Sunlight filters through towering redwoods as you sip morning coffee on the wraparound deck overlooking the Russian River. This dog-friendly retreat sleeps 8 with three bedrooms and an impressive outdoor kitchen complete with dual grills and smoker. Your private neighborhood beach sits right in the backyard — launch kayaks or simply wade into the gentle current. Just 5 minutes from downtown Guerneville's restaurants and 2 miles to Armstrong Redwoods. The river calls, and your cabin awaits.
The space
Spend mornings on the deck as mist lifts off the Russian River, afternoons floating the river or visiting Korbel and Joseph Jewell tasting rooms, and evenings around the firepit with the day's bottles.
The living room rises to vaulted ceilings with exposed dark wood beams. Sink into the sectional beside the wood-burning fireplace, queue something on the 50-inch smart TV, or pour a drink at the antique bar. Stainless appliances — French-door fridge, gas range — line the galley with a small island for extra prep, and a sliding glass door opens straight to the deck. The dining table seats six for the long, slow Russian River evenings the home is built around.
OUTDOOR LIVING
The wraparound deck is where the magic happens — three umbrella-shaded dining tables and a high-top for two nestle among the redwoods. In the fenced backyard, an outdoor kitchen with dual gas grills, range, and smoker surrounds a grand table for alfresco feasts. End the evening around the firepit, then rinse off in the outdoor shower.
SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS
Three bedrooms sleep up to eight. The first two each offer a queen bed. The third has a queen plus a twin-over-full bunk — for families. A pocket door connects the second and third bedrooms.

Guest access
Step out to an elevated deck on the redwoods' edge, valley and forest fanning out, then come back inside this knotty-pine cabin where built-in bunks line the kids' room. You've got the whole home, dogs welcome, with a balcony off the main level and outdoor dining wrapping around. Punch in the keypad code on arrival; up to two cars fit in the carport, with two more in the driveway.
Things to know
• The high-speed internet (350 Mbps down) keeps you connected when cell service gets spotty in the redwoods.
• While the home has efficient mini-split AC units and space heaters, the towering redwoods provide natural cooling shade on warm days.
• Take advantage of the incredible outdoor kitchen — with two gas grills, a gas range, AND a smoker, you can create feast-worthy meals.
• The outdoor shower is perfect after sandy river adventures.
• This is a true cabin experience with authentic knotty pine throughout — embrace the nostalgic Russian River vibe.
• The primary renter must be 25 or older.
• Your private beach access is a rare amenity — most properties require driving to river access points.

Great house full of everything you need. Right on the river, but have to pass through a stagnant creek to get to river. Not a big deal but it was a surprise.

The stay went well, when we first arrived the the sheets in the room with bunk beds had hair/ dirt on them. Make sure to wear shoes while out on the side deck as the screws were sticking up and the wood is brittle. One of the burners on the gas grill in the deck didn’t work so we had to use the large one down on the patio but that needed to be cleaned.
The Pros; great location and right on the river with nice beach for our kids and dog. Nice seating area that fit every one comfortably. The deck facing the back was very nice and you can tell had been recently redone with beautiful views.
