Beautiful

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful house. The dock and the river access are a dream. We did have a small issue with some construction happening next door. Apparently, it’s been going on for several years without much of an issue but the noise was really rough while we were there. They were working on building the deck and the structure around it, which required some very intense, loud equipment and machinery. I reached out to the property managers and they were understanding. They let us know when the construction was going to end for the day and tried to accommodate us the best they could. Even with this, I would recommend this property to anybody.

Girls weekend

It was a beautiful piece of property. We all love to prepare meals each night. The kitchen was well stocked. Access to the river was perfect with a couple kayaks that we loved. We enjoyed the wildlife. We do this each year, but choose to go to different locations. But if we didn’t, this was definitely be a house that I would recommend returning to year after year.

Paradise at the River

Location and house itself are perfect. Views of the River and a private dock for relaxing, kayaking and just floating. This time of year (all summer really) the River is like your private lake as the water slows to almost no current backing up from Johnsons Beach dam.

Perfect River spot

Enjoyed this place immediately upon walking in to the extremely clean, nicely decorated and arranged home. Plenty of space to work in this beautiful kitchen. Bedrooms separated for privacy. Deck area perfect for enjoying outdoor meals together. But, The Spot was the dock. We spent hours sitting on the dock, enjoying the kayaks and bird watching. Peaceful neighborhood with well kept homes. We walked to town on side street in 10 minutes. Would book again for sure!

Wonderful!

This is a lovely, comfortable, updated home with a great location on the river! There is a pretty view of the river from the deck and the living room. The home is immaculate and the layout is great for a combination of together time and privacy in the bedrooms. The hot tub is conveniently located steps away from the sliding door to the deck. Beds are comfortable and the kitchen has everything you need. My teens loved the dock, as well as the small beach that they could swim to across from the dock. Naomi is also wonderful property manager who is extremely communicative and responsive. We highly recommend this property!

Restorative riverside retreat

This gracious house reflects a lot of thoughtful care -- the kitchen is well-stocked with everything one needs for cooking, the bedrooms and bathrooms are comfortable, the deck perfect for boisterous meals or evenings spent listening to the frog chorus. We watched the swallows swoop against the evening sky from the comfort of the hot tub; we cannonballed into the river off the dock; we kayaked (thanks to the house's ample supply of water toys); we had a lovely five-day respite. Special shout-out to the property management company, who did a marvelous job with check-in and check-out. We are already planning a return visit.

Location, location, location but ...

This property offers a convenient location with easy access to various amenities. The house itself is clean and well-kept. Nearby, you'll find vineyards, parks, and the ocean within a short drive from town. A unique feature is the property's location directly on the river, potentially attractive for kayaking or swimming enthusiasts. It's important to note that the master bedroom doesn't have a door separating it from the bathroom. This should probably be added to the property description.

Can't say enough good things about this property!

I can't say enough good things about this place. First and foremost it just has great energy to it. It is so nicely decorated, has everything one could ever need, and has windows and skylights everywhere making it so bright and welcoming. Even though there are houses on either side of you, they have gone to great lengths to make it still feel so very private. When in the house, all one sees is the river and forest. There are no houses across the river (at least not visible), so it is so very peaceful and quiet other than the sounds of nature. The kayaks and multiple floaties provided are so fun, and the new river deck is so nice to relax on and enjoy anytime of the year. Communication is five star as well! They always write back very fast and are very kind and helpful. And to top it all off, it's just a short 10 minute walk into town! (Pro tip: for a more peaceful walk not on the main road, I recommend crossing River Rd and walking into town on Old River Rd - it is mostly shaded and so peaceful and leads right into the start of town.) I have stayed here three times and already can't wait to go back.

Amazing property

We really enjoyed our stay here. The inside has been completely updated, with comfortable beds and furniture. The outside is lovely, and it is amazing to sit outside in the hot tub and watch the river flow past. There were nice touches too, like nightlights in the hallways, and an everything you would need in the kitchen. It lends itself to a perfect vacation!

River getaway

Wonderful and relaxing time on the river. Home was beautiful and clean, bedrooms spaced nicely for privacy. Large kitchen with plenty of room for meal prep and gathering together. Large table ample size for games, meals and other projects. Best room in the house was the sitting room overlooking the river, never even turned on the TV while we were there. Spent some soaking time in the very clean hot tub while watching the river and the rain and fog in the beautiful redwoods. Would definitely recommend and look forward to booking again in the future.

Spacious and beautiful house and location.

The whole booking and check-in process was flawless. Hosted our kids and mom for thanksgiving and there was plenty of room inside and out for lounging, feasting, games, and taking in the beautiful view. Kayaked on the river and saw otters frolicking and a heron catch and eat a frog. Gulp!

Wonderful stay with kids and grandparents.

We had a wonderful stay with my parents, in laws and children. Everyone enjoyed the spaciousness of the house, updated kitchen and furniture, and how well stocked the home was with supplies. We cooked several meals there and didn’t need to go out for anything. They even had soju shot glasses, which the grand folks loved. Plenty of comfy beds and rooms were clean. The views from both balconies were spectacular. Everyone really enjoyed the private dock. We can’t wait to return in the summer.

About the host

Hosted by Naomi Smith

After years as working as an employee in the short-term rental market, managing multiple departments, I took a leap of faith acquired my Sonoma County Property Manager certificate. I began managing properties myself in 2021. I enjoy hosting visitors to the Russian River area, where I have lived all my life. I hope that each guest staying at the property leaves with a smile on their face and the consideration of a return stay.

Why they chose this property

Managing a riverfront property in Guerneville allows me the excuse to take a break along the river banks each time I visit Paradise. Guests love the location for its' unobstructed views of the Russian River, its seasonal river access, 2 single kayaks, and of course, the hot tub.

What makes this property unique

This home is located just far enough out of town that you feel removed from the town's activities, yet close enough that you may choose to walk to town for an afternoon lunch & ice-cream, or an early dinner. Less than a 5 minute drive from Guerneville, yet on point along the river bank for all it's fun and games. Modern furnishings, an open floor plan, and professionally cleaned between each stay.
