We thoroughly enjoyed staying right on the ocean and in a secluded area away from the hustle and bustle of the Bay Area. House is small, but worked perfectly for my husband and me, our 2 teenage boys and my mom. Plus our French bulldog! Kitchen well equipped even for our Thanksgiving feast. And little store 5 minutes down the road had nearly everything we needed. Beds very comfortable and lots of couch space for family movie night. Thank you Emily for bring a great host! ##### Jodi R.

We found this place online and decided to give it a try. We’re very happy that we did. It was enjoyable from the beginning. It was extremely well furnished and equipped with everything we could possibly need and then some. The bed was very comfortable. The shower was luxurious. The hot tub was very relaxing and looking out and watching the sunset from the hot tub was amazing. This place is just what we needed Thank you Emily! Lonnie and Carrie. ##### Lonnie H.
