This was the 2nd time we have stayed at Fort Ross Lodge. It is an area of outstanding beauty along the Californian west coast and the lodges are well maintained and very homely.

It’s a cute lodge. I liked all the dinner ware they provide in the rooms. Every room has an ocean view. The hot tub was very nice. On the down side: the bathroom is a bit out dated.

Michael was great at check-in and room supplies. Room was good, hot tub was great but the jets are a little too much. Sauna was great. Wasn't too crazy about the Rueben served at the store across the street but maybe it was because Anthony did not make it. Pretty bland and skimpy for the price. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would stay again.

Thanks for the review. The jest in the hot tubs are adjustable. We hope to host you again in the future and will allow us to show you how to adjust the jets.

We had a very nice time at the Fort Ross lodge. We felt that the advertised description was accurate. There was indeed a partial view of the ocean which was very enjoyable. Moreover we had a private patio area where I could enjoy my cigar. There was a hot tub for us to enjoy as well. The staff, particularly Anthony was most accommodating - which we most appreciative of. There was a common patio where there was fire pit and an ocean view; absolutely delightful! (It helped that we had a very nice sunset to enjoy too). The only slight negative was that after a heavy rain, the bathroom floor was wicking up moisture (from the ground I assume; it was a bit damp, but we were given extra towels to soak up the excess moisture). Everyone was friendly and helpful.

We came here for a nice getaway and was visiting this part of the coast and this is as a perfect place to stop for the night. The room was good sized and I especially liked the table and kitchenette area. The warm white robes were nice after a shower or dip in the spa. I was told they had a spa and sauna which were real close to the room but we didn’t use them. The manager was super helpful and was very accommodating and wanted our stay to be the best it could be and made himself available for any questions or needs. Our room was well stocked and we didn’t need a thing. I wish we would have brought something to cook on the grill that they had on the patio, really nice feature. The fireplace was cost as well, weather was nice when we visited but it was nice for ambiance. The view of the sunset right off the patio was the best. Looks like rooms 5-8 have a better view but #4 was nice too. You can always walk a little ways to get that perfect view too.

My dad and I stayed in a dog friendly room. The view was awesome amd we loved the access to the bluff trail from the property. It was not crowded and very quiet. I enjoyed the clean hot tub the morning before we left. Great customer service. We would happily stay here again.
