Summerwood is nestled in a forested neighborhood on the hill above downtown Guerneville. With a hot tub, multiple decks including seating areas and a propane firepit, terraced yard, and outdoor dining – all surrounded by lush greenery - you will love being outdoors! Inside, catch up on your favorite shows in the living room, furnished with a 46' flat-screen Roku TV, a plush sofa, and two modern armchairs. A wood-burning fireplace makes for a cozy mood. The dining table doubles as an excellent spot for board games and puzzles. Open beam ceilings, wood flooring, and large windows create a warm and inviting space. Your Northen California retreat wouldn’t be complete without indulging in a meal – or several – utilizing local produce and everyone’s favorite – WINE! Multiple wineries of great renown and even more family-run, small-lot vineyards are a short drive. If beer or cider are your preference, you’re in luck as well! And this well-stocked kitchen is the place to explore your inner chef. Followed by a soak in the hot tub or a hike in Armstong Woods. An easy 15-minute walk into downtown Guerneville to visit Johnson’s Beach, eclectic shops and art galleries, and Safeway, you may prefer a cab or rideshare for the return (uphill) trip. Unless you’re missing the gym and need a workout!
