Family-friendly holiday rentals in Salmon Creek

Really enjoyed our stay at Kelly’s in Duncan’s Mills—this place had it all! Beautiful scenic views right off the back balcony and easy river access, made us feel immersed in nature. Plenty to do with your own private dock, kayaks, bikes, hot tub, and nearby town/shops just a mile down the road. Would definitely recommend this spot for a relaxing and fun getaway. Kelly was also an excellent, responsive host and helped make our trip nice and smooth. Thank you!

Mary's cabin was a delightful stay! It's nestled in a charming little town. Coming from the city, being sorrounded by towering redwood trees felt magical, especially when stepping outside just before sunrise, breathting in the crisp air, and listening to the soothing sounds of nature. During our stay we explored Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve, Johnson's Beach, and even took a quick trip down to San Francisco which is just an hour and half away. Overall, great spot!

We had a great stay! Christopher was very helpful and accommodating in all our communications.

My wife and I stayed here for our 5 year anniversary and I couldn't have found a better spot to get away to. It was such a cozy and peaceful location, and Aaron's home had everything we could ever need during our stay. The views were incredible, and the weather was fantastic. Aaron provided an extremely detailed guide to the area that helped us get a feel for where to go and what to do, and we hope to come back someday and stay again to experience more of the beauty of the surrounding area!

I almost don't want to tell you how good this place is, so we can rent it again sometime. :-) But it's that good. We visited over spring break with our daughters, eight and 11, and had one of the most amazing stays we've ever had at an Airbnb. The home, the land, the pool, and the local area are all 100% amazing. And the sunsets. You know how you sometimes stay at Airbnb's where you feel like the hosts did the bare minimum to qualify to list it? This is *not* that place. There is everything you need and more. Thank you so much SatKartar!

I loved this place. It was beautifully decorated and had amazing views. The pool was an added benefit on hot days! It’s somewhat small for a group because it only has one bedroom but still worth the experience.

We had a great stay at Adam’s place in Monte Rio. The beds were both very comfortable, and the whole space felt really welcoming. The property is beautiful — the landscaping is well cared for, and the herb garden was such a nice touch for cooking. The kitchen had everything we needed, plus a great selection of cookbooks. The hot tub was a definite highlight, and the view of the river made the beautiful backyard even better. We loved being able to swim and kayak in the water, and the neighbors were friendly too, which added to the relaxed vibe. Would definitely love to come back!

The sound of waves was incredibly soothing and the views were so relaxing. A great place to relax and reconnect. The space was incredibly clean and efficient. My only wish is that we could have stayed longer. Until next time!

We really enjoyed our time here and extended for an extra night. Majestic views of tomales bay/dillon beach from all rooms/deck and 5 min drive down hill to dillon beach which is dog friendly. The dogs had a blast splashing around in the natural tide pools at low tide.

Place was a great getaway and Linda was an excellent host. As a solo female traveler, I felt very comfortable and safe. I walked around the neighborhood a lot with my dog and neighbors were friendly.

We had a wonderful stay at David's TreeHouse Cabin! The redwoods surrounding it set the perfect backdrop for a morning on the front deck or a night on the back patio stargazing. The floor-to-ceiling windows and skylight really make you feel up in the trees, and we really loved cozying up by the wood fireplace in the evenings. Bathroom is small but gets the job done. Relaxing and a perfect retreat!

Chad’s place is beautiful. We had a wonderful stay, and so did our doggy! Walking distance to the beach and you have a view of it from the balcony. Chad is very communicative and responsive. Highly recommend!

Really nice and comfortable apartment. Convenient to town but located in a quiet rural area. Would definitely stay again if I come back to Sebastopol. I visited on a hot weekend and having the windows open without AC worked out fine.

Private cabin, walkable to town and beach , close to so many trails and parks! We were looking for a place where we could have privacy but close to nature, with a place to eat in, as well as nice places to eat out if we choose to. This was perfect. The cabin is surrounded by redwoods, which made it perfect temperature even on warmest days.

My husband and I (along with our 6 month old and our dog) enjoyed a perfect Fathers Day/Birthday weekend at Dennis's cottage! The location couldn't be better - so easy to grab provisions or a quick bite around the corner at the general store, and amazing to be able to walk to the beach in just a few minutes. The cottage is cozy - just the right size for two adults and a dog - with everything you need. Having a washing machine was extra convenient, and the balcony and fire place made for relaxing evenings. We love Dillon Beach and are so happy we found this place! Don't hesitate to book :)

I went there with two of my kids when my wife and oldest was out of town. We want to go back when they’re in town. The only downside was both kids got bitten up by bugs. Next time I’ll bring more repellent

Nice unit. We did have some plumbing issues with the toilet but the front desk was able to assist. The AC unit also kept reseting itself to 75°. The air circulation is weird so it caused the unit to be extremely hot at night. Otherwise, the property was nice. Will definitely reserve again.

My husband and I stayed here for our anniversary trip. It was the perfect place, Kathy was very friendly and gave us so many recommendations around town to check out! The pool and hot tub were very clean and the perfect temperature. She even gave us a welcome bottle of wine and breakfast goodies! Definitely would recommend staying here to all my friends and family.

Eliza's place was wonderful for us (two parents and a 4 month old baby) for a weekend - we had everything we needed and it was incredibly easy to check in and out. Eliza and her family were there and great to spend time with, but we also felt we had space to ourselves to rest and relax. We will hopefully be back!

This place is increíble! Hosts were friendly and proactive. The pool was heated to a perfect temperature and the view is unbeatable. The recommendations for hikes and restaurants were spot on. My husband and I had an amazing little getaway and we’d recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful, gorgeous place to stay!

We came a second time to Fred’s river home oasis. Our kids love the grounds and the stream is so peaceful. Pool is delightfully warm and with a Forest view. Come here for a nature escape. We will be back!

We had a wonderful stay at Chantelle's home. The location is ideal--tucked away on a quiet street and only 5 minutes away from Sonoma Square. We absolutely plan to rent her home again--it's perfect!

A great spot for a short stay in the Santa Rosa region! Vinay provided thorough, clear instructions and we had everything we needed. Location made it easy to visit sites/restaurants in the area.

We had an amazing stay at Mike’s place in Sebastopol! From the moment we arrived, it was clear this home was something special. The house is tucked away in a peaceful, secluded setting with stunning views of gardens, trees, and nature all around—total serenity. Inside, the space was a vibe. Tons of room to spread out, unique and stylish decor, and thoughtful touches throughout. One of our favorite features was the house manual, which wasn’t just informative—it included fascinating stories and history about the property that made the stay feel even more personal and memorable. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, and the full bar setup (complete with signature cocktail ideas!) was such a fun bonus. Whether we were lounging indoors or enjoying the scenery outside, we felt completely at home. Mike was an exceptional host—super responsive, friendly, and helpful with anything we needed. Would absolutely recommend this stay to anyone!
