“A perfect balance of pampering and privacy.” – Pacific
Sun
“Once in awhile, we stumble across a place that is so close
to flawless, it quickly reminds us why we do what we do. The
Honor Mansion is one of those places. Beauty and grace emanate
from the very foundation of this white, Italianate Victorian
home set in a quiet, residential neighborhood under a 100-year-old
magnolia tree. Your first glimpse of elegance comes in the guest
parlor with its deep burgundy wallpaper, crackling fireplace
and period antiques.” – Best Places to Kiss in Northern

“Staying here is like being the guest of your best friend. You
will not find a more gracious host.” – East Bay Business
Journal, San Francisco
“The fine island inn continues to garner rave reviews for its
facilities, its location, its cuisine – but most of all for
the hospitality of its owner, Jonathan Chilvers, who seems accustomed
as ever to meeting the needs of the guests, thinking of everything,
right down to a written list of nearby scenic walks.” –
Stephanie Irving, Northwest Best Places

INN
“Rustic hilltop elegance” - Los Angeles Magazine
“ . . . more than a magnificent resort . . . It’s a true ecosystem.”
- Northern California Best Places
“It’s the best kept secret in Mendocino.” - The Oakland
Tribune
“Consider the facilities for a rainy Sunday like this: the room
looks out across a private patio to the ocean. A fireplace opposite
the foot of the bed, several cords of good wood outside, dry
and ready. Lots of crackle. Glass fireplace doors so I can leave
it burning when I doze or slumber. The bed’s a big four-poster
with first class linen, lots of good pillows. A desk, good chairs
– stuff I’d enjoy at home. In fact, that’s what this feels like
. . . home, not a room at an inn.” - The Business Journal
AAA 4-Diamond

WILLOWS
INN
“The ‘farm-resort’ style inn offers visitors an exceptional
regional experience…The meals are outstanding and accompanied
by a wine list nothing short of superlative…The western sky
is a canvas ablaze with color. From the front porch, I watch
the setting sun suffuse the Sound with golden light…There are
no man-made sounds…” Coastal Homes & Lifestyles,
Fourth Quarter 2004
“It
(ferry travel) is easily the most accessible. No long lines,
no extensive wait, and the price was right: $4 per car and driver.
The Inn is perched on a small hill, surrounded by woods, and
has an expansive deck that looks right over the water – a perfect
spot for whiling away the hours with a cup of coffee or a glass
of wine…A full breakfast is included in the room rate. I highly
recommend you stay for dinner, which I guarantee will be a memorable
experience…” Deborah Stone, Queen Anne News, November 2003
“…From
the deck, a panorama sweeps across shimmering Rosario Strait.
The silhouettes of mountainous isles fade into Canadian waters
against a vermilion sky. The loudest sound is the rhythmic hush
of waves from the beach below…” Coastal Living, June 2003

helpful, friendly and knowledgeable...” - Rob Reid and Elizabeth
Hendricks, The Stanford Daily
