Cottage vacation rentals in Russian River

My husband and I spent 3 nights at the lodge for our one year wedding anniversary. It is located on the same property as their vineyard which makes for a beautiful, serene view and setup. During our stay, we did a very personal wine tasting with David in the main house. It truly is a cool experience and unlike any other wine tasting I have done before, not to mention the wine was very good! The lodge itself is cozy and relaxing with a private back patio looking into the trees and nature. I wasn’t so sure about the outdoor shower at first but it was actually really nice! Water warmed up really fast and the view is amazing. The bed is located upstairs which was very comfortable and cozy with plenty of pillows and blankets. If you have trouble with mobility, the stairs leading to the bedroom are not easy to navigate and there are more stairs from the parking lot to the lodge with some uneven ground at times. If you are fine with stairs and some walking, it is well worth it!

Wonderful, relaxing, long weekend! Super-cute place with a lot of charm and really well-equipped kitchen. Thank you so much!

This is a charming place, beautifully kept with lovely furnishings. We really enjoyed the well appointed kitchen as we cooked every day. The yard and gardens are beautifully kept, peaceful and serene. Oranges growing right outside the house! We were in town for a wedding, and Santa Rosa is right in the middle of so many enjoyable things to do. We hiked on the CCT out past Bodega Bay, enjoyed restaurants in Healdsburg, visited the redwoods and shopped at the Barlow in Sebastopol. Thank you Cheryl for sharing your lovely home. We had a fabulous time!

This was a perfect spot for a personal retreat. I loved everything from the decor to the comfy bed to the private hot tub and well tended garden. I would love to come back again.

Super cute little spot. Walking distance to Sonoma Plaza and it had a private hot tub. Good distance from some vineyards and wineries as well!

This home is absolutely beautiful! The outside is gorgeous and relaxing. The outdoor patio and hot tub are amazing! The location is also fabulous. We went to the Bothe-Napa state park and the Castello di Amorosa both of which were only 15min away as is downtown Calistoga which is really cute. We really enjoyed our stay!! The only slightly problematic feature is the toilet, it doesn’t really work.

If you're planning an escape in the Duncan Mills area, this is the place you want to be. It is conveniently located as a great jumping off point for all the local area has to offer or provides the perfect place for relaxation and reflection if that's what you need. Karen is a super host and very responsive should anything arise. The amenities at the River cottage cannot be understated. From the stocked kitchen to outdoor decks and gardens complete with hot tub and outdoor soaking tub there is something for everyone. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to another visit in the future. Consider a stay at Mama K's River Cottage, you'll be glad you did.

Tami’s place was perfect for two people. We didn’t get to use the patio much due to cooler weather but we didn’t get to sit out some. Hot tub was great! We would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful place for our group to stay! The house was exactly as described, and everybody had plenty of space to themselves. The house was very clean and is located in a great spot in town.

Such a beautiful and peaceful retreat! Our dogs had a blast running around off leash on the hiking trail (the first part of the trail is steep but our dog with arthritis managed it just fine) and the house was incredibly well stocked and clean. Jeff and Trey were always very responsive and so friendly. I’m so glad this was our first trip with our newborn!

pleasant and cozy stay. definitely recommend to unwind and relax

Laying by the river on the deck with my two senior doggos was pure bliss!

This little cabin in the woods is exactly as presented. Unbeatable setting for nature lovers and those looking for a retreat from urban/suburban areas, yet still only 30 min from wine country and nearby towns. Would definitely stay again, and recommend to any who love how it presents in photos.

Joshua’s place was perfect. The home was beautiful and the surrounding area was great. The home is set back on a quiet street, which made enjoying the home so relaxing. I brought my two dogs who enjoyed sunbathing on the wrap around patio/deck and running around the yard. Would definitely recommend and hope to visit again!!

We had a wonderful time at Carolyn’s place. We loved spending a day on her deck overlooking the lake - so beautiful. We also took advantage of her fire table out front. She also had a sturdy fold out table for dining - we initially didn’t see it in the pictures but she actually had everything we needed to enjoy a full meal around a table. Bonus points that we could fold it away for more space when not using! Carolyn was also very responsive and checked in daily on how we were doing. Would love to come back!

The house was very comfortable and perfect for a family get away! I loved the proximity to the beach. She allows a dog which is great.

Just returned from a wonderful weekend at the cottage! This was the most ideal location, in walking distance to everything and a grocery store a stone throw away! The house was clean and comfortable, we would definitely recommend and are also excited to return. Thanks Marta for being such a responsive host!

This is a very relaxing getaway. The outdoor spaces are the star. The pool is deep and refreshing but not too cold. The hot tub is pristine and had a wonderful view of the trees and creek, so great to unwind in. The outdoor shower has multiple modes and good hot water. Unlike other places we’ve stayed there are outdoor towel hooks which is something many places don’t bother to include. Lovely creek views, nice landscaping, and soothing water sounds. Great deck with outdoor table, chairs, umbrella, grill. Really enjoyed being here. The cottage itself is charming and the kitchen well stocked. The bathroom was the one minor disappointment in an otherwise lovely property, it was clean but dated. The fireplace is wonderful to curl up in front of and read and the view of stars at night was wonderful. Dream Sonoma left snacks and wine which made for a great movie night. Well located to Sonoma restaurants and attractions. Overall a very nice place to spend a weekend!

Enjoyed our stay here. Felt safe with the gated entrance. Location's great about a 12 minute drive to Healdsburg. Great space layout and enjoyed the fireplace in the living room.

Great place!! Easy to find and felt nice and peaceful and secluded even though there are houses around. It had everything we needed to relax for a couple days!! Super nice fenced in back yard. Beautiful home!! Would definitely pick this place to stay if through the area again!!

The house feels like a cabin in the woods--it is quiet with a view of the river and thousands of stars above. We loved the wood-burning stove, the hot tub, and the cozy wood living room. It was close to downtown Healdsburg but felt like a mountain getaway.

Quaint cottage in Calistoga with coffee and restaurants within walking distance. Easy checkin and communication with the host. The room was clean and had a fire place and spa sized bath tub. We would definitely consider booking here again on our next trip to Calistoga.

We had a wonderful stay. The house is a bit rustic, but it was comfortable and had nice touches. The view of the lake and sunrise through the skylights in the master bedroom was memorable. The hot tub was also great - enclosed to keep bugs out and make it feel private. Overall, a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

My favorite place to stay up here! Super cute and clean! Comfy beds! Just perfect!
