Description

Whether you're new to the Russian River or stayed here a hundred times, you will love Racer Five and its modern, yet comfortable, décor and vibe!

Delightful new construction and a complete remodel (2014/15) resulted in a home for friends and family to getaway to wine country, play at the river and enjoy each other's company. Racer Five is a very tall three story home with the open gourmet kitchen, living and dining rooms, one bedroom and full bathroom on the upper level. On the large deck there’s a propane BBQ and outdoor seating for everyone. A smaller deck at the back is perfect for sitting and having your morning coffee or afternoon glass of wine.

A custom made spiral staircase allows guest to travel between the upper and middle levels without stepping outside, but there are exterior stairs as well and a second large deck on the middle level with additional outdoor seating. The remaining four bedrooms, full bathroom and laundry room are on the middle level. The bathroom is off the hallway so there's no need to cut through a bedroom. There's plenty of room to spread out in the house or outside!

A few words about cooking at Racer Five - it's an amazing experience! And building this gourmet kitchen was a labor of love. There are stainless steel appliances and a professional grade Thermador range with 8 burners, double oven and barbecue/griddle on top. Top notch accessories throughout the kitchen and exceptionally good lighting make this the perfect place to make and share a meal with your best buddies and family.

Kids, well-behaved dogs and adventurous chefs will love the fully fenced yard as well! With a third of an acre of majestic redwoods and new landscaping including a separately fenced garden, you can't go wrong. Pick veggies and herbs to cook with during your stay. A tree fort and hammock will keep the kids occupied while adults fire up the BBQ.

Everything you need is within walking distance! Across the historic walking bridge you'll find oodles of restaurants and cute shops (less than half a mile), Johnson's Beach (0.6 mile) with the best river access and sandy beach, and Riverkeeper Park (0.4 mile) featuring native plants and habitat with educational markers. On the south side of the river (same side as the house) you can walk to the Guerneville River Park (.3 mile), Pee Wee Golf (0.2 mile), and a kid's playground (0.3 mile) with tennis and basketball courts.

Light sleepers, folks with kids and dogs should be aware the neighbor has a boisterous group of dogs. They will announce your arrival at the house and other, especially unfamiliar, noises.

3 families w total 4 kids, all under 4. We all loved the space. there is stairs to get to the main space but there is a baby gate for the top floor. The kids loved the yard space and areas, the parents loved the fire pit and pizza oven after bedtime. 10 min walk to the main river area, our 3-year-old did it without a stroller. responsive hosts, would definitely stay again. -via Airbnb

A lovely house by downtown and well stocked with everything! The only downside is that the upstairs gets very hot and also there were a few power outages (just because of the neighborhood, nothing because of the house itself). Easy to walk to the main drag or down to the beach.-via Airbnb

Exactly what we were seeking

Reviewed on 2024-04-22 by Bert

This place provided exactly what we were seeking -- a base to hang out with and entertain family and friends. We chose it in large part because of the promise of cooking facilities, including the pizza oven, and that did not disappoint. The kitchen is large and very well-equipped, and the outdoor kitchen space was inviting and enjoyable to use -- the ample counter space next to the pizza oven inspired our own thinking about a planned outdoor kitchen. Bathrooms and bedrooms were clean and comfortable. The well-fenced yard with treehouse was wonderful for kids and dogs. Two things for prospective guests to know: The kitchen is at the top of four flights of stairs, so a meal that involves kitchen prep and outdoor oven prep will mean lots of up and down -- fine for most of our group but daunting for the older members. And if you have a full house, there will be moments -- maybe morning shower time -- where you will wish for one more bathroom. That said, we'd rent this place again! -via Airbnb

Christmas week 2023

Reviewed on 2023-12-29 by Deniz

We stayed in Guerneville over Christmas week 2023 with two families. The house was clean, with clear instructions from the responsive host. The layout, offering separate floors and bathrooms for each family, enhanced our privacy and comfort. Its proximity to Armstrong State Park and the Russian River was a highlight. Note for future guests: the entrance is on the top floor, challenging for those with accessibility concerns or heavy luggage. The AC fan can be loud at night, so you might prefer the room heaters. Internet connectivity was generally good for streaming, despite occasional drops and freezing, which is understandable in a remote location. Mobile reception was mediocre, particularly with Verizon. Despite the rain and limited dining options due to holiday closures, our stay was comfortable. We appreciate the hosting team’s efforts in accommodating us during this festive season. Thanks! -via Airbnb

Hello Deniz, Thank you for taking the time to write a review! We truly appreciate your time and your feedback. We are so glad you all enjoyed your holiday stay and thank you for being such amazing and kind guests. We would host you at any of our rental properties!

our family’s favorite airbnb

We stayed here with our family and kids. The house was easy to find and parking was really easy. The gated yard made it super easy to have kids and dog playing in the yard safely. The treehouse, ping pong table and outdoor furniture made it easy for everyone to hang out together but still do their own thing. The kitchen and stove were really great and made it easy for everyone to cook together . Downtown is super close and we walked to get ice cream everyday. The hosts were very responsive and easy to communicate with . Thank you Alyssa ! The only downside were the number of stairs to get to the house entrance and the steep, winding stairs from the living area to the bedrooms on the lower level. The stairs are definitely challenging for older guests and for dogs also. It was also very warm the weekend we stayed but there are plenty of fans and the lower level with the bedrooms cools down a lot at night . Overall, I would recommend a stay here. It’s been one of our family’s favorite airbnb experiences.-via Airbnb

Great property for a large family or multiple families, and pet friendly was a huge plus. Nice kitchen that was very well equipped with high quality cookware. The yard and parking areas were large and the yard was a great place to hang out and enjoy the shade on warm days. The home and yard are very pet friendly and the full fencing was very secure and lockable. I would highly recommend this property and I would rent it again. The property management company was great to work with.-via Airbnb

We love this property. It is the second time we have stayed at this property and have enjoyed our stay. This property is in a great location within walking distance to just about everything. Just a stone’s throw from restaurants, bars, wine tasting, mini golf, river, Johnson’s beach, kayaking, etc. 30 minutes by car to the gorgeous Sonoma Coast and 20 mins to historic Duncan Mills or The Wildflower Bakery in Freestone. The house has most everything you could need including a gourmet kitchen with and amazingly large island to gather around, several decks, fire pits, tree house, garden, fantastic gas grill, outdoor tables for eating on the deck, huge wraparound sofa, and majestic redwoods right in the completely fenced yard. We LOVE this pet friendly home. We had lots of family fun and so happy to make memories with our loved ones roasting s’mores and having a ping pong tournament and just chasing the dog in the yard. The property is well kept, clean, and spacious. It is an absolute gem.-via VRBO

Good house close to downtown Guerneville. Walkable to downtown. Top two levels of the home are used. We were four adults and three kids and we had plenty of room. A couple of nice decks and then a large outdoor ground-level area with a hammock, fire pit, outdoor oven, tree house, ping pong table, and garden. The kids enjoyed playing outside. Be aware that there are many stairs getting to the front door and a spiral staircase in between the two floors, so anyone coming to the house needs to be able to navigate them.-via Airbnb

Fantastic place for a large group. Beautiful surroundings, balcony decks in the redwoods, fun, open floor plan on main level, and close to anything you want to do on the River. Great stay! - via AirBnB

You can walk to the river and cross the bridge to downtown Guerneville in a matter of minutes. The beds were comfortable and everything was extremely clean. Lots of pots and pans to choose from to cook with and a nice fenced in area for the dogs. The stairs helped us get extra exercise too. We would rent this place again. We spent a lot of time outside on the deck enjoying the views and nice weather. Thanks so much for having us!

Such a cool place!

I loved this house, the yard, the fire pit, the pizza oven, the decks, the treehouse. Such a cool place. We had a lovely time. My dog was so happy. He's a city dog that got lots of exercise going up and down the stairs and exploring the yard! We'd love to go back!

Great House!

Great house for a family reunion. There were 5 bedrooms, but only 2 bathrooms - we wish there was one more. But the house was very clean and the kitchen was great - best I've ever seen at a rental. Lots of outdoor space for the kids to run around. Great location too - less than 10 minute walk to miniature golf, a playground and downtown Guerneville. We'd definitely stay here again.via AirBnB

Racer Five was the perfect home for a group of 10, it fit us all comfortably. Great location and after a day of crabbing in Bodega Bay it had the perfect kitchen to have a crab boil with what we caught. This is my second Rental with Russian River Vacation Rentals and they are very friendly and communication is always quick.-Airbnb Guest-

Great spot with an even better location. We rented racer 5 to celebrate my fathers 70th birthday and had toddlers, young kids, 30 year olds and of course some people in their 70s and everyone had a great time. The kitchen was a really nice place to gather and was stocked with everything you need. My only warning is that there are a lot of steps, so if you have an issue with this, maybe try another location. Overall an awesome place!

The kitchen is fantastic!

We had a ladies weekend away with 9 women and this place was fantastic! Great location, close to downtown and Safeway when we forgot something and close to wineries. The kitchen is fantastic! We made several large meals for the group and it was nice having a large open room to gather. Only issues, which wasn't really an issue because we knew about it is the stairs... There are A LOT of them! After several trips unloading the cars.. you do get winded. Also, neighbor dogs went a little crazy at ~7am, but we were told that they can be loud sometimes. I would highly recommend this place for a group! I slept in on of the twin beds and it was super comfortable.Source: Airbnb

The Racer Five house is great. It has everything you need, it's close to town, it's clean, and the place is just cool. We didn't have any problems with the dogs next door, like other reviews said but maybe we just got lucky. The place sleeps 10 comfortably. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend this place to anyone.Source: Airbnb

This was such a beautiful house and property! It was perfect for our two families with younger kids (total of 5 ages 4-10). The yard was fenced in and secure, the treehouse and tire swing were a hit, and the garden was lovely as well! We also spent a couple afternoons afternoons at the nearby beach along the Russian River, and we could BBQ and cook in the beautiful kitchen while the kids played downstairs! The only thing that I would let folks know is that it is a lot of stairs (living quarters are on the 3rd and 4th floors). This was fine for us, as it gave beautiful views and we don't mind stairs! Thanks again for letting us stay at Racer 5!Source: Airbnb

Well appointed home with most everything you need.

This was a clean home with most everything you need. Yes, neighbor's dogs bark constantly, but not that big of a deal. The bigger deal was the number of stairs to climb over and over, seems to be a recurring these in Guerneville homes. The yard set up was great, but we didn't eat down there because we didn't want to carry everything needed up and down those stairs. So we mostly cooked in the bbq and pizza oven and then trekked the food back upstairs to the top where the kitchen and living area was. If you like to cook on wood, bring your own as they supplied mostly pine. Very close to town, wineries, and not too far from the coast. Overall this was a nice place, but maybe a dumb waiter at least to move dishes and such back and forth.Source: VRBOResponse:Thank you for the review!!! And some great tips for future guests! I think you can skip the gym after doing the stairs this week! - Megan @ Russian River Vacation Homes
