Carmel is such a sweet lady and her home was perfect for a weekend getaway!! Our family had a great time at the house during one of the worst heat waves in LA's history. Hermosa Beach was just 2 blocks away and this home is walking distance to tons of restaurants and stores so even though you have to find parking on the street we never had to move the car for anything all weekend. Carmel had even bought us some food for the weekend in case we needed anything on short notice. Thanks gain Carmel for allowing our family to have a wonderful time at your beautiful beach house!!
