We are frequently asked a number of questions when we receive phone calls. Here are the questions and answers !
Do we serve breakfast? No, we quit cooking and give guests the kitchen to use at anytime. We have our own residence behind the Guest House.
Are linen and towels provided? Yes.
Are we on the beach? The
ocean front is protected by the National Park Service and is a
pristine, natural beach. The village surrounds Silver Lake Harbor and is
about 1 1/ 2 miles from the first beach access.
Can you walk to the beach, restaurants and shops? You
can walk to the restaurants and shops easily, or rent a bicycle. You
may prefer to drive to the beach with all your beach gear and save your
energy for long walks in the surf.
Is the Guest House at the Lighthouse? No, we are around the corner from the Lighthouse on a quiet side street, near the harbor and one block away from the main road.
Check in and check out time? Check in anytime after 2 PM and check out by noon.
Payment Options? Just checks and cash, no credit cards accepted.
For previous guests, we now have air conditioning and the rooster has moved.
