"Cottages among the Redwood trees in Guerneville."

10.0

I stayed at the Grove across from Dawn Ranch. The cottages are nice, bathrooms excellent. Dawn Ranch serves a nice breakfast and dinner that can be a bit pricy. However the atmosphere is very lovely. If you need internet service know that it’s slow as the WiFi’s also. Guerneville can be spotty with internet service. Walking distance to restaurants makes the location a good one.

"Getaway"

10.0

A wonderful getaway experience so close to our home in the Bay Area. We will be regulars in the future. The grounds are beautiful, the food excellent, the cocktails even better.

"Disappointing stay!"

2.0

The Dawn Ranch is not handicap/elderly accessible. Rooms are VERY SMALL and potentially dangerous. The staff was disorganized and not helpful.

Very pretty area and cottage. Wifi didn’t work well and we weren’t told we’d be across the road away from the river.

"Beautiful property and great location but over priced for what you get."

8.0

Great location, wonderful restaurant, friendly staff, lovely being in nature and so close to River

For such a high price and what you get for it, feels a little overpriced. No amenities, no breakfast or coffee, no lunch available onsite, restaurant closed 2/3 nights we were there, no full bar at pool. A lovely property with friendly staff but not the best choice if you’re looking for a romantic vacation - more family/big group friendly. There was a tech company doing an off site while we were there using the public spaces, which took away from the romantic and peaceful feel of being in nature. The only free amenity while we were there was nightly s’mores (which were fun and delicious!) but the tech bros had taken over the entire fire pit area so there was nowhere for us to even sit. Checkout was at 11:00 am and cleaning staff was hovering by our patio by 10:59 am waiting for us to leave which felt a little over the top considering the property was practically empty on a weekday morning.

"Exceptional"

10.0

Our second time staying here and it’s always so beautiful. We love the nature, heated outdoor pools for our kiddos, complimentary yoga classes and kayaking . Just beautiful property! Only thing they didn’t have for both days we stayed was the complimentary coffee station at the lodge . They kept saying we have complimentary coffee in our rooms .
