| Map of Sea Gull Inn |
Welcome to Mendocino CA and Sea Gull Inn, one of the original B&B Inns on the scenic Northern
California Coast. The house was built in 1878. A giant Holly tree shades the front porch. The private
garden has several secluded sitting areas. Meticulously maintained, the inn and its grounds are very
much a part of Mendocino's charm. All bed and breakfast lodging guest rooms have private baths
and some have views of the ocean.
ABOUT US:
George Switzer was born in Kingston, Ontario, Canada in 1838 and came to San Francisco with his
brother John in the early 1860s.
In 1870, George married Elizabeth Hopkins and in 1871 they bought ranch property in Westport, a
town 25 miles north of Mendocino. George sold the ranch in 1876 and they moved to Mendocino,
and with Alex W. Boyd bought the livery stable on Lansing Street from W.H. Kelley.
In the 1900s the house was sold to the Asa Bishops, then to a Mrs. Honeywell who in 1960 sold to
the Martin Halls. The Halls operated it as an inn in the 1960s.
They sold it to Anita Klaus, and she in turn sold it to David and Cathy Jones and Marlene McIntyre in
1984. In 1986 David and Cathy Jones sold their share to Marlene.
In June of 2007, Marlene sold to the current owners, Jim and Ayla Douglas, who had been guests at
the Inn since 1992.
