About the host
Hosted by Paul Staughton
Hello, my name is Paul. I’m originally from Canada but spent many years in southern California. I enjoy getting out of town hiking and enjoying nature.
Why they chose this property
I bought this cabin about four years ago to enjoy with my family. A couple years ago I decided to share with others as well. It’s a very special place. I’m sure you’ll love it.
What makes this property unique
The property is located on a private road at the end of a cul-de-sac. It has 10 sides which I believe resembles a lighthouse. We created a lighthouse theme inside for fun.
