Met all our expectations. All our communication were answered promptly and answered all our questions. Very good location we wish we had a longer stay. Maybe next time.
We were looking for an out-of-the-way feel and this was perfect. We loved hanging out by the creek; the platform built across the way was great; and eating outside on the deck was wonderful too. Our favorite beach on the Russian River was just about a 20 min drive away; and we also drove 20 minutes in the other direction to Goat Rock beach on the ocean. Thank you for a great getaway!

Hello Melissa, Thank you for staying with us and being great guests! We are glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you all again :) We truly appreciate your feedback
The home and property are very welcoming. Great access to Austin Creek. House and property have all you'd expect and need. One star short of five due to neighborhood congestion & rough one-lane road to maneuver going through the neighborhood to the property.

Hello Rick, we are so happy to hear you enjoyed your time at Glen Tara and the amenities at the home :) Thank you for being terrific guests, we hope to see you again soon!
An attractive and well furnished 3 bedroom property.
WIFi and cable television functioned well.
Note that while check out time is 12, the passcode expired an hour earlier at 11.
Access lane from Cazadero Hwy the .8 miles is a single lane in places with a blind steep up and over that took getting used to.
Would stay here again.

Hello Steve, We are so glad you enjoyed your stay! Thank you for being wonderful guests :)
Place is perfect for a weekend away from the city. Bedrooms are comfortable, location is super peaceful, kitchen is well stocked for any sort of cooking you want to do, TV has cable and WiFi is good if you need to work or veg out, and the deck is amazing with a hot tub and grill for cooking!
Assuming you want to stay a bit of a drive from "town" (20 mins to Guerneville) - this is such a great jump off point for activities in Jenner, Guerneville/Monte Rio, or anywhere else in the area; and of course - the place itself makes for a lovely stay.

Dilapidated and dirty
The cabin is located at least 40 minutes from the 101, down a very narrow, one way road. Dangerously steep in places. I don't recall that in the description. One of the bathrooms is located in the creepy and dirty cellar down an extremely narrow circular metal stairway. This bathroom had cobwebs in the shower and black mold on the ceiling. The older part of the house is sloped several inches out of level. You actually feel like you are walking up or down a hill. The kitchen is dirty with cheap cabinets, damaged over the years. There was a huge smudge of, what I hope was, mud or fudge on the dining room wall. The archway in the kitchen has drywall falling down and black mold from a roof leak. The overall feel of the house is one of disrepair and neglect. A horroovie could be filmed here. Completely unhappy with the place. I have pictures if someone wants to see I am not exaggerating. I would never stay here again.

Hello Richard,
Thank you for expressed your concerns and the feedback you have given. Yes Glen Tara is about 40 minutes from the 101, and you take highway 116 to get to Cazadero highway, which can be intimidating if your are not a local, or have not looked up the directions prior. This is a river/creek cabin that was built 1948 and has been lovingly maintained by the owners, and it is very typical of cabins in this area.

we had a dream vacation at Glen Tara.
Such a nice place to relax. So clean, so surrounded by beauty. All the books, games, etc. you could want. Everything you could ask for, and don,t have to bring yourself. The furnishings could not have been nicer or more homey. We will try to come back next year. D. Humbel
