warmer, but at least it was refreshing that day. Once the heat wave ended, the pool wasn't so inviting, which was too bad, since that is what we'd planned on doing. The AC units throughout the place worked well, and once the heat wave ended, we just turned them off and opened windows in the late afternoon, and it was perfect. We had a few walks/hikes in Armstrong Redwood Park, just a mile up the road. The house was decorated very nicely, and it had everything we needed. Very comfortable.

Our family (5 adults, 4 kids ages 2-4) stayed here for a week and were so pleased. The space is great for multiple families. The neighborhood is quiet and lovely. The pool, hot tub, fire pit, backyard, and indoor spaces have us so many great options to hangout. The location was also a fabulous jumping off point to explore the area and close to many wonderful spots for hiking, swimming, and eating!

This property is a wonderful place to stay in Sonoma County. It is spacious and beautifully decorated, with many thoughtful touches including fresh flowers on the table. The backyard is an incredibly welcoming space. Once back there, it is hard to leave, even though Sonoma County offers so many things to do. The location in Guerneville is perfect for getting to the redwoods, the coast and many wineries. It is only about a 25 minute drive through beautiful countryside to charming Healdsburg. I also can’t say enough good things about the host and her communication with us. Every email and question was answered graciously and within minutes. I highly recommend this house for a stay in Sonoma County!

We had an amazing stay at the retreat with a small group of friends! House is beautiful, located in the middle of the redwoods, and a short drive/long walk to Downtown Guerneville. We'd absolutely stay there again!

My family and I had a lovely Thanksgiving holiday at this home. The home was very clean, the kitchen had everything we needed to cook, the backyard was expansive and fenced in so my dog could enjoy. We hiked Armstrong park two days in a row. Smart Pizza downtown was an awesome dinner one night. 100% would stay here again. The host is so incredibly responsive, and even left breakfast pastry for us in the fridge upon checkin! Thank you!

What a beautiful home, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating, tables and places to gather and enjoy! The hot tub was fabulous, with a quick cold plunge in the pool. We enjoyed the local hiking area just down the street and the well stocked kitchen was perfect for our chefs in the kitchen. I’d highly recommend the house!

This home was perfect for our family get together. Plenty of space for everyone inside, but we basically spent all our time outdoors, enjoying the pool and hot in, stargazing at the fire pit, and relaxing in the beautiful weather. This spot had everything we needed to cook larger meals at home.

This location provided our group of mom friends a wonderful location for a getaway. Extremely comfortable beds, and furniture. Well thought out kitchen. Pool was invigorating, and a nice complement to the hot tub. We didn't even explore the area, just relaxed, cooked, and unplugged. Power in the area went out one morning, but the neighbors filled us in on what was going on. Communicating with Shauna was very easy and her prompt replies were comforting.

The house was perfect!! House is located on a quiet street, has a HUGE yard, awesome swimming pool and hot tub. We spent our time in the pool during day and our evenings were spent in the hot tub stargazing. The living room was VERY spacious, bed was very comfy and clean, kitchen well stocked. The host was very easy to get a hold of and always responded within minutes. It was a PERFECT getaway! We will be back.

We loved this home so much and it was the perfect Russian River stay for our family. The home basically has two wings and all of the bedrooms are very cozy, an amazing private backyard that is so welcoming, and is located close to town/beaches. We would definitely stay at this home again!

Such a beautiful place inside and outside. We had a wonderful time using the pool hotub bbq fire pit …. Rooms set up nice and lots of room.

We had a great stay and the location was fantastic--literally four minutes to Armstrong State Park and the Redwood forest, three minutes to Guerneville where you can find fun shopping, a well-stocked and large Safeway store, 25 minutes from the coast, and close to so many Russian River beaches and wineries. It felt like we were in the center of it all.
The house was incredibly clean and the outdoor area was perfect. Super clean hot tub which we made use of every night (who knew how chilly it gets in August at night). The pool was a bit chilly because it was unheated, but felt good after a day of hiking.
We were a group of a family of three and a family of four so having the kids separated in their own attached "apartment" was perfect.
Honestly, the only thing that was disappointing was we only had three days to be there. I would have liked at least a couple more to enjoy the house and the area!

Everything about this property is meant to entertain. I recently hosted a bachelorette party with 9 women. There was plenty of room and plenty of beds for everyone. The kitchen was perfect for cooking big meals and had everything we could have possibly asked for. We spent the entirety of Saturday outside poolside. Shauna was extremely responsive when we had shower issues and the problem was solved in less than an hour! We will definitely be back!

Our third year staying here in early August. The house is great and Shauna is super responsive. We are definitely staying here again.

Overall a wonderful place to stay. Super close to the river and town, yet still felt private. It had everything you could want for backyard lounging and a well stocked kitchen which was perfect for my gourmet level cooking friends. We would stay again in a heartbeat!

This is the perfect getaway location in Russian River Valley and the Guerneville area! Plenty of space for our group of 6 adults, the pool and spa were fantastic to relax and unwind. Worth every penny, can't wait to return!

This is a charming little home that was well stocked and very clean. The beds were comfortable and the outdoor space perfect. The pool was ideal for our almost seven year old and there were ample pool toys to keep him entertained. We had a wonderful, comfortable stay and would definitely like to return one day.

Shauna was a great host and responded right away for any concern we had. We love to cook and made all our meals in the well equipped kitchen.
The upstairs (2 bedrooms and kitchenet) worked well for
my daughter's family with 2 teenage kids.
The other 2 bedrooms were great for me and my husband and my daughter with 2 young children (5 and 2). All the beds were very comfortable.
Pool was nice but on the cool side in June. Lots of pool toys.
Very close to Armstrong Redwood Forest. This is definitely a place we would like to stay again.

Our family group of 6 enjoyed very much our stay in this attractive, updated house. The backyard was beautiful and secluded with lots of comfortable seating as well as a nice pool, hot tub, and grill. Although the pool water was still quite cool in early June, that didn't prevent the kids from enjoying it! The house is very well stocked with dishes, cookware, and other amenities, and the beds were very comfortable. We loved its open-to-nature, large back windows. It is really a lovely place to stay!

Perfect accommodations to celebrate our granddaughters graduation from Sonoma State University. Shopping and restaurants were nearby. Only suggestion would be tissues and hand towels on site but that was just a minor inconvenience. Backyard is an entertainer’s delight with a pool, hot tub, fire pit, and room for corn hole!

I visited this vrbo with a group of girlfriends and we had so much fun! What a wonderful experience. Shauna was so helpful and resolved any issues right away. Would love to come back again soon!

We had a great experience staying at the house. Lots of space for our 2 families of teens, kids, and parents. The kids loved having their own part of the house and the parents enjoyed the very comfortable king beds downstairs.
Even though we visited during the winter (it rained the whole time), we enjoyed our time inside the house. It was clean, with everything we needed: the kitchen is well stocked and the living room has comfortable furniture, board games, and is set up to watch movies. The fireplace in the living room was very warm and the hot tub was large and clean.
The garden is nicely maintained and is surrounded by large trees. The pool seemed fun!
The manager was very responsive and welcoming. We didn’t have much signal, so the strong internet bandwidth house was very useful.
Would love to stay there again!

The house worked well for us to be able to spread out - with 3 generations of family together that was fantastic. Shauna was super quick to respond and very helpful during our stay. The pool and hot tub were hits, and the yard was great for our 2 small dogs.
5.0
The outside seating areas were extraordinary, large windows looking out to beautiful yard in the back, the decor was very nice, and the host included many amenities so if we forgot to pack something it was there. The table was set and fresh flowers throughout the house. Outdoor grill in perfect condition. Our stay was very comfortable.
