It rains an average of about twelve days a month from November through February, though there are generally lots of warm, sunny days as well.

The space

The house is mid century modern and is lovingly decorated and lived in. We hope you'll enjoy it as much as we do! It has an on-demand water heater, recently remodeled bathroom, a high-quality stereo system, and a greenhouse in the backyard that is used as a meditation space. The kitchen is well stocked. There is no television but there is reliable and fast wi-fi. There is also a new washer and dryer. The office opens out into the backyard where there is a nice deck for relaxing. We'll be sure to leave plenty of space for you in the refrigerator, cupboards, and closets. Sally is a senior cat but she does not need any special care. She is very sweet and she does like pets and attention. She is free to go outside whenever she wants.

Guest access

It is a single story house with no stairs.
