So welcoming and great ice machine!
We felt so welcome at check-in and through the stay (love the faux fireplace). Easy walk to great restaurants and the market. The list of recommended restaurants was so nice to have too. It’s also rare to have the ice machine work so great!

Good for stopover stay
Room was adequate for a stop over stay. Clean and well maintained, but bed was a bit hard. Amenities were basic, but view was fantastic.

I highly recommend this dog-friendly Inn.
I love this place and will definitely stay there again.The rooms are very nice, very comfortable and a great value. The host/concierge was so helpful and friendly, I really felt at home there. They were fully booked, yet the rooms were quiet and the other guests I met were also nice dog owners. On one walk, I met some nice people who said they usually stay at the Gualala Country Inn, but they were already full; they also plan to stay there again. The Inn is situated on the edge of town so everything is convenient but quiet. I highly recommend this dog-friendly Inn.
