Sunny, Fenced, Views - Life in Drakes Beach unfolds outdoors and this flexible two-level River retreat makes it easy for everyone to have their own space while staying connected to the adventure. From its vaulted ceilings to its serene picture windows framing vineyard and ridge-top views, this home captures the effortless romance of the Russian River lifestyle. The separate upper and lower living spaces are perfect for your extended family who want independence or for visiting friends to come for a weekend. Imagine mornings that begin with filtered light through the trees and evenings that end with friends gathered around the fire pit after a day exploring West County wineries and coastal trails. Host dinner parties beneath the gazebo canopy, roast some marshmallows while sharing stories of old - these are the experiences that create magical traditions to last a lifetime. Located in a friendly, recreation-rich neighborhood, this setting encourages both connection with nature and the people you love most. This is the kind of place where wine tastes better, conversations last longer, and the connection runs deeper. Close to Downtown Guerneville, you are moments to great food and nightlife, plus easy access to world-class wineries and the stunning Sonoma Coast. Raised above flood with abundant storage for kayaks, bikes, and gear, this home is specifically designed for those who measure time - not by months on a calendar - but by river seasons filled with wonderment and joy.
