Our stay was absolutely wonderful! I booked this place for my bachelorette weekend. The home was clean and well-maintained, it is clear the hosts take great care of the property.The house was incredibly comfortable, making it easy to relax after a day swimming or browsing the shops nearby. We loved having such easy access to the river and being just a short trip away from town. It really offered a great logistical experience for such a short trip.What truly set this stay apart for us were the thoughtful extra touches. Finding a basket of snacks waiting for us, bathroom stocked with toiletries, cool historic art of Guerneville on the walls.If you’re looking for a cozy and perfectly located stay, I cannot recommend Lily Pad enough. We will definitely be back :)

We had a wonderful time, making sweet memories with our family. The house is super cute with an amazing backyard and came with kayaks, and it was right on the river, which made it even more magical.
