In fact, the inn has just about everything you could ever need during your redwoods getaway. All guests can enjoy complimentary tea and scones, in-room créme sherry, to-go style breakfast, newspapers, and access to bicycles. You'll also have access to places like the guest library, great room lobby with fireplace, and a game room with board games and pool.
The hotel's guest bedrooms are filled with historic charm and inviting decor. Located in the inn's historical and terrace buildings, you might just never want to leave the comfort of your king-sized bed - especially if the fireplace is going!
