About this property
Heron House - Hot Tub and Wine Tastings Included
Retreat to the exquisite Heron House, a riverside haven where the towering Redwoods meet the flowing beauty of the Russian River. This special riverfront home offers direct access to a private beach and is located just minutes from downtown Healdsburg. Tucked away on North Fitch Mountain’s wooded knoll, the setting feels wonderfully secluded—yet never far from Wine Country’s vibrant dining and wine scene.
There’s a rare calm here: morning mist rising off the river, redwoods whispering overhead, and the feeling of being completely immersed in nature while enjoying modern comforts.
The Space:
This thoughtfully designed 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home comfortably accommodates up to 8 guests and blends natural beauty with relaxed luxury.
• Living room with hardwood oak floors and a Tempur-Pedic® sleeper sofa
• Wall-mounted flat-screen TV with cable and high-speed Wi-Fi
• Dedicated workspace, ideal for remote work or planning wine country adventures
• Fully equipped kitchen and dining area, filled with natural light from skylights and large windows
• Slider opening to the patio with stainless steel BBQ and river deck
• Indoor laundry facilities
Outdoor Living & River Experience
Step outside and fully embrace the magic of river life:
• Saltwater Sundance Hydrotherapy spa on a redwood deck overlooking the river
• Private rock stairway leading down to your secluded riverfront beach
• Shaded sitting and play areas beneath mature redwoods
• Two kayaks available for guest use
• Redwood-fenced parking area with ample space. Street parking is available but may be limited on the weekends.
Sleeping Arrangements:
• Primary bedroom with queen bed
• Second bedroom with queen bed
• Third bedroom with queen bed
• Tempur-Pedic® sleeper sofa in the living room
Family- & Pet-Friendly Amenities:
• Pets welcome (fees apply)
• Pack ’n Play / travel crib available
• Selection of board games for family fun
Added Conveniences:
• EV charger
• Private entrance
• Ample parking within a gated, redwood-fenced area
Hospitality You Can Count On:
In addition to our beautifully maintained home and prime riverfront setting, we pride ourselves on genuine hospitality. From thoughtful touches to responsive support, we ensure every stay feels seamless, warm, and welcoming.
Local Winery Partnerships | Elevate Your Stay with Complimentary Tastings
As a WC Lodging guest, you’re invited to elevate your Wine Country stay with complimentary tastings at three small, locally owned wineries—Croix Estate, Merriam Vineyards, and Orsi Family Vineyards.
(Guest of record must be present for all tastings.)

• Merriam Vineyards – Family-owned estate crafting elegant, Old World–inspired Bordeaux-style wines; $35 value per guest, complimentary for up to six guests
• Orsi Family Vineyards – Locally loved for expressive Italian varietals like Sangiovese and Schioppettino; $35 value per guest, complimentary for up to six guests
An unforgettable way to toast your Wine Country getaway—cheers to delicious moments ahead!
Perfect for Groups:
Redwood River Lodge, River View Lodge, Riverbend Retreat, and Heron House are all located on the same quiet street. Rent multiple homes for extra space, privacy, and shared riverside memories.

• Carport height clearance: 8’
• Carport length clearance:
– Gate closed: 25’
– Gate open: 32’
• For everyone’s safety, and due to our high fire-risk location, guests are asked not to use the indoor wood-burning fireplaces.
