Horribly thin walls, no facilities, no front desk. Cheap Chinese door locks. No amenities. Can hear everything from other rooms. Dont come here looking for peace & relaxation. This ‘inn’ is just a small room with a bed to sleep in.
Only saving grace is location, close to Van Damme.
I had an amazing experience at the Inn at Buckhorn Cove. The room I booked was not only clean and comfortable, but it also came with a charming fireplace that added to the cozy ambiance. The location right on Route 1 was incredibly convenient, granting easy access to Mendocino town and various other attractions.
However, there’s one crucial tip I’d like to share: make sure to receive an email from the host with all the check-in details, including the entry code, prior to your arrival. This is essential because the inn lacks a front desk for check-in, and the area has limited mobile coverage. The host, Amy, is an absolute lifesaver and incredibly helpful, so reaching out to her is a breeze if you’re in need.
The bathroom facilities were top-notch, and I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect place to unwind. With its excellent amenities and Amy’s attentive assistance, I wholeheartedly recommend the Inn at Buckhorn Cove to anyone looking for a memorable stay.
More like 3.5 stars. Must pick up keys at a different location in Mendocino before arriving to this inn. Can drop off keys in a bin near the inn. It was a decent place to stay at but there were some issues with the place.
Pros: No bug problem. I did keep the place as clean as possible with no crumbs to avoid ants. Very comfortable and roomy clean bathroom. Great showers. They have fridge and microwave. Very pet friendly. They left some treats for my dog as well as some poop bags and bed sheet and towel for pet. It was nice and quiet.
Cons: When turning on the microwave, there was a strong burnt smell permeating in the room. Bed sheets, blankets and towels had a musty odor. It was understandable to not use strong fragrance to be eco-friendly but the musty smell can be pungent. Not many places to walk nearby. It was difficult to close screen door in the room.
Wonderful little cottages looking out over the ocean, just a few minutes out of Mendocino. We stayed for a couple of nights as a stop on a road trip and really enjoyed this place, and the hospitality we received from Anne and Hank. They even left us a card when they heard it was our anniversary! The views are spectacular, the bed is extremely comfortable, and there are only a few cottages on the property, so it was very quiet and relaxing. Mendocino itself is a wonderful little town filled with shops and restaurants. Definitely worth checking out.
Stayed in the Zen Suite for a Family of 3 trip for our Wedding Anniversary. The place was everything we dreamed of and needed for a nice quiet getaway! The room was perfectly laid out and had a beautiful ocean view on a clear day (which all days were clear for us in May). The spa tub was the cherry on top for true relaxing therapy. The kitchenette was also perfect…and we appreciated the full fridge! Many people bring down the reviews due to being located remotely…but this is why we chose this place :)!
