Great Time at a Beautiful Property

Property and house are lovely. Despite running out of propane and warm water and being cold, we made the best out of it. The owner refunded some money back and was responsive andprofirewood, which we used up.

Excellent Family weekend getaway

Our family had a wonderful time at Santa Nella House. The house had everything we needed, it had enough space for everyone to spread out, the wrap around porch was spacious, we ate our meals outdoors every day, the hot tub and sauna were awesome, and the fire pit at night was a wonderful added bonus so that we could sit around making s’mores and sharing stories. We’ll be back!

Review of Guerneville property

Fabulous house. Very comfortable and perfect for five or ten. We had five of us so we each had our own room And Bathroom. Hot tub was great. Everything is close. Seems like everything was no more than twenty minutes away from the ocean to wineries to great bicycle trails in Forestwood to a great breakfast in Graton at Willow wood market. And watch The Birds movie and then go to Bodega Bay!

Great house for a family gathering

We had our extended out-of-town family stay here for our late October wedding-- our parents, sibs and families, and our kids. it was a fantastic choice. Lots of flexibility with the different bedroom configurations, comfortable beds, places for kids/adults to hang out separately, hot tub. The house was clean and well cared for, and the yard was nice too. Short drive to downtown Guerneville with a Safeway, and Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve with beautiful old growth redwoods. A great find!

Guerneville Family Retreat

We rented the property for the last week of June 2023 for your fifth annual family retreat. We have no significant issues and the house worked wonderfully for our group (13 adults and an infant). - The house (and its contents) are loaded with character. Furniture is very much in line with the house (period pieces vs. Ikea). - We used all six bedrooms/bathrooms. One adult did end up on a rollaway bed which worked fine. - The kitchen is large and well equipped. We did all meals at the house, so there was a lot of activity in kitchen. It was nice that the kitchen had ‘leftovers’ of non-perishable items that previous guest had left behind (actually helped us avoid additional trips to store in town). Note – the fridge is a bit on the small size for a large group, but we made do. - Hot tub heated to about 100 degrees and was a wonderful way to enjoy late evenings. - House is near a main road but there so there was a bit of noise (but nothing compared to city noise). - We were easily able to parks six cars (not SUVs, but expect it could accommodate six as well). Note – the house is not in town and a car is needed when venturing out. - Library of books and games was a nice touch. Overall, a great stay in a beautiful old house with lots of spaces to spread out and relax. PS – one of our group left behind a computer charger and the owner was nice enough to quickly get it mailed to us. Very much appreciated.

Lovely Stay in a beautiful Victorian Home

I would love to give this property 5 "shout out" stars, and for the most part it is a 5 star. We are a group of 8 retired "vintage" ladies, who have been gathering together for a special trip each year for the last 38 years...3 teachers, 1 school nurse, 1 book editor, 1 family councilor, 1 school secretary, and 1 business owner. We always hope to rent a house that number one, has enough bedrooms and bathrooms for us, and number two has a hot tub. This house fit all of our wishes perfectly except for the hot tub. It was cloudy and smelled strongly of chlorine (which means the chemicals are not balanced). We notified the property manager two days in a row. Each time we were told the maintenance person would be out there the next day. It didn't happen. We gave up the by the 3rd time. The owner told us that the hot tub was fine without even seeing it. Be aware that in the house rules, renters will be charged $150 if the hot tub has foam in it when they leave. We asked for that same amount returned to us since we were unable to use the tub. Also, we did not use the cabin, which we thought was included in the rental price, but found out there was an extra charge for it. I may have missed something in the house advertisement on that one. HOWEVER, the house and grounds are very nice. The kitchen, location, ambiance, and wrap around deck couldn't have been better. Don't let this review scare you away. If a hot tub is not a priority to you, everything else is spot on.

Bay Area book group 30 year anniversary

Lovely. But…Surprised that “extra beds” were rollaways and that cottage required separate reservation. Online key pad instructions incorrect. Library door is to the RIGHT of front door (facing house). Need new can opener-current does NOT work at all. Great Kitchen! Almost everything we needed. Large upstairs bedroom electric fireplace did not work. Could not take last garbage to outside can as it was still out on the highway. Overall had a wonderful time and would recommend this house to others.
