We were a short walk to the beach and to the end of the island to watch the sunset. We took my 95-year-old mother, and the town of Sunset was more than happy to provide us a wheelchair that would go on the beach. They dropped it off and picked it up. We had no problems at the cottage. Nice quiet neighbors. Nice place and easy access! ##### Sarah R.
