We enjoyed a relaxing, comfortable weekend. Such a lovely home In a peaceful gorgeous setting. Wow wonderful place to stay!

Perfect getaway and base for exploring Russian River Valley vineyards; main challenge was finding the house the first time (great instructions) and dealing with spotty internet (typical of the entire surrounding area ... just needed to plan ahead; provided a great opportunity to "unplug" more than usual, talk more, and dig into a good book); we'll be back

My wife and I completely enjoyed our time in Forestville. Our hostess was very helpful and responsive to our questions. She provided excellent recommendations for wine tasting and places of interest to visit. We hope to return for a getaway soon.

We had an incredible stay. The house was incredibly well decorated and just quirky enough to make it extra special. Most importantly, the owner was really welcoming and made sure our time in Forestville was memorable. It felt like we were staying at a friend's house. Would 100% recommend.

A beautiful, quiet and peaceful home amongst the redwoods!!! We enjoyed sitting outside as we breathed in fresh pine air and listened to the silence with intermittent echoing chirps. This place is perfect to get away from the everyday world to relax and reset oneself. Everything in this rental from the location, décor, and of course Elizabeth & Mark’s gracious hospitality, only creates a fabulous experience. This was our first VRBO rental and will always be a cherished one.

This property is a gem—quiet and peaceful and near charming little towns. Cannot recommend highly enough!

This beautiful property is the perfect place to get away and decompress!

As advertised, on a great road for cycling and stocked with amenities! Peaceful, natural, close to world class restaurants. Attentive and professional owners. Thank you!

The cabin is a great place to completely unplug from the outside world and take a moment to truly relax. From the comfortable beds to the beautiful outdoor patio and spacious kitchen, this place is beautiful and perfect for when you need to take a moment away from everyday life and just breathe. Elizabeth is a wonderful host- attentive, helpful, and kind. I can't say enough great things about this place. I will definitely be back!

This is a very nice home/Canin, with a well appointed kitchen, which we loved so cooking was fun & stress free! Charming Wood stove & lively little creek with lovely gardens & grounds around the multiple patio/deck spaces. Nice linens, & well done upgrades & charm in the bed & bathrooms. Definitely worth the visit & close to fun wine tasting & great hiking/walks nearby!

Elizabeth, one of the owners (along with her husband), was a brilliant communicator, with precise details and so generous with sharing recommendations of nearby restaurants and activities. She was spot on with all of it! The cabin is pristine and has everything you need. The one thing the cabin does not have is cell service/internet/tv -- and this is one of the reasons we chose this property. We needed to have zero temptation to use devices -- and this is the place to do just that! They have a great sound system wired throughout the cabin, so listening to music was pure delight. They provide everything you need for building a fire indoors, or heated patios/decks for outdoor relaxing (it was too cold out for us to enjoy the outdoor space, but floor to ceiling windows in the cabin give you all the same spectacular views of the redwoods and thoughtful landscaping). I do recommend that you print up directions to a few of the spots you know you will visit (grocery store, Guerneville, etc) because you do not have any cell service at the cabin -- it takes quite a few miles to get any cell service (unless you have Verizon, there is better coverage apparently -- we had AT+T and had to drive quite a distance to get cell service). We had planned ahead and printed out multiple location directions - super helpful. BTW, there is a landline at the cabin you can use -- that gave us a sense of safety in case there was an emergency. We never used it, but was glad it was there. This was definitely one of our favorite vacations - super chill, and the location was fantastic as there is so much to do in the surrounding towns (hiking, kayaking, national parks, etc). If you truly want to completely unplug and relax, this cabin is for you!

Perfect place for a weekend away from everything. Close to coast and wineries. Quiet location.

A beautiful & peaceful retreat in the Sonoma redwoods. Everything you could wish for is provided & Elizabeth ensures that arrival & departure are easy. The outdoor living spaces will allow you to quickly forget the hustle & bustle of everyday. We hated to leave!

Great property. It’s open and private. Great place to unplug when not out enjoying wine country.

We absolutely loved this high end property. The owners attention to detail is impressive. No tv or internet which we loved so bring your favorite book. There was also an impressive art collection. We look forward to going back

The cabin was such a special place. Quiet, beautiful surroundings, thoughtful touches by the owners. It made for a perfect getaway and LOVED that it didn’t have TV, internet and cell service. Would definitely go back!

Lovely cabin in the redwoods. Beautifully decorated in a quiet setting.

Was a bit hesitant about no internet but I was pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed it. Elizabeth’s attention to details were amazing. She had fresh flowers throughout the house and supplied special treats for us like a bottle of wine and sweet goodies.

Everything was delightful, but the best part was how cool and quiet the cabin was. We had 2 very hot days but the cabin remained very comfortable.

This cabin is a beautiful, cozy, sparkling clean, home in the woods. The scenery surrounding the cabin is magical. It is peaceful and serene. The attention to detail by Elizabeth and Mark is so impressive. They are great hosts. The communication was excellent. We had no issues during our stay. We were happy to not have internet or cell service, as it makes for a much needed quiet break. We cannot wait to visit again.

The owners have put a lot thought and love into this property both inside and out. The decor is warm, inviting and tasteful. Large windows and french doors throughout the cabin afford beautiful views of the trees and landscaping and create a lovely indoor/outdoor connection. We appreciated the thorough communications of the hosts which made our arrival stress free. They provided several generous touches such a complimentary bottle of wine, sodas, coffee and ice cream. Pet owners should note that the property is not fenced in but it has a cable dog run.

We had a wonderful stay in the cabin. It was so welcoming, we could hardly tear ourselves away. Although we did manage a little local exploring, hiking in Armstrong Woods, and a fine dinner at Hazel in Occidental. The cabin is truly a gem in the woods. We enjoyed everything about it. The owners clearly have a great eye for interior design, as well as art. It has all been put together with such care and attention to detail. It was a pleasure to stay in a property with such a well-equipped chef’s kitchen. We had fun cooking there. So often in other places useful items such as a cheese grater or a bottle opener are nowhere to be found! It felt like we were staying at a friend’s house rather than in a rental property.

Amazing place, great host, incredibly equiped, impecable taste, pristine conditions. If you are undecided about booking Elizabeth’s sanctuary, ask yourself these questions: 1) are you looking to detox from electronics? 2) are you a foodie and love to cook? 3) do you enjoy drinking first class pinot noir by the fire? 4) are you ready to relax, unwind and recharge? 5) do you enjoy spending time with your partner and forget about time? 6) are you an art lover? 7) do you appreciate being pampered and feel like you are a personal guest in a rental? 8) are you ready to feel like a posh cabin owner for a few days? 9) do you appreciate nice educated and loving hosts? If you said no to the prior questions, don’t stay here. Otherwise, what are you waiting for? We are looking forward to our next visit!! Forever grateful for your hospitality.

This is a beautiful property that is cozy and classy. We loved the location, the very functional kitchen, the delightful seating arrangements, the fireplace, the great outdoor area, and the owner's attention to detail. The home is secluded yet close to everything! By far one of the best properties we have ever stayed in. Thank you Elizabeth !!

We loved our stay at Elizabeth’s Forestville cabin. There is no wifi or cell service, which only added to feel of being on a true retreat from normal stressors. The cabin is beautifully decorated with mid century furnishings and original artwork. It was also kid and dog friendly with a wide range of games and books available, as well as dog supplies to use. The hosts generously stocked the fridge/freezer with beer, soda, and ice cream (the good stuff too!) and provided a complimentary bottle of local wine. We hope to visit again soon!

Wonderful cabin in a beautiful location with everything you need to totally relax. Will be coming back for sure.

Hosts Elizabeth and Mark are the benchmark for great hosts. They communicated clearly and delivered an awesome, beautifully appointed hideaway in the redwoods. Quality linens and a "ready to cook" gourmet kitchen were exactly what we had hoped for. Patio heaters (not needed on this trip) and a cozy wood burning stove with fire ready wood/kindling were a treat. A very peaceful, thoroughly comfortable adventure in the woods.

What a beautiful cabin in such a relaxing setting. Elizabeth was very responsive and accommodating. High recommend and would happily stay here again!
