This place is on a working warf with lots of boats going in and out of the harbor, lots of great places to eat and the view from the balcony was awesome. Witnessed a group of seal lions feeding, lots of birds, etc. The sunset was spectacular. Way more than what we expected. Loved it.

Nothing boujee but enjoyed our 1 night stay. We stayed in the king waterfront room with the deck on the river and so glad we did. Watched the boats come and go and the seals play. The bed was comfortable and room was clean. The electronic check in and out was easy.

Spotless room, effortless digital check-in—only comment is that the shower was too small—hard to turn around because the stall was so small and shower head stuck out so far

We spent one night in am Economy room with our two kids. In our room the was not any microwave oven, as we expected from the photos (and we needed it to warm some milk for the kids). The fridge was quite noisy and kept awaken us during the night. Everything else was ok. Easy parking, easy self check in, confortable beds.

Wonderful to watch all the little boats pass by. And one night there was a floating procession of Witches in kayaks floating through the Harbor for Halloween!! I would suggest that the property take new pictures of the section of rooms over the Harbor maybe using a drone because the current picture doesn’t do the location of the rooms justice. You really can’t tell how great their location is!! Also, sorry but you need a better chef at Silvers. We’re from San Francisco and we’re looking forward to great seafood. But we’re very disappointed in the quality of the food at Silvers. Otherwise we LOVED staying at Anchor Lodge!! We will be back!!!

I liked the proximity to all the Noyo Harbor amenities ! The room was very clean just not a lot of room especially the bathroom ! There wasn’t any shampoo in the shower ! The beds were very comfortable ! There should have been an extra nightstand by the beds ! Otherwise we were very happy with the stay here and would stay again ! maybe a different room( we were in room 7!

Stayed at the non-view (budget) building. It was fine, there were some imperfections. The ceiling tile is coming loose in places. Liked the phone check-in, pretty easy Next time I might try one of the rooms with a view of the river delta. Anyhow, not a bad deal for the price.

This place is hidden gem. The rooms are clean, online check in is easy and fast, they have codes for the rooms, so no need to go in and register. Staying in a working Harbor is exciting. Watching boats go in and out, the fog horn in the background, everything you need right there within walking distance! My first stay was 10 years ago, I try my best to stay here everytime I visit Fort Bragg CA.

The harbor view room was amazing got to see sea otters and a seal. Lovely view of the sunset. Not to noisy considering the restaurant above the room. Would definitely come back. Plus the restaurant has a dog menu and outdoor seating to enjoy dinner with pups!
