Staying at The Dock was a delight. It was perfect for our family of four with two teenagers. Holly is easy and accommodating. Communication is fast and problem solving. The location is convenient to SoCal adventuring. We were comfortable and lacked nothing for our stay. We will happily stay here again for future trips.
