    About Cosmo
    River days, bocce battles & hot tub nights—fall fun starts here! Just a 5-minute walk from the Russian River, this dog-friendly cabin makes late-summer escapes and crisp autumn weekends easy. Float the river, wander beneath towering redwoods, or sip through nearby Sonoma wineries. Back home, fire up the BBQ, challenge your crew to bocce, then unwind in the private hot tub or hammock. Multiple decks and cozy gathering spots make every day feel like vacation.

Relaxing Stay

The property was clean and well stocked. Everything one needs is provided. I’d recommend driving to the river/beach locations as the walk is on a main highway road. Would definitely recommend to others for a nice little getaway.

Great property - new, clean and well accomdated.

We had a great stay - the beds were small but comfortable. The stairs are a little hard to manage with small children and elderly but otherwise great - and you can access from the outside. Great kitchen, A/C, and walking distance to the amazing Hacienda beach. Perfect distance to the wine country, Thanks!

Enjoyed everything about our stay. Warm, inviting stay in the redwoods. Nice play to rest and have some fun with friends. Quiet and away from it all. Hot tub was wonderful, and a beautiful deck to relax on. Thank You.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful stay at this charming house tucked away in the hills of the Russian River Valley. The area offers a wealth of activities, and the house itself is well-equipped to meet your everyday needs. It also has a great selection of games, both inside and out, perfect for relaxing moments. Our only minor issue was with the beds—they were comfortable for a night, but we found them a bit challenging for a longer stay of four nights. Overall, it was a delightful retreat!
