John's place is exactly as described - nestled in the middle of the redwoods, quiet and peaceful, and an easy drive of SF. The cabin was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed to cook breakfast and dinner - plus there were some delicious pastries, coffee, eggs, and bacon waiting in the fridge. If you're looking for a place that feels in the middle of nowhere but still provides easy access to all of the parks and beaches nearby, I'd highly recommend it.
