. . .Was at Punta Sanfrancisquito for 3 nites last week until the cows came & broke the water line so we headed out. Juan, Mingo & Rosa there & friendly & helpful as ever to us. No hot water but did not need hot as it was pleasant from showerhead. Food was good with Rosa & Mingo in the kitchen ( we took in some toms, onions, peppers, lettuce & avas etc. as we were unsure of produce status there ). One plane there out of Torrance with 3 avid spear fisherguys. Some dirtbaggers would ride in every day for food & gas. If one wishes to contact them there is no longer a satphone but try rosa.arce.aguilar@hotmail.com OR sanfrancisquito@hotmail.com . . .I know some people are fond of knocking the place & yes it is not as before but the solituide & scenery is SPECTACULAR!!! Generator was running so lotsa cold beer / soda / water. . . Beach was full of depressions from where turtles were laying eggs, but it looks like the coyotes were doing a good job of eating the eggs, unfortunately. . . Really a good time there. . . Wow, just had a earthquake jolt down here!!!!

Awesome report. I'm headed south of San Felipe and beyond over thanksgiving and contemplated making that place my turn around point. I've heard awesome things about the place.

. . .Probably MY favorite place in Baja; do not expect much other than a place to sleep & food & cold beer & you will be happy; Usually fly in & have never ever had a bad moment in 20 years there; good place to fish, hike, read, nap, relax. They do have internet there but I never tried it; also at times TV. It is Spartan, but to me it is delightful Spartan!!!!!

Outstanding!!!--------always one of my favorite places----------good to hear good things about the "resort". Camped there several years ago at the "resort" campground, for a week-----we were the only campers--------soooo relaxing sitting high on the beautiful beach and gazing out to sea------the showers were great to have, too..

... While driving into my Favorite Baja place, I was getting ready to write my name in the sand for all eternity with some used beer. And, along comes Mingo & the water truck, so, we quickly decided to make some more used beer; I have NEVER had a bad moment there, only MEMORABLE times... Not a place for pansies...
