It is a beautiful unique property. I would have loved a brochure with the history. The room was clean and nicely appointed, and staff were very friendly. I took away 1 star because the footboard of the bed was sharp and we both hit our shins on it. Also and the mattress was foam and not easy for either of us to maneuver. I would stay here again though because of its beauty i would recommend it to others- just beware of the bed frame.

What a great historic stop on our road-trip! We ended up staying a few nights to adventure and recuperate. The upkeep and renovations made to this building maintained the integrity of the 100+ year-old loggers social building! It was a little spooky in a good way! The staff were friendly and helpful. They even had a haunted 3rd floor night while we were visiting, and it was an excellent production in an unexpected place! My only note is that I wish I would’ve gotten an email stating the restaurant doesn’t function on the night we have arrived. There’s not a lot around to choose from restaurant-wise for road worn travelers.

This is a historic hotel with plenty of charm. Rooms are not air conditioned. We stayed on a day where the temperatures were in the low 60s and it was still a bit too warm in the room, although they do provide fans. Dinner was so-so with only one vegetarian option. There is a market across the street but it doesn’t have a huge selection. Closest food is miles away so keep that in mind. Again, this is an older property so rooms are not soundproofed at all. The staff is fantastic. Very helpful and friendly. Overall a beautiful spot but room was too warm and a bit loud.

Staying at the historic Scotia Lodge was one of the highlights of our trip! This beautifully restored 100+ year-old hotel is full of character while still offering all the modern comforts you need. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel genuinely welcome with their warm hospitality and outstanding service. The rooms were comfortable, clean, and perfectly captured the charm of the lodge's rich history. It's the perfect place to unwind after exploring the nearby redwoods and the Avenue of the Giants. Every corner of the property has a unique story, making the stay feel like stepping back in time in the best possible way. If you're looking for a one-of-a-kind place to stay in Northern California, I can't recommend Scotia Lodge enough. Beautiful historic atmosphere, friendly staff, and an unforgettable experience. We'll definitely be back!

Our second stay in a week at Scotia Lodge. It was another comfortable start. Only downside this time was the restaurant was not open and the shower was warm, but not hot. Suppose that comes with the territory of a small hotel in a small town. Overall though, not enough to deter us from staying there again if traveling through the area.again. Overall, great stay and pet friendly. :)
