We really enjoyed our stay at The River Cottage. The property was beautiful and the location was awesome! Close to both Jenner and Guerneville- where we made day trips. I would definitely stay here again.

River Paradise
Nice clean home on the Russian River. Beautiful redwoods throughout the area. Peaceful sounds of a waterfall and creek near by. Thankful for a great place to go with our four legged kid, Goldie. The only thing that would have made the trip slightly better would be a king size bed in the bedroom. Beautiful and peaceful vacation spot.

Perfect New Year Re-set
Needed a getaway to unwind from all the holiday shenanigans where we could rest and start fresh. Everything about this property is wonderful! We already want to return in the summer. My dog does not get to enjoy a yard at home so Nancy really really loved having the freedom to run and play here. Views of the river did not disappoint. Local grub is absolutely fantastic! Slept so well and it was bittersweet to leave. Thanks ever so much for having us! ~Carrie, Barb, and Nancy~

Quick River Trip
We loved our short stay here. The property was clean, well appointed and the layout of the home utilized the small space well. We enjoyed using the canoe. My daughter loved the outside bathtub. We will definitely be back again!

Premier rental property
I have stayed @ countless VRBO properties stateside and abroad. This property is the “Maybach” of rental properties. Our entire party appreciated the eclectic, beautiful decor/artwork. We all appreciated the attention to detail in providing any thing a client might need to be comfortable inside or outside of the home. We will absolutely return and stay longer next time!

Great house
Nice house that appears to be a recent remodel. Everything was new, clean and comfortable. Lots of amenities with private access to the river, hot tub and great outdoor lounging area. One thing to note is that the 2 bedrooms are in completely separate buildings. Not really an issue other than the fact we were traveling with our 5yo. We didn’t feel comfortable having her sleep alone as we wouldn’t be able to hear her if she woke up in the night. But if your kids are older then having a separate space might be a blessing.

Duncan’s mills is a great location near to both the coast and Russian river. Loved being right on the river! Karen’s property is beautiful and it exceeded our expectations. She’s very thoughtful and the property reflects that. Will definitely return!

We loved this place. Walking distance to Duncan's Mills, a beautiful hiking trail just down the road, dog friendly, super clean, thoughtfully designed space. We hope to come back. If I say too many good things it will be all booked next time we want to use it so I will stop ;).
