Description

Blackberry Bliss is a tranquil, romantic, and well-appointed vintage cabin on the banks of lovely Austin Creek - a setting of breathtaking beauty. Built in 1954 and lovingly restored and updated, the house features a private creekside beach and sunny, level backyard meadow. Blackberry Bliss's 1,000 sq ft redwood deck includes a private outdoor hot tub, custom oversized redwood chaise lounges, dining bistro, and additional seating delivers views of the creek, yard, flowers, and trees, including the majestic redwoods. At night, you'll rejoice in the privacy of magical moon and star-filled nights.

Inside, you’ll find vaulted open wood beamed ceilings, French doors that seamlessly bring the outdoors in, custom finished redwood detailing, and live-edge pass through bar. Blackberry Bliss is artistically furnished including an eclectic collection of both local and international art and artifacts.

Blackberry Bliss is minutes from Guerneville, the Sonoma Coast/beaches, and nearby historic Russian River towns, including Duncan's Mills, Jenner, and Bodega Bay - with great restaurants, wine tasting, golf, and fun shopping.

Charming, comfortable, well appointed

A delightful getaway spot. The redwoods can be chilly in the evening, but there is a precious little woodstove with all of the firewood and other supplies provided. If you don't want to fiddle with that there's also a separate gas-powered heating stove, as well as plenty of space heaters. But the woodstove alone was just right for us.

Hummingbirds in the morning

River Homes’s was a magical experience. Surrounded by Redwoods and a cute creek behind was amazing. Hummingbirds in the morning just made the Sonoma County leg of our trip that much better. Beach activities just 30 minutes away, but still able to get to Sonoma/Napa in less than 2 hours. But staying outside of the normal tourist trap areas made it worth every minute. We came to California for our 5-year anniversary and River Homes’s made us fall in love with nature. When you come, check out Armstrong Woods! -via Airbnb

Hello Ricardo, Thank you so much for the great review and for being such amazing guests. We all loved hosting you and are thrilled you enjoyed your stay. We would host you again any time :)

I wish we could have stayed longer! This house among the redwoods is special. Easy access to main roads, and even with neighbors very private. The hot tub in evenings looking up at the sky and stars through the trees was memorable. As soon as we opened the car doors, I could smell the redwood trees. The house was clean and comfortable and had many conveniences. It was perfect. Thank you to the owners for opening up their special home to us. Just a note, it was chilly in the house when we arrived at night mid-October, but warmed up nicely inside. Life is about making memories. -via Airbnb

What a stunning place and cozy cabin. The hummingbirds flitting around all day were just such fun to watch. It is pretty quiet but the neighbors are close and I could hear them talking and laughing quite a bit which is fine but I really love the quiet of nature. Overall though, the yard is big and the creek is magical. The cabin had such a magical vibe. I'd definitely stay again. -via Airbnb

Beautiful location on Austin Creek and underneath the Redwoods. Close to Guerneville, Duncan Mills, the Coast. Well-stocked kitchen. Beautiful deck and private beach area on creek. Expansive, sunny lawn. Home itself is functional, with issues: because it’s right under redwoods it’s cold and dark all day; dining area is small, dark, and cold in what should be the entry foyer; the decor is excessively cluttered and dated; main issue was the too much too soft, too lumpy beds. We had terrible nights’ sleep and were tired most of our stay because of it. The management company was extremely responsive and sensitive to our concerns but in the end, they couldn’t exactly provide new mattresses on the spot. -via Airbnb

Manager's Response

Hello Nelson, We are sorry you had issues with the beds at the home. The owner did get a new mattress topper to firm up the king bed as the other topper was found to be lumpy. The home gets a good amount of sun during the day but by the afternoon is shaded which is quite nice in the summer months! Especially without air conditioning. We thank you for being such wonderful guests and would love to host you again, perhaps at another home.

extremely charming and comfortable

We booked this cabin for a weekend getaway to celebrate our anniversary. It's extremely charming and comfortable, in a beautiful setting surrounded by redwood trees. We especially liked the large deck and yard overlooking a stream, the quiet neighborhood, the wood burning stove, the reliable internet, and the hot tub. The kitchen is well stocked and management is very responsive (though be advised that AT&T cell service doesn't work out here). We would suggest some improvements: 1) The main (king) bedroom doesn't have a door to block it from the living room, so be aware that there's a potential lack of privacy, as well as a lot of light. We also found the bed uncomfortable, as it was very soft and had pronounced lumps and body indentations. 2) If you prefer a dark room for sleeping, bring an eye mask—some windows don't have coverings. 3) The second (queen) bedroom had a better (if still soft) bed, but it was covered with dog hair on our visit. Overall, a good place though! -via Airbnb

Manager's Response

Hello Jason, Thank you for your review and for the suggestions! We have forwarded these items to the homeowner and our maintenance team for review. We are so sorry about the dog hair in one of the beds and appreciate you bringing it to our attention the moment you found it so we could contact the cleaner. We thank you for being communicative and overall amazing guests. We hope to have a chance to impress you in the future!

We spent a week in December at Blackberry Cabin and could not have been happier with our choice. The cabin was clean, and comfortable and provided all the necessities. We spent most of our time on the deck enjoying the amazing Redwoods and hot tub. The hummingbirds were quite entertaining! We grilled out every night, then cozied up in front of the wood fireplace. Thank you so much for providing everything needed for a peaceful, relaxing getaway. We will definitely stay again!

We had a lovely stay! Right away, we noticed the swarm of hummingbirds that danced and fought over the feeders. Was fascinating. The creek is accessible and we spent some time hiking up the creek until we found the road again. This place is situated just right so that the afternoon sun hits the deck. It's an ideal spot for a double couple get-away or maybe a small family. Kitchen was well stocked and pleasant to use. Plenty of options for climate control if you want to be cozy. The hot tub was perfect and easy to operate. There were what looked like mosquitos outside but we never got bit. A very serene and quiet place that we would definitely revisit.-via Vrbo

We do lots of traveling with our little pups - this place was HANDS DOWN the best ever. I almost don't want to leave a review in case it gets too booked up. We go to the Russian River area often but this was first time in Cazadero. We didn't want to leave the house- the deck(s), the view(s), the 360 degree redwood trees, the sound of the creek, and the hummingbirds dive bombing us, made us feel like we had found a piece of heaven. Our dogs didn't want to leave. We had to grab them by the collar to get them back in the car. Can't say enough about the Russian River Vacation Homes staff - they were friendly, very helpful, and a pleasure to deal with. We've already booked a second trip - can't wait to return.

This is a beautiful little house in the woods with direct river access (Austin Creek) from the backyard. Unfortunately it rained for our entire stay and the first night we even lost power because of the storm in the area. We realized that if you lose power you also lose water as the water pump needs electricity to run. There is also no cell phone reception either so we had to drive to Guerneville to be able to place calls. Without running water we considered to pack our things and head back home but luckily power and water came back at around 4pm that day. It kept raining throughout our stay but the house kept us cozy and warm. We were able to take some short walks outdoors and the place is beautiful. I could tell how amazing this place would be if we had better luck with the weather. Even with our trouble with the storm we enjoyed our stay! If you are looking for a quiet private getaway in the woods I highly recommend this place.-via VRBO

We (hubby & wife) had a wonderful 9 day stay. This is our 4th vacation rental in Cazadero and one of the best. What differentiates a good vacation rental from an amazing vacation rental - the small things. This place covered all the big things perfectly: clean, represented accurately, good communication, well stocked, etc. But what took it above and beyond were things like the wonderful linens - both towels and bed sheets; the sharp knives (oh how we hate dull knives); non stick pans that are actually non stick; a robust wifi that allowed us both to work (both of us have an abundance of online meetings); and clear instructions placed around the home. It’s these little things that make staying in a home that’s not yours so much nicer. The pictures and description make you excited to go, the little things make you so happy you did.-via Airbnb

The house was very clean and cozy and it was fully equipped with everything you could need. It had all kitchen equipment, shower products and even a full first aid kit. I had a couple questions during my stay and River Homes was so responsive and kind. We will definitely be back!

Wow, what a fun weekend we had a Blackberry Bliss. It was a fun adventure, the cabin is so adorable, well stocked, well kept, much loved sweet paradise in Caz!! I am in love with this cabin and you can tell the owners also do too! Such nice touches throughout, everything in the house was working in perfect condition. The cabin has so many places to look at the amazing majestic redwoods. We were there when the lightning started at 3:00 am and it was so cool to watch from the bedroom slider. Also, Russian River Vacation Homes is so easy and welcoming. I have always used them instead of VRBO as I prefer brick and mortar business'. Very clean cabin, we can't wait to book our next adventure at Blackberry Bliss. Thank you to the owners for allowing us to enjoy your gem!

Blackberry Bliss is the perfect cabin for a couples getaway. The cabin itself has everything you'd need and has a warm, inviting country feel to it. The outside deck is amazing for relaxing, listening to the creek and generally soaking up the peaceful sounds of nature. You can also walk through the beautifully kept garden and head on down to the creek, where you find a little rocky beach with some chairs. Another perfect spot for relaxing! All in all, this little cabin gave this weary urbanite couple a perfect vacation amongst the redwoods. We will DEFINITELY be back!
