The room was stunning with a meld of 1940s style and updates. The bed was so comfortable I’d consider buying that brand for my home. The staff were friendly and very kind to our dog who even got to pick a toy. The grounds are beautiful and take you back in time.

Staff was very nice and accommodating. Decent size parking lot. I was there for a wedding reception and stayed one night. The heater in the room wasn’t working so they brought up a nice portable heater that worked very well and kept the room toasty warm. I enjoyed staying at the Scotia Lodge.

It is a very unique lodge: beautiful rooms: we found everything we needed and the room was very clean. The hotel left some alcohol samples in the room, which is a great touch, along with apple juices and chocolates. The staff was extremely friendly, and accommodating.

Beautiful historic building. A tad Steven King The Shining about it though but it a good way. Nice people working the desk and bar downstairs. Clean and comfortable. Market right across the street. Coffee shop a short drive away. We were happy to be staying close to the Avenue of the Giants.

The info about a restaurant and bar onsite is a bit misleading, they have drinks you can purchase and snacks to order, self serve. Some hallways are very dark. Thin coverlet on bed. Someone's open sprite can was in my fridge. The rooms are spacious. The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful in reversing a charge made in error, right away.

Love the uniqueness & history of the property!
The room was large and amazing!
My only complaint, unfortunately they were short staffed & not any dining options at the time. But would stay here again.

This historic Inn is lovely, very well appointed & restored accommodations. Excellent service, beautiful upgrade to the property a few years ago. It’s a really quirky and interesting little town with areas of interest to explore, if you stay here, definitely take the time to walk across the bridge it’s a beautiful view.
That being said there aren’t really any restaurant options that then other than the hotel but they’re closed during the week in the off-season. The town itself is really unusual and odd but if you’re up here to see the redwoods or drive the avenue it’s a nice place to stay.

The building is beautiful and staff are friendly and accommodating. Aside from the complimentary morning muffins, heads up the food is liquor-store microwave quality. I mean no disrespect to staff just warning others. We enjoyed our stay and would book again.
