The view and location truly can’t be beat — it was close to the freeway, so nothing felt too far away, and it was so peaceful we even saw two hawks soaring low to the deck. The pool isn’t heated, so it was too cold for a dip in late November, but it looked beautiful. The kitchen was well-stocked, but the ovens are a bit small, so be aware if you have major cooking plans! We also had a lot of problems with the doors — most importantly, the front door, which sometimes took minutes to get aligned so you could twist the deadbolt shut. That said, Michael was very responsive and helpful (he said he’d send someone to check out the door!), and my family was overall thrilled with our Thanksgiving stay.
