Great neighborhood redwoods. Convenient, clean, spacious, living room big TV and a smaller one in one of the bedrooms. Very comfortable king size bed in one of the bedrooms.
The host was very responsive and asked if there was anything we needed throughout our stay. The neighborhood is also very quiet and pleasant. The jacuzzi was a huge hit and really helped us relax. It’s also located in a cute area next to a few restaurants and next to the Russian River.
We had a wonderful stay! Everything was perfect. The house was clean and well stocked. Had everything we needed. Loved the hot tub!!! Surrounded by beautiful, natural forest. Within a few minutes of the river. Very peaceful and private.

About the host
Hosted by Dan Gudino
Hi, I’m Bernadette — and nothing makes me happier than creating beautiful, welcoming spaces where people can relax, recharge, and make lasting memories. Hosting has been a meaningful part of my journey for years now, and I approach every guest stay with the same care and attention I’d give to someone I genuinely want to feel welcome, comfortable, and at ease.
I’ve always believed that comfort lives in the details — a thoughtful space that feels both calming and inspiring. My passion lies in curating those kinds of experiences, where everything you need is right at your fingertips, and you can just settle in and feel at ease.
Outside of hosting, I love anything that sparks creativity — from design and travel to food and meaningful conversations. Whether you're staying for a quiet getaway or an extended visit, I’m here to make sure everything goes smoothly and that your time is both restful and enjoyable.
I’d love to welcome you — and I hope your stay brings all the comfort and joy you’re looking for.

It’s a place where relaxation meets exploration, making it ideal for a memorable getaway.
