We really enjoyed our stay at Penny's place (aka Helen). She was very communicative and the place is great value. We were mostly hiking and using this as a place to crash in the evening and it was perfect for that. There is no AC but since we weren't there during the day it was no issue. The place cooled down plenty in the evening. I recommend this place for anyone looking to stay on the North Shore on a budget who will be out of the house most of the day. Thanks, Penny!
