Five local guides, the market pages behind them, and four shared guides from the Owner Answer Center. Every regulatory claim carries its source and the date it was read.

This market runs across two counties' worth of difference in practice: a fog-bound coast where two of the four communities are unincorporated county land, and a warm inland wine region with a city permit programme of its own. The guides below start from that split rather than from a regional label. None of them publishes a rate, an occupancy figure or a fee.
