Nice quiet cabin on the river. Spent a birthday weekend exploring and relaxing in the river area. Quiet, clean and well stocked. Will definitely reserve again.

A bit run down on furniture, bedding, mattresses and kitchen utensils. Just had salt, pepper and coffee, vegetable oil. No basics including any plastic bags, tin foil etc.

We stayed for 4 nights in mid-September. It's a perfect location to get to the coast to kayak or more into wine country.
Beautiful location, the house is surrounded by the tallest redwoods, and their Large back Deck overlooks the river, and the fog rolling in off the mountains in the morning is so calming and to be able to see the stars at night.
The house itself is well-appointed and the living room was cozy. It has a nice open layout. While the house feels very private, there are no window coverings in the main kitchen/living room area, I was a bit freaked out because I watch too many horror films, :). But it was fine. just FYI
The house itself is on a shallower part of the river if that matters to someone. One other thing of note is the wooden stairs down to the river/canoe. Be careful, not the best.
We were able to use their outdoor outlet to charge our car. which is also one of the main reasons we chose this home.

The cottage was delightful! Very clean and well stocked with cooking supplies. The beds were comfortable. Instructions for using the property well layed out and clear. Loved the area and would definately return to this Redwood Butterfly retreat! Only downside was the river was very low and the beach had toxic algae warnings, so water play was sadly not part of the experience.

We had a great time here in July. The place is surrounded by redwood trees, beautiful and peaceful. The neighborhood is very quiet. Very easy water access for us and our dog. The house is super clean, has everything we need, and even has washer & dryer, which is a huge plus. We would love to stay here again!

This family of 4 had a relaxing time amongst the forest and view of the river!

Quiet space under the redwoods backs up to the Russian River. The house was perfect for our family of 5 (3 young kids 2 adults) Large bathroom with a spacious shower, comfortable beds, laundry. The house backs up to the river and it is just a short walk down to the water and a beautiful secret garden of black berries, mint, yellow flowers, bees, frogs, deer and quail then a wonderful Rocky beach with 2-4ft water at the end of summer perfect for young kids to splash and play. We had the most wonderful time great memories forever!

We stayed three nights as a party of three adults and three kids between the ages of 6 and 9. The adults slept in the cozy bedrooms and there was plenty of couch space for the three kids in the living room in sleeping bags. The whole house is beautifully updated and sparkling clean, and the kitchen was perfect for preparing meals. We enjoyed eating on the balcony and playing board games in the living room when we weren’t relaxing at the river or paddling around in the canoe. The river floats and other amenities provided were icing on the cake. Everyone had an amazing time, the kids never once missed their iPads, and we will 100% be back! Thank you for sharing your beautiful retreat with us.

Our lil family of 3 (2 adults+10yr boy+dog) absolutely enjoyed staying here. Our son enjoyed at night playing on his Oculus using the Internet. And as a family, we did a short 5 min walk across the island to get to the deeper waters and had fun playing in the river! Afterwards, it was really nice to have a hot shower, wash our clothes/dry, eat dinner on the table with the fireplace going and end the evening with a nice glass of wine, relaxing on the balcony or just watching TV. Would like to mention just 2 precautions: #1 about the stairs leading down to the river, it is VERY VERY STEEP, so please hold on tight to the railing as you make your way down SLOWLY. #2 The outdoors fire pit has too much vegetation growing around it and some were dried up vegetation. We did not feel comfortable starting a fire in the ground level fire pit as it is not deep at all even though there is a garden hose at reach but that's just us (novice).

Great river house
We had a lovely time at the redwood butterfly. It has everything you need to enjoy the river and have peace and quiet. Very clean and the host Sally had great communication. Would stay here again.
4.7
Good Experience
Accommodations were very comfortable with modern kitchen, bathrooms, nice beds and TV with huge cable selections. Loss of 1 star for vegetation debris all along path to front door and rear deck. Also, treacherous footing/incline to reach stairs for access to river. Not safe for those with leg issues. Would stay, again, when in Monte Rio next time.
4.7
Beautiful house right on the river. The location was ideal and the deck was amazing. Fantastic little market a short walk away had everything we needed. Not 100% wheelchair accessible but we had brought some ramps and were able to make it work for our short stay.

House overlooking the Russian River, which runs past the back yard. Everything is as described. Dog friendly; although the back yard isn't fenced, there's a steep hill up to the street, so we could let the dogs off leash down there. The street is a little busy and has no sidewalk, though there are enough pedestrians that drivers know to watch for them.

Sally's place is spacious, clean and light. The kitchen is perfect if you plan on doing some cooking. It was cold and rainy while we were there and yet we were warm and comfy. Sally is easy to get ahold of. We will return!
Thanks for a great getaway!

Easy, comfortable, functional, clean, well stocked with almost everything needing.
Only a couple additions would have made this an ideal wheelchair accessible property: a ramp that met the height of the front door threshold and a handicapped height toilet. The possibility of arranging for other handicapped accessories would be icing on the cake.
All and all, I would most certainly stay again in a heartbeat.

Beautiful relaxing stay
We had a wonderful time and being right on the river was delightful. We explored Patterson Point Reserve right down the street and had a great time canoeing.

We would like to spend our last week of summer vacation playing/working away from home and felt like Russian River was a good place to go. We liked this rental. It was clean and comfortable and within a walking distance to some good eateries. We enjoyed roasting s’mores in the fire ring in the evening and cozying up around the vintage fireplace at night. The view from the balcony was very peaceful. The owner was very responsive to our questions.
One less star for the location on the river currently if you want to access the water from here. The canoe was here but the water was so low and stilled on this side of the island with lots of vegetation and algae. Also lots of cars driving by very fast on Moscow road. So if you stay here be careful walking around.

Nice with exceptions
The fireplace needs service... a simple durflame log smoked out the evening..
The black mold in the shower... does the house keeper actually clean or just charge you for the service
...
The kitchen sink that back up... the last three days we were there....
It was nice online. The initial walk in was nice until we got comfortable. The access to the river was not clear.
