The Perfect View

5
(5.0 Average)

Description

New Photos Coming!!! The twin bunkbeds have been replaced with a Queen bed!

Families love The Perfect View! It's centrally located in Monte Rio - walking distance to public beaches, boat rentals, restaurants, small market, skate park, and playground - and overlooking the Russian River. And the views!!! You'll relish the play of light on the river and redwood covered mountains across the valley as well as the steady stream of wildlife living in and around the river: otters, herons, ducks, swallows, turtles, and a wide variety of fish including Coho, Chinook, and Steelhead.

The rear deck is the real gem - mostly covered for year round use - with a 2-person hot tub, gas BBQ, outdoor dining area, and additional seating. It's the perfect spot for breakfast or simply a cup of coffee while watching the fog burn off on a summer morning, relaxing throughout the day with a book, grilling up a storm for dinner and eating al fresco, followed by a soak in the hot tub. Hanging out at the house is effortless, but it's also a great jumping off point for day trips into the redwoods, the coast and along the river.

While The Perfect View is perfectly situated on the Russian River, there is not direct access to the river from the house. We recommend walking downriver a quarter mile to Dutch Bill Beach (no services) or walking/driving across the river to the Monte Rio Beach where, in the summer, you can rent canoes/kayaks/inner tubes and supplement your picnic with food at the concession stands.

The Perfect View is a hop, skip, and a jump to downtown Occidental - known for dueling, family-run Italian restaurants; an amazing seasonal farmer's market; and Howard Station Café - don't miss their breakfast.

Know Before You Book:

Parking: There is parking for 3 cars in front of the house. The garage is locked for storage. RVs, trailers and campers are prohibited, per the Sonoma County Vacation Rental Ordinance

Fencing: The yard is fenced to the road but open to the river. The river bank is exposed - please keep an eye on kids playing in the backyard.

Common Amenities not included: This home has an A/C unit in the kitchen that does a great job cooling the common areas of the house. There are ceiling and freestanding fans for the bedrooms.

Proximity to wineries: The Perfect View is just under 5 miles to downtown Guerneville and several tasting rooms in town. Westside Road - with a fantastic number of vineyards and tasting rooms - is about 10 miles from the house.

Nearest River Beach: While The Perfect View overlooks the river, it does not have direct access to the river or a beach. The Monte Rio Public Beach is slightly downriver and across the river. It's a half mile walk or drive. There is a closer beach on the same side of the river, a quarter mile walk, but it doesn't have boat rentals or concessions in the summer.

We absolutely love this place. It has everything you need for a relaxing vacation, and really does have the perfect view (We've stayed in several places on the river and this one is the best!) The rental company is really helpful and great to work with. The little store down the street has everything you need if you don't feel like trekking into Guerneville. Can't wait to come back again.

This place is awesome! My wife and I booked The Perfect View for a week during the “offseason” and absolutely loved it. The house was clean, comfortable and had great amenities. We loved grilling, hot tubbing and relaxing on the deck while overlooking the river and mountains. The weather was great during the day and cooled off at night, but the heating system in the house warmed us right up. The location is great as well. Easy access to the coast and all the great wineries in the area. We hiked at Salt Point State Park one day, went wine tasting the next and rented a kayak the following. We definitely plan to come back again.

We love this place so much! Have stayed there 2 separate weeks this year and both were great escapes. The view is the best in the area and I could spend all day lounging on the giant deck enjoying it. The kitchen is super well stocked with everything you need for cooking and there's a great store down the road if you forget any essentials. This last trip there was a giant spider on the wall by the bed one night but we didn't have any other issues! I just read that the county has purchased some of the nearby forest/creek land to create a new park, can't wait to come back and check that out.

Really loved our stay here. The views really are incredible- we didn't end up leaving the house much, mainly lounged on the well-shaded deck and read and enjoyed the views. The kitchen was really well stocked for cooking and the house had everything we needed to make our stay really comfortable. We'll definitely be back.

Just a few things to note- the wifi was spotty- not really what we came for but something to know if you're planning to work from here etc. The rental co said there had been issues with it in the area recently. There are also many dogs around here, and when one of them starts barking, the rest bark too! It was really just during the day though, nights were very quiet. There was also noise from the beach across the river on the weekend- people are not shy about blasting music. Glad we were up for a whole week- the weekdays were super quiet and peaceful.

We ended up here last minute, Thanksgiving weekend. Despite the rain, the location was perfect, and allowed us to easily travel around the region. Waking up to that view was amazing. Can't imagine how magical the place must be in summer.

The location was amazing -close to Monte Rio beach and walking distance from restaurants and stores. The house is comfortable and arranged around a beautiful deck overlooking the river with a hot tub. We enjoyed the redwood trees and would definitely come back.
