Cozy cabin in the Redwoods

We enjoyed this well equipped and comfortable cabin. The property was fully fenced which was perfect for our two dogs. The owners were helpful with information about restaurants, hiking trails, and other points of interest. We would be happy to stay here again.

"Sweet" isn't just the Creek

What a gem! As others have said, the pictures really don't properly convey how much thought and labor have gone into the decor, layout, and small touches of this property. We are so thrilled to have brought the first cat to Sweet Creek. Our big 'ol Maine Coone loved exploring inside and out. And the gifts and card from Lorrie and Cookie were so sweet! We felt very spoiled for our anniversary- thank you! Some general notes for others: - there is a bit of road noise when outside, but the lovely sound of the creek helps a lot. - There are 4 stairs from the ground to the porch/door. Be aware for bringing stuff inside or those with mobility issues. - The "AC" is a window unit in the living room. It works really well in conjunction with the fans, but just adjust your expectations a bit. - The yard is fully fenced but if your animal is "small" or "medium," you'll want to keep them on a leash and supervised because the driveway gate is horizontal slat with large gaps. Also, they will want to explore under the raised porch, and you may have trouble getting them back out without a leash. - If you are a daytime napper, bring a sleep mask because the skylights allow for a lot of natural light. Great to see stars and the moon in bed at night, though! - Mattresses are firm. If you need a soft one, use the Sleep Number queen in the red room. - Sonoma Ziplines is 5 minutes away- SO AWESOME! We have been VRBO-ing for nearly a decade now and your home is definitely in our top five; Number 1 if we want to bring the cat again. Would stay again in a heartbeat! With Love, Kim, Scott, & Bandit

Wonderful stay in the woods near river and beaches

Steve and Lorri have a wonderful property located within easy access to all that Sonoma County has to offer. We enjoyed the large fenced yard where our two small dogs had free roam. As indicated in the amenities, there is a large BBQ, lounge chairs, outside tables to enjoy your meals, and the kitchen/supplies where enough to make meal prep easy. The small AC unit along with the overhead ceiling fans was enough to keep the house cool on the warmer (summer) days. At night with all the windows open a cool breeze kept the house pleasant. I would return to this property again and highly recommend it for anyone traveling to this delightful area.

Perfect for any time of year

We had a great stay at Lorri and Steve's place. The location was perfect, close to the river, beaches, and hikes. The cookies, coffee, and dog treats were super thoughtful. We had everything we needed and were very comfortable in the house. We would love to go back when the weather is a little warmer and make more use of the outdoor space.

Relaxing weekend

We had a wonderful time at this property. It was easy to find and in a very private area that was quiet and relaxing. It was exactly as stated in the description and my teenage kids enjoyed the outdoor space in the evenings with the barbecue grill and fire pit. Will definitely consider coming back for our next weekend getaway. Nice surprise treats for our little dog who enjoyed the outdoor space without me worrying if he would get lost since the property was all fenced and gated.

hospitality and charm!!

My family of five stayed in this rental for my birthday weekend. we were greeted with a hand written note and homemade cookies and treats for our furry child. Our children enjoyed the invitation to collect some pears from the tree in the yard. The location is listed as Monte Rio but comes up as Occidental in google maps. Just an FYI. The location was great and close to both the coast and the Russian River. The only thing I would say is that if you are staying with small children, there are lots of small decorative items, so we collected these and stored them on top of the refrigerator. We had a wonderful time and we would stay here again anytime!! Thank you so much to Steve and Lorri.

A lovely long weekend with friends

We were looking for a dog-friendly getaway in the Russian River area and found this home. It’s a great value for the price with three bedrooms and a cozy living room and large kitchen. We were able to cook at the home and used the grill several times, as well as the outside fire pit. It’s a short drive to the town of Monte Rio, the River, and many other local attractions and restaurants. The owners were extremely friendly and responsive! (We never met them only texted). Thank you for a great weekend!

Close to beaches and allowed 3 dogs

Location was a short drive to Bodega Bay. The owners allowed us to have our 3 dogs, which is hard to find a place that will do that. It was a nice place for our dogs to be free and not on a leash.

Monte Rio vacation

Great vacation at this great cabin outside of Monte Rio. All the amenities were available in this 3 bedroom cabin. Kitchen well equipped. Close to neighboring towns and about 10 miles from the ocean. Quiet location with creek bordering the property. Owners were very helpful in answering any questions i had. My dogs loved the fenced in yard; they did not have me on the other end of a leash. I would highly recommend this home if you are looking to stay in the Monte Rio/Guerneville/ Russian River area!

Nice getaway for 3

We appreciated excellent communication with owners and a well-appointed kitchen. It likely has everything you need for your stay. TV/WiFi - good connection. Beds comfortable. Baby gates available on the porch to keep your pups or kids from going down the stairs - nice touch! (FYI if you have mobility issues - only a few stairs to the front door). Our only negative is that the futon couch was really uncomfortable for hanging out/tv watching. Thanks for a nice getaway!

Steve and I are so pleased to share a chunk of paradise with you. The Russian River area is such a great place for family,friends and especially for furry companions. We lived in San Francisco and Pacifica before finding our way here to Sonoma County. We have always had a pack of dogs and a few cats to keep it more fun and furry. We know how hard it can be to vacation with a mixed family and now we can offer our place to other like minded folks.
We strive to make Sweet Creek a special place for all to enjoy.
