Hi David- David was a fabulous host and I thoroughly enjoyed a very relaxing stay at his house. I stayed in the guest room (since he was there when I was) which was quite comfortable and nicely furnished and I had use of a separate bathroom. (I think he also rents out the whole house.) The backyard was a quiet gem, with a comfortable hammock, chairs for sitting in the afternoon sun, and a lovely garden with citrus trees and various plants. The kitchen was large with everything needed to prepare meals, and David even made some fresh orange juice. All in all, two refeshing nights in Southern Cal!
