Dawn Ranch

River access with a dock, complimentary river tubes and chairs, gorgeous pool with a strong jetted hot tub, gorgeous landscaping, awesome location, pool snack bar has great cocktails and smash burgers. Picnic tables throughout. Beautiful details all around the property.

The restaurant does not serve regular ala carte dinner (only can dine la carte at 6 tall barstools, if there’s room ) and they are not willing to allow guests of the hotel eat at a table since they’re reserved for a $155 tasting menu… it was a gorgeous warm night and the bar was warm and stuffy and all we wanted was to be outside… lesson learned! On the flip side, breakfast was really good!

Fantastic location, beautiful setting amongst the redwood trees, accessible to the river, walkable to town and next door to the Safeway market. The resort had complimentary bicycles and kayaks and tubes, along with a nice jacuzzi and pool. The room was very comfortable although a bit small, but the bed was great, and there were lots of spaces for putting our things. The staff was very welcoming and responsive. We totally enjoyed celebrating our anniversary there. It made for a beautiful memory.

It would have been nice to have more food options at the resort and in town. Many places were closed on the Monday and Tuesday that we were there.

It was peaceful, perfect for us trying to get away from busy city living. The place was beautiful, surrounded by towering redwood trees.

Stayed midweek, restaurant was closed. We had easy access to outside restaurants though downtown.

Foliage around the property is beautiful; meals, although very very expensive, are good and high quality

Loads of false advertising. Access to spa amenities (sauna/steam room) needs to be booked through Resort Pass. This was sold out for entirety of our stay and staff told us the workaround was to book a $300 massage. Yoga location was incorrectly advertised, leading us to miss the only session. Dogs were allowed IN THE POOL, which was gross. Place is advertised as having 2 heated pools— every person who got into the pool remarked at how freezing it was. When I told staff, they suggested I use the hot tub instead. There was dog waste on the gravel path around the back of our cabin. WiFi was incredibly spotty. I shared my feelings about all of the above with guest services and there was nothing done to make our stay better.
