Beautiful quiet visit
Reviewed on 2025-10-19 by Keith F. , Chico, CA USProperty was clean and well furnished. Beautiful trees and landscaping. It was close enough to downtown and Armstrong without being right in the middle so very quiet and peaceful.

Beautiful Lodge
Reviewed on 2025-06-29 by Boris B. , Folsom, CA USA week spent at this beautiful lodge, in a great location, near to everything, would be remembered by our family!<br/>Nearest places to have nice meals, grocery store, vinery, a beach, redwood reserve with only 25 min to the pacific, would be a nice choice for most. <br/>Good communication with the vey helpful management was also a good addition to our stay.<br/>Thanks you!

Reviewed on 2025-03-17 by TAMI S. , NA, NOTAVAIL ZZThe house was clean and cozy. There were not enough sheets and pillow cases to make a bed on the futon. There was also an odd assortment of towels for the sixth person. It would be nice to have towels for the hot tub as bringing towels just takes up space and adds weight to luggage. There were ants, mostly in the kitchen, and we kept what food we had put away and the dishes washed after every meal we cooked there. The neighborhood was quiet and we felt safe. Guerneville was a cute town.

Glad you like the house overall and we hope to host you again. This home usually garners 5 star reviews.

House in the forest does not disappoint!
Reviewed on 2024-09-21 by , Norman, OK USMy girlfriends and I booked the Lazy Bear Lodge in September. It is a wonderful place to stay. We each had our own bedroom and bathroom. The deck is amazing with redwoods so close you can touch them. The linen closet was full of cozy quilts to snuggle into during the cool evening air. The deck makes the property. The description of the property is accurate. It does have a very steep driveway but it was easy to master. The property was well maintained. The only complaint we had was the beds were very tall and large for their rooms (in one room, hard to move around) and the sofa is so large, we found it very uncomfortable. Those small things would not keep me from booking again.

Peaceful Redwoods
Reviewed on 2024-04-13 by Amanda S. , san francisco, CA United StatesThe property was exactly as described, nestled into the redwoods with a private hot tubs and more than enough space for our small family. It was a short drive (or walk) to town and in between town and the armstrong woods. The property manager provided quick reply when we had questions and checkin/checkout was clearly communicated. We visited Armstrong Woods, the community center/Russian river near monte rio, and drove out to Goat Rock Beach.

Tranquility
Reviewed on 2023-10-16 by Tonya B. , Long Beach, CA USWe (married couple with dog) all loved this rental! The location was perfect, it felt out of the way but was conveniently close to town. It was so very quiet, even our sound-sensitive dog was able to relax, and that’s a great endorsement! The house was clean and had everything we needed, and special shout-out to the fabulous sofa! The redwoods surrounding the deck were fabulous and made it a lovely place to sit and just listen to the forest. Highly recommended.

Amazing Home!
Reviewed on 2023-04-09 by Traci F. , Chicago, IL UnknownWe were so excited to stay at Lazy Bear Lodge after seeing the photos, and the house in person was exactly what we expected! First, the basics: the house was spotless, well-supplied, comfortable and in excellent condition. We loved sitting in the Adirondack chairs in the front garden and relaxing in the hot tub on the back deck. The views from every room of the house were lovely, all evergreens and sky. The management company was exceptional -- incredibly responsive to all questions and needs.

Lazy Bear Lodge
Reviewed on 2022-05-21 by , Santa Rosa, CA USThe house smelled fresh and new. The furniture was comfortable and had a variety without looking cluttered or out of place. The decor theme was adorable. The appliances all worked well and were easy to run. The hot tub was especially nice. The only complaint was a mildewy smell coming from the dishwasher and ckothes washer. However, clothes and dishes came out clean and smelling fine, so that was a very minor detail!<br/><br/>The staff left a very kind welcome note and giftbasket of snacks alongside the house being in stunning condition.
