Grandma's House has seven large rooms including a very large kitchen, a large living room with fireplace, and a games room. Three bedrooms have King beds, one with a queen bed. there is also a sofa bed in the game room, 4 full bathrooms (en suite).

A canoe, two kayaks, paddle boat, as well as numerous water toys stored in a room on the lower level under the house are ready for a fun filled summer day on the river.
Sleeping Arrangements:
Two bedrooms each have a california king bed and a sofa bed. These two rooms have a view of the river and access to the main back decks. Two rooms on the garden side of the house have kitchenettes.

The spacious kitchen is fully equipped with most every kitchen gadget imaginable to prepare delicious homemade meals like Grandma used to make! The charming decor is reminiscent of your Grandma's house, with handmade quilts, Bluewillow china, etc. The living area reminds you of Grandpa's hunting lodge.
The house is in a quiet neighborhood but is walking distance to a few shops and restaurants in Monte Rio. The town of Guerneville is 5 miles away. There is an award-winning 9-hole golf course roughly one mile away, a redwood park for hiking, and many fine Sonoma county wineries in close proximity. The river meets the ocean about 10 miles away in the town of Jenner.
Take a kayak right from your own dock or spend the day at one if the beaches on the property and then relax in the hot tub later that evening. Or, sip a glass of wine on the deck and watch the river go by. Come and be spoiled at Grandma's House!

Summary: Stunning property! Kitchen extremely organized and complete with all items needed to prepare our Thanksgiving feast. Steve had cleared the property of rain debris and managed to coax the sun into a full glorious display.

Summary: We go to the Russian River a lot and this would be one of the best places that we have stayed at. The location could not be better and the space provided fit our family perfectly. The highlight I would have say was the rope swing that was across the river on the other side.

Summary: We (two families with older children) had a wonderful time at Grandma's. The place is laid out very nicely to accommodate two families, the kitchen is big and well-equipped, and the grounds are beautiful. The location right on the river is superb. The kids loved the rope swing on the opposite shore and everyone enjoyed the various watercraft. The only issue we had was that the beds could be made more comfortable with an upgrade of at least new mattress protectors (they are lumpy) and a variety of pillows (we needed thinner ones). We are hoping to come back and can definitely recommend this place for a summer getaway.

Summary: Our extended family of 9 had plenty of room to spread out inside and out. 4 convenient en suite bed/bath rooms. Extra large eat in kitchen with all the equipment needed to feed a crowd River out the back door with boating and floating equipment. Eclectic decor with plenty of surprises to investigate. Above 90 temps weren't even a problem, as the house stayed cool and comfortable.

Summary: We enjoyed our time at this location very much. Beach access and privacy were highlights for sure. I also appreciated how many bathrooms there are- no waiting! The kitchen is very well stocked. A few things that need work: when we arrived at checkin time, the house was still being cleaned. It wasn’t that big of a deal; we just walked down to the river but I think our presence rushed the cleaning staff. The bed my husband and I used did have a sandy feel. I know it is probably tough to get rid of it all, but that was a bit uncomfortable. The ice maker was visibly dirty. The kayaks and canoes were very fun but were not in 100% working order with missing seats/straps for seating. I would suggest getting rid of the small table in the kitchen and replacing it with pantry storage. We didn’t have a lot of room to put our purchased food that didn’t go in the refrigerator. There were a few ants here and there as well. Overall, this is an excellent property, beautiful grounds, and a spacious vacation spot I would recommend.
