Wife and I stayed at DRL on a trip to Guerneville. Price was right (and included 'continental' breakfast), liked the reviews on TA and photos looked nice so we booked in for one night. Very impressed upon arrival. Friendly staff gorgeous Russian River setting and uspscale bar/restaurant with imaginative menu had us looking fwd to stay. Looked like an excellent... More

We stayed in these adorable cabins for 3 nights during our friends' wedding. The food was excellent, the pool clean, the river accessible and Guerneville was weird and cute with some excellent gems. We did not, however, realize there was such a variety in quality of the cabins, so make sure you find out whether you have booked a slightly... More

Yes, they are cabins without TV/telephone, but that is exactly what we wanted. It was PERFECT. Very comfortable, clean cabins. (actually pretty large compared to some rooms, with a seating/fireplace area) We spent most time outside, wandering through the gardens picking fresh blackberries and apples from the orchard. Perfect WiFi, no issue there. Serene, beautiful, relaxing and not the "big... More

We look for pet-friendly properties when traveling, and this was our first stay at Dawn Ranch. We had a small cottage, wwhich offered just what we needed. No telephone or television, but WIFI access which was easy to link into. Accomodations were clean and comfortable. The property has river access, and is a short walk from downtown Guerneville. The cocktail... More

My husband, two kids & I were here for a 4-night stay last week and we had a great time. The grounds are really nice, and the location is good for getting to the coast or kayaking on the river. The staff were really nice and helpful, especially Bonnie on the reception desk (the other receptionists looked bored and put... More

Don't come if you want luxury and pampering. I was very comfortable here in my rustic 2-room cabin and loved the property itself: big rolling meadows, creeks, footbridge, redwoods, orchard. Paradise for children and adults who enjoy exploring; plenty of different quiet corners and meadows with sunny and shady areas. (With all the trees & creeks I thought there would... More

We couldn"t leave as it was a family wedding and the fact they took my money months before the day we... More

As a hotel professional, I know both perspectives - as a guest and as an operator. I did some research on this property and was initially frightened - so many TripAdvisor reviews I think are overly critical. We went to the Dawn Ranch Lodge for a family wedding. We are a family of 5, kids 5, 3 and 1 at the... More

My kids like camping, and I hate camping, so we decided to try the Russian River area and get a cabin as a compromise. We needed the kids (3yrs and 4 yrs old) to have a room to themselves, even if it meant they slept on sleeping bags and inflatable matresses on the floor, we needed a division of space... More
