Gorda is clearly on the way back to the place we have known and loved. We feel qualified in making remarks about Gorda because until a management change that took place a couple of years ago, we stayed at Gorda at least once or twice a year for more than ten years. A short lived change in management resulted in... More

In the July 2005 the wife and I traveled to Gorda on Motorcycle from Chicago. It was getting late, as we had come from Monterey in the A.M. and decided to stop for the night in Gorda Springs. Jennie the manager was the greatest and gave us a 2 day discounted rate on the Garden Cottage, that we extended to... More

After reading the other reviews I think there must have been a major change in management or I have really low standards. After a jaw dropping drive down the coast from San Francisco this place was a spectacular oasis and a very isolated and welcome respite. I agree with a previous reviewer; if you want a spa experience with satellite... More

My son and I absolutely loved it! We even extended our visit an extra day. Everyone I met there was friendly and helpful. It seriously felt like home, we hated to leave. The surrounding area is absolutely gorgeous with many great hiking and climbing possibilities. Jade Cove is fantastic for the nature adventurer. Every beach is different and not nearly... More

Was going to camp and at the last minute bailed on that idea and booked a room at Gorda Springs. Remote location so not much to choose from and they know it. I wanted a place to sleep and it fit the bill. BUT - chincy on soap, paper thin walls, old bed. Don't expect much and you'll be thrilled.... More

We took a chance because it was a 3-day weekend and we had no other options except driving back to San Luis Obispo. The good is that this is a spectacular location and not pricey for a cabin with its own ocean view garden. The cabins are antique but ours had a shabby charm. Our bed was comfortable and the... More

ABSOLUTELY LOVED this hotel. The best hotel I stayed in. I dont think it was over-priced at all, not for the location and beautiful scenery. Nothing for miles, on a cliff edge, so so beautiful. We stayed in one of the motel rooms above the general store (there's only 3), the rooms were a bit rustic, dipped bed, old furniture... More

We stoped here without reservations and ended up getting the last two cabins available - Palm and Garden. Garden was just ok, smallish but with a whirlpool tub. Too bad the water disappeared from that room at some point in the evening and came back on with loud noises at 6 am. Palm cabin was big, with a kitchen sink... More

Add to the awful, overpriced food in the filthy cafe: fraudulent business practices. Specifically, the itemized bill INCLUDES their tip charge. This is unusual, and certainly presumptuous for a party of 2. But wait. When you give them your credit card, they return with two slips, but not the original itemized dining bill. The two charge slips specifically state "total... More
