About Fern River Resort

  • Resort Room
    Enjoy the many amenities of the resort
  • Freebies
    This stay includes Wi-Fi and Parking for free

The Fern River Resort feels more like a summer camp than a hotel, with cabins scattered among the redwood forests just 30 minutes from San Jose. This resort property is just six miles from Santa Cruz but feels like it’s a world away from everything, tucked into the woods of a state park. The Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk is not far away, and guests can also find nearby golfing, hiking, and other outdoor adventures. A trip into town takes guests to popular areas like Ocean Street and Pacific Avenue, for shopping, dining, nightlife, and more.

The Fern River Resort offers 14 guest cabins sitting on a private beach with gardens and beautiful grounds throughout. There is a terrace and a library for guest enjoyment. All cabins offer a picnic area with a grill. Cabins can accommodate two to 10 guests, or more, depending on the size and style of cabin chosen. All are fully furnished with kitchens, private baths, and linens and towels provided. The cabins’ bathrooms also include free toiletries for guest use.

The front desk at this resort is only available during limited hours. Guests are encouraged to contact the property prior to their stay to arrange their arrival. This resort does not allow pets or smoking, but there are designated smoking areas outdoors. WiFi is available for an additional fee, and all guest cabins include flat-screen TVs with cable and a balcony or patio space for enjoying the outdoors. Many of the cabins offer beautiful river views.
