In search of a respite from the city and the routine of the pandemic’s new normal, I stumbled upon Maria’s and Jason’s Airbnb. Nestled in the canyons, the modern and tastefully decorated house is perfect for what we were looking for. We were transported into nature, without really being off-the-grid. We heard birds chirping and saw bunnies hopping around while conveniently being just minutes away from all the comforts of civilization.
Maria and Jason have immaculately designed the house to the T, all the little details are placed there to accommodate for the guests’ pleasure on their stay there. We arrived late and the lighted pathway to the house makes it magical. Once in the house, we felt like we just walked into those featured spaces in Dwell magazine.
The place is sparkling clean which is very important in the current times. Loved the heated bathroom floor, the plush bedding plus the very fast WIFI which really helped since we were still doing distance learning and working from home. I read in the reviews that there was a Nespresso machine and brought my own pods but lo and behold, even the pods were provided! It’s the little things like such that left a lasting impression on me.
We were lucky to meet the host family and they are the nicest and friendliest people. They are very respectful of the space boundaries due to COVID. They even introduced us to their pet chicken and my son had a fun time engaging with the bird every morning.
The surrounding area itself is wonderful too. The host left a file with all the information you’ll need. We managed a hike around the loop. It’s surprisingly easy and enjoyable. We also explored local restaurants - pro tip: Try the Super Greens pizza at Endless Color!
We spent three nights there and left the place feeling reenergized but wanting more. We are thinking of booking the place again in the near future. You will be missing out a lot if you don’t stay here!
