This hotel is very expensive by anyones standards. It is some, but not an impossible distance from other towms. That being said, it is located with a view of the most beautiful scenery along California`s coast. Each room is well designed and the refrigerator is stocked with wine, cheese, crackers,cookies,etc. Great for a picnic. The restaurant is beautifully done and the food is fancy and well done. The complimentary breakfast is just lovely with something for everyone. The staff is the best we...
Wow , I was blown away but this resort. From views, to friendly and helpful staff, to cleanliness of the room. Had massage as well and absolutely loved it. The gourmet meals were so delicious and to my surprise they were all included in your stay, breakfast, lunch and dinner. If you are looking for a quiet romantic getaway this place is a must! I will definitely come back. I don’t usually write reviews but i was so impressed buy this hotel. Every detail was taught through. Loved it ♥️
Beautiful location and the space is quaint. The cabins are so cozy, and there are several beautiful spots to see the sunrise, sunset and all the stars. Dreamy space, and close to several trails.
We really enjoyed our stay here. It has an old charm to it that we enjoyed. The rooms were clean, beautiful and well maintained. We could see the ocean a bit from our room, and wonderfully, we could hear it as we slept. The service was great abd they provided a nice free breakfast. My only issue was that the room was hot and stuffy when we first got there because there's no AC and it took a while to cool down. Other than that, fantastic place!
Staff was friendly and helpful. Cottage was amazing and very appropriate for a 4-person family. So much better than a hotel room! My daughters did not want to leave and are already asking when we can go back. Breakfast and snacks available made the mornings and afternoon munchies very easy. Great selection of DVD's. We will be making this our annual vacation place for sure!
Loved the outdoor fireplace; even though it's public, it's built for privacy. Loved being able to walk to the main street shopping and the beach. I will stay here again.
Wonderful weekend stay on the coast. Very friendly family owned inn. Rooms recently renovated, very comfortable beds, fridge, microwave. Daily continental breakfast delivered in a picnic basket to your room. Afternoon cheese and crackers, fresh brownies at 6 pm. Pet friendly, good choice of free DVDs to watch. Highly recommend this place to stay.
Recently stayed at the Rigdon House with my family for my daughter’s birthday she wanted to see the Hearst castle, we decided to stay in Cambria. What’s not to love about the Rigdon House- the facility is clean , comforting and the staff is warm and friendly. It’s walking distance to all the shops and restaurants in town , there are porcelain tea cups for you to make tea, coffee, cocoa and hot cider in it and happy hour goes on every night. Big shout out to Cristian who truly made everyone...
This property is excellent for a family. The pool is perfect. It is definitely better than being in Morro Bay. Less busy and more beautiful. I will be back.
