Longing for a getaway that prioritizes peace over packed itineraries…? Then set your GPS to Mendocino County, where lush forests, rolling hills, crashing waves and cozy cottages offer scenic and serene Quietcations.
Mendocino County offerings include retreats for renewal and reawakening throughout the year and throughout the county. From The Eros Monastery at The Land to Spirit Camp to Whisper Tree – multi-day programs with yoga, walks, and more promise tranquility and self-reflection.
There’s something soulful about sitting on the edge of a bluff, overlooking the ocean, watching waves crash, and whales gracefully gliding by. Now add a glass of wine to the scene and you’ll find yourself at Pacific Star Winery for a blissful and majestic afternoon of oceanside wine tasting.
Sometimes a soak in a tub is just what’s needed to bring on the relaxation. In Mendocino County, that’s taken to a whole new level at Orr Hot Springs with their mineral baths, communal tubs and massage offerings. The ultimate Zen moment is a soak on the tub-deck under a blanket of stars in the night sky. Stargazing solitude in a tub – yes please!
A California Coastal National Monument, the Point Arena Stornetta Public Lands is a treasure on the south coast with its windswept path and significant cultural and spiritual importance to the indigenous community. Encompassing 1,700 wild, undeveloped acres, this national monument is the stop for quiet contemplation.
Take time to reflect and explore unusual places for reflection in Mendocino County. Step onto the grounds of City of 10,000 Buddhas in Ukiah for prayer, pagodas and wild peacocks. South of Point Arena, an otherworldly site, only viewable at low-tide, is a beach full of giant spherical boulders known as Bowling Ball Beach – a marvel to behold.
Quietcations can include adventures in nature like kayaking in and around sea caves with Kayak Mendocino as your guide. Ross Ranch offers horseback riding along the beach or through redwoods for serenity; and for complete solitude, mountain biking throughout the Brooktrails Greenbelt on multiple tracks is just the ticket.
Don’t feel you have to leave the comfort of your cabin or cottage – especially at properties that offer extra helpings of tranquility like Mar Vista Farm + Cottages with retreats and yoga; SCP Mendocino Inn & Farm with wellness offerings, plus other lodging offering in-room steam showers or jetted tubs.
