We had heard great things about Elk Cove from people we met at the San Francisco B&B where we stayed and were really delighted with the friendly greeting the readiness to let us look around before deciding on a room. We were lucky to be there on the "shoulder" where that's possible. During the season, you will need reservations. We... more

Upon arrival, we felt right at home. The staff was wonderful and friendly. They even gave us valuable guidance on local wineries that most matched our preferences. The grounds were beautiful and the scenery was breath taking! The breakfast was fantastic with many selections, all of which were delicious! We stayed in Surfsong and loved the view overlooking the ocean.... more

I have reviewed The Elk Cove Inn before, because I love it there, but also felt I had to remark on our rather remarkable wedding there. It was, and I'm not bragging, just perfection!!! I love that place, and would live there if I could. Elaine and her staff make your stay a one of pure leisure, and you want,... more

The Elk Cove Inn is on a beautiful location on a cliff. My room had ocean view with big window and a wide window seal with comfortable recliners in front. THe room was furnished with very well kept antiques, and exceedingly comfortable bed (with feather bed and down comforter) I received a wonderful welcoming basket with wine, cookies, chocolate, and... more

We just spent the most wonderful two nights in the Ridge View room. It is a cozy room decorated beautifully. You have a private deck with a bistro set. The room and deck face south so it is just lovely to have the sun come up over the ridge in the morning and spill into the room. The deck is... more

I recommend picking up dinner before returning for happy hour and eating in your room. The local restaurant we visited had good food but we waited very long for... more

Elk Cove Inn was the first B&B that my wife and I went to after getting married. Since then, we've been using ECI as the bar by which we measure all other B&B's, none have measured up. The best views on the Mendocino coast, spacious and cozy accommodations, complimentary Happy Hour (not the best booze but, with ambiance like that,... more

The Elk Cove Inn is our favorite B&B! It is in a quiet location and is a great place to detox and reconnect with your spouse. We've stayed here 3 times so far, in 3 different rooms, and have loved staying in each of the rooms. One of the best things we love about our stay here is the comfortable... more

My husband and I were tired of driving on windy rte. 1. I placed the call to Elk Cove Inn and was greeted so graciously by one of the proprietors. When we arrived, we picked out our cabin, unpacked, and went exploring. The location is awesome, with lots of trails winding down to the beach or up to the quaint... more
