We enjoyed staying overnight with our dog in a comfortable cottage!…read more We booked the basic studio. The bed was not super sturdy but it was comfortable enough for a 1-night stay. The bathroom was surprisingly spacious and large, with a full size tub/shower. There was a mini-fridge and a coffee maker. The cottage we stayed in had two studios, with a shared wall. Unfortunately we could hear the people on the other side of the wall whenever they were talking (and unfortunately they were talking very early in the morning), so keep that in mind if you're sensitive to noise and booking a studio. Right outside our cottage was the fire pit, which was lovely in the evening with supplies for s'mores! We loved how dog-friendly this property was. There was a dedicated pet relief area that was fully fenced off. The continental breakfast starts at 8:30 and has a decent selection. Check-in and check out process was easy. Parking was right outside the gate along the property. We would stay here again.

We had a wonderful stay at the Inn on the Russian River! We were a large family group of 12 people…read morestaying in five different rooms, and the property was a great fit for our group. The property has direct access to the river, including a small dock where you can fish, which was a highlight for our family. There's also a lovely fire pit area, and the s'mores kits were such a fun touch for the kids. We also appreciated the complimentary coffee in the morning. The large grassy area was perfect for the kids to run around and play, and there are plenty of games available as well, including board games and Jenga. These little touches made it easy for the kids to stay entertained and enjoy the property. The rooms are on the smaller side, but having a mini refrigerator in each room was incredibly helpful when traveling with kids, especially with a larger family group. The owners were exceptionally nice, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay. It's clear that they take a lot of pride in the property and genuinely care about creating a great experience for their guests. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would happily come back. It's a charming, family-friendly spot with thoughtful amenities and a beautiful setting right on the Russian River. It was especially nice having a place where our entire family could stay together and enjoy the property.

5 star stay all th way. We came out with family for the week and had plans to go to the beach and…read moresee other parts of the river but it was pointless. For us this place had it all. Downtown was a short walk (groceries, pizza, sandwiches, anything you need) and on the property there were kitchen spaces for us to hang out with plenty to do on the property. Rooms #11 & 12 were amazing. 11 is the larger room and larger bathroom with 2 full beds. 12 has a pullout sofa and full bed. Easily sleeps 2 couples in each room or mom and dad and 2 kids, but that's not what you're there for. Outside (if you take both spaces) is a large outdoor deck divided in half by a wall but connected so you can get from one room to the other. It has a shared yard beyond that. The landscaping is amazing. The property is on the river with tons of space to chill in the water. They have a deck for the facility and everyone can use it. It's shared so be prepared to be with other people but it is a place that seems to attract a good crowd. Everyone who we ran into there was nice. Another thing on the property they was cool was coffee, fresh ice cold filtered water, popcorn, and the front desk made the kids cotton candy daily. There is an ice machine there as well so you can roast in the sun and drink ice cold filtered water till you pop. That part of the place is in the outdoor kitchen which is community and has board games and seating for everyone. Outside the kitchen is bathrooms and seating areas. 2 fireplaces for s'mores and I believe a bbq pit (I can't remember we have a travel size Traegar they let us use) as well. If I were to get married or have a party it would 1000% be here. I think there is 12 rooms and I'd rent the whole spot for it without even thinking twice. Maybe bring extra help to keep the party rolling but this place legit is perfect for it. They also have like a VIP outdoor seating area we didn't end up getting but has a TV and some "roped off" area to hang out at that is an amazing setup. I can keep going but we loved this place. Even upon arrival our room had spiders have babies in the room (happens yall it's on the river and def outdoorsy) and my wife felt awkward asking because we didn't want to sound like the complaining people but we asked for a vacuum to get them out. The lady actually came in the room and helped us. 5 star stay. 5 star people, oh and being a licensed contractor and getting along with people who work, the people who kept the grounds were cool too. Super nice to our kids, and when you see the landscape, you can tell they are good at their job. Can't say enough good stuff. We will be back.

This review is based on the price point I paid ($189) for one night. If I paid the normal rate…read more($300) I would've been more disappointed. This Inn is walking distance to downtown which is what drew us to this location. Ve was our host and she was very nice and gave us a short tour around the place. I was confused because we were told we could use the heated pool and then, when we went to go use it, there were multiple signs saying it's closed. The walls are thin, you can hear everything occurring in the hallway. Our room needed love. There was lots of dust build up, the television was extremely small, and the bed frame was very flimsy. The mattress was also quite hard and it was difficult to sleep throughout the night. I was looking forward to the speakeasy but it was closed throughout our stay. I'm not sure if it's closed for good or just wasn't open when I was there. There was no information given about it. We went out and came back to the Inn around 8 pm, there was an empty bottle of wine and dirty glasses sitting around the entrance area. I'm not sure if that was due to available tastings at the Inn or if someone just left it out because we were not informed of tasting offerings at the Inn. Breakfast was served between 8-10 and it was soggy French toast, warm yogurt and room temperature orange juice. All in all, I would not stay here again and I would choose to stay farther away at a nicer place.

You have a living room and small dining area, then you have a separate bedroom and bathroom. It is so private and charming. Their home sits on an acre of land, you have access to a large swimming pool, hammocks, gazebo, and outdoor chairs and tables. They provided cheese, crackers, some chocolates, soda, and water and a little refrigerator. They also provide an ice chest and picnic basket. Every morning we were treated to a gorgeous breakfast. It started with coffee and tea, croissants, and fresh fruit. Then the main entrée of an egg dish or pancakes arrived. The place was very neat and tidy, they have two wonderful old dogs on the property. One morning during breakfast we saw an entire family of quail having their breakfast outside of our window. There are birdfeeders and bird baths everywhere. I highly recommend this place.

This was the perfect spot for my final summer getaway. Honestly, when I first looked at the…read morewebsite and saw that it was part of Summerhome Park and that there were activities for children, I was a bit skeptical about how much of a hideaway it would be for a group of adults. I imagined hearing children shrieking and playing all over the place. When we pulled up to the house, I was very happy to see that the community of homes is VERY spread out, so the home is pretty secluded. We walked up the stairs to find a very cozy home and guest house. The first night was spent cooking, drinking wine, and hanging out in the hot tub. The kitchen is well-stocked with utensils, so we cooked breakfast and dinner here each day. We were close to the river, so we spend the second day kayaking. The home has a TV/DVD player, so when we were exhausted in the evening, we could relax and watch movies or play some of the games available in the house. Wineries are not too far, so we spent the third day wine tasting. We had a great vacation, and we hope to return next summer!

Dawn Ranch is in the best location, on the west side of downtown Guerneville on Highway 116. Park your car and walk 5-10 minutes to all the restaurants, bars and shops downtown, and the river. This sweet spot offers glamping tents, cottages, chalets, cabins and bungalows - something perfect for everyone. This is an excellent choice for a romantic getaway for two or for a large family reunion - and it's dog and family-friendly. We stayed in a Meadow Chalet this time, which is perfect for a couple. We loved the front room with a small sofa and the two-sided fireplace, which we used every night and morning when it was chilly. I also love the bungalows and cottages. Be sure to look carefully at the website and select the room and location that suits you best. I like lodging in The Meadow and The Spa area best. The Green area is great if you have dogs and/or kids. They have lawn games there and it's perfect for the classic summer camp vibes. The Grove area is cute, it's across the highway. Dining options at Dawn Ranch are truly exceptional! They offer breakfast, lunch, brunch and dinner (note day/times vary.) Dinner on the deck under the redwoods or in the stunning dining room is unforgettable. (Check out the new floral display on the ceiling!) The tasting menu is a FEAST and perfect for a special occasion. ‍ ‍ ‍They have a beautiful full service spa on the property. Book a massage and soak in a redwood soaking tub on the deck first to relax. They also offer yoga, forest bathing and other wellness options. Be sure to check out their midweek and seasonal offers. Their entire staff is welcoming and attentive. I love that they texted us every day to see if we needed anything. This is our second stay and we're already planning our next visit! Thank you team Dawn Ranch for another perfect stay!
