"Very relaxing and zen
We had a great time. The house was very quiet and relaxing."
Nov 01, 2025 - Afsaneh T., Tiburon, NOTAVAIL
"AbsoluteZen house was lovely
The place was great! Thoroughly enjoyed the house. The neighborhood was a little odd. There were nice houses on either side of us on our side of the street. Across the street there was a dilapidated house falling down, and a parking space with couch and other household items. So that was a little funky, but the redwoods were everywhere and softened the view."
Jul 17, 2025 - Geoff B., Oakland, CA
"River
Home was comfortable with everything needed. Road to property is narrow but residence are courteous and even help you navigate. "
Jun 10, 2025 - Lorelei T., NA, NOTAVAIL
"So peaceful in this crazy world
we go to the river almost annually,never staying in the same place, which is fun, always and adventure. This house was very nice, seemingly very new, (my husband was convinced that we were the first people to stay there, which I knew we weren't). Very clean, very comfortable. Good layout, so many houses up there are kinda funky, with odd add ons, etc.
I didn't know it was so off the beaten track, it's in the deep woods, which makes it a great stay if you want to sleep in.
Open floor plan is nice,furniture is very comfortable. Grill located in the back, which is a bit awkward when bring your dinner in, as you can either go along the side of the house, to the front door, or, go through the bedroom, lol. Not a deal breaker. The one thing that "impacted" our stay was a lack of a cutting board. I messaged the managers and they were more then helpful about rectifying the issue. we bought on at safeway, and they said they would reimburse us, but, we decided to keep it, and let them know that they will need to supply one for the next guests. They were very apologetic for the inconvenience, I told them, no worries, we survived. It was fine exchange.
The game room was a really fun addition. The ice dispenser in the fridge is apparently possessed, lol, sometimes the ice get jammed, then flooded out, had a few I Love Lucy moments with that.
all and all, this is a very nice place to stay, especially if you want to get away from it all. "
Sep 20, 2024 - Sa W., los Angeles, CA
"Truly Zen amenities
This home was equipped with every detail to make you stay comfortable. They thought of all the things, like seating options and extra toothbrushes, just in case!
Guernville itself is a cute town with lots of great places to eat and the river!
The property is nestled in an area of homes with a few portions that are one lane making it a little tricky to navigate, but not a deal breaker.
Dillon Beach Property Management was wonderful to work with. They were prompt, professional and courteous in all our interactions. They made the stay prep, and time during easy. I’d definitely book a property direct with them in the future. "

"Great vacation rental
Much nicer than the pictures. Super comfy. Lots of space. Kitchen was nice and updated. Could use a few more plates. Outdoor area and grill were nice. A hot tub would have been amazing! But overall would recommend "
Jul 15, 2024 - David M., San Francisco, CA
"Good, Clean, Fun
Reps for the property were very helpful and the place was clean, and well-appointed. Great for 4 people. Kitchen needed a few more basic items like a salad spinner and a few more plates. No dishwasher pods were on hand so we couldn't start the dishwasher. BBQ was nice an clean and we appreciated that. I'd suggest adding a couple of yoga mats as the lovely hardwood floors were just that - hard.
Owner's guide to the property was thorough. "
Jun 04, 2024 - Marty O., Morrison, CO
"Comforting and Cozy Home!
What a wonderful stay I had. All was perfect from furnishings, and linens, to a well-stocked kitchen for all your cooking needs, and quality appliances and heating. It was so neat and clean all around; the parking was great as was the variety of outdoor seating. Lovely stay, thank you so much!"
May 21, 2024 - , Guerneville, CA
"LazyBear Weekend Retreat
The house is amazing,and suited our needs well. It's very hidden away back in the woods, but is not as private as the picture implies. "
Aug 14, 2023 - , Martinez, CA
"Best 4 Days in the Redwoods
A Great Place to kick back and relax for several days. We enjoyed all aspects of this location and the cottage. A perfect place for us and we will come back again. "
Jun 24, 2023 - William L. D., LANTANA, TX
"Clean, cozy and centrally located
We enjoyed a wonderful stay with friends at Absolute Zen! The house was very clean and had all of the amenities we needed for a relaxing vacation. The central location allowed for easy drives to enjoy the redwood forests, coastal views, and wine tastings at the vineyards. Also close to several, quaint towns with awesome restaurants. The owners were very communicative and responsive to any of our questions or needs. Would definitely stay here again!"
Jun 11, 2023 - Heidi G., Urbana, IL
"Relaxing weekend getaway
We had a wonderful stay at Absolute Zen. My husband and another couple all stayed here very comfortably. We come up and rent a house in Guerneville every Summer, so it was nice to be here in the Spring without the crowds.
The house was the perfect amount of space for the 4 of us plus our two dogs. Everything was spotless, the beds were comfy, the furniture and the kitchen/living room layout was very inviting. We cooked dinner both nights and enjoyed playing board games at the dining room table. The kitchen had everything we needed and even had a gas stove which is rare in Guerneville!
We appreciated the welcome goodies and the clear directions/info/recommendations in the supplied binder. The roads around the house were great for walking the dogs and breathing in some fresh air surrounded by redwoods. You are very close to the main street of Guerneville (I think about a 6 min drive) and also if you want some ocean air that is a quick drive also(approx 20 min). We enjoyed visiting Jenner and walking the dogs at Goat Rock Beach (where they filmed the final scene of Goonies!)and stopping in Duncan Mills for some coffee and pastries.
Russian River really is a magical place and this house was exactly what we needed for our weekend getaway. This is the perfect spot to come and unwind and enjoy all that wine country has to offer."
Apr 06, 2023 - Nicola H., San Francisco, CA
"Loved our stay at Absolute Zen
We had a wonderfully relaxing stay at Absolute Zen! It was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed for our week away. The house is situated in a gorgeous forest off the main road and we appreciated the quiet serenity of the surroundings and the grounding nature of all those redwoods. We enjoyed a hike in Armstrong Reserve and a stroll on the bluffs near Shell Beach. I love Guerneville's proximity to the ocean. Stace and the team at Wine Country to Coast Vacation Rentals were very responsive and helpful. Thanks for helping to make it a lovely getaway!"
Jan 03, 2023 - , NA, NOTAVAIL
"Absolute Zen
Very nice house, well appointed and in a good location to downtown Guerneville. The only drawback is to get to the house you need to drive on a tight single lane streets lined with parked cars and homes. "
Nov 24, 2022 - , San Jose, CA
"Cute house in the redwoods
We spent two great days in Guerneville in this comfortable house in the woods. Clean, well furnished, well maintained. Nice little touches with a welcome basket of goodies. "
Oct 03, 2022 - Jennifer S., Portola Valley, CA
"Spooky
Well - that photo - a little dishonest - the houses next door are INCHES away, the implication in the photo is that it separated - NOT. AND - the house across the street is nightmare on elm street/Adams Family - falling down - derelict, positively spooky - lots more only 2000 characters allowed - fer instance big chunks out of hardwood floor, game room is garage, cobwebs (all over the main floor), broken plumbing (fixed - but no new paper towels) - - - overall not very happy with this place."
Sep 17, 2022 - , Las Vegas, NV
"The experience lives up to the name...
Absolute Zen is the perfect name for this home. We spent 8 nights in zen.
Guerneville is incredibly peaceful but the neighborhood this home is in is charming AND peaceful. Adorable cottages and cabins are dotted in between the towering redwoods. Ferns and greenery surrounds everything. It's simply beautiful!
Absolute Zen is a hidden oasis. It's a clean and updated property combined with comfort and forced relaxation. It's incredibly quiet.
We easily found the home and following the instructions located the key. We walked into the home to find a gift basket filled with treats for us (we were starving so thank you!) and our dog, Orzo! The owner has spent the time to create a binder with information not only on the house but the area in general.
The kitchen was open and modern and stocked with everything you could need. The wi-fi was super fast and very strong (thank you!). The TV and cable was great. The back deck is beautiful! You have a private area to just "zen" out with the birds singing all around you.
Our dog was thrilled to be able to plop down on the front deck and watch the wildlife. We saw some beautiful deer wandering about!
I would absolutely come back to Absolute Zen in a heartbeat. It was just what we needed!"
Jul 03, 2022 - Jennifer C., San Mateo, CA
"Perfect
Everything about this house is high quality. A minor problem was solved by phone and I appreciated the kindness and help I got. I had no complaints."
Jun 23, 2022 - , Modesto, CA
"Mike's Review
Lovely! "
Mar 19, 2022 - Michael J B., Berkeley, CA
"Nice comfortable house in Guerneville
well maintained, clean property. Instructions clear and concise for directions, checkin, checkout, wifi etc. Stayed for couple of days (weekend trip) with family. Location is close to central area - safeway, starbucks. Beaches are 30 mins drive. Overall very pleasant stay"
Mar 18, 2021 - Praveen t., Milpitas , CA
"Cozy getaway
Great open plan with a wood-burning fire. A nice soaking tub to enjoy a soak after a day of exploring. Then sit by the fire and enjoy some games or watch a show."
Mar 08, 2021 - , Cupertino, CA
"A Beautiful Getaway
Our stay here was just the peaceful break we needed in the midst of moving homes. This house is truly tucked away in a different world amongst the towering redwoods.
The living space was fantastic and the updated kitchen had everything we needed to make this stay feel like home. The wood stove was perfect on the chilly rainy Sunday with a TV perfect for watching the football games. The bedrooms have a lovely view of the forest behind and each room has a very comforting, quiet feel.
The ping pong table in the garage was a fun activity as well!
Definitely recommend for a peaceful stay where you are looking to spend a lot of time in the home. "
Jan 28, 2021 - Michael G., Napa, CA
"Zen Home
The house was beautiful. Didn’t realize it was in such a heavenly condensed neighborhood but that wouldn’t stop me from staying there again. The only suggestion is working on backyard to make it a little safer. The incline was very steep and the block stairway up the hill see,Ed to need a little work. Since it is a pet friendly home I would work on the fencing.there seems to be a lot of areas especially close to decking where a small dog could escape down under house. Our dogs were never left unsupervised outside but our little Yorkie who fancies herself a greater hunter did get down under deck at one point."
Nov 19, 2020 - Cynthia P., Fair Oaks, CA
"Excellent
This was my first time staying in this area. I love the coast. The hidden valley property was very beautiful very peaceful. I enjoyed the Beach nearest to property was Goat Rock Beach easy to access and love that was dog friendly. "
Oct 21, 2020 - Kassandra K., Modesto, CA
"Wonderful
So relaxing and quiet. Thoroughly enjoyed. Great kitchen!"
Oct 19, 2020 - Lisa H., Frederick, CO
"In the Redwoods
Private and friendly neighborhood tucked in the trees. Backyard view of deer and trees. Close to town and river. House has everything you need and property managers were nice and responsive."
Jun 27, 2020 - Laura W., San Francisco, CA
"Family vacation
Great location for visiting the Armstrong forest, San Francisco, and the coast "
Jan 16, 2020 - Todd L., Richland, MI
"Absolute Zen
Wonderful property. Well appointed. Comfortable and lovely."
Dec 03, 2019 - Kathleen A., Oakland, CA
"Very pleasant experience, really nice house.
Everything went really smoothly. Property as described, nicely equipped, clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed the back deck with the big gas grill. "
