River's Bend - Your ultimate River Destination

River's Bend is a 3 bedroom, two full bath home surrounded by large beautiful redwood trees. There is a large deck around the house and a lower deck located right by the Smith River.

After a day of swimming, fishing, kayaking, rowing, biking, hiking or exploring, you can return to the house to relax for a BBQ, roast marshmallows or just enjoy the river view only 30 feet from the deck. The large living room and fully equipped kitchen have large windows to enable you to cook indoors or outdoors while taking in the beautiful view including the flowing river. With 1 bedroom and a full bath downstairs, it is easy to get a restful night sleep. The two additional bedrooms and a full bath located upstairs provide an abundance of sleeping space for everyone and a great view of the redwoods that surround the property. Its best features are the surrounding redwood trees, close proximity to the river and its very own waterfall.

By the way, if River's Bend is booked for your desired time we have just opened up two more vacation rentals in Crescent City by the lighthouse. Check us out! Lighthouse Point is VRBO #2897216. This is a 3 bedroom, 3 bath house that sleeps 8 in beds. Cottage by the Sea is VRBO #2923254. This is a very cozy studio with a full bathroom and kitchen. Both houses are a very short walk to the beach.

Close to Redwoods!

Very nice location. Kids enjoyed swimming in the very calm and clear river. Amazing redwood trees on the property. Wonderful sound of a small babbling creek running along side the property. Very nice kitchen remodel. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Perfect!

The house was the perfect size for our family of 6 and could have easily accommodated more people. The room upstairs was great for the kids. The river and the view was gorgeous. Unfortunately the hot tub was not working during our stay.The location was great, we easily made the drive to Crescent City daily and also to many hikes in the Redwoods.

River House Birthday Weekend

Even in the winter, it was a magical stay to watch the water in the river rage, over coffee or from the hot tub. This is also, by far, the best well stocked vacation house we have ever visited. Wonderful stay!!!

Just a great place to stay! The house is comfy and has everything you need, more in the kitchen than any of the other VRBOs I’ve stayed in. River is as advertised, beautiful and clear. Would recommend!

This property was in an excellent location for our family to explore the redwoods and the near by ocean towns. The setting on the river was beautiful and we enjoyed all the amenities, such as kayaking and games. The house could use a little updating, but still a great place to stay!

Cold and rainy on this trip, could not ask for a better spot on the river. Only complaint we had was the hot tub was dirty. We were really looking forward to spending our time in the tub, but not this trip.

Enamored by Smith River

Wonderful property and stay. The home is right on river and has everything u can need for a comfortable stay including a jacuzzi overlooking the river. Property was near redwoods and wonderful trails. When not on river, we were hiking with redwoods and vice versa. It was 2 of us and a little parrot. Lovely time had by all. Thank u

Best spot on the river

This was our second time staying at Rivers Bend and we will be back. Location is the best with its own private access to the river. The house is supplied with all the things you need and even things you didn't think you needed. We always have a great time watching the birds and otters in the river. Dave is a great host.
