Further details for this vacation cottage rental in Russian River, California

Outside Area: Outside “Far Reaches’” front door you’ll find a flagstone patio area, a wonderful spot to sip coffee in the early morning. A corridor leads past a gas barbeque grill where you can cook dinner or even all of your meals. Further, the flagstone leads to a large outdoor shower area. The shower has three heads and is a main attraction for guests no matter what the temperature outside. The property’s large redwood deck wraps around half the cottage and is covered with teak furniture for lounging and outdoor living as well as dining. Outdoor heat lamps help keep the area cozy on crisp evenings. A fireplace chiminea and fountain provide a lovely ambiance. Also on the deck you’ll find the garden house, imported from England, which serves as a third bedroom. Walk through the Balinese door and along the bamboo-laden pathway to the yard area. Pass by the stone temple gates where you’ll come across the Meditation Pavilion, a cozy covered bed with pillows and a perfect spot to relect quietly.

Inside Far Reaches: Indoor you’ll find a warm, comfortable, cozy and attractive cottage that you’ll enjoy calling home for your stay at the Russian River. Soft creamy colors combine with periwinkle and natural pine wood to create a soothing atmosphere. The main room has 2 sofas, a small office alcove with a desk and a dining table for 4. The kitchen is fully equipped and the favorite room of some renters. Besides the customary refrigerator and gas stove/oven, there is also a dishwasher, microwave, coffeemaker, toaster, blender, small food processor, rice cooker as well as general cookware and dishes. Filtered water is provided at the tap Further amenities in the home include a washer and dryer, Comcast cable, a DVD player and VHS player.

Come Visit Us: Come visit and enjoy the tropical touch and exotic beauty of the island of Bali. Elaborate hand-carved teakwood doors, stone temple gates, a small garden pond and fountains await your visit. We chose to christen the property “Far Reaches” due to the Balinese influence imprinted upon the property. Swaying bamboo, colorful bougainvillea and seasonal begonias mix and mingle with fragrant honeysuckle and Jasmine on the grounds of this one-of-a-kind property. Come, forget your cares, sip Chardonnay in nearby wineries, picnic along the rugged Sonoma coast or just slowly meander through an ancient Redwood Forest. Travel to an enchanted get-away you’re sure to remember fondly. Come to relax, rejuvenate and replenish. Come to “Far Reaches.

Review Submitted: September 27, 2003 Date of Stay: September 2003
Hello, I used to live in Monte Rio on Highland Terrace at a house called Pinetops. I think it was just a few houses from your vacation rental. It was one of the nicest experiences that I have ever had and I have lived in some pretty special places. So it's no wonder visitors to your cottage just love it. Now I am a photographer of vacation rentals on the island of Kauai. Even though paradise is wonderful, I still miss my time in Monte Rio, it's the greatest!
Owner's Response: Thanks for the comment Steve! I have to admit, it is a peaceful area that just makes all your cares just fall away.

We didn't want to leave...

ElizabethRB Brooklyn, NY
Review Submitted: September 8, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We truly enjoyed our stay at the beautiful cottage, Far Reaches. We appreciated the serenity and the silence of the area was so soothing we were really sorry to leave. Far Reaches is the most well thought out cottage we've ever stayed in. From the moment we booked Far Reaches, the owner’s attention to detail was absolutely amazing.

We loved using the terrycloth robes that were left for us to go back and forth to the sauna. We used the lavender aromatic oil in the sauna for an even greater level of relaxation. The outdoor shower (with 3 heads) was an experience. The books in the gift basket helped us navigate the area and plan our days.

The decor was so amazing we felt like we were in another world once we passed through the gates. Although we knew we had neighbors, we really didn't feel like they existed, we felt so secluded and away from it all. This is truly a place for total relaxation.

Our only complaint was that we had to leave but we hope to return again soon. We will definitely recommend this lovely cottage to our friends when they plan a visit to the Russian River area.

Hi Kent I wanted to make sure you know how
grateful my 3 girlfriends and I are for the peaceful
space you've created & are sharing at Far Reaches.
We arrived all quite stressed & it immediately
started to melt away among those redwood trees
and the peaceful energy in and around the home.
The gift basket was such a nice touch. We really
enjoyed your CD collection and our favorite feature
is that 3 headed out door shower. I slept in the
meditation hut & I pray blessings over the hands
that created that space that helped re energize me.
I came home so refreshed and raving about Far
Reaches to any one who will listen. I plan to return
with my husband for a romantic getaway. I saw the
before and after pictures and it's just amazing to
me to think that some creative soul came up with
and carried out the creation from ordinary to
extraordinary. I seriously felt like I was in Bali!
Thank you so much
Owner's Response: How Wonderful! Guests' positive responses, such as yours, is what makes this little business so fulfilling. Thank you!

This hide-a-away paradise was just what I needed. Peace and quiet, except for the lovely chip of birds and a dog bark. The outdoor shower gives a morning shower a whole new freshness--a totally freeing/joyful feeling!

We loved Goat Rock Park/Beach...saw a male Elephant Seal there!! Still have a
few more things to do on your list of suggestions, so hopefully we'll be back!!

Thank you. This place is the best.

We always have a great time at the cottage everytime we visit. While it's nice just to get away from the hassle of the City, we especially love going down to the ocean at Bodega Bay on the backroads. What a beautiful ride. Or spending the afternoons wine tasting at all the boutique wineries so close by. What a treat to relax and BBQ after an intense day of sipping. Thanks "Far Reaches" for all the wonderful memories.
