Murray (and Max the giant, black dog) were very welcoming. Both hard working ranchers who made sure we had everything we needed for our two night stay. The area is very peaceful with the exception of the canyon activity (bikers and sports car drivers)...it is absolutely heavenly at night! Nothing beats the romance of a So Cal sunset over Sandstone Peak, glass of wine in hand and a sweet treat under the endless galaxy of stars. Vintage amenities were perfect. Comfy bed and bedding, nice breeze with open windows, shaded bistro table and chairs and comfortable lounge chairs and blankets to keep you warm while star gazing. Everything was perfect! Only downfall was the not so pleasant smell coming from the toilet and the shower head or lack there of...but who's really banking on a 5 star shower?! In our case, it was necessary after hiking the Backbone Trail. Still...plenty of warm water to get the job done. Overall, an adventurous, memorable stay full of fun and romance! We'll be back!
