Our stay at Ellen's place was everything we wanted for a one-night getaway from the bay area and more. Ellen was a communicative host. We arrived to a lovely, clean and cozy little house flanked by redwood trees. Enjoyed cooking in the sweet sunny kitchen, which was was well-stocked with cookware and even some ingredients and food supplies! Hot tub was great, also enjoyed lounging in the hammock. FYI the property does border other houses and yards , but the fences (and trees) block most visibility with neighbors.
