    This review is for the Garden Unit in the Packard house. It has a beautiful garden view with access, a super comfortable bed and & the breakfast food was delicious & delivered timely during COVID but that's where it ends. This unit is very tired & worn - from the structure of the building to the furniture and fixtures. Doors are cracked & have wood rot and mold, The kitchenette didn't have hot water but it does have ants, The sofa legs are wobbly so when you sit on it you feel like it's going to crash to the floor, the bathroom is two big steps down with a cracked sink & dirty grouped tile floor. I created a list of "suggestions & attention needed" for the Inn's management which they appreciated (but they had to know about many of these flaws because they are clearly old). They did offer a partial credit which I received promptly. I've provided a photo of this list along with other photos of these flaws.

    Small breakfast - this is for 2 people.

    Sweetwater Inn and Spa - Outdoor tub 2

    This was an amazing spa experience! You'd never know it looking at the front of the building, but…read morethe lot extends very far to the back where there are multiple buildings for lodgings and the spa/body work services. We booked the outdoor hot tub #2 for one hour on a Sunday. It's $40/person on the weekends. This was a rainy weekend early in the season, so the spa was very quiet. It was quite serene to be outside in the hot tub, with light rain falling down! There is complete privacy at the tub, but there is also a larger communal tub option as well. The sauna is also communal. One drawback is that the restroom and locker room area did not seem to have separated male/female spaces. Luckily, we had the place to ourselves besides some older women, so it was not an issue. However, I would not have loved it had it been busier. It's a small space, so heads up on that if you're going. Overall, this was a fun and unique experience to do in Mendocino. It was very relaxing and peaceful, and the price was decent for the service. I would definitely go again. Very fun!

Didn't like -step up to living room(dangerous for older people), no air conditioning , just ceiling fan. (hot living room because of windows), no usable chest of drawers (not easy to pull drawers in and out), noisy kitchen cupboard doors ( no pulls, slam shut), only very small closet (basically had to live out of suitcases for five days.

    I forgot to review this lovely place I got the pleasure of staying for two nights back in November…read more2025. This was the absolute cutest idea I have done in a long while, although the nights were absolutely freezing during November which I do not recommend, if you can't withstand the cold. It was still enjoyable though. I recommend doing this during the lovely summer, I am sure it's amazing. They have clean bathrooms to shower. Communal area for coffee and breakfast with small snacks. They had this absolutely amazing apple bread I had to call them for the recipe, it was soooo good. It was a nice walk to get coffee, coffee was decent as well, no complaints. Raccoons will be the biggest problem, they do warn you prior and say to hide all dog food and human food in the large heavy chest that is located outside your tent. I thought I had put everything inside the chest and I was laying down and I heard something outside, so I get up and my neighbor said the raccoon had taken something from my bag, I finally realized the next day it was my dogs combs ugh. I was sad to say the least so don't make the same mistake as I did, make sure to put all things in that chest lol. I am assuming they thought it was food. The staff were very friendly upon check in, and when I called back to for the apple bread recipe. I forgot to mention that I wish they would invest in way better heated blankets for the colder months especially if we can't bring our own. The ones that were included and on the bed were just not heating up enough for the 40 degree temps. Cute little spot for a getaway!

    I have been trying to reach this business for the past two days to cancel my reservation, and no…read moreone has responded. I have called, texted as instructed, and emailed just in case. 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.

    Gisele's "New House" Cottage was like entering into a fairytale garden cottage. It was not tidy…read moreand perfect but more rustic and natural. The house itself was clean and the bed mattress was top quality. It was an amazing nights rest. The stove fireplace was perfect for the chilly nights and the kitchen fully stocked to make a 3 course meal plus more. The location was ideal to venture the town, walk to the Headlands, and the Harvest Market is only 3 blocks away. I would have given 5 stars but the bathroom was not so private and a bit too close to the downstairs bed. Overall...very fair rate for our stay. I would stay here agein

    A stay at the Mendocino Village Cottages is ultimate relaxation. No TV, no internet, fireplace,…read morebeautiful garden at your front porch. It's the perfect escape from everything and totally affordable. We stayed in the garden studio on weekdays for only $70/night. You can't beat that price for any room that's actually in the tiny town of Mendocino. There's no breakfast served at the cottages but you're only a short walk from downtown Mendocino which has plenty of coffee, food options, and great art galleries. Mendocino is adorable, and has a completely relaxed vibe. The cottages are on the very west end of town so only a 1/4 mile walk down the road to Mendocino Headlands State Park with breathtaking scenery. The room was very clean, quirky and cozy decorations, and plenty of firewood is provided. The three cottages are on the same property, kind of an extended backyard, but the incredible garden and ample space made it seem very private. The proprietor was nice but not overly involved in our stay or our business. She lives on site but was pretty much absent. This is a great place to stay in Mendocino and the price is unbeatable.

    I needed a local 3 day work retreat, and the cottage I rented at CALRC met my need in every way…read more Really nice, fully equipped, modern, clean, and extremely comfortable. I was able to achieve a tremendous amount of productivity by being able to work uninterrupted (unlike my home office), and I really didn't need to leave the cabin during my entire stay. Plus, the view from the Elk cottage is exceptional! I'll be back for sure.

Just magnificent! There's a good sized living room, full kitchen and refrigerator, a small 4 seater dining area, a bedroom (almost entirely taken up by a queen bed) with a sliding door that opens onto a balcony and a full bathroom. I asked for decaf coffee ahead of time and that was waiting for me together with a small bottle of white wine from a local winery. There is no internet unless you connect to the property's wifi which is more than adequate - about 60 mbps in this bungalow. The bungalow temperature is controlled by a thermostat and a self-igniting gas fireplace. These are the plus-es. On the minus side, the balcony had no view to speak of at all, looking mostly at the exit road and the side of the bungalow in front of the Albion. (I think the view from the other bungalow balconies is better.) The furniture was old and very worn. The couch/ pull out bed in the living room was hard and not particularly comfortable to sit on watching TV. The biggest negative was my bathroom (but only the bathroom) was crawling with ants. When I mentioned it to the property contact they were quick to say they'll address but, unfortunately, it was time for me to leave before they could. (My fault for late notification to them). In all, it is a comfortable (not luxurious) stay in a spectacularly beautiful area at a reasonable price. It's a solid 3* accommodation in a 4-5* setting at a reasonable price.
