"The room was large and spotlessly clean. The large tub, table and chairs for two, fridge and bathrobes were nothing compared to the incredible ocean view out the huge window. The balcony had chairs as well. Beach is walking distance and there is an accessible walking path right past the lodge."

10/10 Excellent
"I stayed here about 15 years ago. My wife and I have visited Fort Bragg several times every year since then but have opted to stay with other accommodations. This time I had a very short trip, just two nights, so I booked a room at the motel. I was pleasantly surprised that they have upgraded and renovated the rooms in the year since I had been there. I had a single queen room which was a little small but sufficient. It had a huge well renovated bathroom, full tile floors and walls and a beautiful shower. I was really happy to have it for two nights and felt very safe in the room felt very clean. I didn't try the breakfast cuz I slept in but it looked like they had a nice continental breakfast in the lobby. Overall great stay I would do it again."
