Description
Location: Mallard Manor enjoys peace and tranquility on a quiet country lane, but is less than a mile to downtown Monte Rio, with its public beach, boat rentals, movie theater, tennis courts, and restaurants, and a short walk to nearby Villa Grande Beach.
House: Mallard Manor is for the romantic who appreciates a spectacular view, architectural beauty, and luxurious, comfortable furnishings. Small, but with a spacious ambiance, this home features a truly breathtaking panoramic view, through a wall of glass, of the Russian River and the forests beyond. The stone fireplace, vaulted ceiling, skylights, and comfortable furniture make this a delightful retreat in winter as well as summer. The living area is open to the kitchen and dining area for four. The kitchen opens to a deck overlooking the river. Mallard Manor sleeps 4 in one bedroom with queen bed and a river-view window seat, and a queen sleeper in the living room. The bathroom has a tub/shower combination. If you want to stay connected, this home has high-speed Internet access.
Grounds: Perched high above the river, Mallard Manor seems to float in the air, yet the home is nearly level-in. Just outside the kitchen, there's a spacious deck with comfortable patio furniture and barbecue, perfect for outdoor lounging and dining. There is private river access with a seasonal dock and double kayak, but it is steep and not suitable for small children or people who have difficulty with stairs.

Payment Policies
PAYMENTS BY CHECK:
If you are paying by check, we allow you five days to return the signed contract with your payment. If there
is sufficient time, you pay 60% of the rent now and the remaining 40% plus tax, cleaning and damage waiver 30 days
before your arrival date.
PAYMENTS BY CREDIT CARD:
We accept Master Card and Visa. If you are paying by credit card, you must fax back your signed credit card
authorization and the pages of the contract requiring a signature as soon as you've had a chance to review the
contract. Generally we expect it the same day. We will charge the entire balance at once. If the booking is to
occur within ten days we will require credit card authorization by telephone and the charge will be run that same
day.
Once you book a house, that house is off the market to anyone else. Therefore, all payments for bookings are non-refundable unless we re-book the house, in which case there is a $50 cancellation fee. Although we generally do re-book given a reasonable amount of time, there is no guarantee that we will. Full refunds are available if flood warnings affecting your rental are posted within 3 days of arrival date. If prior to or upon your arrival, your house is not available due to any condition or problem beyond our control, we will move you to a reasonably comparable house, providing one is available.
