"Our stay at Madeira House was amazing! The views were stunning, the food recommendations were excellent, and the location was convenient. We wanted a calm and peaceful weekend getaway to savor the last bit of summer, and Madeira House delivered. It was beautiful. "
"My son and I had a great time staying here. Staff was nice and helpful. The tents are a good size, clean, and beds are comfortable with heated blankets. Nice big clean pool. It was nice to have our own fire pit to roast S’mores. Some other reviews I read were saying the bathrooms were bad but I really didn’t think so. This property is beautiful and we will definitely be back again. "

The Cliff House: Panoramic Oceanfront Views by Famed Architect Carson Bowler.
10/10 Excellent
"This was our second time at the Cliff House and we had a wonderful time. We love this property because we can just unwind at the house or take multiple walks on the beach throughout the day. Our dogs love the property as well. The house has all the kitchen utensils you could possibly need for any cooking you want to do. We will definitely be back to the property. "

Your Oceanfront Experience - Hot Tub - Lovely Fenced Courtyard
10/10 Excellent
"This was our 5th year staying at Aftermath. We love our yearly tradition here. Saw so many whales! Took a day fishing trip with Sonoma Coast Adventures, highly recommend them. Taking home tons of fish. A nice tip for fellow visitors is we load all our beach stuff and drive one minute down the highway to the state park campground at Wrights Beach. The bathrooms are close and you can spend all day in the sand. We are always sad to leave the coast and Aftermath but we’ll see you next year! "
"My concern always is, “Is this place really going to be as nice as they made it look?” Answer in this case, a resounding yes! We had a group of 9 — 6 adults and three children ages 5-8. Plenty of room for everyone. Plenty of cutlery, dishes, pots and pans. Beautiful decks and spectacular views from the living spaces. Ocean to the right, river in front and to the left. Lots of beaches within a short drive. Cool and scenic places all around. Highly recommend. You get what you see!"
"Large, private riverfront property that has it all. Sweet location minutes from supplies in Monte Rio and minutes to the ocean. House has plenty of water crafts and toys to choose from with life jackets and such. We did a little canoe trip after swamping it on our beach before we took off (it's been awhile lol), we visited the redwoods, and some beaches near Jenner. Lots of stuff to do in the area and at the house including catching fish from the private beach - we caught a few every night. We loved the fireplace down by the beach and everyone slept well with the cool night fog. On the last day we wanted to extend but looked like it was booked. Next time we'll stay longer and bring more people as this house seems like it could handle 8-10 pretty easily. Cheers!"
