River Haven: Hot Tub, Outdoor Lounge, Walk to Beach

Welcome to River Haven! A quiet, family-friendly getaway in the heart of the Russian River Valley.

Located just a 5 min drive from downtown Guerneville, and a 5 min walk to a private neighborhood beach, River Haven is a perfect wine country getaway.

The house has a large yard, brand new hot tub, outdoor lounge/kitchen area, movie theater and a game room with a pool table, ping-pong, darts and more! A canoe, kayak and SUP are located at the beach and are available for use during your stay.
The space
There is a fully-fenced yard for privacy and to provide a safe space for your pets to run around.

Enjoy your time with family and friends in the recreation room with a pool table, ping-pong, dart board and plenty of board games. There are also several lawn games available for your enjoyment (corn hole, spikeball, and giant Jenga).

Get cozy and watch your favorite or newly released films in the movie theater with a 1080P, 100" projector screen with screen mirroring capabilities, Amazon FireTV and surround sound.

The upstairs portion of the house is heated/cooled with a mini-split AC/Heating system. There is one unit located in the living room/dining room area and another in the primary bedroom (with King bed and en-suite bathroom). Please note that the rec room and theater room are not heated. A space heater and fan will be provided to heat/cool the rooms as needed.

Put your pizzaiolo skills to the test with the propane powered Ooni pizza oven available for your use (outdoor use only)! Instructions will be provided at the house if you are unfamiliar with how to use.

Not only is this a great house to entertain family/friends, but it is a great place to work from home (WFH). There is a dedicated work space and plenty of room to work in the dining room area (or even outside on the deck or outdoor lounge area in the warmer months).

Parking: There is room for Three (3) cars in the front of the house and one (1) in the garage. RVs, Trailers and campers are prohibited by the Sonoma County Vacation Rental ordinance
Guest access
Guests will have access to the main house and entire yard/outdoor area.
Other things to note
Maximum overnight occupancy is 8 persons, and daytime maximum occupancy is 14 persons.

Enough amenities will be provided to get you started - a couple rolls of toilet paper per bathroom, some paper towels, dish soap and dishwasher detergent, laundry detergent, coffee, and sugar. There may also be cooking oil, seasonings like salt and pepper and other things to cook with. However, these are brought by the guests and left for future guest use. I cannot guarantee everything will be fully stocked. If there is anything missing that you feel should be included, don't hesitate to ask!

The neighborhood beach is located just .2 miles away (~5 mins walk) where you will be provided with a 10' x 10' canopy for use as well as access to a canoe, kayak and stand-up paddle board (SUP). The boats are available seasonally and are kept at the beach and chained down with a lock. The code will be provided upon check-in if the river permits boating and they are down at the beach for use. There are bamboo mats, beach towels and chairs available for your use as well during the beach season.

Plenty of space for 8 people. Outdoor sitting area with pizza oven was a great way to get everyone together and out of the house. Game room was a big hit with kids.

Perfect family getaway

This property is amazing and absolutely perfect for spending quality time together! We had an awesome trip and made so many great memories!The house is packed with things to do—our family especially loved the game room, which was a big hit! The outdoor lounge was ideal for peaceful family dinners, and we really enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub at night.It’s just a few minutes walk to the beach, which was great! We had a great time hanging out on the river.The host was fantastic—communication was clear and timely, and was readily available and responsive if we had questions.We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Highly recommend for families looking for a fun, relaxing, and well-equipped getaway!

The house was large enough for everyone to have their own space if needed. Beds were very comfortable. There were plenty of games, pool and pingpong tables, darts, TV and projection screen for family members to watch F1 races. Appliances were quality and the neighborhood quiet. We didn't get to check out the outdoor floats, boats, etc so I can't speak to those but they were more than adequate size. The owner reached out and answered all of my questions in a very reasonable time. We definitely recommend this property.
