The Great Room at Brewery Gulch Inn: hand-painted coastal mural, four-sided wood-burning fireplace and breakfast tables

01 · The place

Corporate Retreats & Meetings

Eleven guest rooms on a bluff above Smuggler’s Cove, bordering 48,000 acres of meadow and redwood in the Jackson Demonstration State Forest. Book some of the inn, or all of it.

Built in 2001 from eco-salvaged “sinker” logs pulled from the Big River after 150 years in the silt — fifteen thousand board feet of first-growth redwood.

Gathering Spaces

A four-sided wood-burning fireplace, a hand-painted mural, windows onto the pines and the surf. Breakfast each morning, Wine Hour each evening, and the natural room for a full-group session.

The sunset deck looks west over Smuggler’s Cove. Take the whole inn and the kitchen opens up: private dinners, and the Chef’s Table — four courses with champagne and wine pairings, narrated by Executive Chef Stephen Smith.

Please note that private dinners are available for full-house bookings only.

03 · What's laid on

What’s Included

Rates already cover what most properties bill separately.

  • Cooked-to-order breakfast — pastries, artisan coffee, organic eggs and fresh-squeezed juice, on a seasonal menu.
  • Evening Wine Hour with appetizers by the executive chef. Many find it enough for a light dinner.
  • Mendo Boxes — appetizers in room-specific boxes made by local woodworker John Myers from the inn’s own salvaged redwood.
  • Wines from Mendocino County vineyards.
  • Dietary restrictions accommodated.
  • Fireplaces in most rooms, a library, a chess-ready common room and the DVD collection.

04 · Out for the afternoon

Group Activities

All of it can be arranged for a group through the inn.

  • Sea cliffs and a hidden cove on the Mendocino coast, surf breaking on dark sand

    Hiking

    Van Damme State Park starts effectively at the door — hundreds of acres of old growth. Or the three-mile Mendocino Headlands loop along the sea cliffs.

  • Two kayakers inside a sea cave on the Mendocino coast, looking out to open water

    Kayaking

    Kayak Mendocino runs rentals and guided tours: blowholes, sea caves, and sea lions in the shallows.

  • A whale fluke raised above the water off a misty headland

    Whale Watching

    Gray whales pass close offshore and the bluff is a grandstand seat. The Mendocino Whale Festival runs the first weekend of March.

  • Anderson Valley vineyards and rolling hills above the fog

    Vineyards & Wineries

    Navarro runs daily tours by reservation. Goldeneye does picnics through to champagne and caviar. Mendovino Wine Bar pours limited-production local vintages.

On-property wellness runs on your schedule too: massage in the Massage Pavilion, private yoga with Sara Bassindale, shinrin-yoku forest bathing in the pygmy forests of Van Damme, and sound healing.

Worth planning around: cell service drops out along much of Highway 128 and stretches of Highway 1. Most groups decide that is a feature.
