Irish Mist ~ Amazing Views and Deck! BBQ, Dog Friendly!

Over the river and through the woods, to Irish Mist we go! Feeling nostalgic? Irish Mist is a classic riverfront Russian River vacation rental with original knotty pine interior, antique furnishings, a large sunny deck overlooking the river, and a private year-round river dock. This multi-level home features a downstairs living room with wood floors, high, open beam ceiling, and gas fireplace. A separate dining area offers river views and French doors leading to a homey kitchen. Sliding glass doors lead to a large river-facing deck.

Upstairs, there are 2 bedrooms and a full bathroom (bathtub/shower combination). Plus, a family room with large windows and a sofa bed for additional sleeping space faces the river. The downstairs living area includes a bedroom, full bath, kitchen, a separate dining room and a sunny deck. From the back deck, stairs lead to a private river dock - a great spot for sunbathing or swimming during summer months. Irish Mist is located one mile west of downtown Guerneville and is walking distance to two restaurants and a dog friendly public beach. Russian River Valley wineries and the Sonoma Coast (Bodega Bay and Jenner) are a short drive away!

Know Before You Book:

Maximum Occupancy and Quiet Hours: The maximum occupancy at Irish Mist is 8. Quiet hours are from 10:00 pm until 7:00 am. Outdoor amplified sound is prohibited at all times.

Parking: There is space in the driveway for 3 vehicles (the garage is used for storage and is not available for guest use). RVs, trailers, and campers are prohibited, per the Sonoma County Vacation Rental Ordinance.

Bed Sizes: Master bedroom: Queen bed; Second bedroom: Queen bed; Third bedroom: 2 Twin beds; Living room: Queen sofa bed.

Heat Source: Gas fireplace, central heat.

A/C: The house 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.

Docks and Boats: Docks and beaches are seasonal only and available from mid-June to mid-September providing the summer dams are in. Irish Mist does not provide canoes or kayaks. The river is usually too swift for boating in the winter and many docks and beaches are under water until late spring.

Nice quiet stay
We loved the closeness to the river and the quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed our 20 minute drive to the beach and walk to the river access for some swim. The town was not too slow and not too busy. We enjoyed our stay.

Relaxing on the River
Only had 7 (including my wife and I) people for 4 days. 4 people for 4 days, and 3 people for 4 days. First time renting a house without any boats. Kids and guests missed boating. Winds cooled the house every afternoon, even when temps were in the 90's. Great neighbors next door. Papers say I have a lab. Yet 3 years old and still not going in the water, Hmmmm. Saw no blue algae this year. Saw an egret and a couple of blue heron. Great time to swim 6:30 - 7:30am. Peaceful and no sun for us skin cancer people.

Not worth it
Grandmas furniture is not quaint, it is tired and worn out. The dishwasher barely worked, many important light bulbs were burned out and no replacements. Don’t get me started on the terrible shower downstairs, the dock is to high from the water to put our kayaks in from, the outlets are so old when you plug something in it just falls out-fire danger, it was just a huge expensive disappointment. Couldn’t wait to leave.

So quaint
This was such a quaint property. Access to the dock via stairs and blow up toys were a plus we weren’t expecting! There was a slight maintenance issue, but after a quick call Brian showed up and fixed everything up so fast. He was so nice! Very personable and was so great ti chat with while he worked. I spoke with several ladies at the office (forgive me I can’t remember their names) but they were so great and I loved being here. Everything was clean and as described in the website. I did NOT bring my fur babies with me, but you’d never know pets were allowed(no smell or hair). The neighborhood was really nice. And quiet hours were honored by the whole street which was so nice. Would definitely reccomend if you’re bringing The whole family!!!!

Birthday weekend
The house was clean and we had excellent communication before check in and during our stay. It was an exceptionally warm weekend and the river access and dock were perfect! The water was low flow and many people were kayaking on the river already. Everyone went swimming and then hung out at the deck and later on the porch and bbq. Plenty of parking which was nice, and lots of room for my whole family. Overall a great time and a lovely location.

Very cool place to stay
We had a great experience with the rental company, they tended to any need we had. The place is very nice and bonus it has a year round deck on the Russian River. Nice and quiet at night, very comfortable place to stay at. Highly recommended and we will see you next time !

Right on the river
We have stayed at this house before. It's a great location, and very comfortable. This time the house was beginning to be in disrepair. It is still functional and comfy (the beds are super comfortable). But...outlets not working, dishwasher not working, ripped screen, dingy/chipped paint, one door had a hinge off it, carpet stains...that kind of thing. It just doesn't look like it's been maintained. We still had a great time, but hopefully someone can put some LOVE back into this house! Regardless of all those details, it's still an amazing location. You sit out on the deck, and just enjoy peacefulness of the river. And the dock is great - right at a deep part so you can do cannonballs off the dock. And we always rent kayaks and have them delivered. We all had a great time at this house!

Really Comfortable!
Just completing our stay in this very comfortable and roomy home on the river. Lovely, wood living room with gas fireplace leads into a well equipped kitchen and dining area. Plenty of cooking utensils, dishes, pots and pans. We had no needs for the preparing of our Thanksgiving Meal! Great wrap around deck was dog secure, a real convenience since we had significant rain during our stay and the road infront of the property flooded making walking our pet a bit challenging! Plenty of sleeping space with upstairs and downstairs bedrooms well separated giving everyone some privacy as well. The upstairs sitting area has a lovely view of the river. If you like to dine out, Guerneville's main street is virtually one restaurant after another, something I would let the Chamber of Commerce know is not a great recipe for economic success! There was a couple of Recycled Clothing Stores, a stain glass showroom and a great 5-10 Cent store with a bit of everything for sale. I would honestly say Irish Mist is a lovely, comfortable home to stay in with excellent river access. We would definitely recommend it and would return to stay again.

Relaxing Sister Weekend was a success with this view
Relaxing Sister Weekend was a success with this view and the quiet of the area. The deck was amazing for coffee and reading each morning and wine and conversation each night. The one thing we noticed was each flooring change on the 1st floor also had a height change by an inch or sometime two which tripped us up at the beginning of our stay, bathroom to hall, living room to kitchen - a bit odd.

Beautiful home on the river
It was everything we were looking for! Beautiful fireplace and great room that was fantastic for sitting and watching Netflix while chatting. Nice, big dining table that accommodated all of us perfectly. Big deck with gates. River was too high and fast for floating, but it gets sun on the deck and was nice for drinking coffee. A bit hard to find later at night, but it worked out. Bring extra blankets because it gets cold and we couldn't find too many extras! Comfy beds, Lots of extra pillows, though, and a great selection of magazines and games. Wifi was good. Close to town and activities in the Russian River area. Cons: - no sponge or scrubby for handwashing dishes - had to use paper towel for scrubbing. - ants (only on first floor?); but it's in the woods, so this is to be expected. - AT&T cell service was spotty, so if you *need* to use phone, make sure it's Verizon or Sprint. Would definitely visit here again!
