Dawn Ranch Lodge - Guerneville

Great price, great quality. Food at the restaurant was delicious! It was unfortunate they were not open for breakfast.

Loved the grounds and atmosphere, but our room was not ready at 4pm. When we did get into our chalet it smelled heavily of cleaning product. Enjoyed being within walking distance to the town and river. Perfect for reunions, etc.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Very small cabins, very basic, but set nicely among some redwoods. Probably overpriced. Ok for one night.

While the hotel staff was great and the room was pretty clean, this is a bare bones cottage with nothing more than a bed and minimal bathroom. I would not recommend staying here after September as the small electric wall heater was just barley adequit for our mid October stay. We were traveling with another couple and were the only people staying there. […] They did provide a better than average continetal breakfast. Read more

So if your reading the reviews, you already know that this place is pretty basic. Really cute cottages and awesome grounds, but the cottages are very basic. We had a poolside cottage. Bed and bathroom is what you are going to get, which was cool because thats what we were expecting :-) We had just gone up to the area for the night, so the room was perfect […] for what we were looking for...a place to sleep and shower :-) We did enjoy the walk down to the river, and the pool/picnic area, very nice. The restaurant was closed, so we did not get to experience that. Read more

The fact that it is walking distance to Johnson's Beach, site of the annual Russian River Jazz and Blues Festival is enough to make us rate these accommodations excellent. Teeny-tiny would be a good description, but perfect if your primary reason for being in your room (individual cottage) is to sleep. Didn't use the pool but it looked great and the […] bar/restaurant were GREAT...friendly and the food was excellent. Note...no TV, no wireless (at least that we could pick up). Clean, friendly, comfy. We'll be back next year. Read more

Clean, cheap, nice people!

I suspect you will either love or hate Dawn Ranch Lodge. I loved it. Here are the pros and cons... Let's atart with the cons: 1) the 'cabins: are basically 80+ year old one or two room shacks that have settled on their foundations to the point that they have rather unlevel floors and you may feel unsteady walking about...and there are gaps in the window […] and door frames; 2) Don't expect to be treated to "free" breakfast/coffee service as in most other hotels. They have a nice restaurant, but it's pay as you go. 3) The cabin is basically just a place to sleep in, with a bed (very comfortable) and bathroom facilities. There are no refrigerators or cooking facilities. Pros:1) they offer you a basic cabin to sleep in. 2) they really are pet friendly. Our Golden Retreiver loved the place! 3) Good central location in Guerneville. A good "base camp" from which you can explore the Russian River area. Read more

The single positive thing I can say about the place is the cabin was clean. Tiny tiny tiny room, with just enough space to get around the bed. No phone, tv, or internet. No ac and hotter than hell (no insulation), with a single small window that opened only part way. And no window screen, so no security if you wanted to try and cool the place down. […] Two crummy flea market bedside tables and a small chair, and nowhere but the floor for suitcase and clothes. The floor actually bounced when we walked on it. All that for way too much money. Left as soon as we found another place. A shame, as it could have been a great vintage motor court, if management made the investment and effort. As is, its a pit. Read more

The coffee was the worst that I ever had, I mean very bad! The reason is your water is not filtered from the tap! Your city has very bad tap water! I would also boil coffee maker with vinegar! You have got to do something, it was terrible!

We enjoyed our stay, the cabins are sweet and cozy. The grounds are beautiful with a lovely walking path down to the river. The only thing missing is a bath, the showers are very small and need to be updated.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The service at the hotel was pretty poor - front desk people would not raise their heads to speak to you. Rooms were "funky" but ok - as I know what I am getting in the Russian River area. These are mainly tiny cabins with no amenities. Overall, the place is ok if you get it cheap, but you will be disappointed if you are looking for a "nice" place with […] decent service. Read more

No TV, no phone, and the shower was the size of a motorhome stall. The room was damp and smelt moldy. The "cottage" was more like a tuff shed with electricity. Bed was small and uncomfortable. The lodge was nice, but the rooms were miserable.

Room was listed as in the "chateau" but was actually a sort of duplex building - two units with adjoing door - sliding lock on each side. Room was cute in a very rustic way, but cerainly not acceptable as two separate suites. Bath required flexibility to use the toilet, walls were not insulated between the two separate rooms. Door into the room was […] ill-fitting with large gaps, door between the two "suites" was worse fitting than entry door. The worst was hearing entire conversations of occupants of next room. No privacy, no concierge for an early check out. Read more

This is an older historic type hotel. The cabin was small but charming and clean, comfortable bed. The location was easy walk to town and Russian River. The price was good and came w/continental breakfast.
