    We had a great stay! The historical building is super cool but has been tastefully updated and is just beautiful! They have a lovely sitting area where we played cards and just enjoyed the great ambiance. Ashley and her family were super welcoming. Great location next to the Skunk Train. We will be back!!

    I’m not sure if I can adequately express how much my wife and I enjoyed our amazing weekend staying at the Grey Whale Inn for our Anniversary! The accommodations rival any high-end resort in one of the most historic coastal buildings in Fort Brag, California. I have no doubt that Joe and Natalie’s (the Grey Whale owners) journey to restore and elevate this historic inn will soon become a location with a long wait-list for anyone seeking to experience the pleasures of a historic resort. The Inn’s history being the Logging Town’s local hospital complete with retained fixtures of a birthing unit, chapel, and basement morgue is more than enough to inspire the imagination of late night ocean breezes creaking the windows and walls. There are even more “special” enhances planned for the Grey Whale property that will add even more mystique for this destination stay. You may be delighted to find delicious eating within walking distance to include the handmade ice cream shop that is on everyone’s “must do” list. And to ensure your stay is complete… the Skunktrain and Railbike excursions have to be included as well as one of the area’s best keep secrets… riding the train out to Glen Blair Junction for live music on Friday or Saturday evening. I sincerely hope by the time you’re reading this you are able to still book your stay… but I sincerely believe that it will not be long before reservations will need to be made over a year in advance. Good luck and have fun!

    The Grey Whale Inn was simply amazing. I loved the location, we could walk to glass beach and the skunk train. Everything is within walkable distance. The Inn served pastries and coffee every morning that could enjoy by the fireplace in their main lobby area. The room was very comfortable and we had our own private balcony with a small firepit and seating for a relaxing lounging evening after our kids went to bed. I can go on and on about the kind hospitality and the exciting renovations that I’m looking forward to coming back to! It was a great getaway for our family. Highly recommend!!

    P.S. They also have really cute merchandise with their logo on it (which I hope they will put online for purchase at some point :)).

    Natalie and her family made our stay truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed not as guests, but as friends. The Grey Whale Inn is in the midst of a beautiful transformation, thoughtfully preserving its old-world charm while creating something truly special.

    What stood out most was the genuine hospitality and care that went into every detail. Each morning, we looked forward to the delicious handmade breakfast served from 8:00–10:00 a.m.—a wonderful way to start the day and another reflection of the love and attention the family pours into the inn.

    If you’re looking for a place filled with character, warmth, and people who genuinely care about creating meaningful memories for their guests, look no further. We wholeheartedly recommend The Grey Whale Inn and can’t wait to return. Thank you, Natalie and the entire Grey Whale team, for such a memorable experience!

    Amazing spot in Fort Bragg on the coast. The new owners are so lovely and truly make you feel at home. The room had really nice touches and was recently renovated. We loved the vintage building! We brought our dog Marla and she had an amazing time – they even put a cute grey whale dog toy in our room! We will definitely be back. This place is a gem and owned by truly lovely people! Wish we had more time to relax and hang out in the lobby as it was also beautifully decorated!
