Perfect girl's weekend on the water

My best friend and I (plus my dog) very much enjoyed this property. Conversation with the rental company was top notch. The two bedrooms and bathroom were clean and comfortable. The kitchen had everything we need to cook meals after enjoying the river all day. It could use a few more staples (oven mitts, aluminum foil, saran wrap, a few pieces of tupperware) but otherwise really great. The upper deck is lovely for bird watching and the lower level concrete slab by the river was perfect for hanging out and having a nice cocktail. We will definitely come back. Highly recommend.

Our goal was to spend time shopping and wine tasting in Downtown Healdsburg, and this property was a perfect distance away! Being able to sit and enjoy coffee overlooking the river was perfect. The bathroom and kitchen are small but have everything you need!

Short relaxing stay on the river

The perfect cabin for a weekend get away. Stocked with everything you need, in great condition and on the river. Had coffee on the porch in the morning, watched the kayakers go by all day, kayaked in the afternoon and headed to town for dinner. We will definitely be back.

Just ok

My friends and I really wanted to love this home but we ran into several issues. It was over 100 when we were there and the swamp cooler at the property is pretty much useless (and there are no directions to operate). We wanted to open the windows to get the cooler air in at night but none of the windows or doors have screens, so a lot of bugs flew in and we quickly had to close them. We also were excited about using the river but no where in the listing does it say that there is not really any access on the property to the river. It is riverfront (the main reason we rented this property) but there are no stairs, etc so it's pretty dangerous to get down and up, especially for my pregnant friend. Lastly, the house needs some more comfy furniture inside and outside. There were only 2 chairs outside that were not broken so all 4 of us could not sit outside together. Inside, the sofa is comfortable but the other living room furniture is not suitable for adults so a couple of my friends were always sitting on the floor. Beds were comfortable, we liked the location and there is a definitely a charm to the place, but some minor adjustments to the property would make it much more enjoyable.

Relaxing

It was an amazing river house, only downside is that it was a bit difficult to get in and out of the river and there were deflated floats scattered around the river bank and hot tub area.

Lovely stay

Beautiful riverside property within accessible distance to downtown Healdsburg. We enjoyed daily runs into town from the house (testing our legs on the hills). The deck was perfect for happy hour and charcuterie with ample shade for the already warming days. Perfect for 4 close friends/family.

We Love Russian River

My wife and I and adult kids celebrated my birthday at the cabin and enjoyed every minute of it. We spent tons of time on the deck enjoying the weather and great views. The cabin is on the river and we used the kayaks and swam almost every day. The cabin is also very close to town and all the restaurants, breweries, wineries, golf etc. We also enjoyed cooking in the kitchen and bbq’ing on the deck. We would definitely recommend staying here its a great place.
