Cathy responded right away to my inquiries in making the reservation and was always easy to reach during my stay. The bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, house, grounds, and location were all exactly as described and pictured on their listing site. Their home is beautiful and they made me feel welcome in all ways. Cathy prepared a half decaf and half regular blend of coffee for me every day and even baked home made muffins that were delicious. She was extremely helpful with providing all sorts of sight-seeing information and has large binders filled with information regarding the popular destinations all around the area. They let you use their day pass for all of the State Parks and Beaches, which was another bonus. I stayed 5 nights and it was an easy drive to so many places, Santa Cruz, Carmel, Monterey, to name a few. It's located in a quiet neighborhood with beautiful views out the turret windows. The bedroom is spacious with a very comfortable bed and high quality bedding and linens. It was a pleasure to return to after a long day of sight-seeing. It's easy to see that they are very enthusiastic about being hosts and go out of their way to make sure your stay is enjoyable. I highly recommend them to everyone and would love to stay there again when I am in the area.
