We had a pleasant but short stay at the FogCatcher, as the half-way point of a Pacific Coast Highway drive from San Francisco to Los Angeles. Cambria is lovely, and the FogCatcher is one of a dozen motel/inns offering the same set-up, directly across the street from the stony beach and ocean. Two issues took the FogCatcher down a star: 1. We checked in at 845pm without incident, and were given a laminated page with all the restaurants in the area, their cuisines, and closing times. There must have been 30 of them, in small 10-point font. We took this to our room, but by the time we were ready to order, it was 9:15pm. Uh-uh. Everything closed at 9:00pm. Except for one place open until 11:00pm on every day but Tuesday, the day we were there. I was annoyed that the somebody didn't say something when we checked in, something as effortless as “oh and by the way, all 30 of these restaurants close in 15 minutes, on the off-chance you’re thinking of eating dinner.” It would have saved us much grief. So word to the wise on that. 2. Breakfast was also stressful. The FogCatcher strongly recommended their “sister” motel, the Cow Tipper, promising breakfast in their restaurant or delivered to the FogCatcher with a phone call. In the morning I opted to visit in person, but after waiting 25 minutes for my single breakfast burrito, I had to ask for it to go. I can’t imagine it being delivered! Lots of other breakfast options there in Cambria - most with a view, so try them instead.

I loved this place. The view of the coast and wak on the beach right across the street was awesome. We enjoyed the hot tub with a fire pit and heated pool in the evening. The fireplace in the room was nice as well as plenty of room with a sitting area. A desk, fridge, microwave, desk, dresser,large tv ,an area for luggage storage and a decent bathroom with shower tub combination. It showed it's age a little and the bathroom could be larger,but overall a great place. There is room service or a restaurant at sister resort but we didn't use it. We ordered pizza delivery and brought danishes from our trip in through Solvang. Visited Hearrst Castle which was beautiful ❤️

I love the FogCatcher Inn. I have been staying here with my family since it was first built, and I will stay here again. That said, I am aware of the conveniences which no longer are offered. No daily room maid service. If you want daily cleaning it has to be requested 24 hours in advance. If you want more in room coffee or cups, that requires a trip to the office. The FogCatcher use to offer free breakfasts which was a significant perk--no longer. The management now suggests ordering breakfast from a nearby restaurant named the Cow Tipper. The problem with the Cow Tipper is that they are desperately understaffed. Waits to get service, your food or coffee and pay the bill are ridiculously long. Again, I love this Inn; rooms are comfortable, its quiet, great location and the staff is friendly and helpful.
