Our Story
Living History
Our story begins differently than most. Before The Inn at Newport Ranch, there was Newport — a small town that sprouted around a logging community in 1865. When the industry left town two decades later, its inhabitants went with it. Farmers soon took their place, constructing numerous buildings on the abandoned land. One of those was a two-story house; today, some 100-plus years later, the bones of the old farm house form the core of our newly-constructed Inn.
Architecture
North Coast Style
How do you make a memorable setting? With memorable materials. Old-growth redwoods, one-ton stones, and a hot tub on top of a water tower blend beautifully, making our oceanside Fort Bragg inn as stunning as it is secluded.

Redwood Forest
While best known for their imposing height, our resident redwoods contribute to Newport Ranch in another, more important way. As marine air drifts over our ridgeline, the trees collect hundreds of gallons of water, sharing their supply with the plants below their canopies.

Coastal Meadow
Great blue herons, California quail, hawks — all can be observed on a stroll through our rolling coastal meadows. As you climb the bluffs, keep a watchful eye on the surf; you may spot the spray of a migrating pod of whales.

Committing to Sustainability
One of our guiding principals at The Inn at Newport Ranch is to protect, nourish and continue to be stewards of our land. Working in partnership with the Redwood Forest Foundation, we have committed to planting a minimum of one redwood tree per guest. With an average life span of 500-700 years, these gentle giants will outlive us and carry on the legacy of our remarkable Mother Earth.
If you book a UTV tour you will be given the opportunity to plant, and name your tree. Consider this would be a nice gesture as a gift to someone special or remembrance of a loved one.

Committing to Sustainability
We grow most of our own produce, source our fish and meat from local providers, and purchase wines from local vintners. In Northern California, there’s no better way to shop; we think you’ll agree.
