North Coast Country Inn, Gualala

this is the place to go! a very charming, comfy, rustic getaway just north of Gualala and right across from one of the nicest stretch of beach in California. Very spacious main room with fireplace, kitchenette, dining table, writing table, four posted bed, and tons of quaint and interesting antiques and such. We also had a deck, which was great for the dog and for reading. The ownership is very cordial and accommodating. The breakfasts were very good, especially the crustless quiches. My only complaint was that the baked goods were not fresh, but hey you cannot have everything I suppose! The only real drawback was that our room faced the highway. Though there is not a lot of traffic, there is enough to remind you that you are not completely off the beaten path. All that said, I still would recommend it heartily!
