Our family of 4 had a wonderful stay! The backyard is amazing - especially lovely to read under the redwoods while the kids played happily nearby (they asked me to give a special review for the swings, which they said were some of the best ever - easy to go high, no pinched fingers; truly high praise!). The house was clean and well-appointed, and Joe and Monica were super responsive to any questions we had during our stay. Lots of beautiful hiking nearby, and an easy drive to the coast. We hope to return again soon!
