The California Dreaming Artists Cottage (completely private) w/ a magnificant Pacific Ocean view from the huge sliding door of the bedroom was as it is described in the write up and even more. Photos cannot really portray the beauty of this place. Evan and Sahra were wonderful un-imposing hosts. They were kind, left us to our privacy but were always around to answer questions, etc. Sahra (Sarah) even did a load of laundry for us (as she insisted we did not need to give up a hour in a local laundromat and miss out on touring around). What makes this room great besides the view is the BATHROOM.. it is large with a huge open walk in shower. The room and the garden it faces is very Zen. Watching the sky light up in the morning with the peace and serenity of the place makes for the start of a very good day. Must recommend Julia's Restaurant (was one of the best places we ate in our 9-day trip to Cali).
