Know Before You Book:

Maximum Occupancy and Quiet Hours: The maximum occupancy at Creekside Lodge is 8 people not including kids under 3 years old. Quiet hours are from 10:00 pm until 7:00 am. Outdoor amplified sound is prohibited at all times.

Parking: There is parking for a maximum of 4 vehicles. RVs, trailers, and campers are prohibited, per the Sonoma County Vacation Rental Ordinance.

Bed Sizes: Bedroom 1: King bed; Bedroom 2: King bed; Bedroom 3: Queen bed; Bonus Room Downstairs: Two Queen futons.

Heat Source: Central heat.

Location: Creekside Lodge is in a residential neighborhood. It is a mix of permanent residents and vacation rentals, families, working folks, and visitors. To honor this balance, we ask guests to park in the driveway and respect the quiet hours in addition to general family-friendly, residential neighborhood expectations. Thank you for helping to continue the tradition of a mutually beneficial relationship between vacation rentals and local community!

Stairs: Creekside Lodge is 3 stories with interior stairs from the ground floor to the middle and upper floors. There is also an exterior staircase from the middle level to the backyard – ground level.

Pet Friendly: Creekside Lodge allows up to 2 well-behaved dogs.

Fencing: The backyard is fully fenced, but we recommend you check before allowing your dog off leash. The front yard is partially fenced and open to the road.

Austin Creek Access: This seasonal creek runs most of the year, but drought and storm conditions impact creek access and water levels. The water level in the creek changes quickly and it is difficult to predict what the water level will be for any specific time. In winter the path may be under water.

Common Amenities not included: This home does not have air conditioning. Being near the coast, the nighttime temps drop and just opening some windows is usually enough to cool the house overnight.

Proximity to wineries: There are tasting rooms in Duncan’s Mills approx. 3.5 miles from the house and Guerneville approx. 8 miles from the house.

Nearest River Beach: In the summer guests can pay a day use fee at Casini Ranch (approx. 3.5 mi) or go to the Monte Rio Public Beach (approx. 4.3 mi).

Nearest Ocean Beach: The coastal beaches in Jenner are approx. 7.5 mi.

Upon arrival at 4:02, the owner was just walking out of the house and getting into her car (from cleaning I assume), check in was at 4:00. We rolled our window down because at first we weren’t sure if that was the correct house given the fact that there was a car in the driveway. She asked us to move up a bit so she could get out of the driveway. We asked her if she was the owner and she said yes and then told us “and we have quiet hours.” Felt a little judged by that statement as we were already aware there were quiet hours. Not sure why she felt the need to tell us. It came across as very rude. The house itself is gorgeous! Lots of stairs so be prepared. But plenty of room for 8 guests. The hot tub was dirty, we had to wipe a film from around the edges that had built up and the water didn’t appear very clean. We also had to go fill up the propane as all 3 were out and we couldn’t use the fire pit or BBQ without it. Overall, even with the few minor issues we would stay here again-via Airbnb

Manager's Response

Hello Jennifer, We are so glad you enjoyed your stay! We are however surprised to hear about the interaction you had onsite and have talked to the individual who you spoke with. The hot tub was service before your arrival. We love being able to help guests with any issues or concerns they may have during the stay, and are sorry to hear about the lack of propane, typically there is a full tank attached to each amenities (firepit, bbq) and two full spare tanks. Thank you for your review! We would love to host you again in the future!

We absolutely loved this home, thank you! Beautiful, peaceful, and so many thoughtful details provided by our hosts. We made family breakfasts in the well-stocked kitchen, gathered 'round the propane fire pit laughing and telling stories, and relaxed in the clean hot-tub. Evenings we played games at the large wooden table as a chorus of frogs serenaded us from the nearby creek. Easy day trips from this perfect location... beaches, local towns, food, art, tea and coffee shops, wineries... Highly recommended!-via Airbnb

Creekside Lodge was just as wonderful as described. They have thought of everything a guest might want or need. Having the big redwood trees all around made it so beautiful. The water levels were very high so we were unable to enjoy the river. We had our 2 year old grandson with us so it was great to have the toddler bed and the booster seat. He also enjoyed the books. We would definitely stay again.-via Airbnb

Tons of space

Reviewed on 2023-03-24 by Brigitte Sanchez , Rohnert Park, Ca USA

This is a great house. Tons of space, so everyone can spread out, or be together. Even though it rained a lot during our visit, it was still very enjoyable. The creek is more of a river this year, so should be tons of fun in the summer. Appeared to be easy access to the creek. The yard is fenced, but please pay attention to the suggestion to check for openings. There are several areas where a small to medium, or eager large dog can easily get through. Hot tub was great, but needed a cleaning. Thinking it might have been skipped due to the terrible weather lately. House was well stocked, very comfortable and beautifully decorated. Beds were very comfortable. Be sure everyone in your party is capable of climbing stairs, even your dogs. The entryway stairs are not steep, but super slippery in socks. Outside stairs to yard are a bit steep, and slippery when wet. Stairs to third floor are pretty steep. Just something to be aware of and prepared for. There is a babygate in the closet that we used to block the opening of the stairs to the main floor. Definitely a concern with toddlers and overzealous dogs. Bottom level playroom was great for games, watching favorite shows on a huge tv and room for kids/dogs to release some energy indoors without fear of damaging anything. Showers were great, good water pressure. View of the creek and the trees is lovely. We visit the creek at least once a year, and Creekside will now be on our favorites list.

Manager's Response

Hello Bridgette, We are glad to hear you enjoyed your stay! Creekside is a wonderful place for a family to relax. We are surprised to hear about the hot tub, it was serviced before your stay and inspected/photographed before arrival and was clean and sparkly! The spa folks are great and don’t skip hot tub service – even for really, really bad weather!!! But, sometimes the aeration (itty bitty air bubbles) from the jets can make the water look cloudy. For future stays, if you have any issues or concerns with the home you can always call or email the office and we can check the service status and reach out to the tech. Thank you for you review and for being great guests.

We will definitely come back again.-via Airbnb

This home was a great choice for our weekend getaway. There were plenty of rooms and bathrooms for all eight of us to use comfortably. We enjoyed taking walks by the creek in the backyard and hanging out in the outdoor space. It was a huge plus that we were allowed to take our 2 dogs as well! The heater worked well throughout the whole house and kept us warm during the cold nights. The only compliant we had was the fire pit wasn’t working when we wanted to make s’mores and the ice from the fridge wasn’t dispensing. Other than that, we thank you for a great stay!-via Airbnb

Manager's Response

Hello Stephanie, We are so glad you enjoyed your stay at Creekside Lodge! We are sorry to hear about the ice maker and would have sent someone over to look at it as well as the firepit during your stay. We appreciate you letting us know and will have both attended to.

I grew up in this house from 77-85. My dad (now 88) remodeled the original two story cabin into the 3 story house that it is now. Our family names still visible on the concrete driveway was surreal to see after 45 years. We slept in my old room and I was able to reminisce and tell stories to my husband and friends. Many of my dads original ideas, touches and modifications are still present. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The kitchen has everything you need to cook or bake and it was very functional. We did not notice any wood or kindling for the outdoor fire pit. But the house had everything else you need and it was very comfortable. It felt like going home.-From prior management,VRBO

This 3 bedroom+1 bonus room was perfect for our recent family vacation. There were 7 adults and 1 child and it fit our needs perfectly! First off, the house was very clean upon arrival. The furnishings were up to date and the kitchen was well stocked with cooking equipment (they even have a Kitchen Aid mixer!). We cooked all of our meals at the house and had everything we needed. There is also a gas BBQ in the backyard which worked great. The backyard is beautiful! There is a fit pit (bring your own firewood) and you can sit amongst the redwoods. There is one picnic table plus a smaller one for kids. You can also access Austin's Creek from the backyard. When we visited in August, there wasn't a lot of water in the creek but my 6 year old skipped rocks and he could've splashed around in the water if he wanted to. It was also peaceful just to sit on the creek bed and listen to the small amount of water that was there. There is also a spa in the backyard that we used several times. A note about the bonus room - there are two ways to access it: one is through the garage and the second is through the backyard. There are two futons down there that can be turned into beds. There is also a toilet and sink down there next to the washer/dryer. The house is 15 minutes from Greenville and 20 minutes from Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Preserve. We thought this house was great and we would hands down stay here again!-From prior management,VRBO

This was probably one of the nicest Airbnb's we've stayed at so far. The property itself was beautiful and tastefully staged, there were ample supplies in every room for guests. The kitchen was well-stocked with most gadgets you could need (and a Kitchen aid mixer!) to make meals in house, while grilling food is also a wonderful experience with a picturesque overview of the nearby creek. The hot tub was well-maintained and easy to use-- it was a tight fit for 7 but we made it work. I can't say enough about this place... what a nice retreat!

Perfect place and perfect rental experience. This is a great house for up to 3 couples/families with (older) kids. Beds rank among most comfortable I've slept. Kitchen is well-stocked, living/dining area sized appropriately for the group, TV/wifi in good working order, right on the creek, nice outdoor space to hang out too (fire-pit, hot tub). It is fenced off, so dog will come next time. Whilst on the road, this is not a busy part of the region. We had pizza from Raymond's in Cazadero (5 minutes), went to Jenner, hiked Island in the Sky, baked goods from Duncan Mills (8 minute). We'll be back.-From prior management, Airbnb

Loved our stay. Unfortunately with the drought, the creek was quite low :( Everything was as advertised and the backyard and hot tub were incredible additions for a relaxing weekend. -From prior management, Airbnb

This place was great for us — 2 families with 4 adults, 1 toddler and a dog. It’s huge and we did not get to utilize the entire house. We didn’t need to worry about the house being too hot despite it being really warm out there since it was nestled in the redwoods and the kitchen was well stocked.- From prior management, via Airbnb
