"Beautiful location, Very family friendly w/ lots for kids to do. The owner was there on the premises to help check you in and explain the shared facilities. The building is old and rustic, but comfortably furnished. All the wood and age of the structure limits sound proofing, so light sleepers may want to bring ear plugs. Guerneville Lodge is close to everything - Mainstreet shops, the Russsian River, Johnson’s Beach and the Armstrong Woods! There are even camping spots for rent, for those who really like to rough it."
