We only stayed one night on our way from SF to Mendocino, but really enjoyed our stay. We appreciated how clean and comfortable the room was, the beautiful grounds and view, the amenities (real Keurig and not a cheap knock-off — yay!!), and friendly staff. This place is a hidden gem that’s very close to Point Reyes!
