Tom is an excellent host! Tom was away the weekend my SO and I stayed there, but he was very communicative and made sure we had everything we needed before he left (even the hot tub was on and ready for our use when we arrived!). True to the description, Tom provided delicious granola, other snacks and juices, extra toiletries, local trail and restaurant recommendations, and a binder with more useful information.
The setting of Tom's studio is amazing as well. It's private and surrounded by spectacular, tall redwoods. Even though it's secluded, we were able to walk to some trails nearby and it was only a short drive to the coast. It also rained a little bit while we were there, which made everything that much more beautiful and serene.
Overall, I highly recommend Tom's place if you're looking for a quiet, relaxing trip.
