Our experience at Laurel's cottage was very positive. The quiet neighborhood is also very central to many areas in the San Francisco Bay area. Communicating with Laurel is very easy and she is very accommodating. The kitchen is very well stocked with pots & pans, utensils, servingware, and dinnerware.
It can be quite dark in the neighborhood and so the private driveway that takes one back to the cottage is easy to miss. On the other hand, the darkness was welcomed by the star-gazers in our family. ☺
Thank you, Laurel and Steve.
