THE LITTLE RIVER INN ON THE MENDOCINO COAST ELEVATES LOVE AND TEMPTS PALATES THIS JANUARY AND FEBRUARY
Winter Guest Packages at the Historic Ocean View Resort include Sleep with the Crabs, Rustic Romance, and Valentine’s Day Romance

If guests visit between January 18 and 27, they can also catch Crab Feast Mendocino, an annual festival that pays homage to the local Dungeness crab, as well as local wine and beer. As long as the tasty crustaceans are available on the coast, Little River Inn’s Executive Chef Marc Dym will be cooking up dishes prepared with this native bounty at the Little River Inn Restaurant and Ole’s Whale Watch Bar. In addition, to honor love, the Little River Inn has two tender specials this February. The RUSTIC ROMANCE package encourages guests to smooch and snuggle, and it includes a map to the famous Kissing Benches of Little River and an ocean view room with a cozy fireplace.
