Or favorite place to stay in Cambria. Great location. Not on the beach, but it now than makes up for it by proximity to dining and shops. Wonderful property and friendly staff.
We've stayed at Rigdon House many times with our small dog. Very comfortable stay, large room, and a wonderful happy hour. Walkable to shops and restaurants in Cambria, and a short drive to Moonstone Beach.
Always love to stay here, very welcoming. Love the cocktail hour that is free each night of your stay. And love that everything in town is walking distance.
The location is perfect; in town near restaurants and shopping. The building is older but charming. The bathroom and front door could us some improvements but overall it was a really nice stay. Would return.
Fabulous little place with friendly staff and lots of extras.

Wonderful apartment. Very cozy, large, quiet and very comfortable bed. Pet friendly. Beautiful backyard patio and excellent location overall. Highly recommend!
Loved the extra sitting room with a separate door so someone could watch TV while the other person slept.
Loved the afternoon cocktails (was only expecting a glass of wine). Overall wonderful place!
We loved the location and the property! We had a spacious room in the 1970's building. Next time we will tryout the historical side that was built in the late 1800's! The back patio and grounds were amazing and the lobby, sitting room, lounge and dining rooms are a blast from a ritzy past. We walked to the Hidden Kitchen for an awesome breakfast with great coffee!
What a beautiful place! We loved our room, the location was fantastic, and the staff warm and accommodating. Fun happy hour!! Would definitely stay there again.
Nice place, old building charm. Good afternoon drinks (free) and a beautiful outdoor sitting area. Right in downtown Cambria so super convenient to dining and shopping. Accommodating for or dog a free parking. I would go back!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
It was a bit dated but clean. I think the price reflected the decor (less expensive). Staff was excellent. Coffee, fruit and snacks available 25/7. Great location. Will stay again.
This beautiful little Victorian inn is special. It's fun and vintage. The person who helped us check in took the time to give us a little tour. So awesome! We loved staying here and can't wait to stay again.
