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 oroutdoors 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.

    Fantastic views of the Smith River from the hot tub and dining room and which was just a staircase away! Liked having an EV charger and a clean house with a kitchen that had plenty of utensils, plates and cookware (we would have loved a kettle!). Please fix the fishing rod situation as only 1 was in working order out of the 6. It was also extremely cold in the house when we arrived and the water had not been turned on.

    HANDS DOWN the best Air B&B we've stayed in!!!! The home is older and has a quirky layout, which worked well for our family. We used the kayaks and paddle boards and we're in the river until the sun went down, then we hit the hot tub. If you're a water family you'll love it there!!! Pricey but worth it.

    Best rental house on the Smith River! This was our 3rd or 4th time here and it's still our favorite rental house ever. Fully stocked with every possible thing you might need. The hosts are great and very helpful and the location is unique in that is has the best access of any rental house on the Smith River. Even my barely mobile 84 year-old mother-in-law could get down to the beach to watch us kayak and swim. My only tiny complaint is that the knives in the kitchen were almost too dull to use, so bring your own if you plan on cooking a big meal. The kitchen is great for cooking for a large group because it's open and you can chat while cooking. Wish I lived here!

    My family of 5 adults and 2 children under 10 really enjoyed our stay. This home—it truly felt like a home—had the best river access of any property we’ve stayed at previously. We had the chance to see otters from the river view deck, we all enjoyed swimming in the river, and the kids enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit when the river was a bit too chilly. The beds were comfortable, kitchen was well stocked with cookware, and the location was perfect for us as we made numerous trips to Oregon, Hiouchi, Jed Smith State Park, and Klamath. We had one small issue with a faulty fire alarm, but Dave was easy to contact and quick to reply. We loved our stay, thank you to the Powells for allowing us to stay in your lovely home for a memorable family vacation. We would definitely stay again.

    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!

    Great week with family - this house had plenty to do and plenty of room for indoor and outdoor activities! We came for spring break and lots of rain but never a dull moment. Great set up for a larger group.

    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.

    This house was the perfect space for my family of 7. Large kitchen, family room, and dining area. We've rented several vacation homes and this was the most well stocked with kitchen supplies, towels, bedding, games, toiletries, etc. Our family enjoyed the outside space when it didn't rain. We used the hot tub once, enjoyed the river access and views, and the BBQ. This was a great location on a quiet street and wasn't too far from town when we needed to get gas and groceries. It was also near Kellogg beach which was nice. The only hiccup we had was a slight delay in the key code being activated for our entrance to the home. I texted the owner but ended up just calling him after waiting a little bit for a response. I will also add that the home was tidy but could use a good deep clean. There were noticeable cobwebs which might be hard for someone with allergies. It was a lovely place to stay and would be great to experience in the summertime with that beautiful river. I would bring my family here again and would definitely recommend it to family and friends.
