Summer camp vibes

A beautiful place with rustic charm. It was a last-minute reservation, and I am very glad to have booked two nights. It isn't modern or flashy but, it is perfect for the riverside environment it inhabits. The host is very nice and works at making the common areas feel like home. There is a fun energy around the grounds that strikes memories of summer camp. Amongst the other guest that were mostly families, my partner and I enjoyed the social energy which the facilities are set to encourage. If you are up for fun this is the place to be.

Quaint and cozy lodge by the river and just off Guerneville’s main strip. We came to get out of the city for the weekend and the vibe of this place really makes you feel like you’re away from it all. Thanks for having us!

The lodge is very conveniently located 2 minutes from downtown Guerneville. The property is easy to get to, very close to the Russian River, and though the rooms are fairly tiny, and walkway is slightly noisy and slippery, we enjoyed its rustic charm.

Riverside retreat -- amazing location

if you are looking for upscale experience this isn't place for you. If you are looking to stay in a unique lodge with its own character with an amazing location, common kitchen area, meet and greet other guests. This is an amazing lodge for families, couples and elderly. We had an amazing stay and Elvin is great!

Great lodge and river experience

A great location on a busy event weekend. I love the rustic charm, the hospitality, the view of the river. The furnishings were homey and lodge style. The large room with a big fire place , the large deck and green space makes this a great river experience

GREAT PLACE (but don't tell too many people!)

It is an amazing, unique place, with tons of character and a real feel of being in a "lodge." The location is fabulous and all the "amenities" fit exactly with what we wanted to do. We'll be back!

Full of character and characters

Great property, great old building with lots of charm and beautiful grounds with easy access to the river. Easily walkable to town. If you want modern conveniences this is not the place for you. But if you prefer charm and character (including the people:) stay here.
