It was close to noyo harbor which is a plus for anyone who has a chartered fishing boat that leaves early in the morning so it’s conveniently located within walking distance to stores

Room clean but tired, it was nice to have a balcony to sit outside for a drink and watch the sea lions in the water. Reception ladies were very welcoming and gave recommendations of places to eat, however they were not to our taste, supermarket was our option and worked for us.

Beautiful view of noyo harbor and the bridge. Wonderful watching the seals and otters play and fish in the river. Only draw back was the sound of the traffic. Can’t be helped as the lodge is right next to the bridge.
