Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!' Nestled among the treetops across the road from the Russian River, this Forestville home is a true escape for the senses. It's the perfect place to experience a special part of Sonoma County - in peace and privacy, but with so much at your fingertips. This two-story home sits in a rural area on the north side of the river, about five miles north of small-town Forestville. The house feels wonderfully secluded, yet it's also close to charming downtown Healdsburg (12 miles), Sebastopol (12 miles), and a wide assortment of world-class wineries, including some right on Westside Road. In warm weather, go rafting on the river or soak up the sunshine at Mother's Beach (one mile). Or, take a drive through Guerneville (six miles) to spend the day on the wild and beautiful Sonoma Coast at Jenner (19 miles). Quiet and cozy, this home provides generous space to relax both inside and out. Sip your morning coffee on the deck as you breathe in the fresh forest air. In the evenings, prepare your favorite meals in the spacious kitchen, linger around the dining room table, and stream movies in the living room late into the night. The bedroom layout is unique and particularly private, with one bedroom and one full bathroom in the main part of the house and an additional studio - with its own sleeping space and full bathroom - downstairs, accessible from the exterior of the house only. Complimentary WiFi is provided but can be spotty due to this beautiful rural country environment. Things to Know Check-in time: 4:00 p.m. Check-out time: 10:00 a.m. There is no washer/dryer.

Bed and pillows were comfy. Plenty of parking. Felt like staying in a tree house. Lots of really lovely wineries nearby. Toddler enjoyed playing on the deck and finding sticks in the yard. We definitely plan to stay here again. ##### Valerie K. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 6/10 Okay #### Evan S. Aug 24, 2024 #### Nice with a few notable hiccups The house was well stocked and as described on the website. However the house was wasn’t as clean as you’d expect when paying a cleaning fee. There were dead bugs in the window screens & spider webs throughout the home & bathtub We weren’t able to use the showers or drink water from the taps due to the water smelling foul. Obviously missing a major feature such as water put a damper on the stay. ##### Evan S. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 6/10 Okay #### Jagriti H. Nov 8, 2024 #### Decent house but bad wifi experience The house itself was nice and nestled in the forest which was good but we had a very bad experience with wifi. My kids missed their online math classes because there wasn't any connectivity. I had to call customer support multiple times. Finally when customer support came to the location it took them 2 hours to figure out that there was no actual modem and router in the home. The wifi was through a portable hotspot device which was out of charge and the charger was nowhere to be found. Also the second bedroom and bathroom are not connected to the main house and have a completely separate entrance. While this was mentioned in the listing, it felt a little hidden and was easy to miss. We were inconvenienced because of this as we are a family with relatively young kids. The toaster in the kitchen was not working ##### Jagriti H.
