Casa Secoya
Surrounded by the natural beauty of redwoods and close to the Russian River, Casa Secoya is a great option for getting away without breaking the bank. Room options vary, one of which is a cabin perfect for your family. Traveling with your pooch? Casa Secoya can also accommodate dogs, but be sure to see their pet policies.
HIGHLIGHTS:
For a day where you don’t want to travel, make the most of your time at Casa Secoya by enjoying their outdoor picnic seating and a dip in their seasonal pool that backs up right to the redwoods.
Highland Dell Lodge
Highland Dell Lodge’s cozy, rustic atmosphere will make for a memorable trip, but at a price point your wallet will appreciate. Right on the Russian River, enjoy the view of the water every morning during the hotel’s complimentary breakfast; suites can also come with their own private balcony if you wish to enjoy this view from the comfort of your room. Their onsite restaurant, Sarah’s Kitchen, has authentic German cuisine, and you can choose to have your meal there or take it elsewhere, such as for a picnic on the river.
HIGHLIGHT:
Are you a history buff? Well even if you aren’t, you’ll find yourself admiring the Lodge’s historic charm. It was originally constructed in 1906 but was renovated in 2006, to ensure a hotel experience with modern amenities while still preserving the history of the building.
Boho Manor
While some room options might be a bit pricier, some rooms here are on the more affordable side without having to sacrifice a comfortable, memorable stay. Some rooms even have waterfront views of the Russian River, and dogs are welcome — dog beds in various sizes are provided and there’s even a doggy menu that you can look at so that your pooch can have a comfortable stay with you.
HIGHLIGHTS:
Since this hotel might help you save some money, why not spend a little extra on their additional amenities? Try their picnic package that comes with food, wine or champagne, two flutes and a blanket for the ultimate picnic excursion. Or, take one of their yoga sessions while facing the Russian River if you need the chance to relax.
