The stay

Walk half a mile to downtown Guerneville's eclectic restaurants and Johnson's Beach from this dog-friendly home built in 2014 on Old River Road. Two bedrooms sleep 6, with mini-split AC in every room, multiple decks among the redwoods, and a gas grill for backyard dinners. Korbel Winery, Northwood Golf Course, and Armstrong Redwoods sit within three miles. Note: multiple stairs lead to the front door.

The space

Spend mornings strolling half a mile to Coffee Bazaar and downtown Guerneville, afternoons floating the Russian River from Johnson's Beach or tasting at Korbel Winery two miles up the road, and evenings catching a pint at Stumptown Brewery three-quarters of a mile away. Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve and Northwood Golf Course are both an easy three-mile drive. Sink into the sofa or loveseat in the open living room, where a wall-mounted flatscreen anchors movie nights and colorful artwork plays off the turquoise walls. Board games stack nearby for slower evenings in. Cook on the gas range with stainless appliances at the ready, then pull up one of three stools at the peninsula so the chef stays in the conversation. Pendant lights warm the workspace while a window above the sink pulls forest light across the counters. Retreat to the dining table for a long dinner with the day's bottles, the kitchen glowing just steps away. OUTDOOR LIVING Step onto the upper deck for morning coffee in the Adirondack chairs, with two cushioned loungers and a shade umbrella waiting once the sun climbs. Drop down to the lower deck to fire up the gas grill and settle into the wicker seating, wire-mesh railings keeping the evergreen canopy in full view. Kids claim the swing, slide, and play structure in the yard. SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS Two bedrooms sleep up to 6: - Bedroom 1: 2 Queen beds, wall-mounted TV, sliding glass door to the deck - Bedroom 2: 1 Queen bed PROPERTY AMENITIES - Mini-split AC in every room - Full kitchen with gas range and dishwasher - Gas grill on the lower deck - Multiple decks and a fenced yard with play structure - Dog-friendly - Parking for 2 vehicles Please note: multiple stairs lead to the front door, which may challenge guests with mobility considerations.

The place was very clean and had lots of blankets and felt very cozy! The host was responsive and very friendly. I loved that they don’t ask much of you at check out. Walkable to downtown which is a huge plus for me. We will be back with my dog next time!

We had a good time, but the above suggestions would have improved our stay.

We loved the location near town and a major grocery store just down the road was great! But the things that made our stay more difficult were the lack of decent pots and pans to cook with. Mine was a family of (5) and we expected to make most of our meals on the premises rather than eating out, so it was very difficult to do so without a sizeable skillet and other cookware. I think they need to have on hand also Salt and Pepper at least. The fridge needs to be checked, when you open the door it's like a strobe light blinking continuously, this might be troublesome for someone with certain health issues. These are just some suggestions. see above.....

I loved the location. Quiet little neighborhood, almost felt private with how close we were amongst the trees. The downtown area was very close, about a 10 minute walk away. The unit itself was nice and matched the listing exactly. The kitchen was huge as well. Perfect for our little getaway.

Perfect floor plan for two couples sharing. Very clean and comfortable. Walking distance to great restaurants during the day; as streets are dark at night. Will likely come back again.
