The room exceeded my expectations, and the entire space is incredible. I met with the owners and spent every morning in The Store attached to the property. Highly recommend!

Really special place- we stayed in cabin 34 and it was surprisingly nice!! Large, spacious, with a peek of the ocean. I’d definitely come again. There were some ants but nbd. Some nooks and crannies could be cleaned better but again, nbd. Hot tub was a BLESSING. Quiet quiet grounds, comfy comfy bed. Big mirror by the bed for fun hanky panky ;)

Just WOW! Meticulous restoration and reuse of an historic building. Our suite was spacious and airy. Tastefully decorated with every amenity one could want. And it was quiet. The bed was SO comfortable. We hope to return.

Very charming boutique hotel. Room size is generous. We have a young one and felt self conscious about the noise they make echoing down the halls. Maybe rugs would help but again, no complaints.

Wow! I’m so glad we found this spot! Gorgeous historic space right across from the ocean. You can hear the sea lions in the morning!
Nice comforts in the room…fridge, microwave, coffee and a lovely little balcony!
Staff were superb and so knowledgeable! From hiking recommendations to dining options, they shared it all - which made our trip such a great experience!

Room was clean and spacious. The bathroom was tiny. It was like showering in a phone booth with barely enough water pressure to get your hair wet.
