Mid Century Cabin in the Redwoods

Located on a quiet street, this 2-bedroom 2-bath cabin is surrounded by majestic old-growth Redwood trees. Relax with a glass of wine on one of two new redwood decks. The sound of birds flapping their wings as they fly overhead is one of the only sounds you'll hear. Inside, enjoy the mid-century architecture and a collection of ever-evolving modern and folk art.

The cabin is our family getaway, our absolute favorite spot, and we offer it to guests just ten times a year. The architecturally striking cabin, the prettiest one in the area, is close to great wineries, restaurants, spas, and hiking. Just as importantly - it's not in the flood zone nor the fire zone.

We know this cabin is more expensive than some others in the area, and it doesn't disappoint. You'll find comfortable mid-century furniture with plenty of modern touches. The grounds are landscaped and bouquets of locally grown fresh flowers are inside. The kitchen, bathrooms, and laundry areas are fully stocked, from spices and butter to detergents and soap, and plenty of paper products. Lots of extras are included - kindling and almond firewood, charcoal for the BBQ, beer & soft drinks in the fridge, ice cream in the freezer, and retro coffee service with a Chemex pourover.

We manage the cabin ourselves and it's a passion project for us. Every detail is meticulously cared for - from the gardens to the linens. We take the time to get it picture perfect, inside and out, for our guests. We've hosted anniversaries, milestone birthdays, and several honeymoons and wedding parties.

Please inquire if you want to bring a pet. We occasionally allow a well-behaved dog, never puppies or other animals. All stays with pets need to be approved with the owner prior to booking.

The cabin's exterior, with a dramatic roofline, has won architectural awards. The inside was recently remodeled, creating an open and inviting living space. We've added lots of original artwork. Skylights in every room - even over the beds and above the fireplace - bring the outdoors in. A huge stone fireplace and an audiophile's sound system make this a cabin to remember. Romantic and cozy for a couple as well as great for young families. (Please let us know if children are coming - we store children's gear offsite.)

We know cleanliness is important to our guests. It's super important to us, too, and to be perfectly honest, we're slightly obsessed with keeping the cabin sparkling clean. You'll notice that carpets have just been shampooed, and windows and skylights are spotless. All linens (including blankets, pillows, and coverlets) are sanitized well in advance of each stay. We don't take back to back bookings.

Sleeps up to two. (Set up as a two bedroom, but the cabin is a legal one bedroom because of the septic system size.) Comfortable beds include a CA King from European Sleepworks in the master bedroom, queen bed in the office, and an almost full size pull out sofa in the living room, which is fine for children or one adult. Radiant heat floors in the bathrooms, central heat, and a wood burning Fisher stove keep you warm inside, as the majestic Redwoods and large front-yard Bigleaf Maple keep the property slightly cooler than the surrounding areas. Custom California Closets, high-end linens and appliances including a Bosch washer and dryer, and floor to ceiling windows throughout.

The two new redwood decks add another 1200 feet of outside space for you to enjoy. On the shade-filled side deck, fern fronds quietly unfold. On the spacious back deck, bordered by red and purple flowers, Anna's hummingbirds are enticed to feed. Each deck has multiple seating options and year-round warmth beneath commercial patio heaters.

Announcing our new collaboration with Bruce Patch Wines! All 2023 stays receive a complimentary bottle of Bruce Patch's 2018 Harris Kratka Zinfandel, 2019 Schoolhouse Creek Old Vine Zinfandel, or 2020 Sauvignon Blanc. Our friend and neighbor Bruce is a renowned winemaker, has access to incredible vineyards, and makes bold & flavorful wines with an artful label. See www.brucepatch.com for more.

You might not have heard of Forestville, CA, before. (We hadn't either.) With a population of just over 3,000, it's home to vineyards, farms, wineries and a small downtown shopping area. It's wonderfully diverse. On the one hand, you might see wild turkeys meandering down our road, and there's a Michelin starred restaurant in Forestville, too. We're happy to recommend our favorite haunts - many close-by and fabulous wineries and restaurants for you to visit during your stay.

The cabin finally has internet as of July 2023, thanks to Starlink's new technology for rural areas - relying on 4,000 small satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO). It's still a rural cabin with plenty of giant redwood tree obstructions, but cell phone service and internet are now available. Starlink has plans to add another 8,000 LEO satellites, so we expect internet service to become more robust over time.

Wonderful getaway
We spent 4 wonderful days at this property in early November. It was very nice, with many little details that added to the enjoyment of our stay including a well-stocked refrigerator, coffee service, and fresh flowers in vases. It is very quiet and somewhat isolated, in the forest so not much sunlight but beautiful. The bed was very comfortable. We enjoyed the fireplace in the evenings, it got cold outside and the floors were cold, so we appreciated the heated floors in the bathroom. There is no cell phone service in the area (it disappears a few miles from the house), but there is internet at the house. It was a little unreliable but fine for checking email and news. One odd note is that the master bedroom has no window coverings on the lovely floor to ceiling windows. We were there during the week so no one was around, but it still had a fishbowl feeling in the evenings with the lights on. The area is a little far away from the wineries we enjoy, so we did quite a bit of driving. There is no forest trail nearby for early morning or afternoon walking, so we drove elsewhere for these activities. Forestville is a small community and the restaurants there were mostly closed while we were present. The Farmhouse Inn is amazing, but being Michelin-starred, fairly pricey. And we drove to other restaurants, incorporating this into our planned itinerary so it wasn't a problem. All in all it was very much what we expected from a cabin in the woods, only better.

This cabin in the redwoods is an exceptional getaway for anyone who enjoys peace and nature. We were visited by hummingbirds every morning and watched the deer roam around in the evening. It is a short drive to all of wine country, especially the Russian River valley. Communicating with Elizabeth was wonderful and she made a personalized experience for my wife and me who were celebrating our 25th Wedding Anniversary. A great place you will not forget!

We stayed here during a very rainy January so we did not get to experience most of the outdoor space this property has to offer, however it is very cute and quiet. We really enjoyed waking up surrounded by Redwoods and it is not far to fantastic wineries and restaurants. Elizabeth, the host, was very communicative and helpful and truly made this a wonderful experience.

Russian River Valley Getaway
Perfect getaway and base for exploring Russian River Valley vineyards; main challenge was finding the house the first time (great instructions) and dealing with spotty internet (typical of the entire surrounding area ... just needed to plan ahead; provided a great opportunity to "unplug" more than usual, talk more, and dig into a good book); we'll be back

A beautiful, quiet and peaceful home amongst the redwoods!!! We enjoyed sitting outside as we breathed in fresh pine air and listened to the silence with intermittent echoing chirps. This place is perfect to get away from the everyday world to relax and reset oneself. Everything in this rental from the location, décor, and of course Elizabeth & Mark’s gracious hospitality, only creates a fabulous experience. This was our first VRBO rental and will always be a cherished one.

Do you really want to unplug and relax? This is your getaway cabin!
Elizabeth, one of the owners (along with her husband), was a brilliant communicator, with precise details and so generous with sharing recommendations of nearby restaurants and activities. She was spot on with all of it! The cabin is pristine and has everything you need. The one thing the cabin does not have is cell service/internet/tv -- and this is one of the reasons we chose this property. We needed to have zero temptation to use devices -- and this is the place to do just that! They have a great sound system wired throughout the cabin, so listening to music was pure delight. They provide everything you need for building a fire indoors, or heated patios/decks for outdoor relaxing (it was too cold out for us to enjoy the outdoor space, but floor to ceiling windows in the cabin give you all the same spectacular views of the redwoods and thoughtful landscaping). I do recommend that you print up directions to a few of the spots you know you will visit (grocery store, Guerneville, etc) because you do not have any cell service at the cabin -- it takes quite a few miles to get any cell service (unless you have Verizon, there is better coverage apparently -- we had AT+T and had to drive quite a distance to get cell service). We had planned ahead and printed out multiple location directions - super helpful. BTW, there is a landline at the cabin you can use -- that gave us a sense of safety in case there was an emergency. We never used it, but was glad it was there. This was definitely one of our favorite vacations - super chill, and the location was fantastic as there is so much to do in the surrounding towns (hiking, kayaking, national parks, etc). If you truly want to completely unplug and relax, this cabin is for you!
