Perfect spot if you prefer a cozier bed and breakfast type experience than a flashy big box hotel. Wonderful breakfast. We sleep great! Super central to a ton of restaurants and like 5-7 minute walk to the ocean

This place was so cute and perfectly appointed, but most importantly Christian and Audri were the best hosts ever! They helped arrange transportation to wine country, art tours in Valpo, gave us details on how to best visit the sand dunes and made reservations at several amazing restaurants. Breakfast daily, clean, beautiful garden area in a quiet and convenient area - Just blocks from the beach!
