About
The Joshua Grindle Inn is set on a two-acre estate with views overlooking the Pacific Ocean, Mendocino Bay, and the quaint village of Mendocino. Six of the ten spacious guest rooms have fireplaces and two others offer ocean views. All have private baths and comfortable sitting areas. There are five rooms in the main house and five in the cottage and water tower behind the main house. Each are beautifully decorated with Early American antique and pine furnishings. The colorful and lovingly maintained gardens, visible from the rooms, beckon the guests to take a pleasant stroll and to relax in the Adirondack chairs on the lawns. Here, guests can enjoy the surroundings and perhaps catch up on some reading, or play a game of croquet. Guests awaken to a delicious morning meal served in our breakfast room. This is a time to enjoy conversation with new acquaintances around the c.1830 pine harvest table, while savoring fresh baked muffins or scones, a fritatta or quiche, a selection of fruits and cereals, as well as yogurt, coffee and herbal teas. Every morning offers a new treat as the menu constantly changes with seasonal availability of the freshest ingredients. After breakfast, guests often choose to take a stroll along the headlands to admire the rugged, mystical, sometimes fog-shrouded beauty of the coast. The entire village can be enjoyed on foot for it is but a short walk from the inn to the restaurants, galleries and shops. The Joshua Grindle Inn is a place to curl up with a good book by a glowing fire or simply walk down a quiet path. The grandeur of the scenery revitalizes the spirit, giving one the chance to relax and enjoy life in a “New England” setting that time forgot.
