The listing info and very positive previous reviews are right on the money. We had a great stay of two nights, even with bad weather one day -- tons better than a tent! Murray greeted us warmly and stopped to chat as we wandered around his property and a bit of the backbones trail. A convenient extra is that stores, restaurants, and fantastic beaches are only 6 miles in each direction -- though on a slow mountain road -- and we did use the beach option.

The views are truly unique for the region. We saw the goats but they ran once they noticed our dog (off leash and happy as a clam), who got along with the Sumners' dogs great. (And they were only around with Murray.)

Otherwise it feels isolated and comfortable. Comfortable bed and dining space. Very functional kitchen (absent a microwave for power reasons -- the supply is from solar-charged batteries, also meaning there are no functioning electrical outlets). Cell coverage from the Airstream site was great on ATT and Verizon, and we used our car to recharge the phones.

But we could easily have done without any outside contact at all -- I never opened my new macbook. Getting up early to a beautiful vista and the smell of the ocean was a huge bonus. We left more relaxed than any stay at a hotel.
