If you like unconventional lodging while you travel you might fall in love with Nick's Cove, a small settlement composed of buildings built mainly in the 1930s, located on Highway 1 in California's Tomales Bay. The cabins have existed in this location for over 70 years. Each one has its own distinct character and furnishings, some are right on the water while others have a water or creek view. The rental cabins represent a part of California's traveling past. San Francisco restaurant designer Pat Kuleto recently refurbished the cabins giving them a luxe edge with touches like Frette linens and marble bathrooms. The prices vary. The cabin shown here, Big Rock, has a wood-burning stove, a separate master suite and a copper soaking tub. Rates range from $495 to $595. Other cabins are less expensive. The complex also includes the Nick's Cove restaurant where you can have a fabulous seafood meal.

I couldn't afford to stay there for an hour. I like places that are under $79 and offer free HBO.

Wrecked--the first time I stumbled across this place a person was attempting to shoo squatting geese off the front porch with a broom. It was an old, moosehead-on-the-wall sort of rundown joint that served a passable cheesebuger for under 10 bucks.
I see now it's become a dining experience complete with valet parking, soft lighting, a hugely expensive menu and accomodations- hey, what a novel idea for the bay area. Just what we need, more cooks who think they're artists--God, why do people insist on destroying what can't be replaced with clones of everything else out there? Save yourself the trip. Shoulda been there several years ago.......
