High walkability!

It's likely my availability will be minimal, so it is best to dialogue before you arrive. I am available by phone almost always and am offline from Friday afternoon to Saturday night weekly and not available by phone or email then. ( emergency phone numbers are listed in the information book in the unlikely event they are needed.)
If you like to walk and have time, there is ample opportunity. Uber and Lyft typically arrive quickly and can provide transportation, and bus stops are a block away.

The beach bungalow is surrounded by an organic vegetable garden and lush plants. You will likely see birds and squirrels during your stay and occasionally a raccoon or even a possum.
The neighborhood is magic. It is a wonderful place to explore and relax after a day of work. 22-mile-long bike path on the beach, nearby adventures you can walk to, and spending time with the peaceful Pacific is a joy. 420 friendly.
