We loved staying at The Lookout. The cottage is adorable and clean and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook and stay-in. Really enjoyed walking down to the store, restaurant and beach, hiking, playing card games, and just gazing at the water from the deck! It was the first time our English Lab, Chuck, had been on a beach. So fun!

We spent almost two weeks enjoying this as our home away from home. Cozy, well-appointed, and that view! The perfect place to rest and unwind in that classic Dillon Beach way - long walks on the beach, a few short drives to vineyards or a hike in the redwoods, and hours on the back deck watching the waves. Perfect.
