Beautiful view of where the Albion River enters the ocean. Nice well appointed cottages and a very welcoming staff. A great spot if you aren’t in to the B&B options of Mendocino proper and a mere 7 miles south.

Lovely views from every room. Very clean and spacious room. Comfortable bed. Extra points for a bathtub! My only complaint is the pillows are way too high.

Amazing location! So peaceful and quiet!! Check in and check out was easy. Moderately priced for area. The state parks nearby are incredible! This was a nice spot not far from Mendocino headlands and Vandamme hikes.

The room is not bad, with a balcony facing the sea, but the hygiene at the bottom of the bed is not too clean. But it is a pet-friendly hotel, and the administrator service is also very good. The price is a little expensive.
