The weather and swell forecast were both constantly changing and the competition continued to go on hold while we waited for weather and wind to clear the area. We were unsure of how long we would be there, and our check out date was likely to change.

"The owner was so friendly and accommodating! We needed to leave a day early due to storms headed our way and he was happy to refund us our last night.
