About

Bar: Full bar

Most hotels either lean fully rustic or fully polished. Dawn Ranch splits the difference with century-old history and modern comforts, all on the Russian River. Originally an apple orchard bought with eight gold coins in 1905, it later became a guest ranch. Two rare Dawn Redwood trees (once thought extinct) grow on site. The dining room serves farm-to-table cuisine with Argentine and Brazilian influences, open for breakfast and dinner.

You can book a tent cabin or a standard room, and your dog is welcome. There is a full bar, happy hour, outdoor seating, and free WiFi. Hours run morning and evening, with breaks in the afternoon. Regulars know the lodge dining fills up; reservations help. If you want a spa day, nearby Boon Hotel and Spa is a short drive.
