My husband and I traveled with our 17-month-old and stayed here for two nights. The manager I spoke to was able to arrange a babygate for our toddler to put at the top of the stairs in the house, which I thought was very nice of them. Also, we were initially thinking about rescheduling due to heavy rain, and when... more

The condo was spacious and really well appointed. Nice kitchen, nice bedrooms, big tv, decks on both floors. Would be great for a group of friends. It's easy to get to, not far from Guerneville, and a great base of operations for hiking or something. The hot tub motor was a bit noisy on the deck at night, I could... more

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at Balalika Guest Homes. We stayed in a two-bedroom unit with the master bedroom with deck, one full bath and a second bedroom downstairs. Upstairs: full kitchen, living/dining room, another full bath, fireplace, deck and hot tub (shared with another unit). The unit is new, especially for the area, which has lots... more

we have been coming to the river for the past ten years, always with our dog (now dogs). Have always had good vacation rentals, but this has to be the absolutely best deal in the entire area. The place we stayed had everything we would keep in our own vacation home if we had one. The design and decor is... more

I stayed at the Balalaika for a week with my friend and a dog. I certainly did not expect to find such a great place for $99/night... even though most of the reviews were raving about it. The townhouse is spacious and clean, the beds comfortable. The equipment in the bathrooms is modern, everything was working flawlessly. The kitchen, dining... more

This place exceeded our expectations, especially for the price! At the risk of making it too popular, thus upping the price and lowering availability, I MUST give this place a glowing review. The decor was understated elegance ( I especially loved the large painting in the master bedroom that was lit from within) and we immediately felt comfortable, as though... more

Now that I've been here for two weeks, I feel I can give a reasonable review. These units are actually very nice, but I have to admit that I was a little suspicious when I heard the price. They are spacious, and have two bathrooms and two bedrooms, large decks on both levels, with a gas bbq grill. There is... more
