My sisters, niece and nephew and I spent about a week at Chris's artsy home and had a great stay. The location of her house is a 10 minute walk to a beautiful beach and well located in the quaint town of Halfmoon Bay, also close to wineries and horseback riding. There is enough room throughout the house and yard for families to enjoy reading, relaxing or cooking a large meal. Just note small children might be distracted/need close supervision with the large collections of art and knick knacks throughout the house.
