We stumbled upon the Fort Ross Lodge and we decided to stay the night which was amazing! Reception were welcoming and we had a spacious room with a jacuzzi over looking the Pacific Ocean. This stay was unforgettable and we would love to stay here again!

Beautiful scenery and complete silence except for the birds happily chirping. A relief after all those motel chains in the cities, too bad we only stayed for 1 night. You get a spacious cabin and can't hear the other guests or traffic. I believe each cabin is unique, with different kind of options (like a fireplace) and different interior. When... More

We felt right at home there. Scenery is beautiful. Best service in a long time. We got there a little late she called the Resturant down the way to see if they would stay open till we got there to eat. Rooms very clean. No complaints

We were tired after having driven from San Francisco north on Highway 1 when we came upon the Fort Ross Lodge in the early evening. Sheila welcomed us with such warmth and friendliness, and before we knew it, we were checked in and walking to the water's edge admiring the wild flowers and enjoying two blacktail deer forage before sundown....

The trip up to Jenner was very last minute and I found the Fort Lodge Ross by chance, wasn't sure what to expect but was MORE than happy when we got there. Check-in was a breeze (and she gave us fresh baked cookies) Gave us a little mini tour of the property and showed us where our room was. Also... More

My husband & I both loved Fort Ross Lodge! It features rows of cabins which are well-kept & comfortable. Our cabin included a fireplace and was conveniently stocked with wood, a fire-starter log, and matches. There were several other small amenities provided which we found to be thoughtful & welcoming (& which we don't want to spoil for other new... More

Sheila was great. I booked online and somehow I selected the Friday instead of Sunday. She called to check on me once she realized I had not checked in by 7pm. She then fixed the reservation over the phone. We checked in o Sunday without issue. I had made reservations for dinner at the Riversend not realizing the arduous drive... More

Fort Ross Lodge is the best place to stay in all of Sonoma County and you would never know because it is priced so darn great! I have stayed at Timber Cove for much more money with a room one fifth the size and a small window view. Now, at Fort Ross you get a huge room with a sink,... More

Checked out a few rooms. One was under constuction, one smelled bad and the one we thought was the one ended up having ants in the Refrig. Mice droppings in the bathroom drawer.
