This was a great place to stay. Earl and Linda provided us with lots of fruit from his own property and allowed us to use beach chairs, swim fins. The kitchen is fully equipped and he left us all kinds of chips, cookies, baking supplies, etc. Out the window you can view the ocean though it is a ways away... but they provide binoculars! It is cool at night since you are about a 1000 feet up elevation. At night you listen to frogs and birds. It is fully screened in. No need for heating or A/C. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Earl gave us all sorts of great suggestions as to where to snorkel, etc.
