Relaxing weekend
Stayed for a long weekend with a friend. Beautiful view, balcony, fire pit, and we watched movies on the projector. Unique place to stay to slow down and check out the Lost Coast. Would stay again.

Not what we expected
It was a work out just to get to the house. 2 flights of stairs to get to the house then another 2 to get to living quarters. Ocean view from the backyard would have been nice if the neighbors deck wasn’t literally right there. Could not use the game room with the big projector. They did not mention you had to bring your own device. We have a MacBook and the adapter was not compatible. No dvd player or movies to hook up to. The only bathroom on the top floor had no window shade and was very uncomfortable to use. We left a day early.
