5 Star reviews are in! Mar 2025!
We loved our stay at Heart of the River. The house is adorable & cozy, w/ a beautiful kitchen & comfortable living & bedrooms. The yard is gorgeous - there's a hot tub, a beautiful private garden, a large deck, & charming fairy lights. I expected to go out for dinner more, but the house was so cozy, we ended up staying in and cooking most nights. We enjoyed the hot tub and deck" FR, Healdsburg

Family Thanksgiving in the Redwoods

This property was very beautiful, comfortable and well-appointed for our family Thanksgiving. Many thoughtful touches made it even better, like a turkey roasting pan and baster waiting on the countertop. Everything was just perfect. Many family members said it was the best house we've ever rented. Thank you, Wright family, for many happy family memories to cherish!

Relaxing getaway

Beautiful setting. The home was very relaxing with lots of seating areas to read. Loved the way the early morning sun filtered through the living room windows. The home had everything we needed to enjoy our short get away. We would reserve again when coming back to the River.

Beautifully decorated property

A quaint, cute, well decorated property. The hot tub and yoga studio were a big bonus, and well utilized. The bedrooms were a little small (no room for suitcases) and the beds were a little hard for our taste, but overall it was a wonderful property.

Great getaway for friends/family

The house is adorable! We came in March for a quick getaway for my husband’s bday. We brought our 2 year old and Doodle. Although the sun was out it was a bit chilly to sit outside but the camellia tree was stunning and the yoga room was a cute addition. We only used the main house but there is an entirely separate casita where you could probably fit another small family. FYI you have to drive to downtown.

Cozy river home perfect a weekend getaway

My family of 5 (3 young kids) and I stayed here for Xmas weekend and it was a great getaway. We had everything we needed, were comfortable and loved the quiet serene neighborhood setting in the woods near the river. There were a couple small things that needed improving but overall a great rental, even with a hot tub and separated guest house that my kids enjoyed. We would come back!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really loved staying at Mi Corazon. The location was very peaceful. Sitting in the hot tub felt tucked away in nature, surrounded by the home's gardens and the redwoods of Russian River. Everything in the house was clean, functional and well cared for. The beds were comfy and the combo of the wall heaters and lots of bedding kept us warm on a couple cold spring evenings. We would definitely stay again! My kids are already asking if we can go back.

Gorgeous, gorgeous beautiful home

My friends and I were in awe of how beautiful this place is. It felt like a home away from home. The hot tub is a great recharge station. Has a ton of board games, all the streaming apps, extra points for the butter bear cups in the kitchen. Over all a beautiful property. Me and my friends would LOVE to return next year. We’re forever thankful to the hosts for having such a great property and trusting us with it.

Most Amazing stay!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Family came from Los Angeles and some from the area, this house was the best I could have chosen, my 14 year old cousin was about to have her own space, teach me how bad I am at PAC Man. The spa was wonderful, my aunt enjoyed it so much. The dining room was wonderfully spaced and stocked for our thanksgiving dinner. My 3 year old son realized that yoga may be to relaxing for him. It all together was so amazing and the property management was 110% there for everything. I will totally stay again with some family!!

Serenity along the Russian River

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property was so serene and peaceful. Nestled in a quiet neighborhood along the Russian River. River acces was a short walk away. We preferred just spending the day at Johnsons Beach with the kids as it was a little but safer for our kids. The kitchen was great for cooking family meals. The beds were comfortable too. We loved the outdoor space under the patio lights and spent a great deal of time in the hot tub after the cool air rolled in at night. An easy drive to the coast, Armstrong Woods and wine tasting. I would highly recommend booking this property. Just be aware that there is only 1 bathroom but a great outdoor shower available too. And there are only 2 bedrooms and a pullout sofa bed inside the main property. Bonus sleeping arrangements are in the second house across the courtyard but no bathroom in the guest house.

Literally Perfect

Everything about this property was perfect. House was cool because of the excellent brand new fans. Beds were super comfortable & slept great. Really good blinds on the windows so I didn’t even need to bring the black out curtains for our baby. Kitchen was incredible and super well stocked. Yard was SO spacious and fun to explore and spend time in. All the streaming services on all the TVs My kid loved the arcade game thing in the bonus space. So close to a great little beach. The only note which was absolutely in no way a deal breaker for us is that the bathroom door is a sliding barn door and not the MOST private. We loved this house so much and would be hard pressed I think to find a better spot for our family to stay. Thank you so much to the owners for decorating it so beautifully and putting it out there for the rest of us to enjoy.

Very Large Property

A nice stay for a brief family get away to Russian River. Property was huge. Kitchen was labeled and well stocked. As described on the listing. Location I docked one star but not bc the owners rather the general location plus this time of year left us finding most everything closed and looking for more to do than Armstrong Redwoods. The water level wasn’t safe for canoeing either. Only thing I will mention os there was a bit of an odor upon entry into the property which I communicated but again it was all clean. Communication was interesting in as much as while I usually received a reply (not always the most timely) I never really knew who I was communicating with. I don’t think it was with the owners but a handful of property managers. At one point we got a notice that the owner was getting notifications about the automatic door lock and what the issue was. We explained that we have a child on the spectrum who was very fascinated with the lock and that we would do our very best to temper this. The reply I got (again I don’t think from the owner so no blame there) was basically that I need to stop the behavior. For anyone who has a neurodivergent child we know it is not that simple. Didn’t sit well but the person doesn’t know us. Case in point I’m not sure the owner was made aware. That said the property is so large that if you have curious little ones you will find yourself constantly looking for them and making sure they’re not disturbing anything. Overall though very nice
