Absolutely loved the greenhouse pool with hot tub and dry sauna. It was so relaxing and perfect after our long days of hiking and exploring the area. Beautiful grounds and rooms were cozy, especially with the balcony and fireplace. We loved it here.
Beautiful property. The staff were so friendly and absolutely amazing! They provided outstanding hospitality with a personal touch! My fiancé and I absolutely loved the amenities- our favorite thing might have been relaxing each night in front of the fireplace in our room after a soak in the hot tub. Also, the donkeys were very cute 😁

The whole place was simply lovely, comfortable, and filled with nature.
It is a beautiful place situated in the hills above Mendocino. The views are superb, and the rooms well appointed. However, the vegan restaurant was a huge disappointment. Vegan food can be delicious but this one certainly was not. In addition, the vibe of the place was a little too New Age-y for my taste.
Oh this place is beautiful. The main Lodge is a gorgeous building, full of fascinating books and accessories for sale. (Not to mention the sweetest cats). Stanford has the only indoor pool and hot tub for 100 miles. The restaurant was hot garbage, but Mendocino is chock full of wonderful places to eat.
Staff was great. Had issue with barking dog outside our room and it was handled promptly and well.
Room v clean but for the px expected it to be less rustic and a bit more updated. Property is quaint but starting to age. Grounds nice for walking; lobby was cozy and welcoming. Restaurant food was very fresh and tasty but as a meat eater would have been nice to have some non vegan options.
Wonderful birthday destination! The accommodations were cozy, loved the fireplace. Ravens Restaurant was amazing! Every single meal!! We had massages and took a cooking class with Sid. We enjoyed the dry sauna, hot tub and pool that were all located in a greenhouse type setting. So relaxing.
This is a beautiful property. The grounds include gardens and also a number of animals. There are donkeys, llamas, and horses. They are dog friendly here. The rooms are charming, mission style cabin feeling. There is an Nespresso machine in your room, which is wonderful!

The room was comfortable and the staff pleasant. I did not enjoy vegan dinner or breakfast and there was no choice. Perhaps this was explained before I booked but I missed it. The library of book for sale was interesting.
