We LOVED our time in the Mendocino area and this lodge made it perfect. Thank you to the entire staff for making our first time in Northern California a great experience. The restaurant’s menu and staff were outstanding, and the wine flights were abundant. We’ll be back!

Best at low tide, these meter diameter boulders are a sight to see. Dozens of them out there in the tide that get covered at high tide. The kids loved this beach and all the things to touch and climb on. Best part: free. An hour south of Mendocino, CA. #KidsFun

Located on the remote Northern California Coast at Point Arena, is the B. Bryan Preserve. They breed and present critically endangered African hoofed animals to maintain the species population. They are not a zoo and only give pre-reserved small tours with up close views of the animals. Lynn and I toured while we were in the area.
