Coast Guard House has stood on a bluff over-looking the rugged Mendocino Coast for over a hundred years. The inn, a 1901 Cape Cod, was once home to brave sea rescuers who performed their duties just a few hundred feet away.

Designs of the era stressed a return to fine craftsmanship and promoted simple, uncluttered interiors in rebellion against the Victorian excesses popular at the same time.
In the tradition of these turn-of-the-century craftsmen, we have decorated the Coast Guard House with comfortable furnishings, quality linens, the work of local artists and craftspeople, as well as mementos of the inns maritime history. |

Most of our guests come to our inn for a relaxing and romantic get-away, to read in the garden, sip wine around the living room fireplace, soak in the outdoor hot tub or just explore Arena Cove. But for those seeking additional adventure, opportunities abound!
