About this cabin rental

Willowhaven is a beautifully crafted redwood home on a generous lot dotted with fruit trees. An expansive wraparound deck encapsulates seven glorious redwood trees and bends around even more. With a mixture of shade and bright light, it’s the perfect setting for a romantic getaway or to simply recharge your batteries. In fair weather, BBQ, dine outside, slumber in the hammock, or stargaze. When it rains, luxuriate in the hot tub or listen to the storm from the cozy interior. High ceilings and abundant windows make all type of weather lovely at Willowhaven. A redwood “cathedral” surrounds the hot tub and up-lights show off the beauty of our trees.

Inside, the master bedroom features a King-size bed with adjusting frame. Lift or lower the back or foot sections of the bed separately and settle in to watch TV or snuggle while the wood burning stove warms the room. Both full bathrooms are substantial – making this a great home to visit as a couple, with friends, or a small family. The fully stocked kitchen and many places to dine, inside and out, ensure you have room to prepare gourmet meals with local produce and wines.

You’re minutes from the coast, Armstrong Woods State Park, Northwood Golf Course, and the Russian River. Quaint shops, casual and fine dining, and world (and locally) famous wineries are within a short drive.

Comfortable bed, hot showers, clean hot tub, and gas stove for preparing delicious meals were our favorite amenities and the space was comfortable for just the two of us and our 5 dogs. We would consider staying here again when the average temperatures are below 80 because the lack of air conditioning and screen doors made for an uncomfortable first nights sleep. However, we went and bought a fan to cook and sleep comfortably the remainder of our 5 day stay. This properly has so much potential and would greatly benefit from installing a mini split system, some hardscape/landscaping in the backyard, a gate to enclose the front entry, and some updating, but the style is typical for the area and it was clean and quiet during our stay with a generous yard for the dogs to play. If you love to travel, and adventure with your dogs, this place is a great option.

This is a very unique property for sure. however, upon entering the home the first thing you see is a dirty rug. I understand It's pet friendly home, but there are stains all over the carpets everwhere. I didn't want to take my shoes off. couch was also dirty. everything else was beautiful. If this problem was corrected it would be lovely place to stay.

This cabin, Willohaven was over the top. One of the nicest places that I have rented and I was so happy with it. Those huge redwoods surrounding the hot tub was beautiful. If you ever start I. The Monte Rio area, stay here, you will not regret it.

This house was perfect for my son and me. The location was perfect in almost every way- walking distance to a nice beach on the river and walking distance (for us) to everything else in Monte Rio. I walked our dog several miles everyday through the neighborhood and out along the river and Dutch creek. This is a great house if you are traveling with a dog. The fenced yard is huge. The deck is not gated, but our dog is not a wanderer so that wasn’t an issue for us. The only drawbacks were looking out at the neighboring houses which are in need of some TLC and the neighbors across the street who had ongoing arguments. But the beautiful redwoods and house more than made up for those annoyances. We would definitely stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay at Willowhaven. It's close to a great river spot to swim in with our kids. We tried a spot in Guerneville, but it was only for camp guests, while this was for the community and great during the week with fewer locals or tourists. The hot tub is phenomenal. Really sells the place. Good for a family of 4 or a couple.
