Could be a gem…but
Unmatched dishes, one teaspoon, every surface and cupboards filled with glassware ( enough for a small commercial bar), multiple utensils but all in terrible condition (including pots and pans). Bathroom and closets stuffed with towels, blankets, miscellaneous junk, no hangars ( but no room for a single guest item). Exterior maintenance marginal with little yard work and a broken gate. If you like leaving your belongings on the floor or in the living room… this place is for you. Single handle faucets made control of water temp very difficult and the hot water was dangerously hot.

Lovely spot near the river. The house was small but has a lovely garden just perfect for enjoying a sunny morning. We didn’t take advantage of the hot tub or sauna - maybe next time!

Great Stay in Monte Rio
We had a great time in Monte Rio. This house is in a great location, is well appointed and very comfortable. We loved that it had a sauna and hot tub. We also loved the backyard; very private and nicely landscaped. I highly recommend it!
