Lovely little property just off the coast, can watch sunset from the hot tub at the right time of year, great little diner/seafood spot next door. Just down the road from Morro Bay and the elephant seals too. Will absolutely be stopping back next time we want to take a few days of quiet to ourselves.

Good place for the price. Nice to have a balcony and room looked renovated. Grounds are very nice. Tried to use the hot tub (that was extremely hot) but so did everyone else at the same time so didn’t stay long. Also had trouble trying to call beforehand, no one ever answered the phone. Overall though, I would recommend it.
