What travelers are saying
- Dlsio4Allentown, PA49 contributionsThe lighthouse is a stunning building in a stunning setting and the little history museum is charming and informative. Well worth the 2/3 of a mile walk from the parking area, and well worth visiting even on a day with iffy weather, as we had.Written November 10, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Maryann LFair Oaks, CA1,312 contributionsThis is a small area of the coastline in Mendocino. The road is probably about a mile long with many stop and park areas. It is also just a short walk from the village of Mendocino. We were so fortunate to see this amazing stretch of coastline in fog and bright sunshine.Written June 19, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Robin BPhoenix, AZ1,415 contributionsWe do the fern canyon hike every time we are in the area. It is a beautiful hike along a fern canyon with the bonus of a waterfall at the end. This time, we took the North Trail to the waterfall and returned via the Fern Canyon Trail. I’m glad we did. It was a very pleasant walk through redwoods. The first half mile is uphill, but nothing too arduous. Then the trail is flat for 1.5 miles (where we saw several piles of bear scatt), and then you descend for .5 mile to meet up with the Fern Canyon Trail. The last .7 miles leads to the waterfall. Most of the hike on both trails is very shaded, so it’s a great hike in warmer weather. The entire park is worth a visit.Written October 23, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- Michael FAudubon, MN37 contributionsThe Kelley House is a great piece of history. You can tour the main floor and upstairs and see how people lived. There is a touch screen TV with a multi-slide where you can read all about the Kelley family and ancestors. The docent was very helpful. It's worth taking some time to walk through it.Written February 22, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Jon CSan Jose, CA147 contributionsSpent the weekend in the Mendocino area so I purchased tickets to see Mendocino Theatre Company’s performance of Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? for a Saturday evening show after dinner. The show started at 8:00pm, was about three hours long, and all I can say is that the performance was spectacular and well done. This is a long show with many lines and emotions and the actors were absolutely polished and made the characters come to life. Having never seen this play or movie before, my wife and I left the show thinking about the play and went back to our room and read more about the play’s plot as it was very thought provoking.
The theater was very intimate and as a big guy (6’5” 270lbs.) I was rather cramped in the seat but it was ok… the performance had me captivated.
For anybody looking for a venue after dinner in the Little River/Mendocino/Fort Bragg area, I recommend this theater company. We really enjoyed the performance.Written October 2, 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We spent a few minutes here, took a few photos and then was on our way. It's near the town center so worth a stop!Written January 7, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
