This stay was exactly what we were looking for. A peaceful location but with easy access to Los Angeles.
Our stay was during the stormy weather in 2023, and the heating worked well when it was just below freezing outside. Julia was great and 100% responsive and came round to check on the house when we had huge amount of rain and hail battering the roof and windows. This is very unlikely to be something to worry about again.
The ranch is amazing if you're looking for that sort of stay, the description doesn't hide anything. Maybe we'll return one summer sometime to properly enjoy it.
Everyone seems very excited about the road up to the house. It's basically a fairly narrow farm/country road like Europe/UK, the surprising thing is that it's so near central Los Angeles, just drive carefully. It would be challenging in a Ferrari/Lotus/other low sports car.
