We ended up staying at Sharin's place for a total of 3 nights, and I only with I had more vacation time to spend a whole month! The warm welcome we received from Sharin's friend Franki was the kickoff to a wonderful weekend. Ever so helpful and accomodating, both Sharin and Franki were easily accessible for any questions we had. This house sits on top of beautiful hill with amazing views of LA--daytime and nightime views are equally stunning. With the various gardens, it's almost like being in a country setting, but in the city. No amount of photos will ever do justice for this house--spacious; welcoming; warm...just a few attributes. We hope to make a repeat visit. Thanks again Sharin & Franki!
