Lovely place for a family gathering in the Santa Monica Mountains!
The house and grounds are incredible. If you are from a more urban environment it may take you a day to settle in, but once you do you’ll never want to leave.

You are definitely in the mountains so I would suggest that you plan on making a trip to the grocery store when you first arrive; Woodland Hills is a short trip by car. If you are going to use delivery services such as postmates, car services, etc, make sure that the drivers are informed that they may not have phone service in the mountains.
We didn’t have any children in our group, but those who do should keep in mind that the interior of the home can best be described as carefully curated with delicate antiques, and the immaculate gardens should be respected as well.
Our hosts Alex and Jill were very accommodating and communicative. We personally didn’t have any issues with them checking in with us, as we understood the importance of insuring guests are well informed and aligned with keeping the property sound.
We had the time of our lives there and it will be in our most cherished of memories. We hope to return someday to reminisce in paradise.
Thank you Alex and Jill!
