We didn’t plan on staying here but glad we did. Our (terrace) room was lovely with easy access to the lawn and river! Having a swim in the water then rest in the shade of the redwoods was lovely. Staff was great, food was very good!

What a wonderful establishment. The hotel, bar, restaurant, and surrounding grounds were inviting and relaxing. Definitely worth a night or two when you are in southern Humbolt County.

The complimentary tea and scones in the afternoon and the sherry in your room. Good food in the dining room. Places to walk around the premises and sit by the Eel River. This is an historic place so keep that in mind. It’s like stepping back in time
