If I had to sum up my stay here in one word, it would be PERFECTION.
Christie and her husband, Doug, were the most warm and welcoming hosts I have ever dealt with. They truly care about their guests and want to ensure an ideal stay.
I travel every 8-10 weeks from Michigan to California with my young son. My top priority is finding a place to stay that I feel safe and comfortable - that is exactly how I felt here.
Every single thing in this home was clean, and exactly as described. The pool was HEAVENLY! Tons of toys and floats - my son and I spent two fun afternoons in that pool and it was a dream. Ample outdoor space for seating and play, which includes the outdoor jenga and cornhole, a grill, and a fire pit ready for some yummy s’mores to be cooked on.
Inside the home, you get everything you see in the photos. It was the most well stocked AirBNB I have ever stayed in - genuinely like being at home. Plenty of back-up necessities like toilet paper, towels, utensils and cookware.
This is the first time I’ve stayed in a home while in California (visit #10 in the past two years for me and my kiddo) that I did not see a single bug in the home. No ants, no drain flies, not even a dust bunny in sight! I felt completely at ease while staying at this beautiful home that has been in their family for generations. You could feel the love that home was built with.
Every piece of furniture was comfortable, especially the beds and pillows! If you travel, you know what a rarity that is. I slept so well.
There were remote controlled ceiling fans, and air conditioning that really pushed! It only took a few minutes to cool down (hey, I’m from Michigan, I can’t help but like it a little chilly.)
The neighborhood was so, so quiet. I think I heard a cat meow once. I saw plenty of families with the children biking down the street or going for a walk to the nearby park. Again, it felt like home!
There was literally so much to do at this home that my son and I, for the first time in our travels here, didn’t go visit an attraction or beach. Between the plethora of board games, the pool, the TVs, and an extra special surprise that arrived the day after we did (I’ll leave that for Christie to share when she’s ready!), we felt like we were at a resort!! In fact, my son wrote a “thank you” poem for the hosts and called it exactly that, and he really wasn’t too far off.
I am exclusively staying at this AirBNB for all of our future travels if we are so lucky to come during available dates - which, I anticipate, will quickly become few and far between after anyone stays here, because I KNOW they will want to come back again.
Truly, the very best experience you’ll ever have at an AirBNB. Don’t waste another minute scrolling - this is the one you want.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart to Christie and Doug for making our travel experience so much more wonderful than it had ever been before. We’ll see you soon!
