Cathy and Ray are lovely people, friendly and helpful. Communication was clear and thoughtful. Their home is lovely and Oscar (the dog) is sweet. They offer plenty of information about what to do in the area and beyond. The passes to the state parks and beaches was a blessing. The place is so close to the beach and the redwoods. They truly think of everything to make your stay luxurious and comfortable from the fully stocked bathroom, wifi, cable, skylights with shades if you want to block out the early sun to a healthy breakfast in the morning. There is a private entrance if you want to use it. They offer privacy and yet are willing to visit if you want to do that. We will be returning to this treasure.
