Guerneville Dog-Friendly Redwood Retreat with Hot Tub & Pool

Your dogs stretch out on the multi-level deck while you ease into the hot tub beneath the redwoods. This contemporary 3-bedroom home sleeps 6 and offers both a hot tub and pool for endless relaxation. Just 500 feet from the Russian River and steps from Rio Nido Roadhouse, you're perfectly positioned between forest adventures and river fun. The redwoods are calling — and this modern sanctuary in the trees is your answer.

Warm oak floors flow through this bright Guerneville home where soft grays, earth tones, and pops of blue create a calming retreat designed for gathering.

A striking stone fireplace with multi-colored tile surround anchors the space. You'll sink into the brown sectional with blue pillows to stream favorites on the Apple TV, or gather at the glass dining table by the fire. The chef's kitchen showcases cherry wood cabinetry, light stone countertops, and subway tile with pendant lights over the center island. A gas range, dishwasher, and full-size refrigerator handle any culinary ambition.

OUTDOOR LIVING
The expansive multi-level deck sets this property apart. Colorful furniture creates distinct gathering zones. Fire up the gas grill, retreat to your private hot tub under its gazebo cover, or sway in the hammock between towering redwoods. The deck overlooks the pool (check with your host for current access details).

SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS
Three bedrooms each feature a queen bed, ceiling fan, and smart TV with Apple TV. The first welcomes with blue-accented white bedding, the second layers gold tones, and the third offers a gray palette with a chaise lounge. Total capacity: 6 guests.

Sink into the private hot tub on the multi-level deck under the gazebo, then catch the kids at the shared community pool a short walk away. The whole home is yours, dogs welcome, with a gas fireplace, a stone fireplace under colorful tile, BBQ, and a hammock among the trees. Punch in the keypad code at the door; up to three cars total — one compact in front, two tandem in back.

You're tucked into the Rio Nido community of Guerneville, where redwoods meet the Russian River. The Rio Nido Roadhouse is literally at your doorstep (0.0 mi) — grab a bite at their restaurant or enjoy their seasonal pool for a daily fee. Just around the corner, The Bar and Cafe at The Rio Nido Lodge (0.1 mi) offers another dining option steps away. The Russian River awaits just 500 feet from your door — walk left on Canyon Seven Road toward the Roadhouse, then take the under-road walkway at Canyon Two Road to reach the water. Your dogs will love exploring Bruno Farnocchia Dog Park (0.2 mi), while The Farmhand (0.5 mi) serves excellent coffee and breakfast. Downtown Guerneville's vibrant scene is 1.6 miles away, where you'll find boon eat + drink for elevated dining, Baked on the River for morning pastries, and Coffee Bazaar Cafe for your caffeine fix. Stock up on groceries at Safeway (1.8 mi) or grab essentials at MD Liquor and Food 8 (1.6 mi).

Guerneville is about 90 minutes from San Francisco via 101 and River Road — a scenic drive through vineyards and into the redwoods. You'll have three parking spaces: one in the front driveway (compact cars only) and two tandem spots behind the home. The seasonal Regional Parks River Shuttle runs weekends in summer between Forestville and local beaches if you want to leave the car behind for river adventures. A car makes the Russian River Valley easy to explore, from redwood trails to riverside wineries. Cell service gets patchy in the redwoods, so downloading offline maps before you arrive is worth it.

This property features security cameras — one at the front entry and one overlooking the back deck/hot tub area. You can turn off the back camera using the switch by the back door for complete privacy. The home stays naturally cool thanks to the redwood canopy and forest breezes — you'll find ceiling fans in every room help circulate the fresh air. While there's no air conditioning, most guests find the shade and cross-ventilation keep things comfortable even on warmer days. Your dogs (2 maximum, under 35 lbs each) will love the fully fenced areas of the deck. Note that while Armstrong Redwoods is nearby, dogs can only enjoy the paved areas, not the trails — but the Russian River and local parks offer plenty of dog-friendly adventures. The hot tub is professionally maintained and ready for stargazing through the redwood canopy. The WiFi is reliable for streaming and remote work, though cell service can be spotty throughout the valley — consider it a digital detox opportunity!

You must be 21 years or older to rent this property.
