Guerneville Clearheart Grove: Dog-Friendly Redwood Cabin

Kitchen was disgusting and did not have adequate equipment to cook. Drain in the kitchen sink was filled with hair when I arrived. Coffee maker was so nasty it was unusable. Only one pan that was not covered in flaking off teflon. Using the microwave tripped a breaker and the person I contacted was unable to help me find the breaker box. No trash bag in the trashcan and no trash bags in the house. Outside there was a large trashcan filled with trash and water. Technically this place is steps from the river but there is no public access nearby. So unless you want to trespass through someone's property, accessing the beach is at least a 20 minute walk. Nonetheless, place is very cute and could be amazing - just wasn't cleaned properly before my visit and it is not set up for someone who would like to cook a basic meal.

Sweet, classic cabin in Guernewood! The home is old and clean. Fit our family (2 adults, 1 preschooler, 1 infant) with room to spare. Nice hot tub. A quick walk to a nice beach (turn right onto the highway, it’s the opening in the gate past the condos). WiFi at the house is a bit slow, but you’re on vacation—log off!

This is a classic Russian River cabin. It's small, but very cozy. It's got everything we needed. We loved the big deck and it's very quiet. Close to everything. Not fancy but a real value. We will come again.

I stayed here last year and hoped for the same experience this year. Cabin reminds me of places i stayed at in the area back in the 1960s. Kitchen was well supplied, nice bathroom, cabin was very clean, centrally located to everything and very reasonably priced. Hot tub was nice, clean and private. However, every chair or sofa was very uncomfortable with the sofa having a piece of plywood under the cushions for support. Mattresses very firm and uncomfortable, no extra blankets unless taken from other beds, no closet space, good tv choices but very limited sport's offerings, internet was inconsistent, over- grown bushes throughout the property hindered access to sunny parts and front gate barely hanging upright. I will not be reserving this property a third time.

Great place for a vaca w/Fido. Fenced yard, room to romp, cautious wildlife for some excitement (raccoon stayed in trees but dog had a blast watching it). Nice tub, cozy fireplace and comfy beds. Nice outdoor grill, a quick drive to Guerneville for supplies. Good stay!

They house is adorable! And we'll stock with things you might need. We really enjoyed our stay.

It was clean, cozy and peaceful! I loved this little cabin in the redwoods and I want to go back as soon as I can!

Dirty floors and WiFi that didn’t work There were trash under the butchers block and we had to wash some plates and pots before using them. The WiFi didn’t have connectivity and we repeatedly texted the team and it never got fixed. We ended up having to spend 20% of our vacation at the Starbucks to get our work done! What a terrible experience.

Super quaint cottage in the redwoods. The cabin is smaller than I had imagined, but had everything you need! We loved the old world charm-felt like we were at grandpa's hunting cabin! Hot tub was perfect and pretty private. Kitchen well stocked. Really appreciated the record player and VHS tapes, took us back to simpler times. The cabin has a large yard perfect for dogs to roam and play catch. Highway noise was fairly loud and access to beach was further than described-needed to walk on highway for a block to reach the public river access, but once there was very happy with the sandy beach and swim spot. Would return in a heartbeat!

Nicely maintained and comfortable cabin with fenced yard nestled into old growth redwoods with spa, porch and bbq. No river access but about one mile to Johnson’s beach and a short drive to public beach in Monte Rio. It even has a horseshoe pit! Our King Charles spaniel felt right at home. Major items were clean but railings on porch had a heavy layer of dust and there were open chip containers under the dresser, which of course our pup found. :) Overall very quiet and relaxing stay. Will definitely consider returning.

We very much enjoyed our stay. The cabin has vintage charm and the hot tub under the redwoods is amazing. It was quiet and clean, a perfect place to relax and enjoy nature. Coffee and grilling dinner on the deck, followed by a dip in the hot tub made for a very nice getaway.
