The Barn: Secret Garden in the redwoods, hot tub, walk to river | House in Villa Grande

Nestled in the historic hamlet of Villa Grande, this two story cottage has a forested, off the beaten path vibe, and is walking distance to a beautiful secluded beach on the Russian River. It’s a 5 minute drive to Downtown Monte Rio, 10 minutes from Guerneville and Occidental and a stone's throw from the coast, towns, and wineries that Sonoma has to offer. Great for work (high speed internet) or play. Access to a kayak in summer.
The house is simple and cozy. The two bedrooms (one upstairs, one downstairs, each with a connected bathroom) have queen-sized mattresses (hybrid and memory foam), and blackout shades.
We have a huge couch with plenty of room for everyone to cozy up for movie nights or sports games (or sleeping - it converts into two queen beds, though note there are limited window coverings in the living room). Alternatively in summer months guests may choose to sleep on the twin over full bunk bed on the porch, but note that the space is not insulated and can get cold at night. It's too cold for sleeping in the winter months.
We have high speed internet and 65" television. There is big patio and garden for relaxing outside, a picnic table for outdoor dining, a propane grill and a spa. Though it is surrounded by redwoods, the property gets sun throughout most of the day, a rarity in the area. If you’re more of an indoor kid, the house comes stocked with puzzles, board games, and paper backs. Curl up on the couch in front of the soaring second floor window and get lost in a good story.
