Our story begins differently than most. Before The Inn at Newport Ranch, there was Newport — a small town that sprouted around a logging community in 1865. When the industry left town two decades later, its inhabitants went with it. Farmers soon took their place, constructing numerous buildings on the abandoned land. One of those was a two-story house; today, some 100-plus years later, the bones of the old farmhouse form the core of our newly-constructed Inn.
