“NATURE BATHE” IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA

FORT BRAGG, CALIFORNIA (Sept. 25, 2024) – Experience the dramatic Northern California coast at The Inn at Newport Ranch (theinnatnewportranch.com), a luxury inn and 2,100-acre private ocean and wilderness preserve offering guests an unparalleled opportunity to “nature bathe” and adventure along the rugged coast and among majestic redwoods.  

The Ranch is a natural playground for exploration and relaxation with 1.5 miles of dramatic Pacific coastline and 7 distinct microclimates. Guests explore world-class hiking trails through redwoods and along panoramic ridgetops, horseback ride across the property’s working cattle ranch and take exhilarating UTV tours. They can also venture off-site for wine tours, whale watching, and kayaking adventures.  

For those seeking relaxation, the property is ripe with opportunities for relaxation and restoration – in its spa, sweat lodge and 23 thoughtfully placed benches for meditative moments, and stargazing under its certified dark-sky. Indoors, cozy fireplaces, board games, and sunset cocktails create a perfect balance of adventure and relaxation.  

History & Architecture: A Legacy of Conservation and Craftsmanship

The vision of 96-year-old founder and conservationist Will Jackson, The Inn at Newport Ranch is a testament to the harmonious integration of luxury and nature. “It’s like living in a painting,” Jackson says of the panoramic coastal views that inspired him to share this extraordinary land with others.  

Crafted from trees felled on the property, the Inn’s architecture celebrates the natural world with exposed beams, intricate woodwork, and organic elements that reflect the land’s character. The accommodations, including four guest rooms, three suites, and a 10-guest oceanfront home, each offer a distinct ambiance and view, ensuring no two stays are alike.

Culinary Offerings: A Taste of the Land

Dining at The Inn at Newport Ranch is a farm-to-table experience rooted in the land itself. Guests enjoy meals crafted from local ingredients—think honey and beef from the ranch, and wild vegetables foraged from the surrounding forest. Breakfast is cooked to order, while lunch, picnic baskets, and evening happy hours are tailored to the day's adventures. At dinner, two prix-fixe menus celebrate the flavors of Mendocino, or guests may venture into nearby towns for additional dining options.

Sustainability: Preserving Nature’s Bounty

The Inn at Newport Ranch is dedicated to conservation. In partnership with the Redwood Forest Foundation, the Inn donates a portion of every guest's stay to support the restoration and management of local forests. Guests are invited to participate in guided tours that explore the importance of preserving the redwood ecosystem, and every stay contributes to the planting of a redwood seedling, ensuring that this precious land remains protected for generations to come.

Location

Located off California’s scenic North Hwy 1, 20 miles north of Mendocino, The Inn at Newport Ranch is a scenic 3.5-hour drive from San Francisco or Sacramento, with private helicopter landings and nearby airports offering additional access. This historic coastal cattle ranch and timber preserve, is a hidden gem for those seeking an unforgettable escape into nature.
