Ditch the sterile hotels that kill the vibe.
Host your next retreat or offsite in a cliffside lodge + rustic barn.
Nestled on the Northern California coast, Driftwood was designed for intentional gatherings. Meet in the rustic barn for collaboration, then unwind by sunset in the main lodge.The main house sleeps up to 12 across five bedrooms, with 16 additional guest rooms just a short nature walk away at our sister property.
Mention Elisa. She’ll make sure it’s the right setup for your group.
Driftwood: Firepit chats + Barn Collaborations + Great Room Flex Time
Shared space for group flow. Private space for personal recharge.
For retreat hosts & startup teams who want both inspiration and functionality
Retreat leaders and founders come to Driftwood when they’re done settling for:
High price tags that leave inspiration at the door
Cookie-cutter venues that feel like waiting rooms
Looks good in photos, but falls short in practice.
Just two hours north of San Francisco, Driftwood sits on 30 acres of coastal redwoods, ideal for gatherings that make an impact and leave people talking.
The goats bring the charm. We bring the setting.

From company offsites to family retreats, the experience speaks for itself
Whether it was a weekend getaway, a group retreat, or a full offsite, here’s what guests loved about their time at Driftwood and Ft. Ross Lodge.
“What a perfect visit! The hosts were so helpful, the lodge is beautiful, and we had the absolute best girls retreat. We absolutely LOVED the tide pools at Salt Creek and happy hour drinks at Timber Cove. The Fort Ross Store was a short walk from the lodge to pick up sandwiches and coffee and the whole town of Jenner was great to explore. Such breathtaking views and we are already planning the next visit.”
“Amazing property, breathtaking views. Excellent WiFi. Rooms were large and clean. Hosts were kind and responsive.”
“The ocean view from my bed was gorgeous. There’s free WiFi, a gym, and even a coffee & bagel bar across the street. A great base for guests who want comfort and flexibility.”
