The mushroom dome is a pleasant and dramatic change from typical hotel fare, pleasingly sited within a forest near inspiring redwoods yet very close to Aptos and the beach. I was there to attend a seminar and did not get a chance to hang out there much but enjoyed coming home to the dome. Try Kitty's goat milk; it was the best ever! Thank-you Kitty and Michael for your kidness and hospitality.
One note for travelers who need internet access; it is inconsistently available, best before 9 am and after 11 pm. It is more fun to just enjoy the view anyway!
