Ananda is a magical little cottage nestled in the hills above the Russian River. The name Ananda means bliss, and that's what you'll find at this private, serene hideaway. With a spacious living room, large sunny deck, and beautiful gazebo with a hot tub, you'll feel worlds away from the stress of day-to-day life. Yet Ananda has internet access in case you need to plug in, and you're only a few minutes from the river, ocean, quaint towns, and many, many wineries!
The spacious living room is furnished with a pleasing mix of comfortable, contemporary furniture and lovely antiques, for a rustic, homey feel that will have you totally relaxed. There's also a fabulous stone fireplace for those cozy evenings.
The deck at the front of the house opens out to a large sunny deck at the back. In front, you'll find a large Japanese maple that adds to the beauty and tranquility of the house. The huge, sunny deck along one side of the house has a large teak table and chairs that can seat six, as well as a lovely wooden bench and a wonderful hammock, which both provide more lounging opportunities. The four-person hot tub is sheltered underneath a gazebo.

Please note: this home resides in a noise-sensitive area and the owners participate in our Good Neighbor protection program. Our smart home technology will alert our team if excessive decibel or occupancy levels are detected, allowing us to reach out directly with a reminder of maximum occupancy and quiet hours. This technology is privacy compliant, and only monitors the presence of decibels and devices-not any personal conversation or information. Thank you for supporting our efforts to be good neighbors!
