The amenities were very welcoming and the location was great. When I called the agency they were always helpful. Loved the hot tub and the views of the trees out the bedroom windows. But I think they may need rotorooter.

Cozy getaway near Guerneville center
Nice and spacious home with warm fireplaces, perfect for the fall! The host was also very flexible and accommodated an extra day for my family. Our dogs enjoyed the stay as well and could play in the enclosed front yard. Thanks for a cozy vacation!

30 minutes to the ocean, 30 minutes to Healdsburg and Guerneville itself is a cool place to explore. Really a perfect home base to explore Sonoma County!

Cute little house on the hill!
The property management was friendly and helpful. The house was cute and well cared for. We had everything we needed there, fully stocked. Only suggestion, maybe a high chair would be helpful for future families, but otherwise, we had a great time with no complaints.

Lovely stay for adults and *older* children
Let's start with what we loved about the place. It's a great layout with 3 spacious bedrooms. The outdoor spaces are all really lovely, though because we were there in the heat of summer with a very handsy toddler, we preferred the back deck with the dining table on it to the cozy fire pit in the front. It was nice to be up in the trees a bit on the porch and it was generally very quiet. The hot tub was clean and well maintained. The bathrooms were clean. The kitchen was better stocked than most kitchens you'll find in vacation rentals. And we loved the game selection!
Here are the warnings. Access to the house is via a one-lane, windy, hilly road. It wasn't a big deal for us, except that it made us very intentional about coming and going, as it was always a bit of an adventure. Being in such a remote, quiet location so close to the Russian River made it worth it. But it's just something too consider.
I wouldn't recommend staying there with a small child. No room satisfied all his needs for a sleep environment. And there's very little play space other than the back porch--with tons of very exciting breakable decor.
A few nitpicks. Downstairs tub didn't drain well. Cookware was scratched non-stick, which is toxic to use. The oven doesn't close all the way, making for inefficient heating. A/C is a floor-window unit in the kitchen, so it doesn't cool the whole house. All the bathtubs require care getting into. No bedroom was easy to cool in the hot summer months.

Very Remote- Parking limits are real
This property was clean and as represented in photos, but hard to find as the "turn-off" road is not well marked, and house is up a very rough one-track lane deep in the woods. Although it was only 7 miles from my son's house it took over 30 minutes to travel. Also, the entry to the home is not very safe...you have to walk down a hill on loose pea gravel with no stairs or railings. It was tough for my older mother and we had to carry suitcases and you can't drag them over gravel. Suggest they create a SAFE path of entry for guests.
