                                 -
I just purchased the "Bed and Breakfast U.S.A." ("Bed  &  Breakfast
USA,  A  guide  to  Tourist Homes and Guest Houses, by Betty Revits
Rundback and Nancy Kramer, Tourist House Association of America, E.
P.  Dutton,  Inc.,  New  York)  guide that covers all 50 states and
Canada.  It lists B&Bs by state, and within state, by region.  Each
B&B  is  given a brief description ranging from the physical layout
to prices to smoking, pet, and children policies of the B&B listed.
I  have  made  two bookings from it thus far, but have not actually
been to the B&B facilities described therein, so I  cannot  testify
to the guide's accuracy.

It also lists regional centralized B&B booking agencies,  if  there
are  any  for  the  area  of interest.  For California, the central
agency is: Hospitality Plus, PO Box 388, San  Juan  Capistrano,  CA
92693 (714)-496-7050. From the guide (without permission), page 55:
"Deborah's computerized service  has  access  to  over  1,000  B&Bs
throughout  California and in other states.  Her specialty is plan-
ning complete coastal, mountain, and desert tours, staying at  B&Bs
all  the way.  Visit Yosemite where your host will lend you a bike;
or stay in Honolulu, one  block  from  the  beach,  with  a  third-
generation  Hawaiian  family.   No  matter  what  your price range,
special attention will be given to your needs."
