Vacation rentals with a kayak in Northern California

Nancy and Sam were amazing hosts and we thoroughly enjoyed staying at their place. Great views, great amenities and overall a wonderful place. Would love to come here again!!

Beautiful home that had everything we needed for a weekend getaway. Home was extremely clean with access right to lake from backyard. We had a great time, and would definitely recommend for those looking for a peaceful and relaxing stay.

My family and I stayed at Kim’s place for several nights, and it rained almost every day, but the airbnb was so clean, organized, and comfortable that we fully enjoyed staying in each night, playing games and cooking food. It feels very spacious in the main shared living room/kitchen area, so everyone can spread out. We also brought 2 family dogs, who felt right at home too. The location of this Airbnb is great too because it’s only about a 30-minute drive to both the Bodega Bay Area on the coast and the Santa Rosa wine country area. Highly recommend this airbnb, and would come back again!

Pictures do not give the house justice of how beautiful it is. We plan on going back there as many times as possible and as soon as possible.

What a lovely spot for a little family getaway weekend. We loved the view and spent time on the water. Even my teenager said it was so beautiful and comfy. We’ll definitely be back. Thank you for sharing your space, Tom!

The place was beautiful! My family really enjoyed their stay. I would definitely recommend to friends and family!!

Jodi and Dan's house is cute, clean and comfortable and we had the loveliest stay. The kitchen is set up perfectly and makes staying in for meals very convenient. The beds have nice linens and are comfortable and the master bathroom is particularly beautiful. There are speakers around the house that make listening to music easy and everything in the house is easy to find. Getting the kayaks into the river is a bit of an adventure with the marshy area, but it is worth it once you are out enjoying the river. The river really is the highlight of staying here. I also apprecaited the outdoor shower with warm water to clean up from the river. We hope to stay again because this house is a true gem. Thank you, Jodi and Dan!

We, my group of 4 women, a weekend retreat, were relaxed and comfortable. We cooked most of our meals and found most things we needed. (We always bring things we don't expect a basic kitchen to have.) For basic cooking it was well stocked and with coffee, spices too. Shopping was just a few minutes away and restaurants also. A great place and we would stay again. Thank you Madison.

Absolutely loved this location. It felt like we were at a spa retreat with the fountain, outdoor shower, and hot tub. David’s guide is the best I’ve seen on Airbnb. Lots of great recommendations and instructions for the house. We felt right at home and the surrounding neighbors that we saw were very friendly. 10/10!

Words fall short when it comes to a pristine property, stellar hosts, and a comfortable homey atmosphere. This was our second visit and it was very much like returning home,

This place is a phenomenal find! I hadn't been to Manila in about 15 years but it's a very special area. The community park, Bay views are truly amazing. Katy was the best to talk to including being so helpful to get the heater battery replaced. The space is stylish, comfortable, has everything you need and could ask for and feel right at home. I could move in next week. I can't wait to return a couple times a year to explore more and more of the area. Very quiet, safe and peaceful location. A binder full of local recommendations, cookbooks to make food there, perfect location for both Arcata and Eureka. My birthday trip was excellent due to being able to stay here.

Had a great stay here. Everything was as described. No complaints!

Is it fancy? No. But it is reasonably priced, in a convenient location, has a great hot tub, and a wonderful host.

My cousins and I stayed at this place recently and it exceeded all our expectations! It was very peaceful and cozy. We would recommend this place to anyone else thinking about staying here!!

We had a wonderful weekend in this beautiful Airbnb! We are a young family with two small boys, and we enjoyed our weekend, we walked to the river for a picnic, we enjoyed the amazing views. We used the hot tub, the games in the upper floor and the well equipped kitchen. Overall we had an amazing family time.

Really peaceful and at the same time very well located close to Mount Shasta supermarket and various places you can eat. Kitchen spotless, really well stocked which was great on Christmas day - our son made pancakes for us in the morning :) Recommend and will definitely book again.

Great place on the river. We only stayed a couple of nights, but there is plenty to do in the area. Didn't have a chance to try out the kayaks, as we were here in early spring, but this seems like a fun thing to do. The place is just as described, there is everything you need to cook and entertain the kids. The place is cozy, but big enough for a family with 2-3 kids, if you don't mind having a single bathroom.

Beautiful, peaceful and lovely stay. This was a fantastic place and one of the best Airbnb stays in my experience. Paulette is a friendly host and has included so many extras in her rental. The house was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen had everything you would need and she has stocked the bathrooms with many extras. The location is beautiful with decks and windows that view the lake. The completely fenced back yard with the private beach really was beautiful and relaxing. We could let our dogs run free and they loved it. There are California buckeye trees there so I picked up the fruit that had dropped so my dog wouldn't chew them. There is a nice pergola on the beach so we could sit in the shade while the dogs played. Do try the Crestview walk listed in the binder. We drove to the dirt road, parked and had a really nice dog walk. We also walked the Redbud trail off of Hwy 20 which was enjoyable. I would definitely stay here again.

We did a mini staycation for Spring Break and had a very relaxing time! We didn’t need to go anywhere after we bought groceries. This place has everything! Hot tub, fire pits, tons of board games, arcade! My 2 boys, 15 and 11 had a blast and my husband and I got to take it all in and relax as well. Highly recommend!! I had some questions here and there and Misti would answer them lickity split! Awesome host!

This place was great to stay at! We loved the big kitchen, the various sleeping areas, and lovely views of the river. Even though it was cold during our stay, we loved the river access and made heavy use of the beach.

This was our first vacation in 4 years. The cabin was a wonderful place to stay and relax after long days of exploring the area. Only about 10 minutes from Yosemite South Gate. 55 minutes to the Valley. Highly recommend this place to stay.

Very nice and accommodating host.

First impression opening door to cabin-WOW! I wanted a quiet place among the trees and that’s exactly what it is. Sandy and Lynne were so friendly and accommodating, they make you feel like a welcomed neighbor. Tree views out of every window. Smell of forest overwhelmed my senses, host’s loving huggable dogs were a bonus, even walking grounds smelling burning wood was wonderful. Didn’t do any trails but maybe next time because this place beckons me to return.

Laura was an incredible host. She responded promptly to texts and calls with the many questions I had. She was always very helpfull, very pleasant and accommodating. We were delighted with our stay.
