This was a wonderful place for a short getaway. Shelter Cove is an isolated area that requires a difficult drive, however the end result is worth it. The innkeepers were very accommodating. We went to bed hearing the waves crashing and woke up to the sound of seals barking.

Great time, very relaxing?

Reviewed By Beachtchr22

My mom and I stayed in the hideaway room at the Gingerbread Mansion earlier this month. It was a very beautiful and comfortable, well kept space. The staff there were very friendly and accommodating during our stay, would highly recommend this place to anyone. We hope to have a chance to stay here again sometime. One of the best, and relaxing vacations we've had in a long time?

Ye Olde Danish Inn

Ye Olde Danish Inn has become a national and international beacon for adventurous travelers to relax in privacy and complete comfort. On the 10 acres private estate overlooking the Victorian Village of Ferndale, the Inn offers seclusion and plenty of room to breathe, while within proximity to the wonderful recreational opportunities for which the Redwood Coast is famous: redwood forests (nature’s cathedrals), secluded beaches, pristine nature preserves and lot of wildlife. As an added bonus a town that invites you to step back in time. We are located only a 4 to 5 hour scenic drive (Highway 101) north of San Francisco, CA and about 3 miles in from the Pacific ocean. We offer two very comfortable and very private suites, each with its own private balcony, overlooking beautiful views of the Victorian Village of Ferndale and the Eel River Valley.

Great Place to Stay

Reviewed By pyratejenny2017

What a wonderful place to stay. Tucked away on the hill just a couple blocks from Main Street. Private, quiet, clean, and comfortable. Uffe & Kamiko are lovely hosts without being intrusive. The property is gorgeous, with lots of birds & wildlife. Would absolutely stay there again.

Horrible & Haunted! DO NOT STAY HERE

Reviewed By D131WHtaylora

HAUNTED! DO NOT SAY HERE. I would give this place 0 if I could. This place is incredibly sketchy and haunted. My grandfather and I booked a room here with double beds for a single night on a road trip up the coast a few days ago. I woke up at 3am to the feeling of someone watching me. I turned my phone light on and looked around and no one was there. As I laid back down I felt the space beside my bed depress like someone was getting onto the bed. Then, it was like someone wrapped their arms around my body. I felt like I couldn’t breath or move. When I finally mustered enough oxygen in my lungs, I leaped out of the bed with all I had in me and turned on the light. Again, nothing was there. Room #23. My grandfather and I drove the whole length of the Avenue of the Giants looking for a decent spot to say for the night - with the idea of exploring the Redwoods the next day. We decided the Humbolt was our best option after seeing that many of the residents of the town were living in the hotel rooms of the other motels in the area. There seems to be a large homeless population here. Also many forestry service trucks were parked in the lot, which seemed to indicate something positive if they were staying there. We were so wrong about that. The other issues with the room were that it REEKED of cigarette smoke. We’ve been back on the road for 3 days and our clothes still have a twinge of that smell - even the clean items in our suit cases. The shower had no official nozzle, it’s like one you’d see at Venice Beach and there was either cigarette ash or mold on the shower curtain. My grandfather also found pubic hair in the tub matt. The overall cleanliness of this place was insanely gross. The other patrons of the hotel were also loud, kept their hotel doors open and were pretty intimidating.

Different experience in the world of Covid

Reviewed By 350gerrir

We were greeted by the owner (everyone masked and distanced) and checked in. She showed us around the beautiful home and to our room and then we never saw her again (quite different from other B&Bs I've stayed at but understandable with Covid). Our room (the Garden Room) was cute and we had our own bathroom but it was down the hall - no problem but you had to remember to take the key with every visit. The breakfast was wonderful and delicious and the chef very sweet. This home is quite unique and the grounds are beautiful. I wish we could have stayed there another day. The only issue was the bedroom was cold. The window was permanently open a few inches with a fixed screen (probably from the summer season). I just hunkered down under the covers and slept fine. I would love to go back after all this Covid is done with.
