We had a very lovely weekend celebrating our child's birthday and spending quality time with friends and their child. The hot tub was so nice to have due to weather being chilly. It took a bit of time for the hot tub to warm up on day 1. The location is great. About .3 miles to Starbucks. About .5 miles to the beach. Within 10 min. drive, there's everything you need (Target, Lucky supermarket, Wholefoods, Macy's, Walgreens, etc.) as well as a lounger movie theater and a very nice brewery/restaurant. It's also right around the corner from an elementary school which is also next to a park. Kids needed to blow off steam, so we took a ball and went to the playground. If we stay here again, I'd want to bring a bike or scooter for the kids. The house is in a fairly densely populated residential neighborhood but it's landscaped to provide maximum privacy. Beds were comfortable. The house had Sorry, so we played the board game with the kids.
