Top William Randolph Hearst State Park Hotel Reviews

Fireside Inn on Moonstone Beach

10/10 Excellent

"The. room was. perfectly located across from beach access. The only disappointment was the lack of a microwave in room. There was a. coffee maker and refrigerator in room but no microwave. In the last. 30 yrs., I have never seen accommodations not including these appliances. It was necessary to purchase a small microwave since I require this for personal use. Other than that, the stay could not be better."
