The Gingerbread Mansion Inn, built in 1894, is everything that the discriminating traveler has come to expect: elegance, quietude, charm, warm hospitality, comfort, attention to detail, antiques, romance, beatifully lush English gardens

Built more than a century ago in 1854 by the city founder for his bride, the Shaw House Inn was the first post office and courthouse. It is now the oldest structure in Ferndale and the oldest B&B in California.

Take a moment to relax in the unique and nostalgic guest rooms of our Ferndale hotel, which boasts of fourteen and sixteen foot ceilings throughout, and is beautifully appointed with vintage fixtures and furnishings, each room having its own private bath.
