The good news is that the sun porch is lovely to sit and look out over the ocean, the patio is great for sitting, playing cornhole or using the grill, and it is a very short walk to get to the trail that goes along the bluffs from Goat Rock to Wrights Beach. The bad news is, first, that the bathroom is attached to the one bedroom in the house (not a separate room) so that if there are more than 2 people in the house, they will be walking through the one bedroom to get to the bathroom. Secondly, the lack of stove and oven, while not insurmountable (given a convection oven/microwave, and portable electric burners) is something you need to plan for if you plan to cook your own meals. We certainly enjoyed our long weekend in the house; we just had to adapt to the "quirks" first.
