Carin's home in Woodland Hills is wonderfully secluded setting - up a winding driveway; lush landscaping buffers the house and yard from neighbors. The house is very comfortable. The main living spaces are shared - living, dining and entry - but the guest space upstairs is nicely separated from Carin's office and bedroom on the lower level. Outdoor spaces are also very nice. A shaded patio off other kitchen and the pool on the lower level. Both lovely places to relax and soak up the ambience of the surrounding hills. The room and bed were very comfortable.
Carin is a generous and accommodating host. She was always readily available when needed but most of the time I felt I had her lovely house all to myself.
I was drawn to this neighborhood for its proximity to the Santa Monica Mountains for a road bicycling vacation. Carin's house is perfectly located for easy access to Mulholland Drive and Old Topanga Road and the various challenging hill climbs in the area.
