Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1962, this multi-unit property is over 60 years old and is marketed as a 'value-add' opportunity. While the exterior shows some updates like mini-split HVAC systems and functional roofing, the overall infrastructure is dated and requires significant cosmetic and system updates to transition from long-term rentals to a higher-end glamping or nightly rental model.
The rare K-zoning (Recreation & Visitor-Serving Commercial) permits immediate nightly short-term rentals, providing a significant value-add opportunity and bypasses common local rental restrictions.
With 9 cabins and 9 RV/trailer pads on a 1.28-acre lot, the property offers multiple income sources and the flexibility to transition into a high-yield glamping or tiny home resort model.
Located steps from the Russian River and downtown Guerneville, the property is perfectly positioned to capture high demand from visitors frequenting local wineries and the adjacent new County park.
Originally built in 1962, the existing structures and utility hookups likely require substantial capital expenditure to modernize and meet the expectations of high-end nightly rental guests.
Managing a high-density mix of 18 units across different formats (cabins and RV pads) demands intensive property management and higher maintenance oversight compared to traditional residential investments.
Rare Russian River income property zoned K (Recreation & Visitor-Serving Commercial) nightly short-term rentals already permitted. 1.28 acres of redwoods with 9 cabins (studio/1BR/2BR) plus 9 RV/trailer pads, currently operating as a stable long-term rental community. Zoning supports conversion to a glamping/nightly-rental model think vintage Airstreams or tiny homes on the existing trailer pads steps from the Russian River and downtown Guerneville. Adjacent to new County park and minutes to dining, and wineries. Continue the current income, reposition for nightly rentals, or blend both. A true value-add opportunity with cash flow from day one.
