We stayed in one of the Cottages of the Dawn Ranch in May 2024. It was our first time in Guerneville and we decided to stay at the Dawn Ranch, after seeing the pictures and reading the reviews. Since we had booked a Cottage with King bed, there was ample space for a family of 3 (including a 4 yr old). The room was nice and clean and they had provided complementary water, tea and coffee. it was also good that there was no TV in the room, which gave us more time as a family to sit and talk and enjoy. The location of the ranch is also perfect, with the Johnson Beach very close by. In the evening, the guest services provided us smores, which my son really loved. Couple of areas which can be improved:- 1. The pool was not very clean, with some insects floating in the water. Also, they say that the water temperature is maintained, however the water seemed cold to me. Also the surface of the pool has some worn out yellow patches, which overall gave the impression that the pool is not well maintained. 2. Some of the cottages (the one which we stayed at) are not on the main property and there is no guest services at the Grove, so for smores of other things, you have to walk down (short walk - across the road) to the main property. Also, the main property is more fun than the Grove.
