Amazing host!
Over month prior to this trip, I got introduction/Welcome email from Clare. It was a surprised as I normally don’t get that from other rentals. Fast forward, a few days before my check in and something came up and I requested accommodation. Without questioning, Clare made it happened. It came off as needy guest and I hate being that type of guest but she made it happens! Clare also mad sure we needed anything during our stay and remain helpful throughput our stay. Clare not only made us feel welcome and enjoy our time but she made it felt like we are staying at a friend’s house and not just any rental. We will plan for a longer stay and book this place again! Thank you so much for everything you e done for me and my family!

Great house and location in Guerneville
Big, multi-level house with room for 8 but also privacy. Ideally located near river and downtown, but very quiet. Park with play structure and tennis/pickleball court right across the street. Owner is a very tasteful decorator and available for email assistance if needed. Big kitchen/living room/dining area and deck with BBQ and hot tub. Great for family gatherings.

Great location!
The location was perfect - easy walking distance from town, and close to the recommended start and end points for floating on the Russian River. The layout of the place was a little weird; we had a full house of 10 of us so we used the trundle beds and everything. Good for a group that knows each other well, but wouldn't be great for e.g. a group of couples. We hadn't realized also that it doesn't have air conditioning; we were there on a hot weekend so it got a bit stuffy. This is probably in the listing but we had missed it. It always gets chilly at night so it's not so bad if you have the windows open. Clare was very communicative and easy to work with, and the house was very clean. The kitchen was also really well-stocked. Thanks for a great stay!

Great location, nice house
Pros: Location is great. House is nice with ample space for socializing. Host was very responsive. Kitchen was pretty well appointed. Cons: Check in instructions and house rules documents were overwhelming & difficult to read—should be completely rewritten with attention to brevity, structure, syntax. So many warnings about dirtying the water of the hot tub that we decided to stay out entirely. Bed in small room off primary suite was so uncomfortable the friends sleeping there left after the first night. Lost hot water on the last day and had to take cold showers for check out.

Wonderful family time!
This is the only VRBO we’ve been to multiple times - it was our third visit and we will be back. We keep coming back because we play games on that big table, make cookies for ice cream sandwiches in the wonderful kitchen, enjoy a leisurely morning on the couches with a peaceful treetop view and the dogs smile as they run in the yard. The location is perfect- we enjoy taking advantage of the yummy restaurants and fun put put golf. But the home and yard is why we keep coming back. It rained half of our visit and we were perfectly happy and cozy. Thank you Clare for sharing such a special place with us.

Hidden gem for groups and pets
Clare is a gracious host who offers an amazing home for people and pets! We were pleasantly suprised at the accomadations during our holiday get away and it was truly refreshing to find an offering where we could bring our 2 large dogs in such a nice home, lots of care and love has gone into maintaining this property. The location is great as its located on a quiet street yet its just a short walk to town where you can find some wonderful restaurants and shops. You are also just a short scenic drive to many wineries which we particularly loved. We would highly recomend this hos and home and will hopefully be planning trips in the future!

Fantastic Find
We enjoyed our stay at this fantastic find. So close to Town, just a short walk over the bridge. Peewee golf place wasn’t open nor did it look like it had been for years. Very run down. The redwood park was stunning and we enjoyed many walks there. Our walk through town was fun and although we were there during off season many merchants were open. We will definitely return to this wonderful place. The property manager was amazing and always responded so quickly. Thanks you gain for the wonderful stay.

Fantastic in Guerneville
This is one of the best rental accommodations our annual cycling group of 6 have stayed in. Everything was pretty much perfect: clean, well-kept; extremely well equipped and provisioned, great location and reasonably priced. We would all recommend it to others, and plan to stay annually from now on (we've been searching each year for a "keeper" in this area and have not had any luck until now). One constructive criticism: I think Clare's instructions are just a little too granular. There's a lot to read in the manual, and if you aren't a bunch of lawyers, as we are, you'd probably give up for the details. There's a nice little adage in our line of work: too much information is little different from not enough information -- neither get you to the result you want. We'd recommend some editing. But that's us being nitpicky!

My family and I had a fantastic time while staying at Clare's property. The beautiful house has a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, and a hot tub. We couldn't ask for more! Clare was great at communicating and quickly replying to any message we sent. One very small thing, if you're planning on having picnics around Russian River, the house doesn't have Tupperware/food containers to transport your food, so bring those in case you need.

Good for families, great location
The house and privacy of the property was great. The bed set up is hard to assess from the online description. Here is my break down. 1st floor One bedroom with a queen bed 2nd room two twin beds that are daybed/trundles 2nd floor One king bed with a daybed and a couch Down a short the hall separated by a curtain One small room with a daybed/trundle bed. You can hear noises ie snoring, convos… between these two sleeping areas. There were 5 of us, all adults, only one couple. We all got private space but the equality of the rooms was far from equal. We are all close but it certainly wasn’t perfect if we weren’t. However, for a weekend on the river it was great. Plenty of parking, grilling option, social space, 2 full bathrooms. Plenty of towels and blankets. The owner was very kind and responsive.

2nd stay here, already have my 3rd booked!
We stay here for a very popular event in August and it is a rare find in Guerneville; walking distance to town, rooms/beds for a larger group, and all the amenities you need for a great stay (grill, hot tub, w/d). Clare, the owner, is very responsive and provides easy access to the house. Looking forward to our stay next year!

Clare is a great host, very helpful and friendly with checkin, and places to visit while here. Even when we had a small issue with the kitchen, Clare was able to get it all resolved so fast we didn’t notice. This house is absolutely wonderful, and close to everything you could want. Will definitely book again if available on our next trip here.

Perfect location
Home was great for our 3 day stay! Kitchen was fully stocked, super comfortable and easy location near town and the river. Awesome for families with kids.
