Antler River Lodge - Guerneville Dog-Friendly Riverfront Lodge with Hot Tub

Sunlight filters through towering redwoods onto the private hot tub where you'll soak after floating the Russian River. This 1930s log lodge sleeps 10 with room for your dogs to roam the enclosed yard. Step through the 11-foot picture window view to your private river beach — one of the best fishing holes in Guerneville. Just 0.2 miles from The Lodge at Dawn Ranch and 0.3 miles from downtown's taco trucks and cafes.

Spend mornings on the deck as mist lifts off the Russian River, afternoons floating the river or visiting Korbel and Joseph Jewell tasting rooms, and evenings around the firepit with the day's bottles.

The vast great room rises beneath antler chandeliers, a stone fireplace anchoring leather Chesterfields and a Chesterfield sofa. An 11-foot picture window holds the river so persistently it might as well be a wall; a second seating area in soft blue-green tones spreads across Oriental rugs, and a small office loft above is set up for a stretch of remote work. The kitchen anchors with cherry cabinets, a gas range, and serious gear — KitchenAid mixer, commercial waffle iron, holiday-ready cookware — and the formal dining room sets six beneath a crystal chandelier.

OUTDOOR LIVING
The covered patio is an outdoor room unto itself — exposed beam ceiling, brick fireplace, and ornate driftwood furniture set the scene. A vine-draped pergola shelters a picnic table for al fresco meals. The large meadow backyard leads directly to eight acres of private beach shared with just a few neighbors, featuring the best fishing hole in town. Soak in the private hot tub, fire up the BBQ, or claim a sunny spot in the spacious side yard.

SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS
Three bedrooms and a loft sleep up to ten guests. The first bedroom overlooks the river with a king bed in red and black plaid bedding with leopard print accents. The second riverfront bedroom features a king bed surrounded by log walls. The third bedroom holds two queen beds beneath an antler chandelier with colorful patterned bedding. Up in the loft, two twin beds offer a tucked-away retreat.
