The California Bed and Breakfast Travel Guide includes nearly 300 quality-certified inns, expanded listings with photos, detailed maps and descriptions and photos of each region of California

Throughout each year the CABBI office receives thoughtfully penned letters, cards, e-mail... and heart-warming phone calls. These kind messages are delivered by a vast wealth of: individual CABBI Innkeepers and Aspiring Innkeepers; Bed & Breakfast Inn guests; business associates; as well as the media.

Since good news is always made better by sharing it with friends, please allow us to offer you a glimpse into our communications file.

• We would like to tell all of you - both the Board of CABBI Directors and members as well - how much we at the Packard House enjoyed the recent Town Hall meeting (held in Mendocino). We really enjoyed meeting the visiting innkeepers and love innkeeping... and hope to be doing it for a very long time. Thank you very much.

  Rick Anderson, Casa Tropicana, San Clemente
• When making phone calls (to statewide innkeepers), I feel like I am extending the warm hospitality that I offer to my guests who stay at my inn. Once innkeepers hear and see the kind of hospitable organization CABBI is, they can feel good about becoming a part of CABBI.
  Kelly Robinson of Ballard Inn - noting her involvement in passing on a good word about CABBI
• Thank you so much for coordinating the gift certificate donations from 20 (CABBI) inns for the Diabetic Youth Foundation... The bed and breakfast area of our silent auction was very popular with our bidders and contributed to the enormous success of our event.

• Having experienced a number of CABBI inns one couple writes: I don't know if your association ever provides special recognition to innkeepers who go "above and beyond." These innkeepers represent the very best your association and your profession could hope to offer.

• "We're setting the pace for other states to follow," said Glyn Davies, former president of CABBI board and owner of the AAA five-diamond Simpson House in Santa Barbara. "Our unified efforts are the first of its type in the country and have even reached the White House."

• We feel that educating our members - along with networking among ourselves - is vital. Underlying all that we do, as an organization, is the philosophy of cooperation... not competition.
  Ann Swett, Old Monterey Inn, Monterey
• The CABBI annual conference is one of the nation's oldest conferences for bed and breakfast innkeepers... It traditionally brings together some of the most experienced and successful innkeepers in the business.
  The Yellow Brick Road monthly publication
• Recently Meetings California asked planners to name their favorite small meeting sites. The survey revealed some surprising choices... Bed & Breakfast Inns... Chances are good that "novel" and "out-of-the-ordinary" - in the best sense of their meanings - are exactly what one will get by using a site that serves small meetings exclusively.
