"Extraordinary"

5 of 5

The house is even better than the photographs. Spectacular. We enjoyed every minute of our three days and did not want to leave.

"family time on the river, in the kitchen. and on the coast"

5 of 5

I don't recall that the web page mentioned the ease of kayaking, swimming 100 yards downstrean to a beach on the other side or to the rocks across at the bend in the river, but we took advantage of that feature -including children as young as eight years old

"Reunion of College Friends and Spouses"

5 of 5

There were 14 of us who all fit comfortably in the available space. We enjoyed the experience very much including all the sites and activities available in the area, Lynmar Winery in particular

"A perfect family getaway"

5 of 5

River Queen was our chosen destination for a week-long Christmas family reunion. The booking process was very straight-forward and my questions were answered promptly via email. The information provided was very thorough and made our stay a pleasure. The historic home was a pleasure to stay in for the week and everyone enjoyed themselves, whether it was as part of a group or when quiet time was desired. The kitchen is equipped with everything you could possibly need to prepare meals for a large group. There are plenty of towels and a huge washing machine and dryer to keep up with everyone. The fireplaces (one downstairs, one upstairs) were a central gathering point and the firebugs of the house were kept busy keeping the coals going. The best part of River Queen is that it is big enough to have a large gathering without feeling cramped. We definitely recommend Russian River Getaways and having stayed with them twice now, once as a couple and once as a big group, they will have a residence to suit any need.

"Large,comfortable well equipped home at the Russian River."

4 of 5

There was plenty of space and plenty for everyone to do.The house was well equiped with books,games, beach chairs, kayaks. The views and weather were perfect. The down side: It needed a deep cleaning. The stove didn't work properly, we needed to buy new tips for the pool sticks, the kayaks had oars that were broken. The cleaning fee was exorbinant. The refrigerator looks big but couldn't really fit that much in it. Lots of stairs... not great for the old folk.

Manager Response:

Thank you so much for the review, and we're glad you enjoyed the house. The stove and oars have been replaced, and we'll make sure the other things are taken care of. The cleaning fee goes directly to the cleaners for the amount of time it takes to clean the house, and even so, there's little time for deep cleaning during back to back bookings in the summer. That said, we have replaced the cleaning crew after another complaint, so the house is in much better shape now. -Rachel

"River Queen Holiday"

5 of 5

My brother's and sister took my 90 year old mother to this beautiful house June 2013. We had between 12 and 17 people there for the week. We had competitive tournaments in ping pong, pool table and board games. (risk and poker). We also went to the local 9 hole gold course which is very nice. The bedrooms and other rooms were just great. There were some minor issues, like the BBQ and umbrella, but that did not make the stay any worse. It was a great time and we would do this again in a heartbeat. Thanks River Queen, we loved it there.

Manager Response:

The River Queen is just that, the Queen of all homes! The sun room is beautiful with the view of the river flowing by and all the fun activities right at your fingertips. It's definitely a great family gathering home and we're delighted you enjoyed your stay.

"The Queen needs a face lift."

3 of 5

The 5500 sq ft house is a perfect river side location for views, fresh air, and boating. The hot tube and the best feature. The interior had odd and in some cases inadequate and drab lighting. Some of the beds were very uncomfortable. The TV was a late 1980's back light job blurry and washed out. The stove stopped working eh 2nd day. The fridge alarm went off at 3 am and would not stop buzzing for an hour. The kitchen sink faucet was scalding hot or cold and did not mix. There are 11 beds in bedrooms with the remainder scattered around the house in other rooms. The pool table was not level. Several doors self locked and had be be propped open or you got locked out. The mini stereo from 1995 was radio and CD only with no port for an ipod/iphone. That was very disappointing and of poor quality. The computer did not work at all. The outside patio unbrella looked new but was broken and not usable. We could not sit at the table and have protection from the hot sun. Someone with good taste and $5000 could fix everything by eplacing some of the useless or funky furniture with so good used stuff and upgrade it a four star rental in about 3 days. The rental cost is a 4 star rate and not quite worth it in my opinion.

"Fantastic house with great amenities!"

5 of 5

We rented this house for a getaway weekend for 20 adults, 2 children (under 2), and one little red dog. This house is absolutely fantastic. When you walk in the door we were amazed with the comfort and luxury. The pictures do not do it justice, you have to experience it to understand.The kitchen is fully stocked with most every pan, appliance, & baking implement that you'll need. We were actually a bit shocked that all the 'extra' pans we brought were mostly not needed. The only thing we seemed to be a bit short on all weekend was wine glasses.The fire places were great and the sitting areas by them super cozy - although there wasn't kindling provided and the wood that was provided was a bit damp. Luckily we were able to get a hold of one of our later arrivers and had them pick up some fire starters.The boats provided were fun although the ramp to the dock was a bit precarious because the mud on the steps made it slick. Some of our intrepid friends took some time to clear a path in the mud (as much as they could) so that they could bring a few boats down. Everyone who went boating on the river thoroughly enjoyed it.One of the only downsides was the noise levels. My friends are not the quiet type and because of the layout of the house if they stayed upstairs the noise level was a bit much in the masters. However we discovered a few fans about the property and used them for 'white noise' and that helped greatly.I would definitely recommend this property. It was beautiful, large, and stocked with everything we could have needed!!!

Manager Response:

Thanks for the feedback! We'll make sure that wine glasses are stocked back up and take a look at the wood pile. I do have to point out for the future that the river is not considered safe for boating or swimming Nov-Apr.

"Memorable!"

5 of 5

My sorority sisters and I recently stayed at the River Queen for an Oregon alpha Pi Phi reunion. What a magical time we all enjoyed! This trip had special meaning for myself as my grandparents owned the River Queen in the 50s and 60s and I spent many summers and Christmases here as a child. It was fun for me to revisit and share it with my sisters. Even though the house has changed over the years, the accomodations are wonderful, plenty of room for all and the surrounding area is beautiful. Kitchen is great, watched the U of O Duck game in the downstairs living room on the big TV (we won!), kayaked, relaxed on the deck and in the hot tub and enjoyed the beautiful Russian River area so much. Armstrong Grove, Jenner and Duncans Mills were hits, along with the bookstore and coffee shop in Guerneville. Wish we could have found Bohemian Grove for fun! Thank you for a wonderful, memorable visit to this marvelous, historic home! If you want a great place for a large group, this is the house for you. It is one of a kind on the Russian River!

Manager Response:

What a great story - thanks so much for telling it! -Rachel, general manager

"A family's heaven"

5 of 5

Just celebrated a week at the River Queen with my family - all 21 of us ranging from 83 years of age to 5 months and it was fantastic. The River Queen had more then enough room for all 5 families to sleep and also to relax. We were able to find activities for everyone, golf, boating, biking, walking... The weather was great because the River Queen is only 10 miles from the ocean, so there was some morning fog but when it burned off the temperature was perfect. Our favorite gathering place in the house was the kitchen and the inclosed deck that looked out onto the Russian River.

-AMB on 07/26/2012

 

"Amazing getaway for large groups!"

4 of 5

The River Queen estate is a true gem of a hide-away for a long weekend. We had a variety of friends and families with children that came together from all over Ca, and there was plenty to do for everyone without ever leaving the area. The layout of the house and bedrooms offered everyone the privacy they needed, and with many different places to congregate, without ever stepping on anyone's toes or noise carrying. It was also super helpful to have the kitchen downstairs as a backup fridge, and prep area for making large group meals. It was also stocked with everything you could possibly need to cook and serve, not just the basics. The games, kayaks, canoes, hot tub, basketball hoop, fire pit, and multiple porches were all a big hit! The only little detail that was inconvenient (but by no mean a problem of substance) was that the only bathroom that is not in one of the bedrooms is tucked in a far corner downstairs. Because we had multiple nappers and a variety of bedtimes, using the bathrooms upstairs required some coordination. I highly recommend this property... my group will be back, for sure!

Manager Response:

The Queen is truly special, and I'm glad you made the most of your visit. Please come back again soon. -Rachel, Russian River Getaways

"One absolutely fantastic birthday party."

5 of 5

When we did the search for a house in which to host a birthday celebration there were two main criteria - no more than two hours from San Francisco and large enough to accommodate our group. The River Queen had everything we needed and wanted. My wife and I along with ten of our nearest and dearest spent an amazing weekend in this marvelous house. We lacked for nothing in a very well equipped and comfortable house. We all commented how much fun it would be to be there in the summer. The weekend could not have been better despite the rain.Upon our arrival on Friday I realized we needed another coffee maker as well as flashlights. Someone came by very promptly to take care of the request and gave us some interesting history of the River Queen.

Manager Response:

Excellent that you enjoyed the Queen so much, and we're glad we were able to take care of you. -GM

"Perfect"

5 of 5

You know how you ren a house and the arrive and it's so much smaller than you could imagine? This was the opposite. I'd been having anxiety about whether we would all fit comfortably over the weekend away. I mean, in some houses I have stayed in, they turn closets into bedrooms. We had the max adult occupancy and half of the time I was completely unaware of anyone butmyself and my sister. We all had comradery and privacy on demand. Perfect. We will be headed back.

Manager Response:

The Queen is indeed a majestic sized home. We're so glad you enjoyed your stay there. -rkl

"Fabulous space for a large gathering"

5 of 5

We celebrated my husband's 40th birthday here with a group of 18 adults and infants/toddlers of assorted ages. It was a wonderful space for this type of gathering. Lots of different sleeping options for different combinations of couples with kids, couples w/o kids, and singles. The large, open kitchen and adjacent dining table were perfect for hanging out while cooking meals, and the other public areas (large living room, huge deck area with multiple levels, yard in front and back, and downstairs living room and game room) were fun for adults and kids to explore. The view of the river from the back deck is beautiful, and the hot tub is located right in the middle of a circle of redwood trees. We also enjoyed kayaking and canoeing on the river. Very easy river access.

Manager Response:

The Queen leaves another group of guests happy! We love this home as well and are so glad that it worked so well for these folks. -rkl

"Fabulous Family Reunion Spot"

5 of 5

We rented the River Queen for a family reunion and 95th Birthday celebration for my mother-in-law. The River Queen was the perfect place to relax and visit with one another while close enough to the sights that everyone could come and go as they pleased. The upstairs kitchen is huge and very well appointed. Each family took a turn cooking the evening meal. Very quiet and peaceful.

Manager Response:

Thanks for these kind words. The River Queen is a wonderful home, and we're so glad these guests enjoyed it. -rkl

"Redwoods and River bliss"

5 of 5

Held my 40th birthday with assorted friends and family at the River Queen. Awesome venue and great house with plenty of history. Kayaking from the back yard a definite plus. Pool table came in handy, but the upstairs sun room also proved very popular.

"Great Family Friendly Vacation Home"

4 of 5

We stayed at the River Queen this year with 14 family members ranging in age from 6 to 80 years old and 3 dogs. The house was great! Plenty of room for everyone. The youngsters loved spending time in the river and the hot tub and the elders loved sitting on the sun porch watching all the activity. The river access is challenging - with the young, the old, and the dogs having trouble getting back on the pier without help from a strong-tall adult also in the water. Everyone loved the canoe, and kayaks. The yard and decks are beautiful. The only caution is that the house is right off of highway 116 and the yard is not secured, so you may need to keep your dogs on a leash to keep them safe. We had a wonderfal trip and would definitely stay here again.

-Happy Camper on 07/01/2010

 

"Great family place."

4 of 5

This home is wonderful for large families. We had room to play board games and we could all sit down for meals together. The wildlife was fabulous! The whole family has sent emails to us relating that their time at the River Queen was great!

"We love the River Queen"

5 of 5

This is the second time we've rented this house for a company retreat. It's beautiful and so nicely situated on the river. It is a great house for a lot of people to share comfortably -- with areas for big groups as well as small seating areas for more intimate conversations, it's perfect. Nice kitchen, beautiful sun porch and great bedrooms upstairs.The only problem with the house is the circulation down to the rear main deck and the river access. It is something that could be improved, but it's not a major fault. We also had some difficulty with the stove.

"The awesome River Queen"

The River Queen is a beautiful home with wonderful views and atmosphere. We enjoyed our family reunion and the home had plenty of rooms, kitchen amentities, and everything else to relax and enjoy some much needed time off.

"River Queen Indeed"

4 of 5

We rented the River Queen for a friend's 40th birthday celebration and enjoyed it very much. It's almost like two seperate homes, one upstairs and one downstairs. The layout was great for what we needed, nobody ever felt like they were on top of each other...and we filled the house. Great river access and deck space. Hot tub among the redwoods with a beautiful view of the river. Also, it's a big property which was nice as a bunch of us brought dogs. Easy location, close to Monte Rio. The kayaks and canoe could be updated, some of them were pretty beat up. We wish the pier was a little bigger/longer. The down stairs kitchen could have been better stocked for easier use. That being said, we would definitely rent it again if we needed a house this big.

The home was perfect for our family of 18 adults & 3 babies. The young adults were thrilled with the amenties downstairs, pool table, ping-pong table, 50" TV & more. The boats were enjoyed by all. Service was impeccable-the stove upstairs needed a service call-it was fixed within the hour. The grounds are gorgeous & the decks perfect. The location is perfect for the coast, wine tasting, hiking, marketing & of course, being on the river was perfect. An absolutely marvelous time was had by all!

"AWESOME TIME"

5 of 5

We rented the River Queen for a 4-day weekend for 18 people. It was fantastic! The house is roomy, has a lot of ammenities (gas grill, lots of dishes, many nooks for folks to sit and relax, etc.)We enjoyed going down to the dock and kayaking and also the close proximity to wineries and small towns.I highly recommend this house if you want a quite serene setting that isn't in the middle of no where!Nora, MD
