Beach Overlook
We had such a fantastic time! It is such a peaceful and serene location that has been protected from all the noise of the modern world. Walking on the beach feels like you are the only person in the world. Craig was a great host, was proactive in his communication with me and even accommodated me when I accidentally booked the wrong location. He made the experience stress free by knowing what to expect. A couple notes we wish we had known: this is completely off grid - no cell service or WiFi at all so we recommend stopping in the town of Bandon to let your loved ones know you won’t be responding for a bit. We freaked out some family members by not doing this ahead of time. Second, bring all the bug spray. If we had had spray and some citronella candles, it would have been much more relaxing Third, the walk down to the beach is quite steep - it’s not far and is totally doable but the climb up and back was a bit of a surprise to us. Last, we stayed in the casita and loved it but there are no screens on the windows so you can’t really open them without letting in all the bugs. We wish we had thought to bring a little fan or something to move the air around in there because it gets a little stale with no AC or other ventilation. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and we would love to go again!
