Headlands Inn
Map
Location: Ocean Community and Mendocino Village.
Historic Interest
The Inn was built in 1868 as a small barbershop on Main St. in Mendocino, Calif. In 1884 the building became a "high class" restaurant, The Oyster and Coffee Saloon. The owner at that time was W.J. Wilson, and he used the upstairs as an annex to The Wilson Hotel. George Switzer purchased the house in 1893 and moved it to the present location. It was transported by horses pulling the house over logs. John & Bessie Strauss bought the house in 1924 and resided there until 1979.

“Bonuses”
Rita & Jerry KEvergreen, CO
10/28/2009
We could not have been happier with our stay. The room was so comfy. The hosts friendly and helpful in a non-intrusive way. Just our style. We’ve never had such luscious breakfasts – and delivered to your room, with only a knock to say: Breakfast is served! As a bonus – free phone to anywhere (honest) and snacks way beyond what other inns provide. We recommend this place to any traveler who wants to be spoiled royally.

If a Nobel Prize were given for breakfasts, you would win hands down. A singularly joyous experience!!
