Elements Austin Creek

We stayed at Elements for 3 days this past weekend and it was the absolute most perfect, peaceful, luxurious weekend getaway. We couldn’t imagine a better place to stay — fire pit, hot tub, redwoods, hammock, yoga room, beautiful outdoor bbq and patio with gorgeous views… and the residences were each unique in their own way. We’re lucky to have a place like this just a few hours from the city. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a small group getaway or a home base while you explore the area. We’ll definitely be back again soon!

Our stay at Elements was one of THE BEST, most peaceful and restful vacation getaways we’ve ever had! We brought our kayaks and paddle boards to enjoy the nearby Russian River, but never left the serenity of this extraordinary property except to walk along neighboring Austin Creek, and a short drive for dinner at the Blue Heron Restaurant in Duncan’s Mills. This property has it all –close to neighboring small towns, the Russian River and Jenner-​by-​the-​Sea, yet a feeling of complete tranquility, privacy and seclusion being on 3.5+ acres of redwood forest with trails and a fairy ring redwood grove, plenty of quiet areas for sitting and reading, hot tub, yoga studio, two guest houses, a main house with a large open sunny patio off the kitchen and living area, beautiful views, lounge chairs, built-​in stainless steel bbq, a majestic redwood farm table, fire pit area, hammock, water fountain, small pond and more! Simply spectacular in every way –a real respite away from it all! Elements is our new favorite getaway –which feels like being in the mountains of Lake Tahoe, but a much closer drive for us living in the north bay area! We look forward to our next stay in paradise –at Elements!

Beautiful location. Lovely house. Intimate in feeling, yet fit 60 people comfortably.
Great kitchen and outdoor bbq.

I love Elements! I spend a weekend at Elements Austin Creek with my cousin visiting from Seattle and we couldn’t have had a better time. The property is near everything one would want in the Russian River area and the property itself is luxury all the way. We cooked outside, had a fire in the firepit and had a great hottub. There is room for yoga and hammocks with tons of privacy among the Redwoods. There were just two of us and a dog, but Elements is wired for a large group and perfect for special events.
