The Home

Families love The Perfect View! It’s centrally located in Monte Rio - walking distance to public beaches, boat rentals, restaurants, small market, skate park, and playground - and overlooking the Russian River. And the views!!! You’ll relish the play of light on the river and redwood covered mountains across the valley as well as the steady stream of wildlife living in and around the river: otters, herons, ducks, swallows, turtles, and a wide variety of fish including Coho, Chinook, and Steelhead.

The rear deck is the real gem - mostly covered for year round use - with a 2-person hot tub, gas BBQ, outdoor dining area, and additional seating. It’s the perfect spot for breakfast or simply a cup of coffee while watching the fog burn off on a summer morning, relaxing throughout the day with a book, grilling up a storm for dinner and eating al fresco, followed by a soak in the hot tub. Hanging out at the house is effortless, but...

The Neighborhood

Welcome to vacation wonderland! Monte Rio has a great dog friendly beach along the Russian River that has seasonal canoe rentals. Visit The Rio, an historic Quonset hut movie theater on the Russian River, including a cafe with great food and beer, and a sunny outdoor market on summer weekends. Monte Rio is home to the beautiful Northwood Golf Club, a 9 hold course amongst the redwoods designed by Alister MacKenzie, of Augusta fame. There is also a popular bar and restaurant on the golf course property. Monte Rio is just a short drive to the many Russian River Valley Wineries to the east, and is also a short drive west to the ocean where you’ll find scenic beaches and hiking trails. This is a great launch point for your outdoor and wine tasting adventures!

This is the maximum number of people (including children age 3 and up; infants age 2 and under do not count towards occupancy) that are allowed at the property at all times. The maximum occupancy for a vacation rental is mandated by the Sonoma County Vacation Rental Ordinance and is strictly enforced. In the event the maximum occupancy is exceeded, the Property Management Company (PMC) reserves the right to charge a minimum $1000 violation penalty, plus any costs incurred by the PMC and/or the property owner as a result of the ordinance violation, excessive wear and tear to the property, extra cleaning, and damages to the property and/or surrounding properties.

Although each property is completely equipped for rental purposes, we cannot accept responsibility for aesthetic conflicts.

When guests are unable to preview vacation home in person, guests accept such property as described and hold the agency harmless for any discrepancies upon taking occupancy.
