We have visited Ferndale many times for the Humboldt County Fair. The Gingerbread Mansion was, by far, our best stay ever. The inn is off main street, so it is very quiet - in fact, the inn was booked, but we felt we were the only ones there due to the silence. The hosts were more than accommodating and the... more

We were very disappointed with our stay at the Gingerbread Mansion. We visit Ferndale every Summer on our way to Washington to visit our daughter. We have always stayed in the Victorian Inn or Shaw House and have always loved our stay at these fine establishments. But we decided to try the Gingerbread Mansion based on the wonderful reviews it... more

This review may be a case of "seller's regret" or someone who is looking forward to their next bad vacation. In the thousands of people who visit us each year, no one has ever said any sort of negative thing about the town, the street, the people who live and walk here? Very strange. Our street on Berding is one...

After a stay in San Francisco, we wanted to visit the Redwoods in Northern California and Victorian Ferndale seemed a logical location. I looked for B&Bs in the area and found the Gingerbread Mansion's website. Based on other reviews in TripAdvisor, we booked two nights. The decor is wonderful, quaint Victorian, the gardens are superb and the owners are delightful.... more

The Gingerbread Mansion was a perfect place to stop and relax after a day on the road. It was comfortable and spotless. The historical home had all the modern conveniences contained in wonderful antiques. The gormet breakfast was served on beautiful "depression glass". The hosts were really nice, but very professional. Tea in the afternoon was a great touch. The... more

We were not members of TripAdvisor last year when we took our vacation to the Oregon & Northern California coast. But we are now, and just couldn't help but go back and comment on the wonderful experience we had at the Gingerbread Mansion in Aug 2007 .......... and what is so bizarre is that we were there on the very... more

My husband and I loved The Gingerbread. It is romantic and the town of Ferndale is an absolute hoot. They showed us all the rooms in the Inn and we chose a beautiful corner suite in the front and had the windows open all night for a lovely cross breeze. Quiet neighborhood with shops and eateries within walking distance. The... more

Outstanding accommidations and service. The inn is great and the innkeeper -Vince was a great host. The breakfast was as much of a treat as it was staying and the beauiful inn. Ferndale is a pleasent and relaxing town to go back in time and enjoy the many great people who live and work there. We will be returning in... more

At the Gingerbread Mansion we were greeted by Vince, who served as our host for our entire stay. He graciously gave us a tour of this amazing house. The Mansion was so comfortable; it didn’t feel stuffy at all, even though it was filled with charming antiques. Vince took us up to the third floor where he showed us into... more

I loved the Gingerbread Mansion! As a business traveler, I appreciated all of the luxuries of home in a quiet setting. Ferndale is about a half hour outside of Eureka. Whether I am on my way to Eureka, or on my way home, I have found this is a great place to stay. The rooms are big, I love the... more
