Mendocino CA
Along Highway One’s rocky shoreline, the passage of time, fierce storms and strong winds have shaped a dramatic landscape. The vistas are breathtaking as the highway meanders through trees and pastureland, over rivers and past weathered barns and leaning fences before reaching Mendocino. This is the home of our Mendocino B & B.
Viewed from across the Big River to the North, the town of Mendocino appears as a cluster of New England-style captains' homes and stores perched on rocky headlands surrounded by the Pacific Ocean. Despite its proximity to the Bay area, and its popularity with visitors and artists alike, Mendocino has managed to retain the charm and pace of a bygone era. |
Anderson Valley
For most visitors, a trip to Mendocino includes a drive through the visually-arresting Anderson Valley. Highway 128, the gateway to the Anderson Valley and the coast, picks up just off of Highway 101 in Cloverdale. The road rises and falls for the next 46 miles through forests of oak and fir, sheep pastures, meandering creeks, the town of Boonville and countless vineyards before plunging through 10 miles of redwoods and finally emerging at the ocean. Just 2 hours from the Bay area, the Anderson Valley seems like light years away. This makes for jaw dropping beauty at our B & B.
