    Russian River Hideaway - The Cabin...

    Russian River Hideaway

    (8 reviews)

    This was the perfect spot for my final summer getaway. Honestly, when I first looked at the…read morewebsite and saw that it was part of Summerhome Park and that there were activities for children, I was a bit skeptical about how much of a hideaway it would be for a group of adults. I imagined hearing children shrieking and playing all over the place. When we pulled up to the house, I was very happy to see that the community of homes is VERY spread out, so the home is pretty secluded. We walked up the stairs to find a very cozy home and guest house. The first night was spent cooking, drinking wine, and hanging out in the hot tub. The kitchen is well-stocked with utensils, so we cooked breakfast and dinner here each day. We were close to the river, so we spend the second day kayaking. The home has a TV/DVD player, so when we were exhausted in the evening, we could relax and watch movies or play some of the games available in the house. Wineries are not too far, so we spent the third day wine tasting. We had a great vacation, and we hope to return next summer!

    we had a great weekend there!…read more Unfortunately it rained but it was perfect weather in the hot tub. Its a good location - close to plenty of wineries and places to explore but tucked away in the woods so its quiet and private. The place is stocked with about anything you could need. seriously. I can't wait to come back in the summer as the large deck and outdoor brick grill will be perfect for an afternoon of soaking up the sun. i would definitely recommend this spot.

    We stayed here with our family after booking through Airbnb and honestly loved the whole…read moreexperience. The lodge has a super cozy forest atmosphere, it's very quiet, relaxing, and the hostess was incredibly kind and welcoming. It's the kind of place where you can truly disconnect and enjoy nature. We'll definitely be back -- I still need to settle unfinished business with the local fishing spots because I forgot my "lucky lures" at home Only a couple of tiny things that could maybe be improved: the coffee wasn't really our favorite, and the BBQ area could use a little love. But honestly, that's just personal taste. Overall we had a great stay and really enjoyed the place.

    When you need a cheap room with a place to stay in then this is it. However, it was kinda a mess…read more Bed frame was all janky, making noises like it was gonna break all night. The internet was so bad you couldn't even watch tv or your your phone (zero cell service so you really need to rely on WiFi which clearly was bad bad.)The couch looked like it with through 30 lives with the amount of stains, I didn't bare to sit on it. The shower also immediately flooded above the ankle when showering. I have photos of sheets with black mold on it. Idk just seems someone bought the property with no actual property management skills and I understand it's Guerneville, I get it, not looking for 5 stars but lord this place was like a trap house inside the hotel rooms. Also I left a lighter outside my room and walked to the market (50 feet away) and the maintenance guy took the lighter than proceeded give me another lighter (after approaching him) which was filled with weed/hash all over the bottom. The couple next door said he did the same thing to them) Overall it kind of was the expectation of a cheap room in Guerneville. Kinda sad since the adjacent Rio Nido Roadhouse is the coolest place in Rido Nido. Gave them a 5/5.

    We've been renting with RRG for more than 13 years--and stayed in 3 properties over that time:…read moreBabbleOn, Easy Days, and Dreamweaver. Since the produce & fish/meat here is so good, we moved away from staying in B&Bs to renting from RRG so that we could cook for ourselves. Each property has a distinct personality and feel--a small change in location can make a big difference here in the amount of direct sun, fog, hot or cool, or how isolated or centrally located you feel--so do your research or just ask the helpful folks at RRG (Julz has been particularly helpful about selecting a new property for different needs). Some houses have lots of steps (it's hilly here), some have very sunny decks, some have river access with kayaks or canoes and/or docks, others are in the redwoods which tends to be cooler. Kitchens also vary--most are well-appointed and all have standard appliances including a gas grill. If there's something critical for your holiday, make sure the place you choose has it (i.e. hottub, river access, dog friendly, redwood shade, etc.). Yes, they do ask you to clean out the frig and take out your own garbage & recyclying. There are laundry machines so you can wash clothes and also towels if you need clean ones during your stay--it's what the Brits call "self catering"--not a hotel, right? We like the privacy and DIY dynamic. BabbleOn: We stayed here in March many years back because we thought it would be a little sunnier in the wet season. The brook is lovely right next to the house and the house is bright and good sized; we used the gas fire a lot and only got one day on the small deck because it was so wet. Good well appointed kitchen. It's in old Cazadero--which is a trip to drive through--narrow roads up the hill through redwoods with lots of houses and then it opens out and you're there in a pretty neighborhood. Dreamweaver: stayed with 2 friends and it could easily suit 6 people with enough space for some alone time for all. 3 good bedrooms--the coolest is in the downstairs w/its own deck. BOTH decks get a lot of sun this time of year (late July)--so the afternoons were a little warm (heatwave for the area, that means 80F+)--which meant we spent time swimming in the river and on the dock or in the shade around the firepit in the backyard. Beautiful gardens and really well-appointed kitchen and also everything you could need for river fun. Do note that the river is deep on this side--as it over an adult's head, so if you aren't a strong swimmer, do use the life vests in the back shed (paddles watershoes even suntan lotion was all there!). There's not much current though--it's quite calm and about 2/3 of the way across you can stand on a gravel shelf. No hottub, but we didn't miss it. EasyDays: small, more rustic, up the hill in the same neighborhood as Dreamweaver. Good for 2 people--not for more with 2B/1Ba. Kitchen can be hit or miss if you're a serious cook--but visitors leave implements they bought behind, so there's always a new surprise (dough cutter and rolling pin this year). The deck surrounded by redwoods is the star attraction. LOTS of stairs and the steepest driveway you've ever seen.
