Victorian Inn, Ferndale

Note the cool van parked out front. Ferndale is a tiny town a dozen miles south of Eureka, and about an 18 mile hilly bike ride from the Lost Coast of California. It is rife with restored Victorian buildings, including the Victorian Inn where we stayed.

I don't recall seeing an elevator. The ceilings are high, and the rooms are decorated differently from one another. We stayed on the second floor. Many of us enjoyed the common parlor are which had tables, board games, coffee and tea, and a computer with internet access. That was also where breakfast was served in the morning.

Curly's is the restaurant/bar downstairs. After hours, you have to go outside the building and re-enter it from an external door in order to get to your room.
