We had a wonderful stay. This beach house is perfect for a large family gathering; it is big enough to allow everyone their "space" while still being able to enjoy the togetherness. It's obvious that Tom takes great pride in his home as he should. It was very clean with lots of nice amenities and he responded in a timely fashion to any questions we had. We loved the location not only because it was a short walk to the beach, but also because it was away from the hustle bustle of San Francisco and yet close enough to visit there as well as other beautiful areas south, i.e., Monterey & Big Sur. Would highly recommend!
