Nestled on the banks of the Russian River in Sonoma County, historic Dawn Ranch has played host to vacationers from San Francisco and around the globe for over a century since opening in 1905. From its beginnings as a dining hall with tented cabins to taking the title of the first gay destination resort in California s wine country, to its closure after 2019 s devastating flood, Dawn Ranch s towering redwoods have borne witness to it all. Having most recently operated as a wedding venue until it closed in 2019, the property announces its reopening for the summer as a full service luxury resort for the first time in three years under the operation of Bridgeton Holdings [Walker Hotel Tribeca, Walker Hotel Greenwich Village, Marram Montauk].
