River Front Getaway Awesome Views Fish/Swim Out the Back Door

Located on the banks of the wild and scenic Smith River in the heart of the Giant Redwoods. Enjoy some of the best salmon and steelhead fishing right in your back yard. In the summer you'll swim, raft and kayak on the banks of this riverfront vacation home.

Explore the Giant Redwoods and the beautiful beaches of Northern California and Southern Oregon all just minutes away.

Your family will love this spacious 2 Bedroom, 2 Bath home featuring awesome river views from Living room, Dining room, Kitchen and Family room. 1 1/2 car garage with parking for additional 2-3 vehicles in driveway. Enjoy four outdoor living spaces, a flagstone patio with fire pit, wood deck and a patio off the living room all overlooking the river. Stairs down the bank to the river with a small landing to enjoy the river up close and personal.

In addition you can enjoy a ping pong table and regulation horseshoe pits for your family outdoor entertainment.

Sit by the fire on the patio or relax on the deck and let the beauty of nature take you to a place you'll want to return to year after year.

This is a cozy, comfortable home! We had a great time enjoying the river behind the house, and this place is very conveniently located to Jedidiah Smith state park, if you are looking to spend time in the Redwoods. The house itself has many great amenities, including games in the garage that my kids enjoyed playing with. I highly recommend this property if you’re looking for a quiet spot for a family vacation!

I liked the property and home. It rained on Sunday when we got up till about noon so things were wet on the deck; and a regional power outage for 9 hours from 6 PM on Monday to 4:30 AM the next morning. The 2 events cut our outdoor time back. We enjoyed a great blue heron across the river for hours and fish ducks and a big mallard and his mate. Bill saw a fisherman catch a fish. We played some horseshoes. The river house is pretty unique!

We had a wonderful stay at the river house. It was in close proximity to so many things. We hiked in the Redwoods, went to the ocean, swam in the private swimming hole, roasted marshmallows, sat outside reading and watching the cranes, ate some great seafood at The Chartroom but also was able to cook some excellent meals in a well stocked kitchen. One half of the house can be closed off at night for privacy plus there was a pillow library and everyone got a pillow that they loved. I kept waking up forgetting I wasn’t home it was so comfortable. That’s honestly never happened. We had a great time and made some fabulous memories.

Absolutely beautiful views right on the river! The house was well-equipped with everything we needed—and more. We experienced a minor maintenance issue during our stay, but the owners responded incredibly fast. Within 30 minutes, a crew arrived and fixed the issue promptly. It didn’t affect our stay at all. The hospitality, responsiveness, and location make this place a true gem. I’ll definitely be back and highly recommend it to others!

The owners are very prompt to return communication & have thought of everything to make stay warm, entertaining and convenient. Both beds were very comfortable as well! Very grateful for the thoughtfulness of having cooking supplies, toiletries/laundry soap, evengames! Thank you!
