From the moment we arrived to find a welcome gift of oranges & lemons from the trees outside to the moment we left, saying our goodbyes and thank yous for our amazing 2-month stay, we felt like the luckiest couple in the world for having found this special place & host. My husband & I drove cross-country with our mini-Goldendoodle to live the “snow bird” life for the first time. From the get-go, parking was a breeze. The neighborhood is quiet, full of families, & feels very safe. Dogs being walked & babies being strolled. Gordon has anticipated his guests’ every need, from black-out shades in the bedroom to the fully-equipped kitchen to the peaceful backyard garden. He has laundry machines, but I found it easier to use a nearby laundromat to do multiple loads at once. There are shops & places to eat within walking distance & a Thurs. farmer’s market. Many restaurants in nearby Culver City. The apartment is so comfy/cozy - I cried when we had to leave. Already, I can’t wait to go back
