First, the summary - if you stay at this house on the beach for a few weeks or a few months, you will come away with a new, special appreciation for the Pacific Ocean, its power and its splendor, and an appreciation for this beautiful setting.
Pat is the most attentive owner you can imagine. She makes you feel a part of her community when you meet her for the first time (or earlier, for that matter, when you communicate on vrbo). Not intrusive, but available, and for more than 'where are the towels?" If you want the guidance, she'll be there and you'll love her for it.
The house is a vacation wonder. It has two very independent units. The upstairs has three bedrooms and two bathrooms. (We used it for a couple and two adult children, but it could easily sleep six). The master bedroom has a step in shower. The other two bedrooms shre a bath. The kitchen/dining room/living room are one large area that looks over the ocean. It has a medium-size deck (two lounge chairs and a table with four chairs for afternoon cocktails). It is all just the definition of relaxing.
The downstairs is basically a separate one bedroom apartment with a small kitchen. We had a couple staying there. They loved it. It is separate enough if someone wants privacy. It is joined by the outdoor stairs. The outdoor shower fills out the structure.
It also has a small pool and hot tub, which we didn't use much with the ocean mere steps away.
The area has plenty to offer, even in Covid times. Delivery from most of the restaurants is available, or a short drive to pick up. It is a bit of a hike to walk to any of the stores/restaurants, but a bicycle would be easy. You can pick from many types of food, and we were frequent visitors to coffee stores and the bakery.
If you are looking for relaxing, ocean, and a lot less hectic than the big city, this is the right place.
