Bit difficult getting in as there was no gate code numbers on our check in information . Tried 4 times to get him.after we were settling in he called my husbands number.Once we crawled under the gate and got inside I found the gate code in information book so we get our vehicle in. . the owner suggested I take over his vrbo website.... then he told us to watch the white carpet because his wife would get mad. The carpet was heavily stained ... otherwise a lovely place and we enjoyed the place and the location.

Three friends came to bask in the beauty of the redwoods and this house felt more like a home. Beautiful quiet location. Private rooms for each of us and a dream kitchen for us to cook in. We were out so much I wished we were home more to enjoy the house and backyard. I would love to stay here again.
