"The vibe: Cozy, bohemian, eclectic. Top amenities: Wood-burning fireplaces (select rooms), complimentary coffee and tea served in the inn’s historic restaurant. Best for: Writing the great American novel. What's nearby: Henry Miller Memorial Library, a literature-filled bookshop. This utterly romantic, historic inn maintains a quiet ambiance and effortless style by keeping things tastefully simple. It’s easy to imagine the rooms and grounds haven’t changed much since Ma and Pa Deetjen constructed it in the 1930s. Each of its 20 guest rooms are unique—regular guests all have a favorite—so do your research before booking. Save time for a meal at the inn’s restaurant whose intimate dining rooms are lit by candles and a crackling fireplace. Afterward, stroll to the onsite canyon where a diminutive waterfall contributes to the relaxed ambience."
