Beautiful Day at Buckhorn Cove



Did you know we have our own private beach? It's called Buckhorn Cove and because it is a Cove, it is frequently super-temperate down there. It's just across the street a piece from our place here on the Mendocino Coast and in addition to spectacular rock formations, there's just a lot of nice, clean sand and some smaller rocks that are perfectly formed for sitting on and reading a book. It's not even hard to walk down to, unlike so many of the rugged and inaccessible beaches on the North Coast. This one is positively accessible -- yet you have to know it's there (no signs -- it's private) which means it's also uncrowded.

This photo was taken two days after Christmas of a couple of teenaged guests at the Inn. Who says there's nothing for teenagers to do in Mendocino? There's plenty to do if they like to hike or kayak or explore or just hang out on the beach. This day was warm enough to wade and it was only two days ago! Wow! We are lucky in our weather.


Here is the mighty Podengo and his junior side-kick in training, Remy Martin, that same day at the beach. Dogs are allowed off leash on this beach and these two had a blast, I am told.
