About the River: Roughly May-October, the River is gentle, with very little white water, warm enough to swim. Water levels can vary greatly, especially in June and September. Roughly November-April, the River is very swift, deep, and muddy, not considered safe for swimming or boating. Depending on rainfall, beaches are more or less underwater. Rivers are dynamic, changing over the course of the season and year to year. Russian River levels depend upon a complex integration of upstream dams at Lake Mendocino and Lake Sonoma, summer dams at Healdsburg and Guerneville, tidal influences, County water flow decisions and drought conditions. River water is generally clean and safe to swim in, tested frequently by the County. However, if River-based water activities are in your plans, please use caution and search for the Sonoma County Health Department’s most recent recommendations for safe river use on the Sonoma County website. We cannot guarantee water conditions, or river levels, river access or frontage conditions at any time of year in any location. Photos of the River are not necessarily representative of the conditions concurrent with your stay.

Reviews

Our Host Harman was excellent. He communicated with us regularly regarding any questions, or just to see how we were doing. We were in Guerneville for a galfriend 4-night stay. The home is so comfortable and well appointed, with unexpected amenities and care in every room. The outdoor green space and river is beautiful (shared a 1st time kayaking experience). The vignette seating on the patio is perfect for intimate conversation and also allowed for group fun. The home location was perfect. We were able to visit the Russian river, Goat Rock Beach, Armstrong Redwoods, and Korbell Champagne Cellars during our stay. We would definitely return again! There is still more to do and enjoy in the area and we’d love to visit earlier in the summer to take advantage of the property’s river access and amenities fully. NOTE: We were so happy about our experience with Harman, we plan to look at his other properties for potential future adventures.
This is a wonderful place to getaway for a weekend! I highly recommend it. The home is so well appointed – they’ve truly thought of everything to ensure a comfortable and fun stay.
We have a wonderful weekend with family all together. The home has everything, we really enjoyed ourselves. Hope to be back many times!
