Mom's Beach (Forestville River Access) offers free parking and a short trail leading to a wide, scenic rocky beach on the Russian River, making it an accessible spot for swimmers and paddlers to launch or take out.

The beach features portable toilets (May-September), free loaner life vests during summer, and a lovely view of surrounding redwoods, though lifeguards are not on duty.

Note that alcohol and fires are prohibited, dogs must remain leashed, and the steep slope and rocky/sandy path to the water may be challenging for those with mobility devices.
