This place was perfect for our family vacation! We played games and did puzzles, BBQed and relaxed in the hot tub, swam and kyaked in the river, and hiked in Armstrong Woods and went out to the bars in Rio Nio and downtown Guerneville. It was all so fun and being together as a family!

Great seeing your photos of your time spent with us at Paradise house! From the looks of it, you took in all we have to offer both at the home itself, and while visiting Guerneville. I love the image of the little girl admiring the root structure in Armstrong Woods state reserve, I have photos of my girls doing the exact same thing. And thank you for leaving the citronella candles for us. Please come again!

Thank you for your !10/10 review of your recent stay at Paradise! Being situated above the summer dam allows for slower moving and deeper water levels than those below us in high season (late June - late August). The property owner enjoys a long week each July at Paradise with much of that time spent either on the water or in the hot tub, thus extending her enthusiasm in both of the aspects. We hope you will return again.

The Paradise house was a wonderful place to spend the week with my family. Beautiful views from every window, lovely inside and wonderful patios and a riverside deck outside, with paddle boards and kayaks to boot! The host was very helpful and communicative. We would definitely stay here again. My only comment is to be aware that the bathroom in the master bedroom is "open concept." I have seen this in hotels and some other houses and I'm not sure I fully understand the thinking behind it. But overall, I highly recommend Paradise.

Thank you for choosing to spend some of your summertime with us a Paradise. We appreciate your compliments regarding the home and your experience with management; we strive to offer the kind of vacation experience that we would like to have ourselves, and we enjoy doing so! You are correct that the bathroom in the primary bedroom can be described as open concept, and while we do mention this in our property description, and on our photo library, it does surprise people from time to time. We look forward to your next stay with us.

The only thing that needs to improvement are the stairs going to the river. My sister fell and hurt her legs on the sharp steps going to the river.. .A rail would help.

About the host

Hosted by Naomi Smith

Host profile image
After years of working in the short-term rental market and managing multiple departments, I took a leap of faith, earned my Sonoma County Property Manager certificate, and began managing properties independently in 2021.

As a lifelong resident of the Russian River area, I truly enjoy hosting visitors and sharing this region with them. My goal is for every guest to leave with a smile and the desire to return for another stay.

Why they chose this property

Managing a riverfront property in Guerneville allows me the excuse to take a break along the river banks each time I visit Paradise. Guests love the location for its' unobstructed views of the Russian River, its seasonal river access, 2 single kayaks, and of course, the hot tub.

What makes this property unique

This home is located just far enough out of town to feel removed from the local activities, yet close enough to enjoy a short walk for lunch, ice cream, or an early dinner.

Situated less than a five-minute drive from Guerneville, the property is perfectly positioned along the riverbank for easy access to all the area's recreation. The home features modern furnishings and an open floor plan, and is professionally cleaned between every stay.
