We could not have improved this experience in any way. Peter's house and furnishings are beautiful in a very So-Cal style, so you get a sense of place, and it's sparkling clean. The layout fit our 6-person, 3- generation family perfectly; we seniors were delighted to take the bedroom with adjoining bath. As many others have noted, the views are truly spectacular, and there are some nice hilly walks or runs right outside the door. We enjoyed Peter's books as well as big TV. Fortunately the house has a good heating system because we stayed there during an unusual cold snap. Peter was not in town at the time we stayed there, but was readily available and always so friendly. Highly recommended if you need a house of this size in L.A.
