My partner and I have stayed here for long weekends 2 or 3 times each year over the past decade. (After stays at 4 other good Guerneville locations, this became our favorite.) We have enjoyed cabins with wood burning stoves; gas fireplaces, and kitchens (where we've prepared 3 of our Thanksgiving dinners.) Our favorite time to visit is winter, when... more

After finding this retreat online, and checking it out on TripAdvisor, we booked it directly by phone. It exceeded our expectations. It was quiet, rustic, comfortable, and welcoming. Our hosts, Lynette and Ken, could not have been more gracious or helpful. Not fancy, not luxurious, not pretentious, but not rundown or shabby. We were there for 5 days, and I... more

The Highlands Resort is probably one of my favorite places! I've been twice in two years and stayed for 3 nights each time. Ken and Lynette are gracious hosts and the property is beautiful & quiet. (great remodel on all but 2 cabins). I'm not quite sure why an earlier reviewer claims that it is not dog friendly. On both... more

We once owned a beach home in REMOTE Mexico that we rented out. Some guests said they really wanted a quiet area, a place to read and relax without TV and radios. Most were content. A few really wanted the Ritz. So what are you really looking for? GLBT friends, my partner and I have been guests at the Highlands... more

My Boyfriend and I first came here in July 2002 for a few days and loved it so much that we returned in 2003,2005 and 2006! The only reason we did not return in 2007 and 2008 is that we were in Southern Cali! We will be back we hope early next year. That should say enough, Lynnette and Ken... more

The hotel calls itself as "pet friendly" - which is a scam. They only have two rooms for pets and they are allegedly always booked. I believe in truth in advertising and think that this sucks. Also, when I was there last, there were a lot of kids running around and some guys were "blowing" in the jacuzzi - hardly... more

Lynette McLean, Owner/Manager

Highlands Resort is pet-friendly. Out of our 16 units we have 3 that are pet-friendly. (check our website for the cabin descriptions and rates – each pet friendly cabin is noted) Our resort is an adult resort that caters to the LGBT community and we allow nudity at the pool and hot tub so we don’t attract many families. Anyone...

My partner and I initially spent four or five days at the start of a three week tour of California at the Highlands but we loved it so much, we rearranged our plans and went back there toward the end of our vacation as well. We couldn't get enough of the beautiful nature and friendly atmosphere here. The resort's owners,... more

I stayed at the Highlands resort for 2 days - Wed through Fri - with my partner. It was the first time for us in Guerneville. The place is just fantastic. Only a couple of minutes walking from "downtown" Guerneville, the resort is surrounded by the redwood forest, and has a swimming pool where you can sunbathe naked all day.... more

My partner and I recently stayed at Highlands Resorts during the “Lazy Bear” event in Guerneville. We rented a “deluxe king” cabin that included a Jacuzzi and small fully equipped kitchen with a coffee maker. The room was recently renovated, clean and the bed was new and comfortable. The resort is comprised of a small number of cabins located in... more
