Reviewed on 2023-12-05 by , Galesburg, MI United StatesVino Velo is a great for a quiet, relaxing getaway. The property pictures and descriptions are accurate. We are digital nomad’s exploring the country. There is only one thing that would have made the property perfect, having a dedicated work space.

Fantastic Stay
Reviewed on 2022-08-14 by David P. , Half Moon Bay, CA USThis location had everything we needed. Nestled in the trees, the location was quiet and yet a quick drive to the river brought us to the activities we were looking for. The hot tub was very well maintained and surrounded by redwoods. The bikes were ready to go in the garage! This was a top notch experience.

Lovely Stay
Reviewed on 2022-02-22 by Renee G. , Oakland, CA United StatesI had a small group of teens and we had a wonderful time! The property management company were responsive and accommodating to our last minute request. There’s a lot to do from the game room, hot tub and relaxing in the cozy house. I made it clear the rules and quiet hours and the teens did not disappoint. We brought a piñata down to the dog park area and a few very friendly local people helped us secure it on a tree branch and laughed as we tried to break it open. We really enjoyed our stay!

Well appointed, quiet, and relaxing - amazing deck and hot tub
Reviewed on 2021-05-12 by Richard D. , San Francisco, CA UnknownWe really enjoyed our time at Vino Velo. The house was chock full of amenities and the property is well laid out. The place seems much larger than it is. The deck was my favorite feature and we spent most of the time BBQing and relaxing in the hot tub. The house was super clean and also way more modern than I expected, which was a nice surprise. We will definitely be staying again.

Great place to stay for a quite get away
Reviewed on 2021-05-09 by , Citrus Heights, CA USPros: House was cute and has everything you could need. The game room in the garage was very neat plenty of activities to pass time. The deck was beautiful with wonderful furniture and hot tub. (Wish the hot tub was a little hotter) but still very pleasant. The views of the trees surrounding the area are pretty dawn till dusk. There is one parking spot and a over flow parking section only a two minute walk away from the house. The lighting and ambiance of the house is relaxing. The beach is almost less than 30 mins away which was convenient. Getting to the location was fairly easy as well. <br/>Cons: One bedroom had glass window doors that has a sheer see through curtain over it which isn’t very good for privacy had to makeshift some privacy with some towels. Some of the cookware seemed a little dirty but nothing we could easily reclean real quick. For us the staircase up to the front door wasn’t to much of a problem but unfortunately it would not be suitable for people who cannot get up stairs as there is no other way in that we could see at least. It is awfully close to the other neighbors that live there full time so you cannot be noisy after 930 so not good if you plan on celebrating late. <br/>

Great stay for family with dog
Reviewed on 2021-03-27 by Jamie N. , PINOLE, CA USThe cottage was cozy and comfortable with lots of amenities. Rio Nido is a nice little community in the Redwoods. We brought our large dog. There is not a yard, so be prepared to walk the dog to do its business. There was a fenced dog park just a 5 minute walk from the cottage. There was also a playground, a picnic area and mini golf, but it was raining so can't rate those. Our kids are 20 and 15 and we enjoyed the game room in the garage and the hot tub. I would hesitate to stay here with small kids because there is no dining table, only barstools for the island counter. The Rio Nido Roadhouse was within walking distance and would be awesome in the warmer months with its outdoor tables, food, drinks, large grassy area and swimming pool. The food was decent but it was a bit chilly sitting outside, even with the propane heaters. Guerneville is a short drive and has restaurants, small shops, art gallery, etc. One possible issue with the location of the cottage--it sits at the top of a rather steep, narrow road. If you have mobility issues it would be very hard to walk anywhere from the cottage. Even our SUV had troubles getting up the hill and the parking spot is very tight. If you bring a large vehicle it is better to park in the spot at the start of the court.

Just what we needed
Reviewed on 2019-08-19 by , Duluth, MN USFrom the moment we walked in, we felt comfortable. We were two adults, two sixteen-year-olds, and one eleven-year-old. The beds and bedrooms were spacious.The youngest slept on the pull out couch and was very comfortable. We loved the decor (we are avid mountain bikers)! The game room in the garage area was used each day.The kitchen was well-stocked. There were even extra spices and miscellaneous items. We especially loved the coffee maker and espresso machine. Of the 4 nights we stayed, we used the grill nice to have that option! <br/> Now that we are home, we miss sitting outside on the patio/deck with a glass of wine by the fire in the still of the evening. The hot tub was also used each evening. It was so peaceful to sit and soak under the redwoods.

Great Home in Woods
Reviewed on 2018-05-25 by , San Diego, CA United StatesVino Velo is a great rental for a couple or group of 4. The layout of the home is open and allows for everyone to relax and interact between the kitchen and family room (great furniture layout). It is decorated lovely both inside and out. The owners have thought of every detail.... expresso machine, wine aerator to the hot tub and fire pit. Having stayed in several rentals in the area I would say it is above the average. The one thing occupants need to be aware of is cell service was VERY limited (to non-existent) at the home even if Verizon is your carrier. The home does have internet and you can connect to it. If you are looking to disconnect ... then no problem. Would recommend to a friend and would return. Management company was great to work with too - no problems/hassles. Provided great information about the area - attractions, restaurants, etc.

Reviewed on 2017-07-22 by Maria J. , Glendale, CA United StatesOur family was interested in visiting the region above San Fransisco with our two kids and grandma who joined us from Minnesota. The various sites did a great job at highlighting the beauty of the Russian River. I came across VinoVelo and was sold both for its size, convenience, comfort and the fact that it had a few games to entertain the kids on some down time. We were super pleased with the home. It met all our needs, it was clean, comfortable and had great kitchen amenities for cooking and convenient proximity to everything . Best of all it was wrap around Redwoods We would most definitely return in the future.

We took our three kids to this great cabin in Guerneville and had an amazing stay. The cabin was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed. The beds were comfortable and we had enough sleeping space for all 5 of us. The cabin is secluded so you feel totally taken away from the world which was nice. The game room was a huge plus for the kids. It poured raining but we made the best of it and did a couple of day excursions. The staff at Wine Country to Coast were so nice and patient. We called a couple of times with questions and everyone we spoke to was accommodating and kind. We can’t wait to go back when we have better weather!
