Riverdale-t w/seasonal dock/boats, hot tub, large yard, dog-friendly! | Cabin in Monte Rio, CA

**Boats and Dock are ready for the 2025 Summer Season as of 5/10!** Riverdale is a charming riverfront property on a quiet, sunny street in Monte Rio. With a large backyard to relax and seasonal canoe and kayaks for fun on the river, it's a fabulous place for couples, families, and friends. Fully equipped with smart TVs, board games, high-speed wifi connection, and two remote-working spaces, you can entertain yourself or work (if you must). Upstairs is light, bright, and open, with French doors that open to the deck.
The well-equipped kitchen has everything you need, including an espresso maker. Other essentials like a blender, cocktail shaker, and wine glasses and accessories pair well with farmer’s market finds for truly fantastic wine county meals. Bedrooms and living spaces are split between the two levels of the home with the kitchen, living room, two bedrooms and a full bathroom upstairs and two bedrooms, den, and a full bathroom downstairs.
You’ll LOVE the outdoor spaces! The back deck runs the length of the house and boasts a propane BBQ, outdoor seating and dining areas, and views of the river and yard. The hot tub and sometimes shaded, sometimes sunny patio, sit below the deck and face the backyard - lush with plantings and expansive lawn - stretching to meet the river via a terraced overlook and stairway to the private dock. The sizable dock is tucked into the canopy on the edge of the river with built-in benches - a great place to watch the river flow.
After a restful snooze, explore the nearby hamlets of Duncan’s Mills and Occidental – each a short drive and teeming with unique shops and restaurants – or head to the coast, the many local vineyards, hike or zipline in the redwoods, or find your own adventure.
