What a wonderful beach cottage! Neighbors were warm and cheerful. We had beverages at the beach every evening with the whole neiborhood to watch the fantasic sunset. Our kids played with other children without us worrying. Uncrowned beach with families playing and enjoying ventura's beautiful ocean. I thought I was in Hawaii without the tourists. We thank you and will see you next year. Bill & Kim
