The Captain's Inn is a historic bed and breakfast that was
originally built to be the Pacific Coast Steamship Company in
1906 following the San Francisco earthquake. Located in a
quaint, historic fishing village in Central Monterey Bay and
half way between Santa Cruz and Carmel, the inn offers a
marvelous opportunity to see a multitude of wildlife. You may
watch a harbor seal swim by, an egret looking for fish or a
hawk soaring overhead. Wonderful waterfront views from the inn
relax the pace with a sea air freshness.
|
Accommodations include six guest rooms located right on
the river in the Boathouse and four fully renovated
guestrooms located within the historic main building. |
|
Each guest bed in the boathouse is uniquely made from a
boat, beautifully adapted for a perfect night's sleep. All
rooms have a private bath, gas fireplace, antiques and
outstanding views of the marsh, river, and sand dunes. In the
main inn, each room is decorated in antiques with a nautical
touch. Two accommodation offer a fireplace and two have
claw-foot bathtubs.
A full, hot, home-cooked breakfast is served daily. You may
request an Early Bird Brown Bag Breakfast to take with you on
your adventures.
Your hosts are both wildlife enthusiasts and love to share
their knowledge of the surrounding area and first-hand
experiences with you. Captain Yohn owns and operates Elkhorn
Slough Safari Nature Boat Tours for great sightings of playful
sea otters, seals and many birds in the slough waterways, all
just a few blocks from the inn. Sanctuary Cruises can take you
onto the Pacific Ocean for year-round whale watching and
special charters on conservation based, non-smoking vessels.
Take a refreshing horseback ride on the beach with Monterey
Bay Equestrian Center or if you're a racing fan, you will be
only fifteen miles from the back gates of the Mazda Laguna
Seca Raceway. If you happen to stay at Captain's Inn at the
end of July, the Moss Landing Antique Street Fair is one of
the eagerly anticipated outdoor antiques markets in California
where you can browse thousands of antiques and collectibles
for sale in hundreds of booths.
As you can surely tell by now, a stay at the Captain's Inn
in Moss Landing is far from the ordinary vacation. Plan your
family getaway, small wedding or group reunion amid an
abundance of treasured wildlife, spectacular scenery and
fascinating history with your hosts, Captain Yohn and Melanie
Gideon. |
