Richard is a great host- very nice and helpful but also out of the way and gives you privacy. I loved the cottage, it was so cute inside and comfortable. It’s rare to see such a cute craftsmen in so cal, and this one is so cool. The smart TV was great for listening to music and watching Netflix, and the pool was awesome. The best part of this place was the porch tucked behind a beautiful succulent garden. I had a great stay here, hope to come back in the future!
