"We had a great time with our three dogs at Lorin's place. I can't recommend it enough if you are looking for a very quiet getaway with spectacular ocean views, with the added bonus of your own personal beach just down the street (there was literally no one else there every time we went -- could let our dogs roam free!). We hope to come back someday!!"
