Evan and Anja were fantastic hosts! They were super welcoming to both us and our dog. The bed in their guest room was one of the most comfortable we slept in on an entire cross-country trip (I had to pry my girlfriend out of it in the morning...). They are very generous with letting guests use their belongings (bikes, surfboards, hot tub, passes to Monterey Aquarium(!), etc.)
even though we were only there for one night and weren't able to take advantage of it. Before heading out they were also able to give us some great tips on which parks and beaches to hit on the rest of our journey. Did we mention a five minute walk to the water?! Highly recommended!
