2 Bedroom Cabin in Northwood, Monte Rio
Uncork a bottle and relax at Wine Down, a charming 1924 riverfront cottage blending vintage character with peaceful natural beauty. Wood floors, custom cedar accents, and walls of windows create a warm, light-filled retreat overlooking the ever-changing Russian River.
The open living, dining, and kitchen areas make it easy to gather, with river views throughout. Enjoy cozy evenings by the gas fireplace or dine outside on the deck, where a hot tub invites you to unwind under the stars.
Follow the stairs to the smaller dining deck and seasonal river access. Birdlife is abundant, adding to the tranquil setting. Bedrooms feature comfortable Casper California king mattresses, and the living room offers plenty of space to relax.
Located just half a mile from Monte Rio, three miles from Duncan’s Mills, and ten miles from the Pacific Ocean at Jenner, Wine Down is the perfect base for your Russian River getaway.

Heat Source: Gas fireplace in the living room and electric wall heaters in the bedrooms.
A/C: Wine Down does not have air conditioning. Being near the coast, the nighttime temps drop and just opening some windows is usually enough to cool the house.

EV charger: Level 2 EV charger. Please use during non-peak hours/overnight.
Docks, Boats, and River Access: These are seasonal amenities and only available when conditions allow. Expect docks, boats, and river access when the summer dams are in (mid-June to mid- September). Conditions vary from year to year and can change rapidly – use your best judgement to determine your risk level and comfort in the water/physical activity. The river is usually too swift for boating in the winter and many docks and beaches are underwater until late spring.
River Stairs: There's a staircase from the lowest level of the yard to the river in the summer months. It is (rarely) shared with one neighbor. There is not a dock – the stairs end at the riverbed or the water depending on water levels.
Boats: When available, there is 1 double kayak, 3 single kayaks, and 1 stand up paddleboard stored in the yard.
Rural Setting and Critters: We live in a rural area with ants, spiders, rodents, and larger critters from raccoons and mountain lions to bears. While we make the best effort to protect against them from coming into homes, we also do not use poison where it can harm wildlife, pets, and children. And keeping all critters out is simply not possible. We appreciate your help in putting tasty smelling items into refrigerators, proper disposal of trash, and understanding that ants (especially) come in without warning and may not have been present at the time of cleaning.
Cell Phones: Please be aware that many cell phones will not have service at this location. There is WiFi though!
