Photos and Description of the Monte Rio vacation private home rental
Light and airy, this stylish home for two features stunning river views and great river access to a sandy beach, shared with Grandma's House next door. A canoe is included during the summer season. Jujube has a hot tub on a river -front deck as well as a Weber barbecue, outdoor furniture, and a chiminea for cool evenings.
This lovely cabin is beautifully furnished with some wonderful art and decorative touches. The living room features a free-standing wood-burning fireplace and a queen sleeper. The bedroom, with its antique double bed, has a great feeling of intimacy. The beautiful tiled bathroom includes a tub/shower combination. Everything in this house is updated and of high quality.
Jujube's location is very convenient: an easy walk to downtown Monte Rio with its restaurants, bars, grocery stores, video rental, and Rio Theater, four miles to Guerneville, and about a 15 minute drive to the coast.
The queen sleeper is to allow two different sleeping spaces and an alternative to the double bed. The house is strictly limited to two people, including small children. Note: although river access is good, it is not recommended for those with physical disability or infirmity.

Forestville is most convenient to wineries, Sebastopol, and Santa Rosa, followed by Guerneville and Monte Rio.
There is little difference in temperature between Guerneville and central Monte Rio. Forestville will be slightly warmer, while Duncans Mills and Cazadero will be slightly cooler. There is no air-conditioning here (with a few exceptions): the ocean breezes provide natural cooling at night and homes in warmer areas have fans. The Northwood golf course area is 2 - 3 miles west of Guerneville and, although this is technically Monte Rio, these homes are as close to Guerneville as they are to central Monte Rio.
Duncans Mills is close to the ocean, with some marine influence, yet still enjoys warm, sunny days in the summer.
Cazadero is redwood forest, with an all-year creek running through it; in general the most secluded homes will be found here.
Homes along the river are generally not as private as the homes along the creeks or in the forest, although there are exceptions. The river homes are rarely fenced and most will have some small degree of road noise since River Road, running along the river, is the main artery for the area. We do have some river homes free of all road noise. If this is a major issue for you, please ask us.
There is a 24-hour Safeway and a health food store in Guerneville and smaller markets in Forestville and Monte Rio, as well as a general store in Cazadero. On Hwy 166 north of Sebastopol, Andy's Market is worth a stop. There are video rentals in all towns except Duncans Mills. Guerneville has bicycle rentals. The best shopping is in Guerneville and Duncans Mills.
Boat rentals are in Guerneville, Monte Rio, and Duncans Mills. Boating depends upon river and weather conditions and many homes with boats have seasonal docks. We cannot guarantee boating will be possible or safe anytime other than mid-June through mid-September.
