Salmon Run - Massive views of the Pacific ocean and of the historic Noyo harbor

We loved everything about our stay in Noyo Harbor, and Salmon Run was the perfect home away from home. The home itself is clean, well-stocked, beautifully decorated, and comes with great views. I found it impossible not to ring the bell at the top of the stairs every time I walked by, much to my husband's annoyance. We cooked all our breakfasts and one dinner in the Salmon Run kitchen, which had everything we needed for preparing meals. So much is within walking distance--Sea Pal Cove with its crispy fish & chips prepared with local fish; Sea Princess, just stumble out the front door for some yummy clam chowder; Sacred Woods, filled with unique items is just a short walk away. It's an ideal area to explore on foot. Glass Beach and the Coastal Trial are a short drive away and offer stunning views and plenty of fresh sea air. Lots of little shops to visit on the main drag in Ft. Bragg. Cafe Beaujolais is about 20 minutes away in Mendocino, but worth the drive for a nice night out. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and hope to visit again.

The pictures online undersold this rental, we loved it! The view from upstairs was amazing! We loved watching the boats come and go and the two sea lions swim around. The house was very comfortable and had all the amentities. We also enjoyed the dock. The fireworks could be seen from the upstairs livingroom which made it perfect for avoiding the traffic and people. The location was great as well. We walked to Silvers on the Warf one night and to the Noyo Fish Company another night. We would definitely return here again.

We've stayed in Noyo Harbor before, but Salmon Run has been our favorite place so far! The view upstairs is incredible - we enjoyed watching both seals & sea lions swim by, and we spent many afternoons taking in the sunset. Our dog, Rigby, loved the convenient walk to the dog beach, and we loved the convenient walk to many nearby restaurants. Fort Bragg is one of our favorite places for a quick vacation, and we're looking forward to staying in Salmon Run again!

We absolutely love staying down at the harbor. Salmon run is the 2nd place weve rented through Pacific Blue and we will never stay any where else when we come over to Fort Bragg. All the places Pacific Blue has in the harbor are absolutely amazing and Carlon is so great to deal with and friendly, he responds fast to anything that comes up , Sherri the head house keeper is amazing and I enjoyed talking with her daily, the houses are always spotless and well stocked with what you need for your stay. Everything is just amazing. We love our stays there. Wish we could go more often.

Salmon Run was perfect for our long weekend getaway. The house is well-maintained and clean. We liked having the privacy of "our" own quiet place while also being close to Ft. Bragg. Our favorite part of the house was the large upstairs window with a fantastic view of the mouth of Noyo Harbor! We enjoyed sipping our coffee while watching sea lions and sea birds playing and hunting in the water. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again on our next visit!

Pacific Blue was just the place I needed for a short getaway to Fort Bragg. It was a great home base for quick walks to spots in the harbor--Noyo Harbor Inn for a happy-hour cocktail with river views, Sea Pal Cove for wonderful fish/shrimp and chips with friendly folks by the fire pit, divine blackened cod at Princess Seafood about two dozen steps from the front door, and a river kayak outing from Epic Graphics. Seriously, all within a five-minute walk! And you're steps away from a somewhat hidden stair that shortcuts the harbor road and gets you onto the main drag toward downtown, where Cowlick's Ice Cream, North Coast Brewing, and other delights await. A quick drive gets you to Mendocino to enjoy all it has to offer without paying a premium to stay in its confines. If you're like me and looking to enjoy the best restaurants on the harbor (such as those named above), check schedules as many are closed midweek. The place was well-appointed and hosts were friendly and responsive. Very spacious and set up for a comfortable extended stay, though with all there is to do you might only find yourself making use of the bed before you're back out on your next adventure!

We all loved Salmon Run, and had a delightful stay in September, 2022 Its very comfortable, is pet-friendly, and has everything we needed. We loved the second-floor views of Noyo harbor meeting the ocean. Great sunsets! The sunny back porch is just large enough for two people to sit and have coffee. There is interesting marine art and crafts on all the walls, a custom-built bookcase, and a convenient bench out front. It's been fascinating to be in a busy harbor with commercial and sport fishing. We enjoyed unbelievably fresh red rock cod fish and chips, and fish tacos, at Noyo Fish Co. At night, we watched DVDs in the second-floor sitting room. The fridge, stove, microwave, coffee station, utensils, pots, pans, dishes, and kitchen tools are great. Safeway is so close that its easy to pick up anything you need, even if you arrive late. We cooked some of our meals, and the dishwasher and double sink made cleanup easy. There are linens for the pull-out couch and master bed, and extra throws in a chest upstairs. (Note that if you have three or more separate adults, you may need to bring an inflatable mattress and extra bed linens.) There is a lot to do in Fort Bragg. We explored Glass Beach, had great coffee at Headlands cafe, rented a two-person kayak at Liquid Fusion (six minutes away), got an introduction to riding horses at Ricochet Ridge Ranch (twelve minutes away), enjoyed the Mendocino Botanical Gardens (five minutes away). We strongly recommend Piaci Pizza for their thin crust and fresh ingredients. We also spent a couple of afternoons and mornings in the many shops, the Good Life Cafe, bookstore, headlands, and on the beaches of the town of Mendocino, just 15 minutes down Highway 1.

What an amazing experience this spot is. Tucked away in the shared parking lot of the Seafood Princess and Sportmans RV Park Gallery, the Salmon Run is a two floor oasis in the Noyo Harbor area just south of Fort Bragg. The harbor is bustling with local and tourist action, but inside of the Salmon Run it is quiet and peaceful. Every nook and cranny of this place is beautifully decorated for the Pacific Northwest. It isnt over done at all, which allows the resident to casually experience each individual piece as their time in the home goes on. As you enter there is a small foyer, then seating area with pull out sofa and seating area. Nice sized kitchen table for meals, games and puzzles. Fully stocked kitchen and then a half bath with toilet and sink. Walking upstairs there is a second living room with seats facing the Noyo Bridge with views to watch boats coming in and out of the harbor. Sunsets are amazingly gorgeous. We spent a lot of time sipping coffee or listening to audiobooks just watching the harbor action from this vantage point. There is a back stoop that has a screen door which allows a beautiful cross breeze. The bedroom has the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in. If you are taller than five foot five, be mindful that the ceiling is sloped. If you are not able to remember, maybe sleep downstairs. The bathroom is fully stocked and the shower has good pressure and temperature. The best part of this spot is the personality of the home with decorating, and the ambiance of the harbor itself. All of the food places were delicious! Highly recommend Princess Seafood, Noyo Grill and Pal Cove. Drive into town to get ice cream at Cowlick! Even though the harbor is bustling, including live music at times, the Salmon Run itself is quiet and calm. A wonderful combination for mixed introvert/extravert families like ours. We brought our two dogs and they had a blast! Very doggie friendly, a good walking area including an easy walk to the beach, just be mindful no sidewalk. There is no enclosed yard, so dont forget your leash.

We loved this unit. Very clean, comfortable and exceptionally well equipped - nicest AirBnB kitchen we have experienced. Interesting location - right down in the harbor, overlooking a working pier and the mouth of the Noyo River. Very good restaurants within easy walking distance. If you have travel plans to Fort Bragg definitely try and book this unit.

Salmon Run is an absolute gem! The view from the upstairs living area is spectacular, and we loved how comfy the bedroom was. Some of the best nights sleep ever! Its located so conveniently to the Harbor the beach restaurants shops, and just a short drive to other attractions like downtown, skunk train, glass beach, etc. Carlon was amazing. We didnt need much because the place had everything, but when I reached out, he was responding almost immediately. Thank you! We will definitely be back.

This is our 1st stay and I cant say enough about this place or about the manager Carlon who was helpful and friendly, while I planned a last minute weekend trip. The views are amazing and the place is clean, well equipped, relaxing, and the bed was beyond comfortable (I am actually considering ordering the same mattress for my house). We come a several times a year and usually stay in Mendocino but this location is surrounded by everything you could need all within walking distance so it was perfect. It was great for our dogs because we could tire them out at dog beach which borders the harbor. Thanks for everything, we will be back!

We had a wonderful stay at Salmon Run. The unit was clean, and conveniently located at the end of the harbor. We were able to easily walk to restaurants, down the jetty, and along the beach. The views were stunning and communicating with Carlon was such a pleasure. We look forward to being back!

What a fun little rental!! Smack dab in the middle of working Noyo Harbor right next to the river. Home is immaculate & well decorated. Kitchen was fully furnished. Huge & soft king bed upstairs was super comfy. Views from upstairs living room was superb- the mouth of the river leading out to the ocean. Gorgeous especially at sunset. If youre going to go in the winter I would recommend asking Pacific Blue to turn on all the heaters some hours before you check in. The wall heaters & electric fireplace work great once they have a chance to get warmed up. Interesting location - great fun. Had a wonderful time!

Great location in Noyo harbor for a long weekend stay. Very neat and well kept dog friendly house, with an expansive view of the harbor and the pacific! Some wonderful places to enjoy fresh seafood near as well. Overall we really enjoyed our stay here.

Our stay at Salmon Run was a great experience from the get-go! Carlon (from the management company) was a very responsive host, and provided informative details prior to our stay, and in-rental unit recs during our stay. The unit was as described, with a pleasant bonus of an additional bathroom downstairs. It's a great size for our little family of 3 plus dog) and had everything that we needed. The dog friendly beach is pretty close to the unit, and a lot of the dining options around the harbor were pet friendly. The views were beautiful, and the location was central and convenient for our dining and explorations around Fort Bragg and Mendocino. If we're ever planning a visit to the area again, Salmon Run would be on our list of places to stay!

Salmon Run is a great place to stay. The location is perfect. It is right next to the Noyo harbor and walking distance to restaurants and the beach. It is clean and cozy. Perfect for couples that want to eat seafood and watch the sunset on the harbor. We thought it would be difficult to sleep with the harbor noise but it's actually very peaceful and quiet at night, and you really can't hear the noise when you are inside. The hosts Pacific Blue made themselves available to us for whatever we needed, but we honestly didn't need anything at all. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back!
