Great setting and service. Some of the property appears to be under some ongoing and needed repairs but it didnt impair our use of the room. Will stay here again.

Okay for a Short Stay

Stayed at Fort Ross Lodge for a night — overall a peaceful and convenient spot right off Hwy 1. The room was clean but a bit dated, and the bed wasn’t the most comfortable. Still, it’s a nice place if you’re looking for a quiet stop along the coast.

This is the most over priced venue I have ever seen. Extremely dated. Not clean at all. My wife wouldn't even use the shower. This is evidence that anything can look good on the internet. Much much better options available in the same or lower price point.

Not much privacy and uncomfortable linens

The room was advertised as having an ocean view and while it did, it was an ocean view obstructed by the entire parking lot. At some point this view included a very tall sprinter van with its headlights on facing into our room. Additionally, to the poor view was a complete lack of privacy. The only choices for covering the sliding glass door, visible to the entire property, were blackout curtains. You could have privacy or you could have a view but you could not have both.

Fantastic little getaway...

We had to check in rather late and they were very accommodating- they even had a fire going in our room when we arrived which was very welcoming. The room was very clean and the staff were friendly and attentive. And of course, the location is incredible. What a view to wake up to!

This is a great hotel in the coastal wilderness off the Northern California coast . The suite room with jacuzzi over ocean view is highly recommended . The fireplace and free wood nightly may be a nice feature on colder nights .
