    This place is so dang charming. Beautiful River views and grounds. Our room had everything we could need to make us feel at home. Staff were super friendly and the owners were there, visiting on the grounds in the evening. They provide S'more kits, popcorn, water, ice, coffee and cotton candy! I'm happy to report that I had a S'more for the first time in about 30 years! Just a lot of personal touches, like a personalized note in our room that made us go awwwww. Great job RRI! Keep up the good work. We WILL be back, and for more than one night.

    Cozy, personal, welcoming! You feel like you're visiting Grandmas house at the lake. Little touches like they make cotton candy and give s'more packets. They have fireplaces with extra chopped wood there's extra toiletries and a cute coffee station in your room. A communal area has BBQs and tongs, coffee in the morning with a collection of cups; Nothing here feels corporate or commercial. The room was clean, spacious and the bed comfortable. The woman at the desk was friendly and soft spoken, chill happy vibe. They even left us a handwritten welcome note. Sent texts to communicate checkin and coffee! 100% recommend and will for sure stay here again.

    First time here and visited for 2 nights with my son. Stayed in a 2 bedroom with a balcony. It was perfect! Each room has their own tv and fan. Loved having my coffee on the balcony! Having the mini fridge and coffee maker was perfect. Bed was comfy too. Love the patio, the fireplace and the popcorn snack available in the afternoon. The s'mores kits are a very nice treat. The beach area was too muddy to enjoy. But the grounds are so peaceful and love the willow tree. Only small complaint is the road noise and the bathroom seat is not made for tall people. I look forward to coming back with my husband.

    The Inn on the Russian River was absolute PERFECTION for our wedding. Stunning river backdrop, beautiful river dock, amazing willow and redwood trees, immaculate shaded seclusion, plenty of space for all of our guests. We literally could not have asked for more. Monte Rio is a place that holds so many memories, and is so special to us. As our yearly space and time for river activities amongst the redwoods with our family and doggos, it was the clear choice when we were trying to find the best bay area accessible river/forest location for our wedding. Then when we toured the Inn, we just knew that the magically natural vibes were EXACTLY what we were looking for, and so we built everything else around it! Leonora, Cassidy, and Sarah were all so helpful and so supportive throughout the entire process. We loved that they were able to provide the grounds as a beautifully maintained and designed by nature blank space, and that we could then add anything and everything that we wanted to to bring our dream wedding to life. With 11 beautiful rooms to hold our family, bridal party, and ring bearer doggos; and all of the gorgeous airbnb and hotels available in the direct area for the rest of our guests, it was just a no brainer. It was so nice to be able to have our friends and families from across the country and the globe come out to celebrate with us, and then to have them be able to plan more extended vacations with their families to tour the redwoods, the coast, and the wine country that surrounded us there. It was just perfection. We could not have asked for more. Thank you Leonora, Cassidy, and Sarah for helping make our wedding dreams come true!

    We'll Be Back! We absolutely loved our stay at this amazing hotel! We stayed in Room #8 and had a stunning view of the Russian River right from our balcony - such a peaceful and beautiful spot. River access was literally just outside our door. The room itself was perfect - cozy, clean, and had everythingwe could possibly need: fridge, microwave, toaster, coffee maker, hot plate (with pans and utensils!), a ceiling fan with a remote, a nice TV with Roku, and even chairs on the balcony for relaxing with a view. On our first night, the power went out unexpectedly, but the owner, Leonora, handled it wonderfully. She gave us lanterns & battery pack for my blow dryer and straightener. Lol. We ended up building a fire in the outdoor fireplace - very romantic. The shower was excellent too - strong water pressure and plenty of hot water. Guerneville is about a 10-minute drive and we were thrilled to find some incredible vegan options in the area! Koala's Fine Food has fantastic vegan sushi we'll definitely be coming back for. Pat's International also has several plant-based dishes - we just missed it because they're closed on Wednesdays (note for next time!). If you're willing to venture a little further, Little Saint in Healdsburg is well worth the trip, and Sonoma Pizza Co in Forestville has great vegan options too. Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve is an amazing place in Guerneville for a peaceful walk among the redwoods or, a challenging hike to get your heart rate up. Highly recommend this place for a peaceful getaway with nature right at your doorstep and great access to nearby towns and eats. We can't wait to come back!

    Love this inn. It's my third visit and it's definitely more than 5 stars! Gorgeous floral garden, on the river, with swimming dock, outdoor rock fireplace where I roasted my complementary smores marshmallows! Enjoyed just-popped popcorn on the patio watching evening kayakers.

    Cute, quaint, rustic cottages in a beautiful river-view garden setting! Leonora and Cassidy were wonderful from the moment we booked - really went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable and to accommodate our special needs/requests; especially since we were traveling with someone with limited mobility/health condition. The groundskeepers were also so friendly. We felt so welcome and taken care of and look forward visiting again!

    Part of the grounds.

    I have been coming to the Inn on the Russian River for many years. I've always loved it, and it just keeps getting better and better. I love the new dock and the grounds are even more lovely than when I was here last summer: so many flowers, big lawn just steps away from the river, comfy seating. In my most recent stay in July 2025, we had a lovely, comfortable river view room with an extremely well stocked kitchen with lots of nice extra touches. The owner, Karen, and Cassidy, the manager, went out of their way to make our stay special. Karen even came by with delicious waffles, berries, and syrup one morning because she'd made extras. I can't wait to return!

    The fridge was on the much smaller size, but I was able to make it work.

    Cassidy was very helpful! She looked up & called restaurants for us. Her text messages kept me in the loop of the fresh coffee being available. She was just a text message away if we needed anything. Much better treatment than you get at a hotel. I will be coming back. Having 2 room availability is great when a sleeper is a snorer. My only recommendation: Please consider adding a counter top ice machine in the office for guests to use. They are inexpensive nowadays

    AHH!!!!! - Relax/quiet time.

    We have been staying at Inn on the Russian RIver for 7 years and we have always enjoyed it's peace, beauty, and relaxing pace. The new owners, Leonora (and Neal) have made some substantial improvements. The clean spacious rooms (some are dog friendly) - lawn games - fire table close to the river's edge - stone wood burning fire it - meadow to run your dogs - lawn chairs & swings to relax & watch the river flow by - updated gardens - oh and a brand new dock to fish off of, or jump off of into the river, what a joy! Guerneville and Armstrong National Reserve close at hand, not to mention 'Baked on the River' and Korbel. Looking forward to our next visit, Dellyn & Dellyn D.

    Look for this sign.

    In the past when the family and I visited the Russian River, we would often camp at Johnson's Beach in Guernville. We arrived at the Inn on the Russian River on Friday and are sadly leaving today. Originally, we were supposed to visit New Orleans, but the Delta Variant, the late imposition of mask mandates, and the stupidity of people refusing to get vaccinated changed our minds and we were able to book the Inn on the Russian River at the last minute. The inn sits on the banks of the Russian River in the tiny hamlet of Monte Rio right off of Highway 116. Just 4 miles east of the action in Guernville. Needless to say, if you want peace and quiet, the Inn on the Russian River is the place you need to stay.....except for the occasional car speeding buy. I'm not familiar with many of the other inns and motels in the area so I can't attest to their amenities and luxuriousness. The Inn on the Russian River is a simple, unpretentious place. It gives you a comfortable and quiet place to rest your mind, body, and spirit. The inn consists of 12 rooms and suites. Each of them offering different accommodations depending on the size of your party. There are rooms that overlook the river that have balconies attached to them. We were assigned room 5, which faces Highway 116. It is equipped with a surprisingly comfortable queen sized bed and a full size sofa bed in the living room. A small TV, coffee maker, microwave(Nota. Kerug machine, coffee is provided.), and fridge that actually gets cold. Wifi is offered as cell reception, depending on your carrier, is nonexistent. I found the Wifi to be pretty strong. There are ceiling fans in the bedroom and living room since room 5 doesn't have air conditioning. It can get pretty warm on the Russian River, but just open the windows or leave the front door open when you're in residence and you'll get a nice breeze. The bathroom is small and narrow. FYI-The shower is very tiny so if you're a bigger person or intend to have someone join you in your bathing ritual....it won't happen. The shower head doesn't sit very high at all so if you're above 5 feet tall, just be aware. Also, the inn is on a septic system so be gentle. The decor in room 5 is a hodgepodge of things. I was expecting more kitschy river stuff like pictures of bears in canoes, etc., but didn't find any of that. The couch was actually pretty comfortable to sit on and watch tv. I was surprised being that it was a sofa bed. There is also an additional chair and ottoman to relax on as well. The front porch of every room has two rustic wooden chairs and a small table for you to sit outside and enjoy your morning coffee or a bottle of wine (Morning or afternoon. I don't judge.). Access to the beach and patio area is a short walk behind the inn. There you will find an expansive green space with trees and a view of the river. It is a great place to relax and enjoy a bottle of wine, or do Yoga as one of our neighbors did. The beach that the inn offers really isn't usable. The shoreline is covered in foliage, but you can walk along a small trail along the shore and find a more usable beach. Since California is in a drought, the river is low, but still enjoyable. Monte Rio, where the Inn on the Russian River is located is a great location to use as your headquarters while exploring the area. As I said before, you are 4 miles from Guernville. You are also 6 miles from the town of Occidental, 10 miles to Freestone (Check out Freestone Artisan Cheese.) and about 45 minutes to an hour to the coastal communities of Bodega Bay and Marshall. All of the aforementioned places offer great dining options. Access to the legendary Bohemian Highway is literally around the cornet from the inn and the mysterious dark heart known as the Bohemian Grove is supposedly across the river, hidden in the dark mysterious canopy of the redwoods. If you are looking to go wine tasting, there are some wineries that are as close as 10 miles from the inn. Otherwise, you are an hour and fifteen minutes south to Sonoma, and and about 30 minutes north to Healdsburg, Geyserville, and the Dry Creek Valley. Calistoga, St. Helena, and the wine bully known as Napa are about an hour or more east of the inn. Monte Rio has a few restaurants, but other than that, it is a sleepy little place that rolls up around 6 or 7 at night. There is a small convenience store directly across the street from the inn that is reasonably priced and offers everything you might need without having to drive into Guernville. There are no gas stations in Monte Rio so make sure to fill up in Guernville or elsewhere. The Mrs. liked the Inn on the Russian River so much that she said she doesn't want to go camping again and wants to make an annual pilgrimage to the Russian River and stay at the inn. I'm right there with her. My daughter is indifferent to the whole experience as most teenagers are.

    Amazing homemade German food!…read more We tried this restaurant on a recommendation while visiting the area, and we were absolutely delighted by both the food and the service. We ordered the bratwurst, red cabbage salad, German potato salad, potato pancakes, spätzle, and Jägerschnitzel. Every single dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. It was honestly hard to pick a favorite because everything was so delicious, but if I had to choose, the Jägerschnitzel absolutely stole the show! For dessert, we had the freshly baked apple strudel, and it was the perfect ending to an incredible meal. You could taste how fresh everything was--from the flaky, buttery pastry to the warm apples and even the homemade whipped cream. It was absolutely delicious. This is a great spot whether you're dining as a couple or with a larger group. If you're planning to come with more than five people, I'd recommend calling ahead to see if they can accommodate your party with a reservation. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Guerneville!

Not inviting so we sat at a high boy in the darkened bar, which was much nicer. I'm sure it's beautiful to sit on the balcony in the summer on warm nights. We chatted with the German owner who was doubling as a bartender, who was very nice. We loved the German influences in the bar, as we had just been to Oktoberfest in Munich. The owner's daughter Sarah runs the kitchen. My husband had a pork tenderloin schnitzel "Vienna style" ($20) and I had a jaegerschnizel with mushroom gravy ($20) and both were excellent. We split the potato pancakes (two with sour cream and apple sauce, $12) which were served crispy but tasty. They had a nice German beer and wine list. We finished with a delicious apple strudel to complete a lovely meal. I recommend this restaurant for tasty dinners in a unique venue.

I read the spotty reviews, but thought the bad reviews were mostly due to the small size of many rooms. We had probably the nicest room, Deluxe River View Studio D, second floor with newer windows overlooking the river and a newly installed floor. Despite its history, fantastic location and charming grounds, I can't recommend this place at all (except to visit for a few hours on lazy afternoon on the river, like some locals did during our stay). Its best years are long, long gone. I ordinarily love these types of properties, and want to support them, but this place had a very poorly maintained structure, unkempt exterior, disorganized and insufficient staff, with obviously neglected gardens/grounds (tree/plant debris, cobwebs, dusty, etc.). "Deferred maintenance" probably best description for this place. It's obvious this place is barely hanging on. Our room was adequate, but the bed was rock hard, there was a huge cobweb over the bed, spiders in the shower, and the curtains to the tiny balcony (which was filthy and uninviting) were cheap and transparent (no privacy provided). The route, stairs and outside balcony leading to our room was dark and dirty - the hotel is located under trees and tree litter, cobwebs, and dirt/dust were everywhere. We were also the only ones staying there and no staff was on the property at night. Making matters worse, the room was absurdly overpriced. For the $350/night paid, I expected much, much higher quality throughout the property - inside and out, adequate staffing, a spotless room with higher quality furnishings and a comfortable bed. At $350/night, I expected a very different experience. If the room was $150 or $175, it would be easier to overlook its flaws and not feel like a sucker tourist. (We next stayed at The Madrones in Philo for the same rate - completely different experience and well worth it.) The few bright spots: the female bartender was friendly and accommodating, and the location with the interesting, terraced exterior leading down to the river. I would never recommend this place, and truly wish I'd selected something else in the area.

It was revolting. (picture attached) * Vanity looked new but top drawer would not open and close. The cabinet drawers were not aligned and unstable. Further, the insides of the drawers were already soiled and stained. (pictures attached) * No drawers for clothes. Where do we put our T-shirts? Underwear? Shorts? Pajamas? Lived out of suitcase. * No soap dish next to the sink. All of these, individually experienced, might have been trivial. However, collectively, they add up to an experience of being in a cheap motel. These were not the major issues. The three major issues we had were the flooring, the musty odor in the room and the dirty bathtub. * Floor was dirty. My wife took a picture of her socks after wearing them for under an hour. They were white socks and the feet were BLACK. (picture attached - this is not altered or edited in any way). * Musty smell. Like it had not been aired out in some time. * The bathtub was dirty, just unacceptable. Unfortunately, there is more but you get the picture. Caveat Emptor.

    We stayed two nights in the Redwood Suite at AutoCamp Sonoma and it was the perfect little getaway…read more The Airstream itself is so cozy, and I have to call out the bed specifically -- we've stayed at some great properties around the world, and the mattress in our Airstream gave us some of the best sleep we've had anywhere. Not what you expect to say about a trailer in the woods, but here we are. The suite came with a wood-fired hot tub, which was the highlight. Soaking out there in the redwoods at dusk with the Airstream lit up next to us is an image I'm going to be chasing for a while. Two people made the stay: Blythe at the front desk was absolutely wonderful -- warm, personable, and clearly someone who takes pride in her work and in making sure guests have everything they need. And Favian, who set up our wood-fired tub both nights, was so friendly and full of great recommendations for food and things to do in the area. Can't wait to come back.

    Spent almost $800 just for two nights of accommodation. I can't convince myself that this was worth…read morethe splurge. The highlight for me at this place was cooking privately at our outdoor grill the first night and not having to clean up afterward. Another fun memory was using their onsite bikes to ride around the outside of the premise. We did have to share road with moving vehicles so would not recommend this for visitors with small kids. This site was nearby a redwoods state park (requires driving) and walking distance to one portion of the Russian river (though you have to cross the highway 17 where cars travel very fast). I highly recommend the redwoods state park because of the picturesque setting and paved paths. Two nights two days was more than enough time to explore the town. Downtown had some cute restaurants and it also has a Safeway. For the price, I will not be back. But it was nice to experience it once.
