SCP Mendocino Inn and Farm - Bed & breakfast in Little River - 8211 CA-1, USA

What a cool vibe at this hotel. We loved everything about our stay. The bedding & mattress were amazing. I want to find out the brands!! The staff was attentive to our needs which we appreciated tremendously. The llamas were fun to watch from our mini deck. |A quick drive to the quaint village of Mendocino to shop & dine and gorgeous beaches along the way. We did drive the PCH which was a little terrifying in spots but breathtaking. I wish we stayed longer.

We had our first stay at this wonderful property, and we loved it. We had a lovely cottage during our stay that was newly remodeled and was so very nice. One of the many special touches was breakfast delivered to the cottage. We fed the chickens and visited with the llamas that were on the property. They have a restaurant that specialized in pizzas, small bites, and other items, along with beer and wine. The staff was very accommodating, and the GM Nickie Willett ensured our visit was perfect. This is a very unique property that would be great for not only couples but for families as well. It is very close to the town of Mendocino and beach access. You will not be disappointed, and my wife and I highly recommend this property.

I booked a night's stay at SCP Mendocino inn and Farm on my road trip with my baby brother. Overall, the experience is positive and fun and would recommend staying for a night or two if you happen to be driving passing this area. We booked the king room which is nice, clean, and bright with lots of windows. However, I personally felt that the square footage of the room to be a bit small and due to all the windows, the room could be quite hot during the day even with all the window shades down (no AC) and slightly on the colder side at night (does have heaters). The common area is quite spacious and well-managed in all aspects and that's indeed where we spent lots of time in the daytime. The staffs are all very friendly and helpful--the property shines because of them. One does not have direct view of the sea from this property, but the beach is close and there are llama farm, chickens, garden, and hiking trails on site--so lots of fun activities can be planed. The complimentary breakfast is also fresh and delicious, and thumbs-up for the hearty meal. __________________________________________________________________ Below is the Kayak tour review promised to Nicole (sorry it took me a while to getting to write this): We ended up booking our kayak tour with kayak Mendocino and we set off from the Van Damme Beach at 2 pm. The weather was excellent and the temperature very comfortable. We had about fifteen people in our tour and two guides to lead us. The guides are very nice and helpful--pointing to all the points of interests (like seals and sea stars) and telling us what to expect once in a sea cave (like a sharp turn or a shallow spot to avoid). The entire experience felt fun and safe, and my initially nervous brother was so confident towards the end of the tour that he wanted to kayak again with my father to teach him the sport although all his paddling does along the trip is to splash water into my face but I digress... We took a tandem and the price is $160 without any additional tips one might leave (cards & apple pay accepted). I would recommend the tour to you as it is a good opportunity to get to know the sea caves in the vicinity and to have some experienced people watching over you as you explore the fantastic shoreline. Hope you have fun and all the best wishes.

stopped in during our honeymoon, would recommend. rooms are spacious, we could see the ocean from our private deck, and the property is gorgeous (llamas and chickens!). There were journals in our rooms filled with entries back to the late 80's - felt like we were a part of the history.

We had a wonderful stay at this unique property. We were in the area for a wedding in Elk, CA and looked for nearby accommodation. This inn caught our eye because of the chance to stay at a property with animals. We loved feeding the chickens (the inn has feed and little bags at the check-in area) and watching the llamas roam in the pastures from our window -- we were in the Bayview room, and you could also see the ocean from the window and drink coffee on the little porch as well. (One note about the Bayview room is that it doesn't have a TV, so if you like to watch TV at night, bring your tablet or computer).||All of the staff were very friendly and it was very obvious that a lot of care and hard work goes into maintaining the property -- it was clean and beautiful with wonderful gardens. The farm-fresh breakfast was such a nice touch (featuring an egg dish with the eggs made by the chicken on the property!) we really appreciate all the care that goes into making it and delivering it right to the doorstep.

Our stay was excellent. Monsay was very pleasant and helpful. Morning breakfasts were delicious and they accommodated my special request with ingredients that I supplied, prepared better than I could have done myself, even accepting a last minute change in time. We love this place and hope to be back in a couple of years. Thank you so much for enhancing our vacation. We take your good feelings back with us to Connecticut! Seeya next time!

We stayed for two night in the Briar Rose suite. It’s on the second floor, is spacious with a fireplace, and has a south facing deck with an ocean view. It also overlooks the llama pasture and the Vegetable garden. Breakfast was delivered daily to the room and included an egg dish, fruit, fruit juice, muffin, and a hot beverage. There are electric charging stations for Teslas and other EVs on site. The property is beautiful, the decor modern, and the setting is idyllic. We loved it!

My family and I had a wonderful stay here. The entire property was so charming and relaxing and also very close to Mendocino Town. My daughter especially loved the llamas and chickens that she was able to feed daily. The daily breakfast delivered to your door was also very delicious. We met Nickie the owner onsite and she was lovely. We will be back again :)
