The Inn at Newport Ranch has it all! It’s positioned on the edge of the earth where the land meets the sea, it’s seen centuries of history, and it holds 1 1/2 miles of ocean views and 25 miles of trails that enter giant redwood forests. We got a small glimpse into the beauty and wonder of this property, and it left us with a wanderlust for so much more. We learned a lot about sustainability on this property while experiencing a true luxurious getaway.

You may have heard about the beauty of Northern California many times before, but it’s something that you really do have to see to believe. After living the last decade in SoCal, I thought I knew what beautiful beaches looked like. Boy, was I wrong. We visited the Mendocino Coast in June, and I was blown away by the indescribable beauty and perfect temperatures offered just off the shore. We left behind the traffic, dust, and scorching heat to find the beauty, heart, and soul of California.
