Approximately 75 miles north of San Francisco lies Guerneville, the largest town along the Russian River (population 3,500).
Within the three block square downtown, you’ll find restaurants, shops, taverns, and a fully stocked Safeway supermarket. A block or two off the main road, you’ll find a handful or resorts that cater specifically to gay clientele.
Transportation: To get to Guerneville, having a car is helpful. You can use public transportation, but it's not easy or convenient. Once you are at ‘the River’ (as it is also known) you don’t necessarily need a car, but having one will help you explore the stunningly beautiful countryside. Rent a bicycle in town (available seasonally), but be aware that much of the terrain is very hilly and the roads are narrow. Visit the “how to get there” page for detailed instructions for driving or taking public transportation.
Accommodations: Women’s Weekend attendees stay at the nearby resorts or at one of the many area houses, apartments or rooms available for short-term rental. Please be aware that some locations have minimum stay requirements and most are booked well in advance. Women’s Weekend attendees are responsible for their own accommodations. Check out the “Lodging” page for suggestions.

All of the Women’s Weekend hosted events are inclusive events for all LGBTQIA+ femmes and women, including but not limited to trans women, trans men, non-binary, and gender-queer folks.
