5.0 out of 5 stars If you like finding quaint out of the way cabins....., March 8, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Foghorn Outdoors: Southern California Cabins and Cottages (Paperback)

Ann Marie Brown's book is beautifully written. It not only gives reviews of quaint out of the way cabins, but is sprinkled with a lot of charming personal observations. Her book is just out, and her review of the one place we stayed at was 'dead on". I would have never found this place without her book!
