Cottage vacation rentals in St. Helena

We’re very familiar with the surrounding area and this home is classic to the Russian River vibe. It’s easy to access Jenner Highland preserve, Armstrong woods and river activities. We found the listing to be accurate and very clean. We did not access the small secondary building but appreciated the hot tub. We also were glad we left our dog at home as there is no grass on the property and several stairs to navigate. It would certainly work for some dogs, but not ours was quite large. We did appreciate David’s immediate response to our request to edit our reservation when we decided not to bring our dog; excellent communication!

We absolutely loved our stay at the cottage! The hosts, Lynn and John, were friendly and welcoming. We brought our baby and they left out a booster seat, child plates/bowls, toys, and made up the crib for him! We were able to do a barrel tasting, which was fantastic! We loved the hot tub and the garden. Wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy the corn hole and fire pit! Will have to come back!

What a beautiful place to stay! It has everything you need and is steps away from Sonoma Plaza , full of fun shopping and dining! The host was so nice and everything was very clear and easy. We will definitely be back!

We had a lovely time at Emily’s garden oasis!! It was peaceful and private with stunning gardens covering the property. The beds were cozy and comfortable! Stocked kitchen ready for cooking and BBQing. We loved the walkability to the river! We will be back!

Karen's place was amazing! It looks beautiful in the photos and even better in real life. It's so peaceful—we saw deer and foxes from the balcony. The wonderful view from the hot tub is also so nice. It's one of the best Airbnbs we've stayed in. Location, privacy, size, etc, everything was perfect. Highly recommended!

Our stay was lovely! The beds and linens were comfortable and the rooms were quiet. The entire home was well stocked and it felt like a second personal home in terms of the quality of items - sharp knives, well stocked pantry for cooking basics, foil, etc. We brought two dogs and it was a paradise for them. The outdoor area is truly magical. The fire pit is great, the downstairs dog shower is handy, and the landscaping is sublime.

Zorelle was communicative from booking - Check out. He answered questions promptly, gave great recommendations and instructions for our stay. The cottage was as pictured and very comfortable. It made our "Bucket list" week the best place to recoup in the evening. We had a great time!

We had a great stay at Adam’s place in Monte Rio. The beds were both very comfortable, and the whole space felt really welcoming. The property is beautiful — the landscaping is well cared for, and the herb garden was such a nice touch for cooking. The kitchen had everything we needed, plus a great selection of cookbooks. The hot tub was a definite highlight, and the view of the river made the beautiful backyard even better. We loved being able to swim and kayak in the water, and the neighbors were friendly too, which added to the relaxed vibe. Would definitely love to come back!

My friend and I loved this home; furnished in a charming and comfortable way with pleasant accents and colors we loved. Everything we needed to be content was supplied in a way that was easy. We felt quite at home and could have lived there for a long stay.

We had a great super last-minute stay at Chad's place! Chad saved our ill-fated camping trip to the coast (we were defeated by 35 mph winds at 7:30 pm) - he got back to us within 15 minutes and even sent over someone with clean towels within 40 minutes. His bungalow was a super comfortable retreat for our two families with two toddlers and a dog - everyone loved the outdoor space! I can see it being too hot in the summer months without A/C but we were very comfortable with the fans on. For families traveling with kids, just fyi we were hoping to put the kiddos in the game room for bedtime but weren't able to do so as there's no bathroom access without exiting the house and coming back up the outside stairs. Just wish we had a second day to take advantage of Chad's amazing stash of river gear!!!

Our family enjoyed our stay at Sarah’s place. Access to the river was a very short walk from the home. The house was clean and clear of clutter.

It was a really nice stay for me and my two dogs. Extremely nice family, and nice quiet & private place. It was unlike most Airbnb’s in that everything in the interior had a personal touch, it was fully stocked to cook, every possible need, both to cook inside & out. Most AirBnB’s have a bit of an “IKEA” feel, this felt like a true guest house, decorated, quality furniture, extremely clean. The drive in was beautiful, and the unit was great to stay in.

My husband and I (along with our 6 month old and our dog) enjoyed a perfect Fathers Day/Birthday weekend at Dennis's cottage! The location couldn't be better - so easy to grab provisions or a quick bite around the corner at the general store, and amazing to be able to walk to the beach in just a few minutes. The cottage is cozy - just the right size for two adults and a dog - with everything you need. Having a washing machine was extra convenient, and the balcony and fire place made for relaxing evenings. We love Dillon Beach and are so happy we found this place! Don't hesitate to book :)

We loved the place and the ducks were fun. Very rustic and perfect. I think stating turn right after Blackberry Ranch would have been helpful. We were on Hwy 128 back and forth going up roads, driveways etc for 2 hrs. We stopped people to ask, got out with flash on phone and tried calling to let them know we were so lost. GPS took us to the town of Yorkville and coordinates they sent took us further and ended us at a barn. It was so dark we could not see the Tadpole sign but went in each cottage until we found our name. Quite an experience. Love the place though. Great week-end for our anniversary.

What a gem! Tim’s home is a place of tranquility with surroundings of beautiful Redwood trees and a peaceful creek on the lower property. Our family enjoyed the outdoor sitting area, adorned with heat lamps and blankets for the cooler nights. Only a short 8-10 minute picturesque drive to downtown Healdsburg through the wine county and a perfect fenced in yard for our two small dogs. Thanks again for having us!

We arrived during a black-out of electricity. Cindy, our hosted, made us feel welcomed and assisted with genuine care of our concerns. We felt welcomed and cared for. The property was charming and it made us feel like we were truly in the country. Each cottage was detached--so no neighbors to listen through walls. Many thoughtful amenities throughout and the continental breakfast had quite a few options, including Oat Milk for those that cannot have dairy product. Great place to stay!

Wow! This property is absolutely stunning. Private and peaceful, it’s straight out of a magazine! Just 6 minutes from the most beautiful hiking trail, Goodlove Trail and just minutes to drive to some of the most beautiful wineries! We truly enjoyed our stay and would love to visit again!

The school house was more than we could have ever expected. It took our breath away the second we pulled up to the property. The kids loved walking up the long drive way and exploring the tree grove. Everywhere we looked there was something even more beautiful to discover. The house itself was stocked and cozy. We felt at home immediately. Lisa was in communication the entire time, everything was ran very smooth. We will definitely be back and for a longer stay! Thanks again for a wonderful stay 🤍 Lauren

Had a wonderful stay at the vineyard & farm. It was incredibly peaceful. The home was very comfortable and inviting. Our 3 year old called it ‘light & bright’! 😂

We had a great stay! This Airbnb has many great qualities, such as outdoor spaces and privacy. It has the right amount of space—roomy but not oversized (I feel weird when the Airbnb has way more space than you need for no reason). The amenities were good. It was easy to find. It had a feeling of remoteness, but was not too far away from things (I recommend the Korbel winery down the road). There was not an excessive amount of tasks to do before checking out. The requests were very reasonable. The hosts were wonderful, very kind and responsive. 10/10 would recommend.

Steve's place is very well-organized. The design and layout is very intentional, like a good host that anticipates and meets your needs and questions as they arise. The bedroom was very quiet, we couldn't hear any road noise or the neighboring rooster. We felt the home exceeded our expectations and will return.

We really enjoyed our stay here. Rooms were clean and well appointed. Bed was comfortable. Hot tub chemistry was well maintained (not always the case). Best of all, such a great location for anything in Monte Rio. We were there to see a concert and could walk to the beach, to town, and to and from the event. And after the event, we could sit out in the backyard in the hot tub under the beautiful redwoods (which were nicely lit) in the evening. Great spot. Would recommend and will stay there again if we ever have reason to be in Monte Rio. Plus Tom was very communicative as a host which I appreciate.

This was one of the best AirBNB’s we have ever stayed in. The three building layout was cool, unique and functional. The kitchen was very well-equipped. Everything was new and high-end. We would definitely stay here again.

Just wow. The ocean view is what made me get this place and it was beautiful. Everything was as described with clear instructions on how to use things. My two brothers and I stayed here and we were very comfortable.
