About this house rental

The Enchanted Forest property features two 4 bedroom, 4 bath homes situated on three acres of riverfront property. The two spacious homes, Contente and Culture Blend, offer sleeping accommodations for 28 people. Each home features a 3 bedroom main house, a separate 1 bedroom suite, 2 kitchens, a recreation room and a spa. The main living spaces offer high ceilings, hardwood floors and a large open living/dining room. The fully equipped kitchens come complete with new appliances and breakfast areas. Many of the rooms, including both living rooms and 6 of the 8 bedrooms, feature glass doors leading out to large decks facing the river with outdoor dining and gas grills.

Both homes offer large garages with recreation rooms. Culture Blend has a pool table, ping pong, foosball, air hockey and video games. Off the patio is a spa with a gazebo. Contente has a pool table, ping pong table and a spa on the patio above the yard.

Enjoy excellent access to the Russian River from this riverfront property. Fishing, swimming and boating opportunities await just a short walk away.

Heat Source: Both homes have central gas heat.

Rec/Game Rooms: The game rooms are uninsulated spaces without central heating. There is a portable electric heater in the game rooms.

A/C: The houses do not have air conditioning. Being near the coast, the night time temps drop and just opening some windows is usually enough to cool the house.

Location: The Enchanted Forest Estate is located approximately 1.5 miles east of downtown Guerneville on River Road, a busy two-lane road that connects Guerneville to Highway 101. Due to double wall construction, there is very little road noise inside the home, as well as on the back deck and lower lawn area.The driveway and front staircase face the road. All outdoor living areas are shielded from the road by the home, natural surroundings and a 10-foot high privacy fence (at the front of the property only). The neighborhood is a mix of residential and commercial. Neighbors include full-time residents, a local pub, a deli, a self-serve carwash and a gas station/mini mart. Be aware that though there is a visual privacy, the carwash can be heard when in use and noise from the pub may be heard. We have had very few mentions from guests about either of these establishements. Please contact our office if you have any questions about the proximity of the road or any other questions about the property. Members of our staff have stayed at this property and loved it!

Additional Amenities: Both homes provide televisions in the bedrooms and living rooms. Recreation room items: foosball, pool table, air hockey, ping pong, arcade basketball, karaoke and video games.

    Great furnishings, well equipped kitchens, bed and bathrooms as well as an amazing supply of recreational amenities…! Our family has been gathering in this way for decades and it was everyone’s favorite place so far!

    We had a family reunion at the Enchanted Forest Estate, and it worked beautifully. Everyone loved the playrooms. The teens slept down there to have their own clubhouse. Each open concept kitchen/living room/dining room was large enough to accommodate our whole group, yet there were plenty of spaces for people to get away for quiet time. Everyone had a bed or sofa bed for sleeping that was comfortable, and there were plenty of bathrooms. It’s a great property for a group gathering.

    Our group of 11 stayed in the two houses for a weeklong reunion. It met our primary criterion of having 6 bedrooms with 6 full baths, which is not easy to find. We appreciated the long tables, both inside and on the deck, where we could all dine together. The common rooms had enough space and seating for us to visit and share music together. The kitchens were roomy and well-supplied, and the facilities were clean. The attached garages for indoor parking were a plus. The backyard, which abuts the river, was lovely, although steps to the river were absent due to prior floods. There are many nice amenities like air hockey, ping pong, hot tub, boats, etc which we didn’t use, but which are a plus for many people.There were some negatives. It is right on River Road, so those with bedrooms facing the front had to contend with traffic noise. Noise from the car wash next door was sometimes annoying when we were visiting on the back deck. There were several maintenance issues, including faulty and insufficient kitchen lighting in one unit, and leaky bathroom fixtures. We reported the issues to the owners, and they were very appreciative of the feedback, and I expect them to be addressed. One other problem was two different foul-ups with the key codes for the front doors that we had to sort out with them. But despite these annoyances, overall we had a great time and enjoyed our stay.

    This property offered enough space for 24 of us to gather for a great meals in a comforably large room. It also had enough space for each of us to find a quiet room to escape from the crowd. The Massive game rooms were great for kids of all ages, the hot tubs a comfort after the competition! There were enough tv's, stereos, dishes and games. Winter offerings of hiking, beach combing, wine tasting, shopping and beer pong were all within a short drive. The location on the river is great, we'll be back for summer.

    Our stay at was wonderful! The property was spotless, beautifully furnished, and fully equipped with everything we needed. The beds were comfortable, plenty of furniture, kitchen had all the utensils and pans, bathrooms are great with enough towels, soap and shampoo. We didn't like the some of the sofa and chairs as the cushions were nearly gone and it felt like sitting on a rock. The suite bedroom in each of these 2 properties are actually separate like in law unit and not part of the main house which was something we didn't anticipate. Backyard was good running down to Russian river but with the off-season we didn't use it that much. Both the houses had lot of games, pool tables, table tennis as shown in the pictures. TV's were LED's and not the older Tube TVs which is what is shown in the pictures. The host was attentive and responsive, keys and other information was very well laid out and provided. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would definitely stay here again!
