The ocean was windy and turbulent, we were warned about it before the tour. But, the tour in itself was great. They try to give as much information and do even try to go get the best sighting!

This was a memorable trip. We were originally slated to visit in late June before my birthday but…read moreboth Deb and Kirk were recovering from surgery. We stayed in touch over the next several weeks before settling on an August date. We braved the high temps and winding roads to arrive at the ranch. It's a beautiful space on a hillside and you can see the herd and their guardian llama as you pull into the parking lot. We learned a lot about the alpaca life cycle, fed the boys, and my daughter got to hold and carry a cria. We bought two cute alpaca shaped soaps. I didn't experience any of the negativity others have complained about. It is a working ranch so it's not a petting zoo or a tourist attraction. Go with the flow and you'll have a great experience.

It was a bit windy, I recommend bringing a jacket. The train ride to the Blair Bar was 20 minutes. Once we arrived the views were spectacular! It wasn't time for sunset just yet but once the sun started going down the lights became more vibrant. We immediately walked over to the bar to grab a drink. We ordered 2 old fashioneds and they were nicely poured with a good amount of whiskey. There was live music, and tons of seating around warmers and large fire pits. They offered s'mores kits and light snacks. The pits do get a bit crowded. We couldn't get a seat until the 9pm train left. Which opened up some spots around the fire pits. The whole experience was great. It made me feel like I was in a scene of Virgin River! Definitely recommend if you're ever visiting the Mendocino or Fort Bragg area of Northern California.

For over 20 years I wanted to ride the rails. My son and I finally did this yesterday and we loved…read moreit. The newly designed and patented rail bikes just started being used 2 weeks ago. They are smooth, quiet and comfortable with full back support. Previous bikes had a tractor type seat with no back support. The new seats are firm so you might want to bring some padding. I talked with them about this and they were very receptive to me. Since they are electric with pedal assist, we decided to use the electric motor the entire distance. That way we focused on the experience 100% and it was delightful. A perfect, personalized lunch was provided, which added to the experience. Safety is top priority with them so with several road crossings, some with crossing arms/signals and some without, excellent care was taken to make the crossings safely. Our guide was Atlas and he was training 2 new employees. Everything went perfectly! All three of them were so kind and constantly wanted to attend to everyone's needs. I recommend you take the rail bike tour, sit back and enjoy the ride. Just imagine the amount of work that went into making the rail line over 100+ years ago. With the bikes, you sit just above the rails and can marvel at what it took to build this and any rail line. You will have a new appreciation for all railroads. You wind your way through the hills and I believe I read there is a section of the line that winds over 8 miles to actually travel a straight line of 1 mile. It is an engineering marvel. Enjoy!!!!! Please be sure to tip your guides

I attempted to make a reservation for the harbor tour with Captain Dan for my anniversary. When I called I reached a voicemail inbox and began to leave a message, but in the middle of it someone picked up - no greeting or other info, just a very brusque "hello?" Out of simple curiosity I asked if they ever do whale watching trips at other times of year, but was abruptly interrupted by the person shouting, "why doesn't anyone ever look at the website, we don't do that here!!" I was so taken aback that I apologized and hung up. The tour genuinely looks like it would be lovely and I was interested in what Captain Dan would be able to tell us about! But I'm not about to risk continuing to being treated so rudely on a special occasion.

We…read moreactually booked this tour online back in May (we're on our annual anniversary vacation and we plan very very far ahead). Booking online was super easy, we were sent a confirmation email with a number to call to confirm our tour time. Since the availability of the tour in really dependent on the tide, we did call back a couple weeks ahead to confirm and pay for the tour. Kristin helped us though the process and made it really easy and painless. Captain Dan was super nice. I appreciate all the stories and knowledge he shared about the harbor, who does what in each boat, the surrounding properties, his time in Alaska, and more. Such great conversations. We got pretty lucky because there was a couple boats selling tuna and cleaning fish so there was a lot of sea lions and seals around waiting for fish. We were on an electric boat, so it was really quiet and didn't scare away the marine life and we were able to get up close. We got to see lots of beautiful birds, he had even told us which ones to watch because they dive down and catch fish. And we did see one catch a fish! It was so cool. Such an amazing experience we'd go again the next time we're out in the area. I definitely recommend!

Still nothing. This is especially concerning for a glamping property where guests are expected to stay in a remote or wilderness setting. If no one can respond to a basic cancellation request, how can guests feel confident that support would be available in an emergency or even for a routine need during the stay? The lack of communication is unacceptable and has made me feel unsafe bringing my family there. At this point, I will need to pursue cancellation through another route since I have been unable to get any assistance directly.

The ranch is a 70 acre plot adjacent to 10,000 acres of BLM land between Blue Lake and Clear Lake and the property benefits from the wild pigs that run the BLM land; the family has also brought in Russian Boar to mate with the locals. The summer terrain is steep, loose dirt, dead leaves and rocks through manzanita and other brush. Be in good shape, have at least a .243 caliber rifle (no .223) and bring water. Pig season is year-round in California and pig tags are ~$22.

Yesterday was my third hunt with them, all of them being business related, but at the end of the day, we are just good friends trying to do something rememberable, as opposed to just another boring game of golf. (who remembers a golf game?) I have taken 11 people on the property in three hunts that I have done at PPR, most first timers. Kayla and her team have dealt with many novices and it is old hat for them to make a first time hunter feel comfortable...but even for somebody experienced like me, this is a phenomenal hunt. Most importantly, they go the extra mile to make sure that everyone in the group gets has an opportunity, giving each and every person time and attention...out of the 11 folks I have taken up, I was the only one that didn't connect on one of the trips...and it was completely my fault. Kayla's skill and confidence in her profession will absolutely leave you astonished. If you are thinking about taking clients up there...do it. Kayla and her brothers know the drill, and will help you create unforgettable memories. Thanks again PPR...can't wait to introduce you to my next crew.

The captain of the boat, Rowan, made a difficult experience better. He used his phone and speaker to play the music she had wanted for her funeral. She had also wished to be in the Pacific and have peonies be part of her ceremony. He chose a cove near the Golden Gate Bridge, where the waters of San Francisco Bay mix with those of the Pacific. The currents would take her out to the Pacific, where she hoped to be, recalling her young womanhood in Santa Monica. I didn't want to scatter her ashes--having to lose one more thing of hers, and I also wanted to avoid the risk of the ashes blowing back on us--so I bought a biodegradable container. Rowan offered to set it in the water for me, along with the peonies. I watched it until it sank. Rowan circled the boat long enough to allow me to see it until I was comfortable with leaving. Thank you.
