“Mendocino Grove is a peaceful glamping retreat on the Northern California coats.

The Mendocino coast is no secret weekend getaway spot. While most visitors will focus on exploring the coastal town of Mendocino and its surrounds, there’s much to be discovered along the 90+ miles of Mendocino’s coastline. That said, if it’s your first time in the area, base yourself in the small town of Mendocino—beaten path or not, its proximity to trails, beaches, restaurants, and small locally run shops make it a must on any California getaway list. Or explore a new stretch of the coast, like the small town of Elk and nearby Salt Point State Park to the south of Mendocino. …” — Jessie Beck, Tim Chester 

“We’ll never say no to a camping trip in California—especially if it involves staying in a comfortable safari-style tent in a secluded forest by the ocean. This is exactly what guests can expect at Mendocino Grove, a 37-acre property on a rocky cliffside just south of the quiet town of Mendocino on Northern California’s coast. Each of the 60 tents has a bed equipped with a heated mattress pad, a campfire pit (which a staff member can light for you if needed), a private deck, and a picnic table. Tents are well spaced out to maximize privacy, while shared bathrooms are stocked with lavender-scented amenities. …” — Jennifer Flowers
