The staff were so friendly and made us feel right at home. Breakfast was beyond amazing and way more than we expected, we actually had a hard time picking because everything looked so good! The quiche was delicious, and the fresh juices were such a nice touch to keep you energized and feeling good. Our room was super clean and comfortable, and we loved ending the day at the bar after long walks through the redwoods. It was the perfect way to relax after exploring. Overall, this place was perfect, great food, great people, and such a cozy vibe. We can’t wait to come back!
