This was my first time staying at Wharfmasters Inn. It makes a nice destination along the north coast. Point Arena is a cute little town with some nice restaurants and music sometimes as well. The little cafe at wharf masters was also nice and convenient. I will surely return.

By far the greatest travel destination for an anniversary. The view is stunning, the staff are amazing. The jetted tubs and fireplaces in the rooms were perfect. Mid 50 degrees at night and near 70 during the day on Aug 2. Wow. Get the pizza down the hill, you won’t regret it. All in all… perfection.
