Welcome to The Grove, a world of privacy, with redwood-covered ridgetops above and redwood forests below. Perched on a hill above the Russian River, The Grove is an amenity-loaded haven for your Sonoma County stay. Is BBQing your thing? The Grove has a lovely back deck equipped with a large gas grill, outdoor dining table, bistro seating, wine barrel gas fire pit, all arranged to maximize the redwood and partial river views. Or, do you want to watch the big game? The home theatre system, with 120 inch projector screen and surround sound, is great for watching sports and movies. Looking forward to a soak in the Hot Tub? Climb into the secluded spa and look up and you will see how The Grove got its name: you are surrounded by a fairy ring of towering 175 foot redwood trees that lead your gaze to the stars. Is Gourmet Coffee your passion? Treat yourself to a European style espresso with a Nespresso pod, a cup of French Press drip or Pour Over freshly ground beans. Looking to explore? Both the Russian River and the town of Monte Rio are within walking distance.
