Great spot to stop for lunch

I saw a picture of this spot on Instagram and wanted to see it in person! From other directions online, we were told to go down the path across from Coombs Candy Store; well we turned around twice until we finally pulled into the shoulder on the side of the highway across from the candy store and saw "Hole in Wall" crudely carved into the road barrier right above a steep sand path. We left our car parked on the side of the highway (and it seems like a lot of people do this). Once we started along the trail, it was actually fairly easy to navigate and there were other signs to guide us. Took only about 10-15 minutes before we reached the Hole in the Wall, which is a beautiful spot. Very quiet and peaceful. Definitely worth the struggle to find the path!
