The Fox’s Den is a great place to stay. You are away from the noise of the City and minutes away from the beach and Nisene Marks State Park hiking/ biking in the redwoods. It’s also an easy drive south to Monterey and north to Silicon Valley in 45-50 minutes.
The house is full of light and views of the trees. On a clear night I looked up and saw stars lying in the comfy bed. Laura has done a great job with this house. Decor, furniture, little touches everywhere that make life easier. From shampoo to laundry detergent to covered pyrex dishes for your leftovers. And let’s not forget the coffee, half ‘n half and chocolates! I drink a lot of water and loved the ice/water dispenser on the refrigerator!
The front porch and back deck are nice places to read or just relax in the sun or shade. Was able to watch humming birds, mourning doves , quail, and woodpeckers. Inside there’s Netflix and Pandora if you want to watch or listen . Supermarket nearby and nicely equipped kitchen allowed us to make some awesome meals. It was great to wash our clothes before we left.
I recommend walking from the Rio Del Mar beach to Seacliff state beach. Go to the visitor center and get free maps -especially good one of Nisene Marks state park. If you want to access Seacliff by car you will have to pay but this would get you into Nisene Marks too if you go the same day.

Laura was very helpful and accommodating ,prompt and easy to communicate with. We would highly recommend this lovely listing!
