Happy Days in the heart of Guerneville

We enjoyed our week here. The place is well maintained and the beds super comfy. It's a great location - between the coast and wine areas - and walking to restaurants in the town was a plus. Would definitely stay again.

Perfect Location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time staying at the Happy Days house, right in the heart of Guerneville. Everything there is to do, in town, is all within walking distance; the river, shops, the bank, grocery store, bars, and restaurants.Very convenient. 100% would book here again.

We recently stayed for about a week and really enjoyed calling this our home away from home. 2 short blocks from the main road with restaurant, shops and bars. The outdoor backyard was nice to sit in the afternoon. Overall, great, comfy place to stay and relax among the redwoods and river!

Perfect for Our Group

We greatly enjoyed our stay at Happy Days and hope to return in the future. There are multiple spaces for hanging out which made it perfect for a rainy weekend - the high-ceilinged living room, where we enjoyed having a fireplace, the large dining table where we played board games, the rec room downstairs where we revived our pingpong skills. It's so lovely to be able to walk anywhere in downtown Guerneville in minutes without driving. We are major fans of Happy Days!
