This is a serene retreat in a sublime setting. Look out the windows; all you can see are redwood trees. Crack the door to the deck, lay back on the couch and listen: just the whisper of the wind and the creaking of tree trunks. I did not leave the apartment for an entire day. I just kept listening and breathing in the succulent small of needles, bark and blossoming bushes. I was attending a conference at the new 1440 Multiversity nearby (about a 7 minute drive) and rented the apartment initially because of the very reasonable price. But then as I looked at the photos and thought about it, I decided to extend my stay for some retreat time. I'm so glad that I did. If I ever return to the area, this will be my first choice of lodging.
