The home was fantastic. It was exactly what we expected and Cathy and Tom were very accommodating to some last minute emergency requests we had. It has a wonderful vibe. Very comfortable but still stylish and west coast-y, a fantastic espresso maker (bonus!) and the kitchen is fully stocked with utensils and gourmet cook books. This home is wonderful for a family vacation (or 2) with lots of shared space and enough space to get away for quiet moment when we needed one. We loved the yard and the deck (which has seriously gorgeous flower boxes) was fantastic for spending evenings chatting with friends and bbqing. It also has enough room for 2 yoga mats if you like to practice outside like we do and if you move the large outdoor table over (and the house has yoga mats provided!) Parks, groceries, cafes and everything near by. The neighborhood is safe and quiet, any neighbors we saw were friendly, and we will definitely stay here again! Thanks again Cathy and Tom!
