Casa Verde looks lovely, and so does El Cardonal.....is El Cardonal's accomodations air conditioned??? What about the Cabo Pulmo area, is it strictly camping?

Could anyone here possibly know of maybe a house rental somewhere coastal?? East Cape or Todos Santos area?

MANY THANKS!

Those tee pees at Casa Verde look fun. I'd stay there a night with my son just for the novelty of it.

I'll bet those teepee's have had their share of "peace pipes" passed around in them. If you catch my drift.:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Takes me back to Mendocino County in the 70's.:lol::lol::lol:

A drive up into the Sierra La Laguna... One road is between San Antonio and San Bartolo, signed San Antonio de la Sierra... It passes near the oldest mining center in Baja (Real de Santa Ana) and climbs up to a grove of Guerivo trees... here mixed in with palms:



On the San Antonio de la Sierra road, giant 'guerivo' trees are encountered (among palms) near 3,000 feet ASL. Its hard wood is used to make furniture and the first ship in (Baja) California. Built in 1719 by Padre Ugarte was the 'Triunfo de la Cruz'.This site is just west of Los Barriles!
