Riverview ~ Riverfront MCM Gem. A favorite for Family Holidays! Woof

Riverview is a well-cared-for spacious family home located right on the edge of the redwood-lined Russian River. The views are spectacular from most rooms and the deck. The living is easy and relaxed with nothing but nature's beauty at its very best.

Guests can spread out between four bedrooms (two at each end of the house), large living and dining room, kitchen with breakfast nook and recreation room downstairs. The living room immediately invites relaxation with amazing views through the wall-to-wall windows, flat screen smart TV, games and sliding doors to the deck. Just step through the doors from the kitchen to the deck to BBQ-ing while watching the river go by.

Know Before You Book:

On the west side of the house, enjoy the master bedroom with a king bed, sitting area and view of the river; guest bedroom with a king bed overlooking the front courtyard; full bathroom with tub, separate shower stall and view of the river off the hallway. The east side of the house offers 2 newly remodeled guest bedrooms, one with a queen bed and one with 2 twin beds; newly remodeled full bathroom with shower/bathtub combo; a full kitchen, breakfast nook, half bath and laundry room round out the eastern end of the house.

A large private dock is accessed from the terraced backyard. During the summer months, the river is dammed, allowing for swimming and paddling in calm waters. A 3-person canoe and a 1-person kayak, plus 2 kid's kayaks, with life vests, are available when summer dams are in (typically June 15th thru September 30th, or as determined by Russian River Parks & Recreation Department), weather and water levels permitting.

In addition to the large back deck and terraced yard facing the river, the front yard is fully fenced and serves as a shady courtyard patio. A large lemon tree shares fruit year round.

For star gazers, there’s a telescope and binoculars for bird and deer watching. A wood burning fireplace and central heat keep you cozy in the colder months.

The house is conveniently located a 15-minute walk (0.7 miles) to downtown Guerneville, which offers several selections of restaurants, bistros, bars, coffee shops, and Johnson’s Beach. Jump in the car – it’s just a 7-minute drive to the famous Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve to hike and picnic among the giant redwoods, 4 minutes to Korbel Winery and their yummy deli and 8 minutes to Porter-Bass Winery. Golfers, Northwood Golf Course is a 9 minute drive. So much, so close!

Security Cameras: For the safety of guests and the home, there is an exterior camera off the back deck, facing the river.

Heat: Central heating and woodstove. Firewood and kindling are not provided.

Rec/Game Room: The game room is an unheated, uninsulated space. Temperature varies throughout the year.

A/C: The house does not have air conditioning. Being near the coast, the night time temps drop and just opening some windows is usually enough to cool the house.

Great Cabin on the River
We loved our stay on the Russian River. The house was very spacious for 7 women, beds were comfortable and the deck was perfect. The house was clean, well stocked in the kitchen and lots of towels (beach & bath). The basement was full of floaties which was great since it was a very warm weekend. The kitchen is a bit small and dated but reminded us of a rustic cabin. Parking is limited but worked for us with 3 cars.

Favorite river house to date.
We do a yearly friends trip to the RR, and this was our favorite spot yet. Everything was easy about checking in and out. The management company is friendly and helpful. The biggest selling point for us was the large dock and river toys. We hope to return next year.

This rental is one of the best on the river, works well for families but not elderly, lots of stairs to the dock , the beds are super comfortable and the kitchen has everything you need to make ANY meal , big frig and freezer, lots of river toys and floats , we only dined out once in town at Dawn Ranch for our 5 day stay , I’ll be back as soon as I can , no need to go to Tahoe anymore

We had a lovely time relaxing and fishing in the river! The house is very accommodating for families. It is an older property with unique charm. Rustic and set back in time. Updated bathrooms a plus. New partial flooring. Super comfy beds! Well stocked kitchen. You cant beat the view!

We can’t wait to come back!
We had a great stay with two children under the age of 5 and dogs. We look forward to coming back in warmer weather when we can take advantage of all the water rec toys available. There was an ant problem they are trying to remedy but that can be expected. Thank you for a wonderful time!

Wonderful house on the river
We had a wonderful vacation at this house. The pier is nice and large, with lots of sun, but also two umbrellas for shade, and plenty of chairs. The swimming was great, nice and deep (although that might vary from year to year). The view of the river from the deck is spectacular, and it's also nice to be able to see the pier from the deck, which is not always the case with other houses on the river. The house itself is very nice and the kitchen is well stocked. Thank you for a very nice stay!

Family of 6 stayed here for one week
Our stay at the Riverview home was very enjoyable. With three young children who love the water and adults who wanted to relax and be near the children, this was a perfect setup. House was very clean, charming and had lots of bedroom space. Good location to drive to Rio Nido, Monte Rio, Duncan Mills, and Armstrong Woods. The older children were able to walk into Guernville on a back road parallel to River Road. Bikes, canoe and water toys were a very nice addition to our stay. A bit of a walk down the hill to the river and back and not for someone with bad knees. We would come back again!
