About the host
Hosted by John Henry
I am John Henry and I live next door in the tiny house with my son Mac (teen). We are both avid surfers and mountain bikers. We love Half Moon Bay and our community. We are very close with our neighbors and value our friendships. We also love hosting and sharing the abundance Half Moon Bay has to offer. We will do our best to make sure you enjoy your stay.
Why they chose this property
This house is in walking distance from the harbor, a gourmet grocery store, Michelin star restaurant, fresh seafood, live music, surfers beach, shopping, miles and miles of coastal trail, and endless hiking right outside your door. If you don't want to do any of this, you can still enjoy stunning views from the comfort of our home.
