Initially it felt like an “escape room” finding the correct gate, key box, and then using all the codes to eventually get in. However, this lead to having great security to the back porch and the actual place itself.
This location is great! Very close to a grocery store, within walking distance (if you don’t mind the hills!) to beautiful muscle rock beach, easy highway access and easy highway 1 access. This place is small. We had 4 adults and 1 baby and it was cramped, but we were comfortable and were there really to just sleep, wind down and have a meal. This would not stop us from staying here again though.
Emerald was very accommodating when we needed her on our final night stay! The electricity went out because of a storm and we were needing to wake up at 3:00am for our early flights home the next morning. Ultimately we were worried about loosing cell phone battery and not having an alarm to wake up to.
So initially Emerald kept us up to date with the company fixing the electricity, but it was out in the entire area and they wouldn’t know when it would be fixed. Out of the kindness of her own heart (we did not ask her) she went out in the storm to find batteries for a lantern she gave us. That’s when I expressed my concern about our phones loosing battery and missing our flight. So she told me she would wake up at 3 to make sure we were awake also, plus she brought me a power bank for my cell phone so I would know that my phone would for sure have battery all night. About an hour later the electricity did come back on, but her willingness to make sure we did not miss our flight can not be overlooked!
