Great place to sample half moon bay living in this unique house! It is near the beach which is 10 minutes walk. Downtown is close by with many restaurants even though they seem all close after 8pm except for pasta moon. Hal gave great recommendations - 15 minutes drive south is Purisima creek trail head to see redwoods, 15 minutes drive north there is a nice sea food restaurant right in front of ocean. Fully enjoyed the stay and glad to meet Chris the owner/architect of the house also!
