My wife and I always bring our out-of-town guests here with a picnic lunch. I typically order a bottle of red wine to go with our lunch or snack.

Definitely worth the visit for the beautiful views. Personally, I wasn't a fan of their wine, but…read morewe did end up purchasing a bottle of their signature "It's My Fault" in the white to drink while we were there. I've had better $10 wines, but that's just my opinion. They do sell some charcuterie items in their store which we did purchase. There was packaging from the items we purchased along with plates and napkins that were handed to us. It was odd there no trash cans on site. We had to dispose of our trash in the small restroom trash they had. I'd say visit for the view, do a tasting for $15 (light on the pours though) and stay to soak it all in.

Stayed at Little River Inn last October, but just now getting to a review. All I can really say is…read morethe place was worth every cent and then some. The rooms are quaint but spacious enough. But the real appeal is the views. Just unbelievably gorgeous. It's just one of those things you must do and see in person. We stayed in one of the rooms with the long shared balcony. My initial concern was privacy but it was a non-issue. Everyone was polite and friendly. No noise issues or anything. We spent most of our room time outside enjoying the views and just soaking all of the beauty in. The Little River Inn is just down the road from Mendocino, and a short 10-15 minute drive to Fort Bragg. Perfect location for what we were doing that weekend. Staff was wonderful. The real surprise of the trip was the restaurant. I normally shy away from hotel restaurants, as I prefer to sample the local cuisine. However, we decided to give it a try our first night for Dinner. I was delicious and quite popular with the locals as well. I'll be doing a separate review for the restaurant, as I strongly recommend having at least one meal there. We ended up having two...lol. Just a great stay and a definite revisit when we get the time again. If I could give the place more stars I would.

Nice porch with comfy chairs to enjoy the garden and partial ocean view. Primarily garden so choose adjacent room if you want full view.

Also, loved their bloody mary kit . Very nice ! Our patio was a nice spot to enjoy our meal with our dog. Overall,a nice stay,good location but would have loved a later check out.

So this trip was a belated bday gift. Started off with delicious mimosas for the 20 minute ride to our first winery! The itinerary that Alex curated was top notch!!

It was delectable!! The day was warm and sunny and the wine was pouring!! If you're looking to wine taste in the Anderson valley make sure you call Alex and Tour Mendocino. The roads are a bit curvy and after drinking all day the ease of just getting in the van and having a safe drive back made it even better!! Alex you and your company are a gem and I can't wait to Tour Mendocino with you again!!

The wine tasting was great - every single pour was refreshing! I enjoyed all the Pinot Noirs we tasted. We also took a stroll up the hill on our last glass, which was totally worth it - a short walk for a beautiful view.

We sat in the outside back area and when I tell you we were speechless... we were SPEECHLESS! We could not believe how beautiful and green our view was. It felt like we died and were in heaven lol. That is all we kept saying to each other. Our host Taylor was so lovely. She was very friendly, excited to talk about the wines with us, and gave us recommendations for food spots to try when we were staying in Mendicino. We did a tasting and I wish the pours were a tiny bit bigger but that didn't bother me at all because the view was amazing on it's own. We're so excited to come back!

We grabbed turkey, Swiss, and avocado sandwiches from Lemon's Market and enjoyed them in Husch's beautiful picnic area surrounded by vineyards and redwoods. The whole place has such a relaxed, authentic Anderson Valley vibe. And in a time when tasting fees seem to be everywhere, Husch's complimentary tasting is a rare and very appreciated treat these days. It made the experience feel genuinely hospitable and unpretentious. If you're looking for a laid-back winery with great hospitality, gorgeous grounds, and excellent wine, Husch is an absolute must-stop on Highway 128. We'll definitely be back

Great for kids, even the younger kids won't complain about the walk and the animals are exciting for them. Following the farm tour was the wine and cheese tasting, which was excellent of course. There are many great wineries in this area and the wine was good, but the specialty is on the cheese. The cheese was amazing! They offer a limited food menu (think heavy snacks or appetizers rather than a full meal) and the food was also excellent. Plenty of space for the kids to run around. At my next visit I'm bringing an ice cooler so that we can take cheese to-go for home enjoyment. Overall this is a delightful and kid-friendly wine and cheese tasting and I look forward to my next visit.

We didn't try any of the food besides some cheese samples but next visit trying the food is a must!  They offer a wine and cheese pairing for $10 each. We opted for just the wine tasting, which included 10 wines and a great variety of whites, rose and reds. The Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir's were my favorites. Honestly, all the wine was really good though!  They have a tasting room bar located inside as well as outside. They have plenty of seating outdoors overlooking the Anderson Valley hills. It's such a beautiful view and very peaceful!  The staff was very warm, welcoming and knowledgeable about the wines and property. I can't wait for a future visit!

Without a doubt the Roederer Estate is the best producer of sparkling wines in the United States…read more In my opinion, if you want a sparkling, you can't beat one of the ones they have in their lineup! My personal favorite is the Anderson Valley Brut. It has a dry, crisp sharp oak-aged taste. The taste comes from the magic of the Anderson Valley. It is a long narrow valley that funnels in the cold fog from the ocean which drops the temperature and slows the ripening of the grapes. It's hard to beat this stuff!
