We booked James’s place for a mini staycation and working retreat, and it really could not have been more perfect if we’d designed it ourselves. See the ocean from the hot tub, or from the deck chairs, or from the living room, or from the bed. Open the window a little at night and go to sleep to the sound of the ocean - nature’s white noise machine!
Go out or cook in, hot tub or walk, work or nap, stare into space or read something from the book shelf. We are local so didn’t really use the binder of info, but I flipped through it and it seemed very comprehensive and helpful. The neighborhood was quiet, and there’s a little store down the road if you forget anything or need an emergency Its-It.
- Wifi was good and reliable enough for getting work done or streaming.
- Space heaters worked well and came in handy as it stormed one day while we were there.
- One night, one of us wanted to go to live music at Bach Dancing and Dynamite and one didn’t - I dropped him off there and Uber worked to get him back.
- It’s a small kitchen but full-sized fridge, stove, oven, microwave, etc. and has all the pots and pans and such you need, so stocking groceries and cooking in is easy.
This is perfect for anyone who loves the coast and wants easy access to all the great little spots (nature as well as restaurants, etc) between Pacifica and Half Moon Bay and beyond. If you don’t know this part of the coast, you’re missing out! Weekend traffic in the area can be heavy, especially in the afternoons & early evenings, so if making a left turn onto CA-1 in traffic stresses you out, just go right until you find a light and take your time getting pointed in the right direction.
We hope to stay again or be invited to move in. :)
