The Tipsy Turtle offers cozy peaceful seclusion in the heart of Guerneville fun. The studio space opens onto a large furnished deck. Fully enclosed by a tall fence, the space feels very private. Guerneville is a bowl of sunshine nestled between the Russian River and majestic redwoods. It is a small town with a uniquely friendly open culture. The Turtle House is located a block from Main Street right in the heart of town but feels like its own little world.

    This was an excellent find for 2 adults(and possibly 1child). The location is prime for walking to everything in the town. The room and patio are nicely appointed. The only thing to suggest is a sheet for the day bed and a third pillow. Would stay again

    The Tipsy Turtle was adorable, clean, tastefully decorated and had plenty of opportunity for fresh air. We grilled both nights we were there & the little deck & grill were just perfect. It was a great location to wander through town & to drive to Armstrong Redwoods for our hike. Just perfect!

    Very charming place. Extremely clean and very well appointed. Within walking distance to the Russian river and many good restaurants. It only takes about 30 minutes to get to the coast and enjoy a beach day. Felt very safe and secure in this friendly little town.

    The location of the Tipsy Turtle is spot on. We were able to walk to the river, the great shops, restaurants and the grocery store. Wineries, Bodega Bay, Armstrong Woods and Jenner are minutes away. We can not wait to come back and visit.

    The place was small but cute. To be honest I expected a bit more based on the listing but since we were only there at night, it was adequate for our needs. Unfortunately, I didn’t find the book with the instructions and helps until I was cleaning to leave and went to write thank you note. Since the book was not labeled on the outside it would have helped to have it mentioned on the check-in message.

    This is a return trip to this sweet little space for us. So well designed and we never felt cramped. Great location. A decent variety of restaurants in Guerneville, and close access to Johnson’s beach gave us an easy time. Kayaking by day and dining out by night. Perfect Russian River getaway. Owners live right next door and are very responsive to requests and general communication.

    The Tiny Tipsy Turtle was absolutely lovely, completely secluded in it's own little bubble, close to a nearby beach and a great base camp for trips exploring the Russian River. The only detraction was that the street was a bit on the noisy side.

    The Tiny Turtle was a perfectly sized and located getaway for two adults taking a mini-vacation in Guerneville and the surrounding areas. The cottage had everything we needed, including high quality linens, furniture, appliances, hair care, etc, and a very nice and accommodating host, Inga. We loved being within walking distance of a great coffee bar/cafe plus bookstore, library, many cute shops and diners, and the main road in and out of town, plus up to the wonderful Armstrong Redwoods. The tiny outdoor patio with adorable fairy lights was a lovely place to start the morning and end the evening. We really cannot say enough good things about what a nice place to stay this was, how nice Inga was, or how great the location was. :)

    What a great place!! We routinely leave our coast home to avoid subjecting our dog to all the illegal fireworks so we've been to Guerneville a few times -but what a hidden gem this is! Thoughtful upgrades throughout with a lovely private front deck and super close to Main St -not to mention how communicative the owners are -make this a top choice for anyone visiting here!

    The Tiny Tipsy Turtle was perfect for our needs. Well designed to make use of a small space. As 2 adults and a large dog with a crate, we were just fine. The cleanliness and great use of space made our stay lovely. Having the deck/patio area was a nice bonus. Location was wonderful: walking distance to shopping, eateries and a beach.
