Perfect for a couple of nights in Russian River

We really enjoyed our stay in one of the cabins at Highlands resort. It was at the tail end of a long road trip and it was probably our favorite stay of the entire trip. The overall setup is just enough for city slickers like us to feel like we're a tad off the beaten path without sacrificing any creature comforts. You basically get all of the amenities of a hotel room in a setting that seems to encourage you to disconnect and unplug. It's super quiet and the fresh air is conducive to a good night's sleep. At the same time, the location is walking distance to the main Guerneville strip and a straight shot from the Armstrong Redwoods Nature preserve - basically the ideal location for staying in Russian River. No complaints with any of the small stuff, either - getting in and out is easy, breakfast is great and fit for purpose, and the staff is friendly and helpful.

Fabulous cabins, great sun exposure (but shade if desired) and perfect continental breakfast. The staff couldn’t be friendlier! The only rub is dog related. Very dog friendly but there are only 3 dog cabins and $100 fee…pretty extreme for one night. There is literally zero additional cleaning involved and I doubt the cleaners get it anyway. Additionally, dogs can’t be left in the room unattended. I think a pet damage deposit would be more appropriate, but I don’t own the place. Will probably return but more likely to stay at a place without extreme dog costs/restrictions. Everything else as mentioned…fabulous!
Stylish, clean and simple

Review for Highlands Resort – Adults Only I had a lovely and relaxing stay at Highlands Resort. The setting is peaceful, the grounds are well-maintained, and the atmosphere is perfect for a quiet getaway. The staff was friendly and helpful throughout my visit. The only issue I experienced was with the Wi-Fi. Unfortunately, I was never able to connect from the cabin I was assigned, even after reporting the problem and being told the router had been reset. It wasn’t a major deal for a short retreat, but it’s something to be aware of if you need a reliable connection during your stay. Overall, I’d definitely return for the serenity and charm—just hoping the Wi-Fi is more consistent next time!

My partner Mick and I stayed here at the end of March, and honestly—don’t even waste time looking at other places in Guerneville. This resort is an absolute 5-star gem! From the moment we stepped out of the car, we knew we were somewhere special. The landscaping is lush and beautifully maintained, the cabins are charming and spotless, and the pool and main resort area are pristine and inviting. Although it’s right in town, the property feels incredibly peaceful and secluded—just a short stroll to everything, yet it feels like a private oasis. Every detail has been thoughtfully curated to create a truly relaxing escape. Huge shoutout to our incredible hosts, Cathy, Julie, and Ashley—your warmth and hospitality made our stay even more memorable. We’re already dreaming about our next visit!

The property was lovely as was the service. We were a little disappointed that we didn’t get the room with the big tub. I thought that is what I reserved but they told me the don’t reserve that room through 3rd party apps. Also, the rooms don’t have complimentary coffee and tea so make sure to bring your own. They have a kettle to heat warmer. With no hot tub by the pool there isn’t much to do on the property in the cooler months. Also, we were a little disappointed that the fire pit wasn’t on in the evening.

I have been visiting the Guerneville area since I was a toddler and was so excited to stumble across Highland Resorts. It offered the same nostalgic feeling but paired with an elevated experience in the “tents”. I can’t wait to go back again! Cathy and team you are wonderful!
