Description

Welcome to Wanderwood - a handsomely renewed craftsman home. Nestled among the majestic redwoods and just minutes from downtown Guerneville and the Russian River, you'll appreciate special touches like vintage light fixtures, antique glass windows, reclaimed old growth redwood, and period brass doorknobs. Spend days and evenings on the considerable deck and terrace overlooking the Russian River Valley. Cozy up to the woodstove in the stylishly appointed great room. Soak in the hot tub set into a fairy ring of redwoods. Enduring rustic interiors serve as the perfect backdrop for your wine country getaway.

Upstairs you'll enjoy the full kitchen and formal dining room, sun-soaked office with twin sofa bed, living room, small water closet, and access to the main deck and hot tub area. Downstairs, three bedrooms, a second living room, and full bathroom with jetted tub allow you to spread out or gather during your retreat. Mini-split heating and A/C units add to your comfort year round.

Know Before You Book:

Maximum Occupancy and Quiet Hours: The maximum occupancy at Wanderwood is 6 people. Quiet hours are from 9:00 pm until 7:00 am. Outdoor amplified sound is prohibited at all times.

Parking: There is parking for 2 smaller cars or one larger vehicle in a dedicated (gravel-lined) spot at the bottom of the stairs. Please be careful to pull vehicles fully off the road to allow room for everyday traffic and emergency vehicles. There is very skinny "shoulder" parking on the same side of the street as the house if you are very careful - this won't work for everyone. Parking is very limited in this neighborhood. We recommend carpooling as much as possible. RVs, trailers and campers are prohibited, per the Sonoma County Vacation Rental Ordinance.

Bed Sizes: Bedroom 1: Queen bed; Bedroom 2: Queen bed; Bedroom 3: Full bed. Office: Twin Sofa Bed (there are privacy curtains to close office away from main living area)

Heat Source: There are individual baseboard and electric heaters in each bedroom plus a woodstove in the upper living room (firewood and kindling are not provided) and mini-split heater and A/C units in each living room upstairs and downstairs. The gas fireplace in the downstairs living room photos is disabled and will be removed soon.

Cooling: There are two mini-split heating and A/C units - one in each living room - upstairs and downstairs. There are also portable fans in each bedroom closet and for common areas.

Location: Old Monte Rio Road is a narrow, one-lane country road - you may need to pull over for oncoming traffic. The road is paved but not necessarily smooth. Additionally, the surrounding side streets are narrow and steep with little to no street parking or shoulder.

Stairs: Wanderwood is a two story home - uphill from the parking area. There are approximately 30 stairs, with several landings, from the parking area to the front door and 16 stairs from the lower level of the home to the upper level of the home. The bedrooms are downstairs with a living room and full bathroom while the kitchen, dining, office, 2nd living room, and powder room are upstairs. There is a path up the hill to the hot tub.

Fencing: The property as a whole is not fenced, but the upper deck and lower porch and yard are fully fenced. The yard in front of the house is great as a dog run.

Security Cameras: For the safety of guests and the home, there are two exterior security cameras at the front porch and back deck for the gated entry.

Common Amenities not included:
The water closet upstairs does not have a sink, but is a few steps to the kitchen sink.

Proximity to wineries: The closest tasting rooms are in downtown Guerneville (1.6 miles), but there are many, many vineyards and at-winery tasting rooms within 10 miles of the house.

Nearest River Beach: The nearest river beach is a neighborhood beach in Guernewood Park - 0.8 miles from the house. Parking is limited.

Nearest Ocean Beach: In Jenner, 12 miles away.

Felt so welcoming

Reviewed on 2025-01-03 by Alexandra
Overall

We loved our stay here! It was peaceful and cozy and the house felt so welcoming and thoughtfully appointed. The views were beautiful and the house was even better than the pictures. We really felt tucked away in the woods. Our only small complaint was that the road leading to the house was a narrow one-lane road with many potholes, which was especially tricky at night in the rain, but the owners can’t control that! Overall a wonderful stay! -via Airbnb

Manager's Response

Hello Alexandra, Thank you so much for the lovely review! We're so glad you enjoyed your stay and that the home felt cozy and peaceful. We appreciate your note about the road—it's true, it's a bit rustic, but we're happy the house made up for it. You were great guests!

Exceeded our expectations!

This house is beautiful and charming. You feel like you are in a tree house as the redwoods surround you! Great kitchen and swing out widows throughout the house. Loved the office option as I needed to work one of the days we were there. The little town of Guerneville was really cute with some good bar and dinning options and the beach was a short and beautiful drive. We would definitely go back! -via Vrbo

This home was everything we needed and more. The hot tub sits perfectly in a sea of trees, creating a private and nature-filled experience. The kitchen had everything to cook nearly any meal, and because of the windows, we felt like we were outside even when we were inside. Even more, when it was time to settle on the couch, the tv provided all streaming apps and we could watch to our hearts' content. I highly recommend this home for a romantic getaway or a reunion with friends. Bring activities and firewood because you may never want to leave the home! - via Airbnb

We had a wonderful, extremely relaxing stay! The house has a lot of space to spread out but at the same time is really cozy. You really do need to bring any sort of "consumable" cooking supplies you may need like spices, oil, flour. We had to run to Safeway after checking in to the house, but luckily the store is EXTREMELY close! We absolutely would stay again!! - via Airbnb

I had an amazing stay at the Guerneville River home. The home was everything I was looking for and more. A highlight was the private hot tub amongst redwoods in the backyard. Even though it was a rainy weekend, we enjoyed the tub and staying in the cozy home, with just one reason to exit - a local wine tasting. I loved the layout of the home, allowing us to enjoy different activities in different spaces and also coming together in the common spaces to share meals and laughs on the couch. I will definitely consider returning to Guerneville River homes next year, thank you so much for our stay! - via Airbnb

We felt completely at peace in the middle of the woods with our hot tub :) The aesthetic was warm, inviting, and modern.

This property is located in a beautiful forest adjacent to the Russian River. The house is immaculately maintained and decorated with eclectic mid-century furniture.

This house was perfect for our 6 person getaway in August! The hot tub and the deck were great spaces to hang out in as a group. The bedrooms were quite private. The upstairs home office actually came handy as a couple of us worked during vacation for a bit. We used the kitchen a lot, and while there isn’t a lot of counter space, it was completely functional. We loved that the house had so much character!-via Airbnb

the only problem we had was starting the gas heater on the first floor. It's quite finicky and it took a long time for my husband to get it to light on the first 2 days when we needed it. Otherwise the house was really lovely and comfortable - it's a really special house! Thank you so much for sharing it.-via Vrbo

We had a wonderful stay at Wanderwood. It was the perfect cozy getaway for our group of five friends. The woods surrounding the house were beautiful and peaceful, the rooms were comfy, the gas fireplace and wood-burning stove kept us nice and warm (though do bring your own firewood), and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook some great meals. The hot tub under the trees was particularly great, even in the rain. On top of that, the team at River Homes was extremely responsive and thoughtful. I'd love to come stay here again!-via Airbnb

We booked this space for a birthday weekend and couldn't have asked for something better. We enjoyed the beautiful trees, hot tub, cozy fireplace! The cabin maximizes for views. It rained all weekend and it was beautiful to watch the rain from inside. Upstairs part doesn't have a heater but once we got the fireplace running it warmed up. The kitchen was completely stocked for us to make an amazing meal. It's close Safeway if you need to shop. Overall I would highly recommend booking this if you are looking to be surrounded by nature while having all the comforts. Host was very responsive.-via Airbnb

What an amazing and magical place! Close to Guerneville and the best bakery in the area. This quaint home was perfect for our family of 3 plus a large dog. Arrive early to turn on the heating during the fall and winter and then leave someone to nest while you grab groceries (just a 4 min drive to Safeway) and the home will be warm before you know it! Or just chill in the splendid and new hot tub while watching the mist rise through the redwoods. Kitchen has just about everything including a nice assortment of herbs and spices and tools! Beds are comfy and with great pillows. Baseboard heaters in the bedrooms do wonderfully well! Plenty of storage space for unpacking. Bathrooms are fine and shower/bath had good pressure!-via Airbnb

Our family had a wonderful stay at Wanderwood. One of our favorite Airbnb finds! Close access to the River, Wine country, and downtown Guerneville (recommend Big Bottom Market’s biscuits and sandwiches). The house was nicely decorated with comfortable furniture that felt more like a home than a rental. Nestled in the redwoods and just removed from the busy & noisy River Road kept the house both quiet and cool even when temps were in the 80s. Hot tub was great! Plenty of space for our family of 5 + dog.

I have been to Wanderwood twice now, and I honestly enjoyed everything about my stays. The location is stunning, surrounded by redwood trees. I especially enjoyed watching the fog roll through the trees in the morning and then blow over to reveal a sunny day with blue skies. The house itself is well stocked and easy to make feel like home. We cooked most of our meals using the kitchen and grill. From the comfy beds to the stylish common spaces, the deck to the hot tub, this is a great place to enjoy with friends and family.

Very nice property with extremely tasteful decor. As beautiful as everything is, it is more functional than comfortable. The seating areas around both TVs were super stylish, but not ideal as far as comfort goes. Same is true for the outdoor chairs. But…there's the hot tub to work out those kinks! Also, you may need the tub after the workout you'll get from walking up and down all those stairs! Not a property for the elderly or any other folks who can't easily climb stairs, that's for sure! But, for the rest…it's a great place to get some rest and relaxation. It is close to town, but seems far away (although you might hear highway noise). If the property was right on the river, it'd be AMAZING, but…we knew before we booked that it is a short drive (or medium walk) away from the water, so…wishful thinking. In any case, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Oh, and…the propane grill was awesome too!

I had a wonderful stay at Wanderwood - I could not have asked for a better Russian River getaway. Every aspect of the property was clearly well designed and thought out. Location: Super close to the main drag of Guerneville, Vacation Beach, and Sunset Beach (great proximity for floating down the river)House: The common spaces were perfect for a larger group. The two living rooms and large deck (with very trendy outdoor furniture) were great for lounging and barbecueing.Amenities: The laundry was helpful after a day out on the river. Everything was clean and well appointed. The jacuzzi was a main selling point for us and it lived up to our expectations - it was so cool to be surrounded by redwoods. I did notice some mosquitoes - I recommend some bug spray.

We spent a long weekend here and it was just absolutely beautiful and relaxing. The place is much bigger in person with plenty of space for the 5 of us and our puppy. It had two enclosed areas to keep him outdoors while being secured. The hot tub is just way too fabulous as you have redwood trees all around you that totally transport you somewhere magical. The kitchen is super well stocked with everything you need to grill outside on the great size grill. All the furniture is super comfortable and beautiful. We were so close to town so it was easy to go walking to get brunch close by and we also enjoy some tubing at the Russian River beaches close by. Can't wait to go back to this place!
