Birthday Treat

This home was ideal to celebrate my daughter's birthday with her friends! We enjoyed the location, and cooking up a feast. The dock was off limits because of the seasonal rains, however this news was communicated to us ahead of time and we made adjustments as to where to access the river and it did not impact our enjoyment for a long weekend. The girls loved the hot tubbing under the stars. Thank you for having us!

Short but sweet.

The house was really big and clean. The hot tub was hot and the view amazing. We loved watching the otters go by and the ducks and birds play in the river. Will be back when the river is slow and low so we can enjoy in the water activities.

Another great stay!!

This is maybe the 5th time my friends and I have stayed at this property. We absolutely love it. It's always super clean, has everything one needs, and the dealing with the owners/manager is a dream!!It's right on the water with beautiful mostly private views. Access to the river when available is so fun, and the hottub is always clean and inviting. I love this place so very much.

Fun Friend Getaway

I picked this property to have a couple of friends come out to help celebrate a milestone birthday. We had a great time at the house which is set up perfectly. The common area has a ton of space and is good for when everyone wants to be together and good if people want a little separation. All of the bedrooms are in separate corners of the house which is also nice. Would love to come back in the warmer months when we can use the dock. Great location for a quick walk into town for coffee and for a short drive to wineries.

Holiday Getaway

I’m afraid to be honest because then place will be so popular I’ll never be able to rent it again! I LOVE THIS HOUSE. The beds and couches are super comfortable. A big size TV in all bedrooms and the living room? Above and beyond and greatly appreciated!! The house is spotless (including the hot tub). Bonus points for being dog friendly and also super clean! The kitchen made me swoon. I have never had a rental with such a fully equipped kitchen! We brought things up “just in case” but did not need to. The pictures do not do this place justice! The property manager, Naomi was very responsive and helpful and a great communicator. She anticipated some potential questions and provided answers before I even asked them (love that)! I would rent this house again in a heartbeat!

Thanksgiving on the Russian River

We had a wonderful stay over Thanksgiving at this lovely home! The space was even nicer and more open in person than the pictures show. It was perfect for hosting our group, and the space was well appointed with all the cooking supplies and space we needed for. Few large meals. The home and furnishings seem new and are in perfect condition, the deck space is amazing for some outdoor lounging. The location was easily walkable to town. We will definitely be back!

Wonderful Russian River Home

Our family of four stayed at Paradise for the long weekend. The home was easy to check-in and immaculate. The beds were very comfortable, kitchen was well stocked, and we had access to kayaks and paddle boards. The view of the river was beautiful. The location was great. We were just minutes from delicious restaurants and enjoyed hiking in nearby Armstrong Redwoods and the Jenner Headlands Reserve with breathtaking views of the ocean. The host was excellent. Informative, organized, and accommodating. We are already talking about returning this summer. It was such a delightful trip!

Wonderful girls weekend

It was so nice! Thank you so much! We used the dock and water toys and hot tub and went to the bars dressed as pickles for my cousins bachelorette party. Was a great weekend. The house was very clean, didn't smell like a river house one bit which is an impressive feat. The coffee provided was an absolute life saver. We left a frozen pizza and some eggs. Hope that's okay. Thank you so much!!

Beautiful

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful house. The dock and the river access are a dream. We did have a small issue with some construction happening next door. Apparently, it’s been going on for several years without much of an issue but the noise was really rough while we were there. They were working on building the deck and the structure around it, which required some very intense, loud equipment and machinery. I reached out to the property managers and they were understanding. They let us know when the construction was going to end for the day and tried to accommodate us the best they could. Even with this, I would recommend this property to anybody.

Girls weekend

It was a beautiful piece of property. We all love to prepare meals each night. The kitchen was well stocked. Access to the river was perfect with a couple kayaks that we loved. We enjoyed the wildlife. We do this each year, but choose to go to different locations. But if we didn’t, this was definitely be a house that I would recommend returning to year after year.

Paradise at the River

Location and house itself are perfect. Views of the River and a private dock for relaxing, kayaking and just floating. This time of year (all summer really) the River is like your private lake as the water slows to almost no current backing up from Johnsons Beach dam.

Perfect River spot

Enjoyed this place immediately upon walking in to the extremely clean, nicely decorated and arranged home. Plenty of space to work in this beautiful kitchen. Bedrooms separated for privacy. Deck area perfect for enjoying outdoor meals together. But, The Spot was the dock. We spent hours sitting on the dock, enjoying the kayaks and bird watching. Peaceful neighborhood with well kept homes. We walked to town on side street in 10 minutes. Would book again for sure!

Wonderful!

This is a lovely, comfortable, updated home with a great location on the river! There is a pretty view of the river from the deck and the living room. The home is immaculate and the layout is great for a combination of together time and privacy in the bedrooms. The hot tub is conveniently located steps away from the sliding door to the deck. Beds are comfortable and the kitchen has everything you need. My teens loved the dock, as well as the small beach that they could swim to across from the dock. Naomi is also wonderful property manager who is extremely communicative and responsive. We highly recommend this property!

Restorative riverside retreat

This gracious house reflects a lot of thoughtful care -- the kitchen is well-stocked with everything one needs for cooking, the bedrooms and bathrooms are comfortable, the deck perfect for boisterous meals or evenings spent listening to the frog chorus. We watched the swallows swoop against the evening sky from the comfort of the hot tub; we cannonballed into the river off the dock; we kayaked (thanks to the house's ample supply of water toys); we had a lovely five-day respite. Special shout-out to the property management company, who did a marvelous job with check-in and check-out. We are already planning a return visit.

Location, location, location but ...

This property offers a convenient location with easy access to various amenities. The house itself is clean and well-kept. Nearby, you'll find vineyards, parks, and the ocean within a short drive from town. A unique feature is the property's location directly on the river, potentially attractive for kayaking or swimming enthusiasts. It's important to note that the master bedroom doesn't have a door separating it from the bathroom. This should probably be added to the property description.

About the host

Hosted by Naomi Smith

After years as working as an employee in the short-term rental market, managing multiple departments, I took a leap of faith acquired my Sonoma County Property Manager certificate. I began managing properties myself in 2021. I enjoy hosting visitors to the Russian River area, where I have lived all my life. I hope that each guest staying at the property leaves with a smile on their face and the consideration of a return stay.

Why they chose this property

Managing a riverfront property in Guerneville allows me the excuse to take a break along the river banks each time I visit Paradise. Guests love the location for its' unobstructed views of the Russian River, its seasonal river access, 2 single kayaks, and of course, the hot tub.

What makes this property unique

This home is located just far enough out of town that you feel removed from the town's activities, yet close enough that you may choose to walk to town for an afternoon lunch & ice-cream, or an early dinner. Less than a 5 minute drive from Guerneville, yet on point along the river bank for all it's fun and games. Modern furnishings, an open floor plan, and professionally cleaned between each stay.
