Company information

Guia and Gary met when they worked together for charitable groups. Gary is a retired firefighter and taught life safety (he still does, when he isn’t cooking or greeting guests!). Guia works with charitable groups and teaches fundraising and strategic planning (and she still does when she isn’t making beds or welcoming guests!) Gary’s lifelong dream has been to own an inn so, when our dear friend put her inn up for sale, Gary made an offer. Then he offered marriage to Guia (who accepted). Guia and Gary are still around occasionally but have handed off the day to day operations of the Inn to their Son Brian and their incredible Staff. Brian grew up in Humboldt County and moved away for college in Santa Cruz, CA. When Gary and Guia started to think about retirement, he quit his career in finance and took the opportunity to take over the Inn and keep it in the Family. Brian has been managing the inn for over four years and absolutely loves the traditions and home his parents built while living the eccentric lifestyle of an Innkeeper. We look forward to our family meeting your family!

Property information

Imagine your excursion takes you through the tallest trees in the world, exploring tide pools and miles of sandy beaches and towering cliffs…or an adventure filled with ocean kayaking, mountain biking, hiking, river rafting and horseback riding. Imagine… Our Bed and Breakfast is located just minutes from Redwood National Park. Our prime location allows our B&B guest’s quick access to the entrance to the park. Enjoy one of our gourmet breakfasts, and 20 minutes later you can enjoy all that the park has to offer.

Neighbourhood information

We are in the Patricks Point neighborhood. Basically our neighborhood consists of a wonderful statepark just up the road, Redwood National Park just a bit further up the road, and the lovely little seaside village of Trinidad just down the road. It is a great community with lots of wonderful people.
