Scott's loft in the woods has such a magical, warm, calming energy that I instantly felt "held" and at home. It is the idyllic space for a solo retreat, and as it was so rainy during my stay, this is how it felt. That being said, when the rains calmed a bit, I was able to easily access the majestic Redwoods via a trail just a few steps from the property, and the canopy of the great trees kept be dry most of the time. :) Scott is a great communicator and truly wants his guests to feel comfortable and enjoy their stay.
The ladder to the loft bed is steep as described, but actually felt easier than I imagined. The view from the balcony is exceptionally beautiful! It is worth noting that there was not a place to store clothes, which might be a negative for some. I know I typically like to unpack if I stay in a place for more than 2 or 3 days. That being said, I would highly recommend staying at Scott's home for those seeking a magical, peaceful respite and very easy access to nature!
