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

Our cabin included a fireplace and was conveniently stocked with wood, a fire-starter log, and matches.

Then they moved us to an upgraded room up in the tree area. The heater didn't work. My husband ended up fixing the heater. I will say... More

I went here with two friends for a biking weekend and booked an extra large room with two queen beds. It was fantastic and actually way better than what the website leads you to believe. The rooms are really light, perfectly clean, and smell great. We had our own fireplace, patio, grill, and mini kitchen. We fell asleep to the... More

This was my second stop at Ft. Ross Lodge.... so you know I like it. Beautiful rooms complete with wine glasses, microwave, refrigerator, cheese board and candle. Each has a nice little private patio with a grill (charcoal available). Some rooms have fireplaces and private spas. The lodge isn't very large, but the rooms are very nice sized, staggered for...
