If you want a very friendly, tranquil place to stay with pines, coastal views, and hosts that truly value your business, then Brewery Gulch Inn is for you!

My wife and I have taken 2 to 3 night stays at Brewery Gulch Inn at least once annually since 2002. The ambiance of the Inn and the hospitality of the entire staff, from the owner, front desk, housekeepers, chefs & servers, has been consistently outstanding on every ocassion! And, unlike some destinations, what you see on the BGI website is what you get: "truth in advertising." No "enhanced" photo angles! And the breakfasts are generous, delicious, and filling! The food & wine hour is always relaxed & enjoyable.

When the Inn changed ownership late in 2007, we wondered whether its uniquely pleasing character would be maintained. Not only has it been maintained, but we felt that the new owner, Guy, has surprisingly improved on what was already a gem! The rooms have been refreshed with repainting, improved layouts, new carpeting, & updated bathrooms. The furniture arrangement in the common area downstairs lends itself more easily to socializing, if that's your choice, without sacrificing one's ability to claim your own separate private space. The landscaping was also being beautified daily.

We have been equally pleased whether staying in a larger corner room or a loft room. Be forewarned, however, that Pine, although a very nice room, can be a bit noisy in the morning since it is opposite the kitchen which gets very busy with breakfast.

We spent 3 nights at Brewery Gulch in January--a wonderful experience. It's quiet, clean, and low-key, very professionally run by the personable new owner. The rooms are airy and private. The excellent chef prepares outstanding breakfasts, and gourmet evening "hors-d'oeuvres" that we were happy to consider dinner! Note: If you like Victorian bric-
a-brac and dogs roaming the hallways, go elsewhere. (Stanford Inn up the road even allows dogs in the dining room--is there no health dept. in this county?) Brewery Gulch's decor is spare and Japanese-influenced, a welcome relief from the usual B&B clutter. You'll have to drive to everything but it's worth being away from traffic and crowds. We'll absolutely be returning to Brewery Gulch Inn!

My hubby & I were on a day long drive that turned into 2. We saw the Brewery Gulch Inn from the road & stopped in late in the afternoon to see if they still had a room. We had a beautiful view of an ocean inlet. The amenities and care the Inn takes to ensure a great visit were obvious from the moment we walked in the door, from the cozy fire in the common room to the selection of reading material, DVDs for the in room players and obvious attention to a variety of guests, we felt right at home. Staff was friendly & welcoming. The afternoon wine & snacks and gourmet breakfast were an unexpected treat. We will be back!

My husband and I spent three nights at the Brewery Gulch Inn. It is a great place and the atmosphere is welcoming and cozy. The owner, Guy, was the most hospitable host I've ever encountered. The late afternoon "wine hour" is a real treat. The wine and lite meal are top-notch. I'm a major breakfast person and they do not disappoint. You order off the menu and the selections are all well-presented and absolutely delicious. There is always something around to nibble on, games to play, music & movies to watch. It's where I learned to play chess!

We can't wait to return.
Thanks Guy and staff for a wonderful time.

Wonderful, homey, comfortable rooms. Wi-fi access which reaches everywhere in the inn, and on the property. Fabulous afternoon food. World's best breakfasts. Wonderful, personable owner and staff. Right near the town (you cab be back from dinner in 2 minutes, literally.). Nice views. Great wines. Wonderful frog and cricket sounds.
