About this property

Riverview ~ Riverfront MCM Gem. A favorite for Family Holidays! Woof

Riverview is a well-cared-for spacious family home located right on the edge of the redwood-lined Russian River. The views are spectacular from most rooms and the deck. The living is easy and relaxed with nothing but nature's beauty at its very best.

Guests can spread out between four bedrooms (two at each end of the house), large living and dining room, kitchen with breakfast nook and recreation room downstairs. The living room immediately invites relaxation with amazing views through the wall-to-wall windows, flat screen smart TV, games and sliding doors to the deck. Just step through the doors from the kitchen to the deck to BBQ-ing while watching the river go by.

Know Before You Book:

On the west side of the house, enjoy the master bedroom with a king bed, sitting area and view of the river; guest bedroom with a king bed overlooking the front courtyard; full bathroom with tub, separate shower stall and view of the river off the hallway. The east side of the house offers 2 newly remodeled guest bedrooms, one with a queen bed and one with 2 twin beds; newly remodeled full bathroom with shower/bathtub combo; a full kitchen, breakfast nook, half bath and laundry room round out the eastern end of the house.

A large private dock is accessed from the terraced backyard. During the summer months, the river is dammed, allowing for swimming and paddling in calm waters. A 3-person canoe and a 1-person kayak, plus 2 kid's kayaks, with life vests, are available when summer dams are in (typically June 15th thru September 30th, or as determined by Russian River Parks & Recreation Department), weather and water levels permitting.

In addition to the large back deck and terraced yard facing the river, the front yard is fully fenced and serves as a shady courtyard patio. A large lemon tree shares fruit year round.

For star gazers, there’s a telescope and binoculars for bird and deer watching. A wood burning fireplace and central heat keep you cozy in the colder months.

The house is conveniently located a 15-minute walk (0.7 miles) to downtown Guerneville, which offers several selections of restaurants, bistros, bars, coffee shops, and Johnson’s Beach. Jump in the car – it’s just a 7-minute drive to the famous Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve to hike and picnic among the giant redwoods, 4 minutes to Korbel Winery and their yummy deli and 8 minutes to Porter-Bass Winery. Golfers, Northwood Golf Course is a 9 minute drive. So much, so close!

Security Cameras: For the safety of guests and the home, there is an exterior camera off the back deck, facing the river.

Summer Rotation Day: Thursday
During the Peak Season, which runs from the end of June through August, Riverview has a 7 night minimum and rents on a Thursday to Thursday pattern. If you make an online reservation outside of this rotation day requirement, we may contact you about altering your dates.

Heat: Central heating and woodstove. Firewood and kindling are not provided.

Rec/Game Room: The game room is an unheated, uninsulated space. Temperature varies throughout the year.

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.

Great Cabin on the River
We loved our stay on the Russian River. The house was very spacious for 7 women, beds were comfortable and the deck was perfect. The house was clean, well stocked in the kitchen and lots of towels (beach & bath). The basement was full of floaties which was great since it was a very warm weekend. The kitchen is a bit small and dated but reminded us of a rustic cabin. Parking is limited but worked for us with 3 cars.

Favorite river house to date.
We do a yearly friends trip to the RR, and this was our favorite spot yet. Everything was easy about checking in and out. The management company is friendly and helpful. The biggest selling point for us was the large dock and river toys. We hope to return next year.

This rental is one of the best on the river, works well for families but not elderly, lots of stairs to the dock , the beds are super comfortable and the kitchen has everything you need to make ANY meal , big frig and freezer, lots of river toys and floats , we only dined out once in town at Dawn Ranch for our 5 day stay , I’ll be back as soon as I can , no need to go to Tahoe anymore

About the host

Hosted by Russian River Vacation Homes

Host profile image
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.
