Quiet stay under the trees
Really quiet and peaceful little house in a neighborhood surrounded with big redwoods.
The skylights provide a lot of nice natural light during the day and the front deck was nice to relax on. Also the property is fenced, so great for dogs. Hosts were super responsive and friendly!
