John's place is in an amazing location. We loved being so close to the trail near the water. It's within walking distance of Cannery Row as well. The cottage is small, but perfect for our family of three and our two dogs. We enjoyed the patio and the cable subscription. I was skeptical of the oil heaters, but they heated up the place perfectly. The one problem I had with the cottage was the lack of electrical outlets--there was only one functioning outlet in the bedroom and the outlet in the bathroom didn't work. Otherwise, the house is cute and in a near-perfect location.
