About this property

Celia's Garden is a joyful sanctuary - custom built in 2018 just two blocks from downtown Graton and the exquisite restaurants and wine tasting rooms exemplifying West Sonoma County. Happily perched above the Joe Rodota Trail (a locally loved bike and walking trail), families will especially enjoy trekking between small towns, farm stands and parks. This sunny and welcoming property is your home away from home - with an open and well-stocked kitchen, dining and living area is comfortable for entertaining and escaping from city distractions. A playful retreat to open your senses - eclectic books & DVDs, fanciful records, and kid-friendly activities fill the bookcases and drawers.

Step out to the native plant and pollinator-inspired garden with a BBQ just outside the kitchen door and pick herbs to brighten a meal. Freshly planted olive and citrus trees will shade future generations as current guests linger in the hot tub just steps from the master suite. Fragrant creeping thyme grows between the flagstones…

Curated with love, guests are invited to rest and heal, invigorate and embrace.

Know Before You Book:

Maximum Occupancy and Quiet Hours:
The maximum occupancy at Celia's Garden is 6 people. Quiet hours are from 10:00 pm until 7:00 am. Outdoor amplified sound is prohibited at any time.

Parking: There is parking for one car in the carport behind the house. Two or three cars can park in front of the house by the fence on Ross Road. Please do not park on the street in front of the car port. This can inadvertently block the neighbor from entering and exiting his garage.
RVs, trailers and campers are prohibited, per the Sonoma County Vacation Rental Ordinance

Bed Sizes:
Master Suite: Casper Queen bed; second bedroom: Casper Queen bed; Living room: queen sleeper sofa.

Heat Source:
Radiant floor heat warms your toes first and the whole house with ease.

A/C:
The house does not have air conditioning. Being near the coast, the night time temps drop and just opening some windows is usually enough to cool the house.

Stairs:
The main door to the house is on the same level as the carport, but there's a gentle slope to the property, so other doors and decks have several steps. Inside the house is all one level.

Fencing:
The yard is mostly fenced with plans for additional fencing down the road

About the TV: No cable. Streaming services including Hulu, Disney+, ESPN+. Bring your own logins for other streaming services.

Property Updates:
Quite a bit of fantastic work has been done in the garden since these photos were taken! There is now a fence along the back of the property adding privacy for the hot tub area. A flagstone patio wraps around the hot tub to the concrete patio and outdoor dining. An abundance of native and pollinator plants are filling in and more are on the way! We're excited to take new photos as the yard fills in and grows!

Proximity to Wineries:
The nearest tasting rooms are on the main street of Graton just a couple block walk from the house.

Nearest River Beach:
Steelhead Beach is 5.5 miles from the house.

Nearest Ocean Beach:
Doran Beach is 16.5 miles from the house.

Wonderful home and great location

Loved the design of this home. Two separate bedrooms, two bathrooms, open concept with functional kitchen that flows into the living area. Trails near by and fun shops in town. A number of local restaurants to choose from also.

Cozy, comfortable, and a great vibe.

Celia's garden was a beautiful, peaceful property, just as described. We really enjoyed the hot tub, my dog enjoyed the fenced-in yard, and we loved hanging out in the comfortable living room. Maybe the best thing about the house was the location -- walkable to the cute little village main street with a few great restaurants and a little bodega. We didn't cook, but the kitchen looked very well-supplied. I especially appreciated the thoughtful touches like dog bowls (and dog poop bags!) and the guide to the neighborhood. One thing to note -- our dog is a bit larger, but if you have a small dog there are some little spaces in the fence that a small dog might be able to sneak through.

About the host

Hosted by Russian River Vacation Homes

We are Russian River Vacation Homes, a part of D&G Equity Management, Inc., a family owned and locally owned/operated property management company.

Our Story:
In 1980, D&G founders and owners Michael and Patty saw a need in the area for habitable, affordable housing. At that time, many of the little cabins along the Russian River, originally built as summer cabins, were unsuitable for year-round occupancy. D&G assisted property owners with fixing up and renting their cabins. As the largest property management company in western Sonoma County, D&G Equity Management continues to be a staple in the Russian River community.

Russian River Vacation Homes is an off-shoot of D&G. One fine day in 1985, Michael's client, Bob, asked "Hey Mike, can you rent my cabin out just for the week or weekend instead of by the month?" Michael said "Sure!" and Russian River Vacation Homes was born. As renting vacation rentals became more popular, Russian River Vacation Homes grew into a full-time business with its own office. Today, Russian River Vacation Homes professionally manages over 60 high-quality vacation rentals.

We strive to make each and every stay the best one ever. If you have any questions or concerns about reserving or staying with us, please don't hesitate to contact us! We are here to help.

What makes this property unique

We can't say enough good things about Celia's Garden. The location, the space and the decor are all welcoming and bright. Newly constructed in 2018, the space is a darling blend of modern and country cottage chic. What we love: the open living areas, the new kitchen and bathrooms, the comfortable Casper mattresses on both beds, the landscaped entryway and being walking distance to downtown Graton.
