made to keep the inventory as advertised. A difference in amenities

Electricity is limited in the trailers, and the use of several electric
items at the same time (e.g. toaster, heater and hair dryer) will most

trailers! Use only one appliance at the time.
The trailers are equipped with FANS but no AC units (the climate in Big
Sur rarely asks for air conditioning J)
