We stayed at the Library for 4 days. It exceeded all of our expectations. The host was fabulous, we met her when we were coming back from a morning hike at Russ Park that started just a few steps from the Library, she was getting the cobwebs out front. The place was spotless and very well appointed. We saw lots of turkey and deer right from the windows every day. It was the perfect place to stay.
It was a very nice stay at the library, we plan to make a return trip. place was very charming. It was nice to have a place without a TV, lots of deer and turkey to check out. Very close to town. if you walk make sure that you take the trail that's marked on the property. It's cozy with a fireplace. Windows we're very tall. At night it looked like you were sleeping under the stars.
Clean, well located, perfectly appointed.I actually made dinner for us & the two friends we were visiting in Ferndale in that well-stocked little kitchen. And the books! OMG. Fabulous.

Thank you, Thomas for your kind review. We’re glad you had a nice visit with friends (even hosting a dinner in the library!) and enjoyed your stay.
Sincerely, Sharon
Great place to stay , lots of history from the books and looking outside at all the wild life was so much fun. We met the owner, she was wonderful and we felt very welcome. Will stay again and will tell our friends and family about this place. Thank you for making our stay so much fun. The room was bright cheerful and very comfortable. There is not a TV and that was great, because we were able to enjoy the place much better .

This place is a perfect retreat from the bustle of the city. We loved the views of the farmland all around us through those gorgeous two-story windows. Every morning we enjoyed exercising on the deck, and I loved sitting with my sketchbook on the porch. We walked to town every day, and the trails through Russ Park are incredible. Hiking right outside our door! Thank you so much for a memorable vacation.

Beautiful property with unique, thoughtful art and character. Spectacular setting, especially drinking coffee in the living room watching a misty morning sunrise. Very convenient and close to Ferndale Main St & ten minutes from the beach. We rented both the larger property and the Library across the drive & it was a lovely family get together.
We always enjoy our stay in the Library Suite, to which we have returned at least a half-dozen times. Sharon and Sylvia are great hosts, and Ferndale is a lovely town conveniently located to the coast, redwoods, and parks. We love the agricultural atmosphere of this friendly community.
It was the best to wake up to all the deer and turkeys in the yard. Also there was a really pretty little hiking trail right across the street. It was such a quiet and amazing little spot
This was a great property, nice and clean! Located about a minutes drive from downtown Ferndale and all its cute shops and beautiful old buildings. Communication with the host was easy and very clear. The library was impressive, time didn’t allow for reading on our trip, but would be nice for a book lover who had lots of time.
We were looking for a peaceful getaway and we found it a the Library Suite in Ferndale! Such a unique setting and cozy inside space ... including a most interesting library!
Great little place, but feels bigger then it is with very high ceilings and lots of natural light!
We really enjoyed the Library House. Cozy, homey, and great location within easy walk to downtown and Russ Park. It was very clean, quiet, and had everything we needed. Loved all the books!

Thank you Gia, for your nice review. We’re glad you had a good stay!

Loved our stay. The Library is so cozy and comfortable. We did a lot of exploring of the surrounding area while we were there and it was so nice to come back to this little retreat to relax after a long day. It’s also just a short pleasant walk into town and we loved walking around the cemetery and seeing the view of Ferndale from up on the hill.

We had an incredible two nights at this lovely property. It’s quiet and peaceful. The wood burning stove made it warm and cozy. We enjoyed watching the wildlife through the big windows. A great place to unwind!

Loved our stay! Perfect location with countryside views. Great natural light, perfect for reading, and no shortage of books! We especially loved our early morning hikes in Russ Park, right across the street, and being able to walk into town for a bite to eat. It’s my second time staying here and I know we’ll be back again. Highly recommend it!

Best to you,

Wonderful property in immaculate condition. Short walk to local shops and restaurants. A really welcome break from the city and "run of the mill" hotel experience.
We will miss the cat !
