First off OB is an amazing chill and vibrant place with special places and people!
Second, Chuck and Helen's cottage reflects just that, my wife and i finished every evening with a 5minute walk to the our favorite hang out... the peoples organic coop to buy some vegan organic food and then straight to the lovely hot tub in the back yard looking at the stars.
The stay was wonderful and chuck and Helen went out of there way for us to have the amazing experience we did.
If you are looking for a real san diegan experience then don't think twice the CHBC is close to everything and the hosts are truly wonderful people!
Next time we visit we won't go anywhere else...
