Alexander Valley Lodge

Wonderful experience
Great property! Pics don’t do it justice (although they are very accurate). It’s even more beautiful & impressive. Excellent entertainment area and plenty of room & accomodations. We were a party of 11 and had plenty of space.
plenty of staple items in the kitchen. Coffee pot. Crock pot. Pots & pans as well as dishes.
Luxury linens on all beds. They also have discount passes and complimentary tasting cards available in the house for many local wineries. Very nice touch along with a complimentary bottle of wine and some homemade toffee waiting for our group.
Outdoor areas are fantastic. Pool. Hot tub. Fire pit. Steps & trails up to adjoining vineyard with gorgeous views.
Owners are fantastic & available to help or answer questions. You can’t go wrong here at AVL.

This place is spacious, comfy, and has amazing views of Sonoma County wine country. Proximity to the adorable tiny town of Geyserville is a major plus, and owners Danielle and her husband are incredibly helpful, providing info on things to do and offering options for reasonable shuttle service to meet any local needs. (We used it to bring guests from town to a party.) The road to the property is a bit tricky, but it’s super close to 101, another plus. Great outdoor space, too: pool, Jacuzzi, grassy area for bocce, terrace for BBQs, and a tiki bar for whatever ails you!

We had the best time at the lodge. From very comfy beds to super accommodations hosts – it was fantastic. I can’t wait to go back and sit in the hot tub while stargazing. Best weekend ever.

I LOVE the lodge! It has the most spectacular view of Alexander Valley. The kitchen even comes with a chef if you would like!
It’s very cozy and very Geyserville. The outside area is charming and fun for a group get together. the drive is tricky so if you have been out wine tasting, the couple that owns the lodge will even drive you!

Unlike the other reviews we had a great time at the Alexander Valley Lodge. We celebrated my husband’s 40^th birthday there with a large group of friends and everyone had a great time. The number of master suites with adjoining baths was so nice and allowed for privacy. We stayed in the 3^rd floor bedroom and it was HUGE and had 2 decks and one even walked out onto a wooded path that had chairs.
One thing to keep in mind… this is a lodge and a vacation home that has many guests. The place was clean and for the size group we had the set up was great. In the main living area we played Pictionary as a group and everyone had a place to sit on the numerous couches. Yes as another poster said the couches have couch covers… but honestly does that really matter? Again this is a lodge in the middle of a gorgeous forest. We didn’t have any issues with soap or toilet paper. Infact I had brought a lot of things with me that I thought I would need (coffee filters, trash bags, papers towels, dishwasher soap, and a blow dryer) and in the end I didn’t need any of them. Towels were not an issue either and we had 10 people staying at the lodge. Just hang up your towels so you can reuse them the next day or if you need to the washer and dryer are on the 1^st floor… wash them yourself.
Danielle the owner was wonderful to work with and VERY responsive. She recommended a chef, Martin Courtman, that would come onsite to cook a 4-​course meal. I decided to surprise my husband and coordinate a menu with his favorites. Martin easily took my suggestions and came up with a yummy menu! He then gave us specific items within the menu so our friends could pair wines with each course. I can’t rave enough about how great Martin is and more importantly how unbelievable the 4-​course dinner was. Everyone is still talking about it… especially his crab cakes! In addition, to Martin’s recommendation, Danielle also has a van onsite that can be rented by the hour with driver included. What a great perk and the price she charged was very reasonable. The only reason we did not partake is we needed a van for the entire weekend and I was not drinking so could be the chauffeur verses hiring one.
The only negative for us was it was extremely foggy the weekend we stayed and the drive up the one-​lane, wooded, mostly non-​paved, hilly drive was very scary when we were coming home late one night after bowling. My recommendation is to drive an SUV if you have one and if it is foggy… stay in!
Last but not least, when we were wine tasting on Saturday and people asked where we were staying and we mentioned the Alexander Valley Lodge, everyone at the wineries commented on what a great place to stay and how great the owner was. To me that is the truest of all testaments.
We will back in the summer to fully enjoy what the lodge has to offer and this time we will bring our munchkins!

There is much to recommend this property. The outdoor living is quite pleasant and there are adequate common and private spaces available. However, you need to know that there are items either not provided or are rationed out meagerly. Bring your own bar soap for a good shower experience and it wouldn’t hurt to put an extra roll of toilet paper in your luggage in case … since that too is rationed.
