this spot is perfect! Doug is an incredible host. super quick to communicate if I had any questions and the lodge is absolutely an ideal spot if you are hanging in OB and its just blocks away from Hodads, Pizza Port, the Beach, and the main blvd (Newport). we loved the patio area and barbecued a few nights as it was nice to come back to after a long day at the beach. we fired up the grill and enjoyed some cold ones. you will too! oh and the beds are super comfy! Enjoy! we will be back.....soon I hope
