Where do I begin?! Being away from home for two weeks during my doctoral residency meant that I needed essential amenities to juggle a lot of school stress--and this sweet "home away from home" was more than I could have asked for! I met Michael upon check-in and knew he would be a great host, but left feeling like I had made a forever friend...This is truly a special place, an oasis of beauty and peace--with the nicest family in CA, who tend to each and every detail as if you're family. (Also--for folks without transport, the Uber service was fairly quick and there is both a grocery store and Starbucks within walking distance--this cottage is located in an awesome and safe neighborhood.) Hoping I can return in two years to celebrate my graduation with friends around the pool/patio in this magical place, as there could be no better setting in LA!! Thanks for all, Michael & Laura!
