If you are traveling to the San Francisco area, don't hesitate to book this vacation home. We were traveling through the area in between Yellowstone and San Diego and wanted to see The Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz. We went to Alcatraz but traffic in the area was so bad on the day we went that we canceled our bridge plans. Although Alcatraz was great I was initially disappointed that we came to the area just for Alcatraz. Karen's place on the ocean was so nice that it more than made up for missing the bridge though. Yes, it's truly that good. After coming back early, we all agreed that our time at the house was definitely at least as good as the bridge, if not better. Thank you Karen
