Why stay here

Best base for a Painted Canyon hike plus a north-shore drive in one morning, before the heat makes both miserable.

Small independent inn in Mecca, the closest lodging cluster to the Salton Sea's north shore and Painted Canyon's trailheads. The Mecca Inn sits in Mecca, Salton Sea and reads as a motel property. There is no pool on this property, which is unusual for the desert — worth knowing before you book a summer stay. Parking is free. No resort fee is charged, so the nightly rate you see is close to what you pay. Pets are not accepted. We think it works best for painted canyon and north-shore trips.
