This house has a lovely big hang-out room and backyard with a barbecue and hammock. Three things were disappointing: 1) it was musty. The note says this is the way a beach house smells; we've rented several places in Santa Cruz near the beach that don't smell musty; 2) we had no cell coverage (our carrier is AT&T); 3) there wasn't any warning about people walking through the backyard (the laundry in the backyard is shared with another rental and then a gardener walked through) This was just startling.
