Captain's Inn at Moss Landing

Captain's Inn at Moss Landing

5/5 Excellent
"We had a wonderful view from the room of the slough. There were many different birds and sea lions going about their day. Easy access to the beach, nice walking trails and the sunsets were beautiful! Nearby restaurants that you could walk to....they were very unique. We will definitely be back here again."
