The Victorian Inn & Ferndale...Our New Blog!


OK. Let's get started. Starting now, we will be posting items we think will be interesting to our Inn guests and/or other visitors to Ferndale, The Victorian Village. And we trust that you will be motivated to add your posts from time to time, covering your personal experiences or observations about this, one of the truly special places on the planet. We may share some anecdotes about our positive experiences with our guests, or some funny ones, or perhaps some pensive ones. We also plan to keep you abreast of up-coming events and happenings in Ferndale, the Eel River Valley and Humboldt County in general. We may also report on some recently held events that we hope will prove interesting too. Our Inn and our village are small in comparison other areas (Ferndale has approximately 1400 residents) but our capacity to share and enjoy life, often including our guests in key roles, is huge. Let's see if, over time, we can find ways to convey, in print, that way of sharing and enjoying with you.

Two Fun Events Next Week...Both Invigorating!


If you're a lover of the great outdoors, this next week in Ferndale ought to be just your cup of tea. On March 7th & 8th come out to the Fly-Off Weekend at Humboldt Wildlife Refuge and live the breathtaking experience of watching tens of thousands of Aleutian geese fly off at sunrise. The gates open at 6 AM, and there will be ongoing events for children and adults throughout the weekend. Call 707-733-5406 for more info.

Also, on Sunday, you might get a kick out of joining in on the Foggy Bottoms Milk Run, a family event with the courses running flat on roads surrounded by beautiful farmlands and Victorian homes. Or just come and watch. The start and finish lines are right in front of the Victorian Inn. Call 707-822-1861 for more info.
