Mendocino Farmhouse Bed & Breakfast

My husband and I loved our relaxing and romantic get away in the middle of the redwoods. We arrived in the dark and the drive was a little spooky through the forest, but once the sun came out the next day we realized what a beautiful setting it really was. The breakfast was superb each morning and Marge was a wonderful hostess. I would recommend this place again and again. We plan on going back next year.

We've stayed here twice, both times in the cedar room, and it's the perfect little hideaway for anybody looking to explore the Mendocino coastline while trying to avoid the atmosphere of a noisy (and ridiculously overpriced) hotel. The rooms are small, but cozy, and ours came with fresh cut flowers, a clawfoot tub, plenty of tea/cocoa, plus a wood-burning fireplace with plenty of fuel to keep a crackling blaze going all night long. Home-cooked breakfast is served between 8AM and 10AM (remember to set your alarm, since it's so quiet, it's very easy to oversleep), and the friendly innkeepers will show you a book of menus from nearby restaurants to take care of your other meals. There are also two very affectionate dogs, Sage and Judge, who will follow you around and play fetch if you start to feel lonely or miss your own pets. You won't find a TV, microwave, or minibar anywhere on the premises, but if you're looking to get away from everyone else and just spend a quiet night away with your honey... then this is the spot.

We spent 5 blissful nights here and came away totally relaxed and satisfied! Margie is a lovely hostess and generously relinqueshes her beautiful and comfortable home entirely to her guests. We stayed in Elizabeth's room which has its own private outdoor seating, a most comfortable bed and very large bathroom. It's the only bedroom downstairs in the house, quiet & private. Breakfast is served until 10 AM, so we were able to sleep in everyday without missing the fabulous breakfast, usually fresh eggs from Margie's chickens and wonderful homemade jam. We spent hours eah day reading on the beautiful deck overlooking the meadow, forest & pond before going out into civilization. There are beautiful flower gardens and frequent deer sitings. Although there's WiFi and a land (phone) line for guests, the quiet is almost deafening. Every nook & cranny is impossibly clean, inside and out. I can't recommend it enough and we'll surely return.

If you have never slept in a redwood forest, you should come to Mendocino Farmhouse B&B. It was a quiet I have never experienced and my husband and I slept very well. Then we enjoyed a full hot breakfast each of the 2 mornings we were there and enjoyed seeing the blooms in the gardens, conversation with the other guests, and the lovely clearing where this inn and its barn and henhouse are located.

Lovely farmhouse in a wooded forest with beautiful gardens. Our host, Margie, made wonderful breakfasts and our room was cozy and warm. It was so nice to sit out on the private deck adjoining our room...very peaceful and quiet. Highly recommemded!

Very comfortable room, fireplace made it very cozy and enjoyable. Food was outstanding. Owner very familiar with area and gave excellent advice answering the questions we asked. Her suggestions made out vist to Mendocino much more enjoyable.

The room was absolutely perfect and the residence setting was hidden and romantic. However, we felt like an imposition inside a private residence the entire time. We missed that "made with love" aspect of the breakfast (cold coffee, basic spread). I asked myself "I set my alarm for "this"!?! Overall, we found ourselves wishing we had stayed 2 miles west on the ocean.

The setting of the Farmhouse was lovely, deep in the redwood forest with lovely gardens and a pond. We saw deer in the yard every morning and evening. House was very cozy, bed was comfortable. Just a short drive into Mendocino.

The setting was lovely. The breakfasts were creative and delicious and the innkeeper, Marge, could not have made us feel more comfortable. It was a delightful experience.

It was so quiet and peaceful - a true getaway. Beautiful gardens, surrounded by forest. My specific dietary needs were graciously accommodated. The breakfasts were delicious. Our room was lovely and quite comfortable, although it got surprisingly warm at night. The living room was a very pleasant place to hang out, reading. I would definitely stay there again, and I'd recommend it to friends.

Margie, the owner and her Lab Sage were there to greet me! I have stayed in many B & B's in the US and abroad! This establishment was very clean, organized and friendly! I would stay again when in the North Coast Mendocino area!

We loved it!! The best part was the location...it's close to everything but far away from the tourist bustle. The gardens were SPECTACULAR. I can only imagine the amount of love and care that goes into them. We sat out in the garden watching the deer in the meadow in the afternoon sun. The room was clean, the bed was very comfortable, the wood burning fireplace was great, there were fresh flowers (from the garden) in the room, Margie was wonderful, there was a small frig in the room, the food was good (fresh eggs!). We had room in the parking spot to leave our kayaks and bikes and didn't have to worry about anyone stealing them. The room was a little smaller than we anticipated and the bathroom fixtures were a bit low (I'm 6 feet tall), but definately a place to go back to.

Who'd want to stay in a barn??? WE WOULD again!! Instead of the main house, we chose a room in the ivy covered barn for privacy and got so much more. Very charming with hardwood - floor to ceiling, wood burning fireplace, set in its own private garden, claw foot tub and shower, and all only ten feet from car which saved my back too. This is what a B&B should be. Margie is a wonderful host and cooks with fresh herbs and eggs from her own chickens. Her little helpers are the best too. Breakfast was on a sunny patio under the redwoods. Set back from the ocean, this gem is protected from the wind and away from the heavy coast fog. It's only five minutes from town and a great value. We'll be back soon. Thanks Margie.

The place is very beautiful and we would have definitly gone back if it wasn't for the innkeeper, so was never there and very unwelcoming. The helper who made us breakfast every morning was great. It was really to bad, since my husband and I were on our honeymoon and really looking forward to a great time and she ruined it for us!

We really enjoyed our recent visit to the Farmhouse. Very pleasant owner/innkeeper who was helpful with all aspects of our stay. Offered tips on activities, restaurants, etc. The breakfasts were scrumptious and the environment quite peaceful.

For our anniversary my wife and I stayed in the cedar room at the farmhouse. This B&B is secluded from downtown Mendocino, and felt like a relaxing retreat. The orange wheat pancakes and homemade seasoned scrambled egg breakfast was amazing. Definitely worth it!
