This is our second stay in this wonderful home. The only home we’ve returned to in the many many years we have rented and a home I would rent every year I visit my son in San Francisco. The kitchen has everything you need. The area is so peaceful and the openness of the house is refreshing. Excellent home on the Russian river.

Amazing property!

This place has everything you could ever ask for. An amazing location on the river with dock and watercraft. We certainly over packed because the kitchen is fully stocked, even with spices and every appliance. There is plenty to do with outdoor activities and indoor entertainment.

A lovely location

We were there over Thanksgiving. It was very peaceful and the house was more than spacious. The deck is huge and provided great view of the Russian River. And the fact that there were no other houses on the other side provided even more serenity. A very good experienc.

Best Stay on the River

Everything about this property was amazing. You cannot best waking up just overlooking the river. The dock made it so easy to just hop in as we wanted and avoid crowds at the beaches. The yard was amazing for lawn games and the dogs. The beds were super comfortable and the kitchen was great for preparing meals every day. Already plan on booking again next summer.
