Spent two weeks at Les' place with my family and it was all that I could have hoped for: a beautiful and peaceful home perfect for when you are looking to spend quality time with the rest of your party rather than spending most of the day doing the touristy stuff. Les clearly takes great care of the house and that is easily noticeable: the house is full of different very nice and enjoyable spaces. In his house, you'll be surrounded by beautiful nature, you'll see hummingbirds, and also Les is kind enough to share with you the product of his garden. The location is also perfect if you want to take day trips to see the surrounding areas like Santa Cruz, Half Moon Bay, Big Sur, the Monterey peninsula... And the weather is much better than closer to the coast! Les was very accommodating and our communication with him was always very easy and fast. I absolutely recommend this house and this host, and would surely repeat! Thank you for everything, Les!
