Very warm and genuine family. The room was just as charming as the photos and the private deck is large, about 20x20. The canyon offers clean fresh air, birds singing, hummingbirds, a gentle breeze, and the feeling of being miles from the city. I did not miss AC at all and had everything I needed. The tranquility and energy were palpable and a much needed retreat with the convenience of being centrally located. 5 minutes from cafe and shops, 10 min. from SAN, 12 minutes from Shelter Island, 18 min. from Little Italy and the 101 Highway. I would be honored to stay again if they will have me.
