Walls and doors were scuffed throughout, just needed some TLC. Grounds are gorgeous and enjoyed food at restaurant. ##### Amanda-Abundio Stayed 1 night in Jan 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John Oct 31, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Wonderful property with great amenities and excellent customer service.

The staff at the restaurant were really nice and professional but the spa receptionist was impolite and dismissive. This was a bummer because we were on a girls' trip and spa was supposed to be a big part of it but we had to do something else because the behavior we encountered at the spa when we went to inquire about services for the next day was not acceptable. ##### Pardis Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Vivian Nov 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Check in staff was a little un-hospitable - very transactional. The room was freezing and water would not warm past like warm (over at the Grove). Staff made up for the poor check in experience the next day- extremely warm and professional offering to switch rooms. The Spa staff was incredibly attentive as is the bar staff. The property is adorable- cozy, rustic but high end. The event activities (yoga) are also wonderful! Would definitely stay here again! ##### Vivian Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jennifer Dec 8, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Love this place.

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 . ##### Teresa Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Ashish Apr 10, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful property location and courteous staff ##### Ashish Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Marlowe Jun 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Helpful staff and serene location.

Probably safe from before being overrun though as it was not crowded. The restaurant, on the other hand, is very popular which can be a problem if don’t want to leave the property. Mixed blessing there but food and cocktails are extremely good. ##### John Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lee Ann Sep 27, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The property is meticulously maintained and has beautiful grounds.

The cabin was very small. Only room for a bed, two night stands and a cabinet. Near everything we needed; Safeway and good restaurants. ##### Ronald Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Anne Nov 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities We were pleasantly surprised with our stay at the newly revamped Dawn Ranch. Went for a couples weekend and did the cottage, spa, dinner. Cozy fun vibes. Reduced stars for cottage being a little cold/drafty (that’s me), spa being a little intense about the rules, and restaurant as well. They had to turn away sooooo many ppl without reservations so def make them for dinner! Free wine tasting and excellent masseuse a plus. ##### Anne Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ## Explore a world of travel with Expedia - [Lodging](?equalTargetTab=tab-0) - [Flights](?equalTargetTab=tab-1) - [Packages](?equalTargetTab=tab-2) - [Cars](?equalTargetTab=tab-3) - [Vacation Rentals](?equalTargetTab=tab-4) - [Things to Do](?equalTargetTab=tab-5) - [Autocamp Sonoma](https://www.expedia.com/Guerneville-Hotels-AutoCamp-Russian-River.h18965397.Hotel-Information) - [West Sonoma Inn & Spa](https://www.expedia.com/Guerneville-Hotels-West-Sonoma-Inn-Spa.h3049474.Hotel-Information) - [Cottages on River Road](https://www.expedia.com/Guerneville-Hotels-Cottages-On-River-Road.h898926.Hotel-Information) - [Guerneville Lodge](https://www.expedia.com/Guerneville-Hotels-Guerneville-Lodge.h8680661.Hotel-Information) - [Santa Nella House](https://www.expedia.com/Guerneville-Hotels-Santa-Nella-House.h10131011.Hotel-Information) - [The Woods Hotel - Gay LGBTQ Cabins](https://www.expedia.com/Guerneville-Hotels-The-Woods-Hotel.h10241469.Hotel-Information) - [Sabor Mexicano Vacation Retreat,](https://www.expedia.com/Guerneville-Hotels-Sabor-Mexicano-Vacation-Retreat.h34341065.Hotel-Information) - [Mine + Farm, The Inn at Guerneville, CA](https://www.expedia.com/Guerneville-Hotels-Mine-Farm.h894082.Hotel-Information) - [Surrey Resort](https://www.expedia.com/Guerneville-Hotels-Surrey-Resort-And-Gym.h75274102.Hotel-Information) - [Highlands Resort - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.com/Guerneville-Hotels-Highlands-Resort.h92401317.Hotel-Information) - [Boon Hotel + Spa - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.com/Guerneville-Hotels-Boon-Hotel-Spa.h45605724.Hotel-Information) - [The Stavrand Russian River Valley](https://www.expedia.com/Guerneville-Hotels-The-Stavrand-Russian-River-Valley.h66131912.Hotel-Information) - [Johnson's Beach](https://www.expedia.com/Guerneville-Hotels-Johnsons-Beach.h103493087.Hotel-Information) - [Boho Manor Resort - Room 26](https://www.expedia.com/Monte-Rio-Hotels-Boho-Manor-Resort-Room-26.h88206802.Hotel-Information) - [Boho Manor Resort - Studio 30](https://www.expedia.com/Monte-Rio-Hotels-Boho-Manor-Resort-Studio-30.h88493805.Hotel-Information) - [River View Garden Resort](https://www.expedia.com/Monte-Rio-Hotels-River-View-Garden-Resort.h37962305.Hotel-Information) - [Boho Manor Resort - Room 22](https://www.expedia.com/Monte-Rio-Hotels-Boho-Manor-Resort-Room-22.h88205360.Hotel-Information) - [Boho Manor Resort - Studio G](https://www.expedia.com/Monte-Rio-Hotels-Boho-Manor-Resort-Studio-G.h87914795.Hotel-Information) - [Highland Dell Lodge](https://www.expedia.com/Monte-Rio-Hotels-Highland-Dell-Lodge.h37744653.Hotel-Information) - [Boho Manor Resort - Room F](https://www.expedia.com/Monte-Rio-Hotels-Boho-Manor-Resort-Room-F.h88493739.Hotel-Information) - [Flights to Sonoma County](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-Sonoma-County.d553248621593965866.Flight-Destinations) - [Sonoma County Vacations](https://www.expedia.com/Sonoma-County.d553248621593965866.Destination-Travel-Guides) - [Car rentals near Sonoma County](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-Sonoma-County.d553248621593965866.Car-Rental-Destinations) - [Sonoma County Vacation Rentals](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-Sonoma-County.d553248621593965866.Vacation-Rental-Destinations) - [Things to do in Sonoma County](https://www.expedia.com/Things-To-Do-In-Sonoma-County.d553248621593965866.Travel-Guide-Activities)
