Wonderful stay

Was great- spectacular views even in the lower floor room. There was no decaf coffee in the room but that is only a minor complaint. This place is wonderful.

Pick this place!

We could not have enjoyed the view from our room more. View was stunning and a seagull came daily to perch on the rail to stare at us, lol. Quiet, convenient to Mendocino and surrounding parks. Staff was pleasant and accommodating.

We had a wonderful four-day stay - loved the location, amenities and room. Little River Inn was our base camp for outings to Point Arena, Mendocino and Fort Bragg. We love travelling in the fall, and LIttle River Inn provided all the comforts of home.We will definitely return in the future.
