The house is in good condition and the kitchen is well stocked with everything you might need. There are plenty of linens and towels. The grill works great, too. Just a few notes though, you are not allowed to use the wood burning stove which was a disappointment to us as we love to have fires and it was part of why I chose this house. I might take that picture out of the advert since it is misleading. Also, you CAN walk to the beach but it is all on paved roads including a short jaunt on the 101. We are avid hikers and chose to drive down, for whatever that is worth. Close to Point Arena and some nice coastal hiking there as well as a decent market, surf, and a few restaurants.
