Great property - new, clean and well accomdated.

We had a great stay - the beds were small but comfortable. The stairs are a little hard to manage with small children and elderly but otherwise great - and you can access from the outside. Great kitchen, A/C, and walking distance to the amazing Hacienda beach. Perfect distance to the wine country, Thanks!

The outdoor area was great and it was nice that there was a propane fire pit and grill for use. The upstairs of the house is perfect for a group setting with its open floor plan. Location is great. Easy to get to the coast and the wineries. Only downside to the house was the bathrooms. There are no bathrooms upstairs in the main area. The bathroom with a tub is tiny and hard to move around it. Beware, the tub is super slippery too. The bathroom with a shower is bigger so you can actually move a bit, but man that shower is tiny. I am by no means a big person and I could barely cram myself into the shower. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would stay again.

Sweet Little House

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful stay at this charming house tucked away in the hills of the Russian River Valley. The area offers a wealth of activities, and the house itself is well-equipped to meet your everyday needs. It also has a great selection of games, both inside and out, perfect for relaxing moments. Our only minor issue was with the beds—they were comfortable for a night, but we found them a bit challenging for a longer stay of four nights. Overall, it was a delightful retreat!
