Our trip took in the north coast of California, north of SanFrancisco. We chose Elk becasue we could travel to some other towns and see some sights. The drive from San Fran was facinating, from a major city area, through to small suburbs and then the countryside. The Harbor House hotel was waiting for us at our journey's end -... more
Don't believe all the bad reviews. The inn is under new ownership and also has a new chef. Also remember everyone has their own interpretation and opinions even though they have stayed in the same place. If you are looking for a plush and fancy inn don't stay here. If you want a charming, cozy and romantic atmosphere then this... more
We have stayed at the Harbor House Inn at least 12 times in the past 25 years, most recently in March 2009. The innkeepers have changed, the dining experience has steadily improved (and lately is quite excellent), and the view -- it is one of the most dramatic and breathtaking on the California coast. Make sure you take a walk... more
I honestly felt as though when I booked, they were a bit too keen for me to stay and I might have been right. It was a friday night hence I would have expected the place even at this time of year to be busy, if the food is a ood as they say. The rooms where compact, but clean... more
My husband and I took a week long roadtrip from Seattle to San Francisco. One of our stops was at the Harbor House Inn, and what a place! We were greated by name upon arrival by Linda, who kindly showed us around the main house, gardens, and to our room. We stayed in the Shorepine Cottage, which was fantastic. When... more
After a sweltering summer in many hot places, we happily pulled into the harbor House. God knows where the Harbor is, who cares? This old gem is gorgeous...lovely grounds. We were greeted by a very nice staffer who saw to our every need. Our room was huge, with $900 linens, terry cloth robes, a fire place, and my personal favorite... more
We stayed at the Harbor House Inn on 22nd June 08. We had not pre booked we were just passing. It would have been a good idea to have kept on driving. The only good feature was the room. How can one describe the food ,there was a definite lack of it on your plate and the charge of $65... more

We recently went to Harbor House Restaurant after reading nice reviews on Tripadvisor. Sorry to say that the food served is not worth $65.00 per person for a four course meal. First, they start you off on a Shitake and rice soup which they only served half a bowl and it was a bit watery, next a small bib lettuce... more
