My family and I stayed at this house on the Venice Canals for 4 nights and had a great time. The house is just as beautiful and clean as the pictures portrayed – if not more beautiful. Charlie was an EXCELLENT host and was responsive to our every need during our stay. Charlie was more than happy to accept items that we had delivered to the house prior to our arrival, and even went as far as to assemble the items so that they would be ready for us when we arrived.
The house was within walking distance of the strand on Venice Beach and we enjoyed walking there during the day to see the beach, shops, restaurants and street performers. We also rented a car and drove to other areas of LA such as Beverley Hills and Hollywood. Santa Monica was also a short distance away via bicycle, but might have been too far to walk to. Venice Beach is an eclectic and diverse area, great for people watching.
