These inn-keepers have developed a lovely resort with cabins. Everything is comfortable, well-tended and relaxing. If you are a gay visitor to Russian River, I can't think of a better location and value. This is NOT a super fancy or trendy resort like some that cater to the gay community. It is the opposite: a sweet home with pool surrounded... more

When we booked this hotel, it was primarily based on location. My husband and his brother had a triathalon down the street. The hotel was in the perfect location for what we needed, and was also not too far from several wineries. The people at the front desk were very friendly, and the grounds were very beautiful. There are a... more

My partner and I have stayed here 3 times now, twice in one of the nice nonsmoking cabins with a gas fireplace, and once in the 2br unit attached to the office. The hosts are amazing, we come out from Massachusetts specifically to go wine tasting, and they gave us great tips and advice on where to start exploring the... more

My partner and I have stayed here for long weekends 2 or 3 times each year over the past decade. (After stays at 4 other good Guerneville locations, this became our favorite.) We have enjoyed cabins with wood burning stoves; gas fireplaces, and kitchens (where we've prepared 3 of our Thanksgiving dinners.) Our favorite time to visit is winter, when... more

After finding this retreat online, and checking it out on TripAdvisor, we booked it directly by phone. It exceeded our expectations. It was quiet, rustic, comfortable, and welcoming. Our hosts, Lynette and Ken, could not have been more gracious or helpful. Not fancy, not luxurious, not pretentious, but not rundown or shabby. We were there for 5 days, and I... more

The Highlands Resort is probably one of my favorite places! I've been twice in two years and stayed for 3 nights each time. Ken and Lynette are gracious hosts and the property is beautiful & quiet. (great remodel on all but 2 cabins). I'm not quite sure why an earlier reviewer claims that it is not dog friendly. On both... more

We once owned a beach home in REMOTE Mexico that we rented out. Some guests said they really wanted a quiet area, a place to read and relax without TV and radios. Most were content. A few really wanted the Ritz. So what are you really looking for? GLBT friends, my partner and I have been guests at the Highlands... more

My Boyfriend and I first came here in July 2002 for a few days and loved it so much that we returned in 2003,2005 and 2006! The only reason we did not return in 2007 and 2008 is that we were in Southern Cali! We will be back we hope early next year. That should say enough, Lynnette and Ken... more

The hotel calls itself as "pet friendly" - which is a scam. They only have two rooms for pets and they are allegedly always booked. I believe in truth in advertising and think that this sucks. Also, when I was there last, there were a lot of kids running around and some guys were "blowing" in the jacuzzi - hardly... more

Lynette McLean, Owner/Manager

Highlands Resort is pet-friendly. Out of our 16 units we have 3 that are pet-friendly. (check our website for the cabin descriptions and rates – each pet friendly cabin is noted) Our resort is an adult resort that caters to the LGBT community and we allow nudity at the pool and hot tub so we don’t attract many families. Anyone...
