Very relaxing stay with a great view
Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025

I loved the private access to the lake, very convenient and beautiful way to start the morning. The manager, Jay, was very kind and flexible despite the curve balls we threw at him. The place was cozy but does need some work. I liked the convenience of having a kitchen.

This place is filthy! Bugs, mold, no hot water, and completely unsanitary. Do not stay here.

A beautiful, charming stay right on the river! Loved being able to sit out on the deck in the sunshine and look out at the redwoods and the river.

This property was a major letdown, even for someone used to budget travel. I came here directly from a camping trip with very modest expectations—and was still disappointed. From the moment we arrived, communication was disorganized and unclear. There was no staff onsite, no cell service, no Wi-Fi info, and a sign on the door instructing us to call or message via WhatsApp—without any way to do so. After leaving the property to find reception, I finally got a message directing me to retrieve a key from a dropbox—without any in-person interaction. On top of that, we were placed in a completely different room than the one we reserved. We had specifically booked a room with a private balcony for a special occasion, and instead were given a unit that opened to a shared walkway, with broken blinds and zero privacy. During our stay, we were blocked in by another car. When I asked for help, the only response was to “ask them to move it,” even though there was no indication of whose car it was or how to contact anyone else. No staff were present at any point, and there was no further communication. The room itself was outdated, worn, and clearly not maintained with care. What’s most frustrating is that the property seems to charge a premium simply because it can—not because it offers anything close to a quality experience. It feels like no real effort is made to maintain the space or provide basic hospitality. The attitude seems to be: “people will book it anyway."

The location of the property is excellent. It is beside the river, beautiful surrounding and one can walk and dip in the river. But the condition of the property is not good. This is the only drawback of the property

My favorite place on the river
Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023

We had an okay stay. It has a nice river view but the propery is very outdated. The bathroom was tiny and a bit dirty. The kitchen stove was rusty and cabinets were old that the paint were already chipping. The window blinds were broken. We had to kinda fix it to cover atleast most part of the window. The room was a bit dark. Not enough lighting. I didn’t feel comfortable staying inside the room, more so sleeping on the bed. The bed sheets has overwhelming stench. Fortunately, we always carry our own bedsheets, blankets and pillow covers for such situation. Unless they upgrade, we don’t see ourselves staying in this property again.

This has now become my new yearly Memorial Day holiday spot. I was greeted immediately by the gentleman who is in charge here and each day he met my husband dog and I with an amazing attitude and smile. It was so peaceful that I didn’t want to leave.

Similar to some other facilities in area, but not as expected. We stayed 1night then moved to another inn. As seniors, about 80 years old, the stairs were a problem.

Very nice staff! Property is a bit dated and needs some TLC, but it’s a very good location right on the river and the staff were lovely.

We stayed for one night and the services was great! Yes the building is not modern, but it is beautiful. Monte Rio is a beautiful,lush,friendly town. The only down fall is hard to walk with no sidewalks and cars driving fast.

Like: I had to call the number posted on the front door when I arrived. The call was answered quickly and the host came immediately to check me in. She also added a heater to my room to help heat it up (without me asking). She was very friendly and confirmed where I could grab some food. She came up and knocked shortly before 9pm to make sure I was warm enough and ask if I needed more blankets. I could smell the detergent on the sheets (not sure about the blankets though) Didn't like: The room could use a little updating. The blinds were rickety and did not close properly. Luckily I carry sanitizer wipes because there were a few spots on the toilet seat and under the toilet seat.

The man running the property was beyond kind. The grounds are absolutely beautiful. The Pom was basic but did the job. I would definitely be back. And great location to enjoy the coast and the river.
