Christine was there upon our arrival and gave us a short tour. Getting acclimated without her would have been easy, however as she has everything labeled and complete instructions for the many amenities in the cottage. We enjoyed complete privacy and quiet during our four night stay. We loved the quaint kitchen and retro bath. Even the shampoo and shower gel were spa quality. We were able to walk to the nearby Trader Joe's and Whole Foods. It was perfectly located for our drive from SF on the PCH and our trip down the the Monterey Bay aquarium. We could have asked for a better situation for our trip.
