Expensive food choice at the restaurant but food was fine. Breakfast was terrible though. We got 2 little poorly tasting waffles for $16. The room was big looking over the river so quiet at night. Could be such a beautiful hotel with a little investment.

This is a beautiful property near the Avenue of the Giants. The king plus bunk bed room was enormous. The style is like an early 1900's mansion/castle, the room decor matched, but it didn't feel at all run down or aged. The bed was very comfortable. It had a bunk bed in a separate room for my two kids. The grounds are just as amazing as the hotel. You can walk around and check out the river. We are a great breakfast on the huge back patio. Overall it was a magical last minute find during our road trip.

We liked the quaint charm of this historic inn and the staff was excellent. Our server in the restaurant, Juan, was exceptional and met all our needs. The patio was an excellent place to watch the 4th of July fireworks show. My only complaint is the windows in our room (204) needs work, they would not close and lock properly.
